Jeter unlikely to catch Houns from the bench. Have to wait for Cleveland for 6th place.

Both pitchers looking solid...

3 coleman42   ~  Aug 7, 2014 12:42 pm

DP: Drew to Ryan to Headley. Who knew? Third out Prado to Headley. We are the Yankees!

From the Tigers radio broadcast, sounds like yet another slugfest, with a total of 6 whole singles.

One of my grandsons is at the game (the "red shirts" group of campers, shown on TV in bottom of first). He's probably bored with this pitching duel.

6 coleman42   ~  Aug 7, 2014 1:51 pm

Lots of dinky hits today...

7 rbj   ~  Aug 7, 2014 1:53 pm

[5] Should be expected when you have Cy Young winners matching up.

Oh, wait, never mind.

What's the record for the fewest posts in a game thread?

9 coleman42   ~  Aug 7, 2014 2:25 pm

Let's hope Shane doesn't implode in the 8th.

10 coleman42   ~  Aug 7, 2014 2:27 pm

[9] For shame! That was the pessimist in me coming out.

11 rbj   ~  Aug 7, 2014 2:31 pm

So Cy Greene for the 9th?

12 coleman42   ~  Aug 7, 2014 2:31 pm

[9] For shame! That was the pessimist in me coming out.

Not sure why the above is being moderated...

There are games where I feel they're lucky to be winning, but then you look around and it's the 9th inning and then, why not?

Love that Sterling just said Joe Torre had a trick up his sleeve.

15 rbj   ~  Aug 7, 2014 2:52 pm

Ruh roh.

16 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 7, 2014 2:53 pm

Pretty clear that the Robertson should have started the inning.

17 rbj   ~  Aug 7, 2014 2:56 pm

Two down.

18 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 7, 2014 2:58 pm

Cervelli!

19 rbj   ~  Aug 7, 2014 2:58 pm

Three down!

20 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 7, 2014 2:59 pm

Great win! 3 of 4!

21 coleman42   ~  Aug 7, 2014 3:01 pm

Very nice!

22 Jon DeRosa   ~  Aug 7, 2014 3:02 pm

D-Rob vs Miggy C. How'd it look?

23 Jon DeRosa   ~  Aug 7, 2014 3:29 pm

Saw the hi-lite. Nice positioning.
