The reason Alex in anxious is because the ump called him out on ball 4 in his last AB, Al.

That AB was the result of his last AB.

hobokenfish
07-30-09, 09:40 PM
To be fair, a lot of them haven't been strikes. They would have needed a longer bat to get to those "strikes".

Yes, but at this point they should know that anything close is being called a strike.

Well, at least A-Rod swung at strike 3.

BUT the Yankees tie the game. Good night, was that the sixth inning already?

A-Rod is 3 for his last 18 with RISP. Hitting his anti-clutch stride just in time for the home stretch.

Molina "sprinting" home or Damon's slide

Pettitte is looking great, but I would like to see Girardi get the bullpen going early in the 7th so that he can react quickly if necessary.

Just popping in here to voice my displeasure with the fact that I chose to stay home for this game due to weather, confident that I'd be able to watch on MLBn and avoid the Hawk, but instead they blacked it out, as well as the non-HD YES feed on EI, which I would rather watch than Comcast.

I pity any of you who are also stuck watching Hawk call this game, as it is even worse than his normal level of awfulness. I wish I could reach through the TV and strangle him. I'd kill for Kay right now. That's how bad he is.

this what drives me nuts we have to play top notch baseball. if we make it to the playoffs we can not have this type of def.

That was awful. Andy and Phil didn't deserve that.

If we lose this game 2-1, it's undoubtedly on the defense.

Andy was part of the bad defense.

They gave the Sox about six outs that inning. :(

I'll tell you this, the next time Pierzynski (sp) goes in to break up 2 they are going to stick the ball in his ear. As Leiter said, that was a very late, close to dirty slide.

After what we have done this inning we are in no position to blame anyone but ourselves.
huh... I wasn't making excuses so I duno wtf you're talking about so calm down.

Just found it funny that the first pitch was right on the outside corner and much better than some of the called strike three's he had on the backdoor curveball...

everybody knows that a good baseball play there is for AJ to slide late and hard.

every good team has a player or three willing to do that.

absolutely. the play is for robbie to drop the arm and fire. it's up to AJ to decide if he wants one splitting his forehead or not. period.

robbie sliding his leg out was an absolute chicken move. he blinked. period.

Does this ump not realize that the strike zone does not consist of anything thrown within about 100 yards of the plate in any direction?

That's two straight strikeouts called way off the outside corner. Meanwhile the pitch Hughes threw was called a ball.

Robby has to make the play, but I can understand what caused the problem.

what caused the problem was robbie executing a terrible throw.

his feet weren't in place because he shied from contact.

fine. eat the ball.

THAT was the play if he couldn't set.
