Another triple for Teix!!! 1-0 Yanks!
Man, Teix last had a triple 2 years ago and now he has 3 this week.
It's a crazy game this baseball.
Sure is.
Swish pops up, Yanks strand 2.
We also had a chance to score a few runs in the 1st last night and didn't take it. Hope history doesn't repeat itself as we don't want to lose this one with CC on the mound.
Yep.
Yet another man left at 3rd with less than 2 outs. Thats 2 for those keeping track at home...
What was the biggest reason we lost last night? Not just Mo, but the fact that we let this team stay in the game by failing to tack on. We're just not firing on all cylinders at the moment.
True, hopefully CC can throw a gem.
Huh, did you hear? Brian Bruney switched his uniform # from 38 to 99. Maybe since it worked for Manny it will work for him.
With baseball players you never know. These little, seemingly meaningless things, can make a huge difference just because it changes their thinking.
True.
Alright, I'm gonna hit the hay now. I'll hear about the rest of the game tomorrow.
Later.
Night YB.
Reminds me of the old joke about the guy rowing on the lake. The boatkeeper shouts out on the megaphone: "Come in No. 99, your time's up." No response. A few minutes later, he says: "No. 66, are you in trouble?" Let's hope it helps the Sultan turn his season upside down. I know...it's not that funny.
Matsui makes it 2-0 Yanks with his 26th homer of the season.
Way to go Matsui :D!!!!
Way to go Matsui :D!!!!
Nice! Tex gives the Yanks some breathing room with a three-run bomb.
That's more like the Yankees we've come to love and know! Now shut'em down for another 3 please CC.
How's it going all?
Nice to see the Yanks come back and put a hurting on Seattle so far after a tough loss.
Hey CF, I'm good, you?
Yea, very good to see them playing a solid game after yesterday's loss. We probably shouldn't be surprised. They've done it all year.
It hit him in the chest. Glad that missed his hand and head.
I hope CC is okay. That was scary.
Ohhhhh what a play by Teixeira.... CC is one tough dude. He just took a 100 MPH fastball off the chest. You can tell how much pain he's in, but he still made his pitches.
Ok, who else soiled themselves when CC got hit? LOL
Man that could have been tragic!
I'm doing really well. It's my oldest kids 21st birthday and he's in the city... watching the game and getting plastered. LOL
Oh nice, congrats!
Only 18 1/2 years till my next kid hits 21.
I like to space them. LOL
Here is a pic of me and my 2 boys at yankee Stadium. It was my youngest Stephen's first time at the Stadium.

CC is a beast.
aw such a cute kid...hahahaha uncle phil.
New number, same crappy arm.
Hahahah Tex looks pissed at himself for hitting that out. What a game for Tex.
ain't that the truth! Actually he has a great arm... just doesn't know how to control it.
Beltre swung at that pitch and it was up in his eyes. Good hitters won't swing at that crap and Bruney didn't mean to throw it there.
Wow... Tex just jacked another one! One from each side of the plate!
Damn he's good!
Yeah, he was a double away from the cycle.
Yay!!!
Nice win for the Yanks tonight. Co-players of the game: CC Sabathia and Mark Teixeira.
The magic number for the AL East drops to single digits and for the post season magic number is now just 2.
I personally hope they only acknowledge the fact that they make the post season and then celebrate a little when they win the east.
