Sergio Mitre to the 60 day DL. HAs his Luckā„¢ finally run out?

3 monkeypants   ~  Jul 29, 2011 7:32 pm

[1] Not looking too good for Wang tonight.

4 RIYank   ~  Jul 29, 2011 8:29 pm

Poor Wanger.

5 RIYank   ~  Jul 29, 2011 8:50 pm

The ChiSox are baffed by the knuckler.

6 Mattpat11   ~  Jul 29, 2011 8:50 pm

I figured the Yankees would do something for Irabu. That was very nice.

7 RIYank   ~  Jul 29, 2011 8:59 pm

Huh. Effective, efficient.

Go figure.

Adm Dunn breaks up Wakefield's bid for a no-no.
Wakey is going for W 200 tonight.

I remember early on in Burnett's tenure here, Suzyn Waldman said something like "Burnett knows he's gonna walk alot, alot, and he's learned to accept that."

WHY?

10 Mattpat11   ~  Jul 29, 2011 9:15 pm

[8] We found the guy Adam Dunn can get a hit off of.

11 Mattpat11   ~  Jul 29, 2011 9:18 pm

Oh, this is good TV

AJ Burnett leads the American League in three categories. Walks, Wild Pitches and Errors Committed by a Pitcher

13 Mattpat11   ~  Jul 29, 2011 9:52 pm

That might be the first time I've ever heard Ken Singeton talk like he was a great player. He usually downplays his greatness

14 RIYank   ~  Jul 29, 2011 10:14 pm

Oooh, barring a big rally by the BoSox, My Little Hit Streak has just come to an end.

F this game. I'm just listening to the Mothers play "The Eric Dolphy Memorial Barbecue" loud.

Wow, this is weird. This game is still going? I guess there was some sort of long rain delay, but somehow AJ still pitched 8 innings?

*And* only 15 comments?

17 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 29, 2011 11:36 pm

Ah, I see, delay at the start.

Dur.

18 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Jul 29, 2011 11:37 pm

AJ games are numbing. Somehow his pitching effects the Yankee hitting. How is that possible?

Who misses Nova?

19 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 29, 2011 11:42 pm

[18] Heeeeeeeeeee's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack.

For tomorrow at least.

20 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 29, 2011 11:53 pm

Thanks for that bullshit call blue ...

21 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Jul 29, 2011 11:55 pm

That > sharp stick to the eye.

Let's play two!

22 Mattpat11   ~  Jul 29, 2011 11:55 pm

That was, I believe, the first utterly pointless pinch stand there of the year.

23 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Jul 30, 2011 12:00 am

Truly a depressing night. First seeing Blue Valentine with family at home, then turning on the Yankees in the eight inning, AJ muy dificil.

24 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Jul 30, 2011 12:04 am

One positive: White beats Red in the Sox drawer.

25 Mattpat11   ~  Jul 30, 2011 12:08 am

I mean *seriously*. Russell Martin couldn't stand around and wait for the game to end as well as Eduardo Nunez?
