Just heard on MLBN that Yankees are going to sign Hideki Matsui. . .

to a one day contract, so he can retire as a Yankee. Cool.

2 Chris   ~  Apr 29, 2013 5:42 pm

Cool. Cool. Cool.

3 RIYank   ~  Apr 29, 2013 5:52 pm

Excellent.
Great gif, by the way, Alex.

Has everyone seen this Dickey knuckleball gif? Unbelievable. How the hell can anybody hit that, ever?

[4] Fantastic. Just watched the film Knuckleball the other night. Very intimate portrait of the careers of Dickey and Wakefield, virtually nothing on Neikro, Hough, or the inception, history, or physics of the pitch. Great movie, but not well-named.

Ugh.

6 RIYank   ~  Apr 29, 2013 6:16 pm

Fuck. Really? Dammit.

7 rbj   ~  Apr 29, 2013 6:19 pm

Shit.

8 RIYank   ~  Apr 29, 2013 6:20 pm

Holy shit.
I guess even Andy Pettitte has off days, huh?

9 RIYank   ~  Apr 29, 2013 6:20 pm

And all with two out. Two away, nobody on, cruisin'...

10 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 29, 2013 6:31 pm

Well that was nice.

11 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 29, 2013 6:38 pm

Nice rebound there by Andy.

12 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 29, 2013 6:56 pm

Are we going to get URP'd tonight?

13 rbj   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:10 pm

Oy.

14 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:11 pm

Blargh.

15 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:13 pm

Time to think, time to stink ...

16 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:16 pm

Normally a no-no, but that was the right call to dive there ...

17 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:24 pm

Why waste Andy's bullets down 5-0, bring Warren in.

18 rbj   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:27 pm

Not the pinstripers' night.

19 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:34 pm

[17] See? Bring Warren in and I can find something else to do with night!

20 Mattpat11   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:35 pm

Mama said there'd be days like these.

21 rbj   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:37 pm

Yankees feel sorry for the Astros, so they're giving Houston a pity win.

22 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:40 pm

Well, maybe it's time for Vidal Nuno ...

23 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:42 pm

Sweep the Jays. Astros get swept by Sox. Astros destroy Yankees. Grrrrr.......baseball. Bollocks!

24 Sliced Bread   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:44 pm

Watching the pitchers struggle, and the bats fall silent, one can only conclude: this is all clearly ARod's fault.

25 RIYank   ~  Apr 29, 2013 7:58 pm

Glad we didn't waste a good Pettitte start.

(Or something. Can't get too upset, anyway.)

26 rbj   ~  Apr 29, 2013 8:04 pm

[25] Andy has earned the occasional bad start. In some ways a 9-0 loss is easier than a 9-8 loss. You don't lose precious runs.

27 rbj   ~  Apr 29, 2013 8:06 pm

Robbie. . . Grrr.

28 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 29, 2013 8:20 pm

Sid Fernandez?

29 RIYank   ~  Apr 29, 2013 8:21 pm

[26] It is easier to take.
But, this is going to kill our Pythagorean record. We're gonna be the 2013 edition of the 2012 Orioles.
