Boston losing 2-0 in the first.... WOO HOO!
A nice loss for the red sox will take them out of the wild card. Nice to see them play a series in texas at a time like this.
Hey Greg A Rod isn't in the starting line up anymore. He's a late scratch with back spasms.
Why was Flaherty complaining last night that he thought Sabathia should of been out of that game by the 7th.
Flaherty needs to get a clue who did he want Girardi to use. Robertson worked two days in a row and threw 26 pitches the day before. Aceves worked 4 innings his last apperance. Gaudin threw 40 plus pitches the day before. Coke pitched two days in a row. Unless he wanted to see Hughes in a blowout. I dont think the yanks had much options. I'm sure Girardi didn't even want to really use Bruney in that situation but he was really the only option.
Mitre kills the bullpen I dont care that he even pitches badly but he needs to start pitching 6-7 innings. Ace is turning into Mitre caddy.
Thanks Emmmanuel.
Watching the pregame, god enough of hearing about these Joba rules. Its not rocket science they are going to skip some of Joba starts so he doesn't hit the innings limit so he can start in the postseason.
The media needs to stop getting carried away with this nonsense.
Do you guys know Frank Caliendo? There's this funny video of him making fun of John Madden on Mad TV and I wanted to share it with you guys.

lol Liam!
Let's hope that Andy has another goodstart tonight. I want to be 30 games over .500.
Shit. That fat sack of crap hit a 2 run HR to tie it up.
It's now 3-2 Rangers!!!!
Come on Andy...get out of this.
Andy looks like crap early on.
we did not need a crap start from Andy.
He never pitches well in Seattle.
Looks like we're gonna have to score a shitload of runs again.
Not too bad considering the start.
good damage control. now lets score.
Time for a replay review.
That's really close. A leadoff double is good too as a worst case scenario. Nice knock by Jorge.
That's a fuckin HR we better not get screwed
SHIT!
They made the right call. Can't complain. Swisher just has to get the run in.
Michael Young sac-fly, 4-2 Rangers!
Way to go Jerry!
That was a huge break for the Yanks.
True, anon, it was. Alright they got a run back, now Pettitte needs to settle down and throw up some zeros.
The look Hairston gave Jeter was classic. ROFL
That shit was hilarious.
Texas is in the process of blowing the game.
4-3, 2 on no outs top of the ninth.
Buccholz pinch ran for Varitek, Pedroria doubles and he still couldn't score from second. LOL
is anyone watching the texas boston game, the last play was hilarious , terrible call on buckholtz and francona, he had buckholtz run for varitek, pedroia just hit a double off the left field wall, ellsbury was about 2 feet behind buckhotlz, with a good throw in, buckholtz tried to slide into home, he only dove about 10 feet too soon, kinda like wesley snipes in major league, wasn't even close
and boston just took the lead on a double by vic martinez, now up 5-4
Texas blew the lead. They suck.
on a full count pitch none the less, damit
Francisco blows.
That sucks. Yanks gotta win now.
Texas is now getting their asses kicked. 8-4. They suck.
we'll take that, error or hit, don't care,
i was thinking we should have saved some of lastnights runs for tonight,
There's no such thing as saving runs. It's all about the pitcher.
Go Andy!!!
He's settled down nicely. Pretty impressive considering his struggles early.
great inning by andy but he's already at 96 pitches...
come on tex, damit, please be more patient, sorry if you've already said, but when are we getting AROD back, hasn't kate hudson kissed his boo boo yet..
^^^^^^^^^^^
A Rod hasn't given her her weekly pounding that's why he's not feeling good right now and dammit Posada keeps striking out on the same damn curveball in the same location.
hey guys, i Hate how they don't show the god damn people who run on the field lol
That bothers me too. It would be really funny. I think they show that stuff in Europe is someone runs on to the "pitch" during soccer matches.
speaking of soccer, landan donavan has the swine flu, after playing in mexico, ,,,,, come on hughes, damit,
and another full count, come on damit
Hughes flirts with disaster but gets out of it.
MVP! MVP! MVP!
that was beautiful
You ain't kidding! Tex is the man!!!
This is the good Tex, the other Tex blows.
swish needed that, he's been struggling, this commercial kills me, i'd start whaling on that "wicked" guy..
2 run lead, MO coming in, & 7,8,9 hitters for M's coming up,
Lets go MO
I saw that about Donavan, it's bad enough the refs screwed them and they lost, but now he has to come back with swine flu. Not the best trip to Mexico.
And that's the ballgame. Yanks win 4-2 and are now 30 games over .500.
Nice win for the Yanks tonight.
And baseball's best get even better.
Another good win
46 games left, 27 wins to 100, how many games can this team win...???
