Stick around and discuss the game as

it happens in the comments section.
Even though Moose got out of that jam in the first, I just know he's about two pitches away from getting killed.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness what a play by Cano... and I know what you mean about Moose, I'm never confident with him on the mound.
ReplyDeletesee what I mean... everything is being hit hard.
ReplyDeleteWhen are people going to learn you never slide into first????? Damn it Gonzalez.
ReplyDeleteJohnny Damon is utterly useless.
ReplyDeleteHey man,
ReplyDeleteYea Damon has become this team's weakest link. How many times do we have to watch him pop out with 2 out and a runner in scoring position?
I agree with you guys about Damon, he's become an automatic out.
ReplyDeleteSo much for that nice forecast.
ReplyDeleteI fucking hate manny so much.
ReplyDeleteNeither of those two pitches to Cano were strikes. The ump called that same pitch a ball on the first pitch of the AB.
ReplyDeleteYou're right. The umps have been horrible all year, why would it stop now?
ReplyDeleteTrue.
ReplyDeleteYes, great baseball right there from the Yanks. Small ball works again... I think they're listening to you Greg.
ReplyDeleteGotta love the small ball..... Yanks take 2-1 lead now on the wild pitch, great base running by Gonzalez.
ReplyDeleteHow the heck does Girardi let him pitch to Manny? What a moron!
ReplyDeleteWow, that was the most brain dead move I've seen in a long time. Joe Torre would have walked Manny there, I know that.
ReplyDeleteI agree, Torre walks him there.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen something that stupid. Manny had already hit a HR, you don't let him beat you twice. Girardi is a moron.
ReplyDeleteWay to go Giambi, way to bang one right into the shift.
ReplyDeleteI'm still shocked Girardi let him pitch to Manny. It makes no sense, none at all.
ReplyDeleteWTF? They're going to delay the game NOW?!?!?! When the Yankees have 2 on and 2 out? This is just unfair, it's not even raining hard.
ReplyDeleteThis is fucking bullshit. MLB and the Red Sox working together again to screw the Yankees.
ReplyDeleteJoe Buck just said the rain almost stopped. If they had just kept playing, everything would have been fine.
Sterling and Waldman even said the rain had stopped before the tarp was even completely on the field. This is such crap.
ReplyDeleteSo convenient for the Red Sox....Fox said that Papelbon had just gotten out of a long toss and had only threw a few pitches in the bullpen....that is so messed up!
ReplyDeleteJoe Buck just said the heavy rains are about 30 mins away? Wow. This game could already be over by now, and they're gonna wait another half hour. This is just wrong.
ReplyDeleteThis game could be over by now.
ReplyDeleteLET THEM PLAY
ReplyDeleteLET THEM PLAY
LET THEM PLAY
they let them play....eventually....and papelbon dominated =(
ReplyDeleteThis game is on Joe Girardi.
ReplyDeleteI agree completely, I can't see how anyone can't.
