Giambi 5th again? Why?
How bad does he have to do to be moved down in the order?
Girardi is too damn stubborn for his own good.
Both Sox lost, Yanks can move to within 5 with a win. Hey, it's a start.
Come on Carl!
This has wasted opportunity written all over it.
Hahahaha, isn't it fitting that the day I decide to bring up Giambi's struggles, he starts the night going 2-for-2 with a homer and 3 RBI?
Whoa, a 1-2-3 inning for Carla.
Pudge makes that play a few years ago.
Yea Carla! Strikes out the side.
DAMN IT ROBBIE! GET YOUR HEAD IN THE DAMN GAME.
No harm no foul anon.
Good job by Pavano. 5 IP, 3 ER, not too bad, I'll take it.
hey.. close games the past two days... looks like the orioles and yanks are evenly matched
not really jonny, they just play the Yankees tuff. the orioles stink.
I know...I just mean that the yankees should be playing better this season...
That's for sure.
Yea Matsui, big hit.
The was a huge insurance run. They could use a couple more. Hey Jon, whats up?
Nm just downloading some apps for my iPhone... there are some pretty cool programs for it... did you play softball today?
i'd play tomorrow...
I think so.
"Hahahaha, isn't it fitting that the day I decide to bring up Giambi's struggles, he starts the night going 2-for-2 with a homer and 3 RBI?"
The exception doesn't disprove the rule. It proves it. One example of Giambi doing well doesn't make up for all his garbage and men LOB. He's been killing us.
he has taken too many steroids his muscles are starting to atrophy
here is our star player
I totally agree that it doesn't change the fact he's been terrible.
Nice win, goodnight folks, thanks for the comments.
