Nunez scratched, instead tonight's second sacker will be. . . Mark Reynolds! Who has 1 inning at second since 2007. Please adjust your alcohol intake accordingly.
[1] He turned the game-ending DP last night, right?
1] I heard that Cashman was looking in his rolodex for Mariano Duncan's number.
[3] He should probably check his beeper instead.
[2] I fear going to the well too often
[3] No Luis Sojo?
[1] The joys of injuries combined with 13 man pitching staffs and chronically short benches.
Nice play Derek, no pasta for us.
Whoever kidnapped the real Kuroda I wish they'd give him back.
Crap
BRETT FUCKING LAWRIE.
Goddamit.
There, Rajai Davis, that will teach JA Happ and, uh, Ryan Dempster.
boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Well, I've got some Capital One Cup I could be watching, fuck this nonsense ...
Hmmm, what nonsense did I miss? What did Jeter do to Kuroda since he's been back?
I've never seen a run score on a dropped third strike. In fact, I don't believe I've ever seen a runner reach on a dropped third called strike.
Has Kuroda turned back to a pumpkin?
I do not care for imitation Kuroda.
Hmmmmm.
Yep, I have important things to do. Can't spend the evening watching a silly game!
Well this is no fun, unless one is rooting for the Jays.
BTW, I missed Jeter's hit in the 1st inning---legit or not?
[20] Double.
[21] Aha! Well struck or a blooper?
Oh great, Joba's up.
Kuroda struggling is not a pleasant example of body language.
Why send A-Rod there? He's still not his old self (and probably never will be again)
[25] More importantly, you're down by six runs with only one out in the inning. Still, it took more or less a perfect sequence to get him out. So goes this season.
Blergh. Joba coming in, might find something else to do.
