Would have put money on either Tex or A-Rod driving Swish in there. Would have lost.
um WHY is the game blacked out on YESnetwork? total BS... thank god season is almost over, seems like every sat day game is blacked out unless its on fox & we're playing the mets or red sox
No idea why it would be blacked out. That's very strange.
He was safe there; we caught a break. Really should have put this guy Cecil away by now.
Thank you Mark... Yanks regain a 3-2 lead.
Can't afford to have Hairston and Hinske in the same lineup. Hinske is not a right fielder. Don't like the way this game is going; we've left too many on base already.
This is one of those typical yankee games. Where they really could of roughed up the starting pitcher but didn't.
Oh well the toronto bullpen is brutal yanks will tack on a ton of runs off them.
The hitters must really love this road trip. Besides Halladay the pitching the yanks have faced at baltimore and in toronto are pretty bad.
Clutch RBI single by A-Rod to extend the Yanks lead to 4-2.
damit jorge, way to play into there hands with the DP, the ball was only way outside, idiot. leaving too many men on base,
Cano needs to be moved up in the order, once we have the division wrapped up, i'd like to see batting order of jeter, damon, cano, tex, arod. for a game or 2, I really think cano can get better & if he got better pitches to hit infront of tex & arod, watch out?
Very frustrating game today.
BALLGAME OVER!! YANKEES WIN!! THAAAAAAAAAAAAA YANKEES WIN!!
6-4, oh yeah!
Joe looks like he's pumped. Well, who shouldn't be? We're the best team in baseball!
Nice win.
Hey YB, check your email.
Boston is losing 4-0 in the bottom of the 6th.
