Think Phil can make it to the 5th inning?

2 rbj   ~  Aug 15, 2013 12:52 pm

Wasted opportunity.

3 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 15, 2013 12:52 pm

[1] I would have said no before the first pitch. Since Phil's got 2 ip under his belt already I say he makes it. Hopefully he can in a 35+ pitch inning at least.

I'm sure it's been discussed but when do the Yankees get to throw a mountain of cash at Trout?

5 The Hawk   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:07 pm

Terrible direction from YES for that triple

6 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:08 pm

Atta boy, Brett. Damn. That's a double for damn near everybody else save Nuney.

Sori!

8 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:11 pm

Another rocket from The Fonze.

9 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:18 pm

Classic Scioscia baseball. Howdya like that, Douche face?

10 rbj   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:18 pm

Ha!

11 Alex Belth   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:20 pm

Bases juiced for Vernon. C'mon, big hit, Hoss.

12 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:21 pm

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

13 Alex Belth   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:21 pm

FAIL

If Teddy Kennedy was driving VW he would have been president. If the Yankees had a VW that could drive the ball in a timely manner, they would be 15 games over .500.

15 rbj   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:34 pm

I was wondering when that was going to happen.

16 Alex Belth   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:35 pm

Ah Phil Hughes with a lead...

17 thelarmis   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:35 pm

fuggin' hughes-less.

18 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:36 pm

Hughes is his own Jinx.

19 thelarmis   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:37 pm

espn still has chris nelson wearing a yankee hat and uni. can we just put his run on our tally?!

20 BobbyB   ~  Aug 15, 2013 1:46 pm

Will no one rid us of this turbulent Hughes?

21 thelarmis   ~  Aug 15, 2013 2:25 pm

actually, a "quality" start for hughes. 10 hits for our offense. one measly little run...

22 Alex Belth   ~  Aug 15, 2013 2:30 pm

Not a bad performance by Hughes at all.

23 rbj   ~  Aug 15, 2013 2:31 pm

Wow, actually getting help from another ump in order to get the call right? What is this world coming to?

24 thelarmis   ~  Aug 15, 2013 2:36 pm

sori with another hit!

c'mon robbie, tie the game!!!

25 Alex Belth   ~  Aug 15, 2013 2:46 pm

ugh

26 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 15, 2013 3:01 pm

I wonder if that mark on Romine's face is a birthmark, or a permanent bruise from his mask?

27 rbj   ~  Aug 15, 2013 3:02 pm

Fuck!

28 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 15, 2013 3:03 pm

Nelson...two HRs in one game? OK everyone, back to work.

29 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 15, 2013 3:13 pm

Call me crazy, but there should have been no runs scored in this inning. Boone got squeezed on that walk to Congar, and he should have had the SO for the third out.

30 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 15, 2013 3:40 pm

Bah! Send him home!

31 rbj   ~  Aug 15, 2013 3:46 pm

Jeez, Mikey, draw this out as long as possible.

32 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 15, 2013 3:48 pm

Red Hatted Ham is doing all these pitching changes to rub it in the face of his players who have to fly to LA after the game and play tomorrow.

33 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 15, 2013 3:51 pm

The Yankees haven't had 14 hits and 2 runs in 60 years. I love watching History!

34 rbj   ~  Aug 15, 2013 3:52 pm

[33] Curses, foiled again!

35 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 15, 2013 3:52 pm

VW's sense of timing is a little off.

36 rbj   ~  Aug 15, 2013 3:57 pm

Aw nerts.
