Manny doesnt bend much, huh?
Cano pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease do something good. Please.
Kulish29
08-18-06, 02:40 PM
Alright Alex!
That wasnt clutch though. Just stat padding.
Too bad Giambi is as slow as an Ox, lol.

Big time double for A-Rod! Still only one down, lets get another run home!

YESSS AROD won a lot of cheer from yankee fans there
apehandle
08-18-06, 02:40 PM
Alright A-Rod. Look, most of us have been patient all year. We need a big hit right now. You get paid well, now deliver.
Ask and ye shall receive...
BroadwayBomber55
08-18-06, 02:40 PM
We need another double Robbie Cano.
I can't believe the Red Sox left Snyder in that long. He should have been out before Giambi, thats what you get for having no lefty I guess
In Mo I Trust
08-18-06, 02:40 PM
ALEX
Doubles, Manny decides he doesn'e think it's a good idea to try to cut the ball off, and the Yanks tack on another.
Not like its a big game or anything.
Metroidman
08-18-06, 02:40 PM
Cano needs a single and we're set

Did Manny just watch the ball pass him?
YeY Arod!!!!
Manny has more important things to do than play defense. :D

Ssacco08

That was a big hit for Alex. Way to go.
That's a pretty darn big hit, people! See how much Snyder missed his spot by? Lopez wanted it outside, pitch hugged the inner half. Can't put a better swing on a ball- a HR would've been a lesser swing since he squared that perfectly. Now get the NEXT run in, Robbie (or Jorge if they walk you).

Why is it that Delores calls the Carbuyers Market every year from a different location, with a different accent and a different daughter going to college? I think she's lying.

That wasn't clutch at all. It's only the 6th inning.
dabomb2045
08-18-06, 02:41 PM
If we can tack on some more....it'd be beyond huge. The Sox are wasting their pen, and we can stretch Wang out some more and save our big guns in the pen for the 2nd game.
Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaalcooooooooo
Kidding?
You have to post "the Red Sox will lose this series guaranteed" in your reply. Seriously. :)

If we get A-Rod and Giambi in, it puts the game out of reach for a David Ortiz Clutch Grand Slam (TM)
brosiusbuddy
08-18-06, 02:41 PM
arod 2-4. Nice. gets us deeper into that pen. Cano CanDo CanNot CanToo is up next. Single here gives 25 men on a bench and a whole league of fans a huge exhale.
I can't believe the Red Sox left Snyder in that long. He should have been out before Giambi, thats what you get for having no lefty I guess
Their bullpen is far worse than ours and there is another game, they GOT NO CHOICE
What did Manny do? Could someone explain it for those of us without TV?

08-18-06, 02:42 PM
Cano's been 1 for 4 with an RBI his last 3 games
IOW, he's due
knickfan23
08-18-06, 02:42 PM
Huh? Isn't it blacked out, as always???
Technically, its blacked out. But if you know how to play with your PC settings, there is a way around it. Its actually pretty common around these parts. However, some people when given the instructions, do not execute it the right way.
Kiwiwriter
08-18-06, 02:42 PM
I LOVE how Fenway gets silent when the Yankees score.
Me, too. I love that.
Alright A-Rod. Look, most of us have been patient all year. We need a big hit right now. You get paid well, now deliver. Seems A-Rod responds to direct, non-confrontational tact. We'll do that from now on. :)
I hope everyone understands that I am following the game but too nervous to post ... on top of everything else I am overcaffeinated and my nerve endings are shooting blue sparks! :eek:
Shonday
08-18-06, 02:42 PM
Thats what you think. :D
Apparently you havent been around the GT the last couple of years. I'll explain this during the 2nd game of the DH.
Oooo...I'll hold you to that, now I'm intrigued. I've always hated the Saturday blackouts.

I need to leave work and go watch this game. This is killing me.

Nah. Snyder is a worse pitcher than the rest of their bullpen and it was obvious he had lost it. Delcarman would have been a better choice against Giambi

Hey Lou...
How's Clifford doing these days?
Kulish29
08-18-06, 02:43 PM
and it came in the 7th inning too! Does that qualify as "clutch"? :)
No, because the Yankees were already leading. It's only stat padding.
What did Manny do? Could someone explain it for those of us without TV?
He made a weak stab at the ball and let it run bye him all the way to the wall...
nydeano

Yes, but that allowed the runners to move up to 2nd and 3rd, which just paid dividends!

3-4-5 with RBI singles. Now......you NEED to keep Wang in there for at least one more. Save the pen, if he gets into trouble you have the ability and time to get him before it gets too late.

We better send Wang out for the 7th. If I'm wang, I throw it straight down the middle with movement, and see how many 1-3 pitch outs I can get. Him going 8 would be amazing for our bullpen, which really needs rest.

I hope Myers isn't messed by his 9 batter appearance yesterday.

Yeah she's usually right there with me... i don't blame her for wanting to pass on it... sometimes I wish I could, but ...can't.. stop.. watching...
I know that feeling...I've had trouble watching some of the critical games in New York baseball history, too. I stayed home from school to watch the Boston Massacre in 1978.

I just said the same thing to my brother. Where's the no doubles defense.

Wang, good job.

Another double off of Wang. Here comes the hook.
Dammit. After scoring 4 and taking a 5 run lead, you really need to put them down in the bottom of the inning.
Sady my wife doesn't understand my Yankees addiction and she roped me into going out to dinner with 2 other couples tonight at 7PM. I'm sure it will be a 2-3 hour dinner... oh well.
Are you a swinger Mugsie?

Loretta and Hinske are 6/7. The rest? 1/17.

You couldn't have scripted this game any better...we get to their BP early, take a big lead (twice:mad: ), resting ours.
I love Yankees baseball:)
Put that on a t-shirt and make a million dollars ;)

Best part, Ortiz is basically guaranteed to bat in the 9th too.
Oh. It's Myers. That means HR time.
Sigh.
Why the short leash with a 5-run lead? He's worked out of trouble a few times today, I'd have let him try to get through this inning with the big lead.
I know how important this particular game is....but the next four games are huge too.
knickfan23
08-18-06, 02:55 PM
another double for loretta.
Yea, I guess you have to take him out. 7 XBH. 6 2B and you want to stop the small fire before it gets big.
Good game Mr. Wang.
Myers in.
YankClipper5
08-18-06, 02:55 PM
argh! please make this nice and easy, maybe Myers can get Ortiz then try and get Beam to finish the game.

WOW. I guess Torre is afraid of 8-5 with no outs.

I see Kluvier has a ton of prospects in his system. You may want to check with him first before proceeding.

For the record, Toaderly, I was kidding. I'm sure you knew that, just wanted to make sure...I'm actually married myself (2 weeks tomorrow!)

He had nothing today, and really gutted through 6 innings, taking into account what he had today, I'm incredibly impressed with his effort.

Nah, you have confused me with Lou.

Nah. 5-run lead you want to play in the best spot to record an out, not necessarily to prevent extra base hits. Play normal until the run at the plate is tying.

8-5 with 0 outs in the 7th is dangerous. Win this game first.

Hey, Wang did not have his great stuff as evident by the FB's. He grinded it out. No complaints.
I Heart Jeter
08-18-06, 02:56 PM
Did Torre yank Wang too early? I mean if he, god forbid, were to give a homerun up to Ortiz, we'd still have a 3 run lead.

Not too early to yank Wang.
We need this game.

Gee Joe makes a pitching change and people here are second guessing it... what a novelty....

Myers Fenway ERA = 27.00
I am not going to second guess this move, as with Ponson tonight he NEEDS this game. I would've tried to give him a little more leash, but I understand Joe's thought process.
cupcollector99

I think they want this game so they can take tonight off.. Give Ponson the ball and say "good luck kid" and let him pitch or get reamed, then release him..

Do they ever, ever pitch the same arm on a double header.
