David Price is all that stands in the way of the start of a new winning streak. Oh, and a bunch of OK hitters too. And Verlander tomorrow.
Never mind the funny stuff:
Let’s Go Yank-ees!

Sutcliff & what's his face? I'm going with the Tigers broadcasters.
Good steal, me.
Green better be getting those calls too, blue.
When the Tigers announced their Price, the Yanks put up the Greene!
2 on, no out ... how will the Yankees fail to score this time?
[5] NO PLAYS.
Oh, good, he's not slow. I was a little worried that the ankle thing would slow him down.
[5] Like that.
It was probably the most likely of the various methods.
[5] Ah, good old inning-ending double play ...
That sucks.
At least we're driving up Price's pitch count.
[11] No thanks to Jacoby. Swinging on the first pitch! Loser.
Hah!
Picked off and... safe.
[12] I have redemption!
NO PLAYS!
No bunting in the third inning!
Yay!
Way to go, way to go!
NO PLAYS = good things happen.
See Derek
Excellent. Let's get Jeter in, please.
Price having trouble locating
Young Pradowan!
Yay, Mark!
More optimal.
MOAR RUNZ!!!
Fair ball!
Excellent, excellent. Maybe this will burn NO PLAYS into Joe's brain.
Holy cow.
I thought Torii would catch it. I guess Tex did too.
Not especially optimal base running from Tesh.
Wooooo.
Yeah, something is badly wrong with Price.
Score Van in da hizzy!
[27] But, it doesn't matter.
NO PLAYS shall make ye free.
I certainly approve of this
C'mon, Hedy!
Seven hits in a row!
Eight!!!!!!
[32] That's HEADLEY!
This is amazing.
Can't predict baseball.
Hot diggity, even slow rounders are hits.
This is what California used to do to us.
Ya' just can't predict.....
SWEEP THE LEG, FRANKIE!
Didn't they get like seven in a row or something in like 2002? Off of Wells, maybe?
[36] Damn you! ; )
This is absolutely incredible.
ALL NINE GUYS!
Nine in a row! Everyone gets a hit in the third!
Well, sure didn't see this inning coming ...
ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US!
Boo, I made an out
Wait, I forget, what is this type of play? I mean, why does Ellsbury have to go back to the dugout? What's that called?
Another productive at bat.
Booooooooo, Jacoby, booooooooooo!
Two straight outs. Very demoralizing.
Score Truck, y'all!!!
Why is Derek going the same thing as Ellsbury?
Now I want double digits.
Inning of the year!
Nice inning.
Damn. That was a big score truck. Eighteen wheeler. Monster truck.
[55] No home runs, right?
Alright Greeney, shut 'em down.
They're already in the sixth inning in Toronto.
Phew
And the Sox are rallying. Bases loaded, one in, one out.
Two in (WP).
Can't believe I'm rooting for the Red Sox.
Good job, rook!
Cokey!
[64] +1
Beat me to it!
Boooooooo.
No no-no for Shane.
And no shut-out.
Tigers are stealing our hits. And runs.
C'mon rook, knuckle down.
Hey, look: NO DEFENSIVE PLAYS EITHER!
And NO DEFENSIVE PLAYS succeeds!
Nice pick, Tesh!
My son and I skipped around the room. 9 straight hits? Fun fun fun, and no daddy needed.
And Green survived a potential tough inning. No matter how tough you are, you can't be a Mean Shane Green.
Damn, the Red Sox are threatening to give away their lead. Jays in the corners with nobody out.
And indeed, Valencia homers. 4-2 Jays.
Ouch, Frankie!
Oh, jeez.
The injury magnet strikes draws another one.
Oooh. Right in the Cervelli.
Oh ... boy ... that hurt.
[77] Right in Frankie's brains ...
Get your one hour full body massage, only $29.95!
Let's chip in and get one for Cervelli. He could use a rub right now.
[79] He's a guy, so . . .
[80] for those not watching on television, there is a tacky ad right behind the plate taunting this service.
I think it's great that there's a pitcher named "Drew Smyly".
It's like you asked your kindergartener what he did in school.
Hey, one of them whatchamacallit a hit!
Rick Sutcliffe ... still an imbecile.
Cabrera looks awful trying to run ...
Whoa. V-Bomb.
Solo shot ... limits the damage.
[86] bum ankle. Tigers aren't healthy this year.
Terrible error. Bleh.
[83] : )
Phil Hughes has a 2-hit shutout going through seven. Against KC, so that's good.
[57] Right!
It's easy being Greene.
Hughesy loses his shutout, and then his lead, in the eighth inning. Just a bunch of singles, though -- not the Hughes Special.
The walk pisses me off more than the triple.
Ayuh.
Much as I enjoy watching Dellin, this is just dumb.
Ugh. C'mon, close it out.
Perfect.
So now Betances is burned, his ERA takes a shot, and all for no reason whatsoever.
Duncin' Betances?
Perfect night. Pick up a game on all the bad guys.
Okay.
Happy with the W.
really wish i could've been here during the game thread. lotsa good stuff and i would've been happy to join in on the fun.
i'm a-gonna have to watch the 3rd inning!
