One must know pain to be a hero.
yankees looking to get back on track behind Igawa-san.
Pitching matchup
BAL: RHP Steve Trachsel (15-8, 4.97 ERA in 2006)
Trachsel has a 4-4 record with a 3.58 ERA in nine career starts against the Yankees. Trachsel will be making his Orioles debut in his first start of 2007. The 36-year-old won 15 games for the Mets last season and has a career 9-9 record and 3.58 ERA against the Yankees, holding the pinstripes' offense to a .227 average.
NYY: RHP Kei Igawa (Major League debut)
Igawa had a 63-38 record and 3.30 ERA for his six years in Japan's Central League. Igawa makes his first start in the Majors after a successful career in Japan that included three seasons as strikeout champion. Igawa posted a 2-0 record and 3.13 ERA in six spring starts, striking out 22 batters in 23 innings.
Players to watch
Derek Jeter is a .391 hitter (9-for-23) with a .781 slugging percentage against Trachsel.
Orioles catcher Ramon Hernandez has always worn out Yankee pitching. He owns a .396 batting average against New York, with seven homers in 53 career at-bats.
let's hope the weather today will provide better game conditions. although 37 degrees (feels like 30) is certainly less than optimal, though a day game. the forecast gives a 30% chance of scattered flurries and snow showers, with a possible high of 43.

16-9 in game threads (6-2 at the NYS!!!) (0-1 in the playoffs.)
Good luck to Kei Igawa in his MLB debut. Igawa needs to stay poised, don't get too caught up in the moment, and pitch effectively. The defense needs to be consistent. You can't just have 0 errors in one game and 2 or 3 the next.Originally Posted by nyyterp
The offense though, they need to convert by finding ways to score other than the longball. Sure, the Yankees will get a high OBP, but their batting avg. needs to be higher especially with RISP and the Bases Loaded.

Jeter is in the lineup today, so is Posada. No Damon.

Good morning/afternoon everyone!
No work today as it turned out, so I get to enjoy the game with you all this afternoon.
MLBTV is my route today, but it hasnt been so bad these first few days of the season.
I'm going to clean up my pad and then settle in. Talk to you all soon.
Follow my season long Yankees blog at http://theworldofcarl.blogspot.com/
Although I'd love to see Damon in the lineup, I'm more concerned about him healing fully so he can STAY in the lineup.
Anonymous internet thread posters say the darndest things.
I have MLB.tv for the first month and I just signed up for mlb.extra innings with the cable co. too.
I noticed that the game won't be on extra innings.
Does anyone know if the game will be on mlb.tv today or do they randomly not so games too for no apparent reason?
I`ll miss most of this today but "For the love of God" chill people and have some fun. This head banging on every at bat is getting old.
Just win.
I'm really disappointed I have to head to work now. I'll be taping the game and hoping for a good outcome!

I'm not sure if I'll be around for the game today, so LET'S GO YANKEES! I hope the team can rebound from the last 2 games. I hope Igawa pitches well today as well.
It's very early in the season, but the Devil Rays are in 1st place in the A.L. East. Let's hope the Yankees see that and do something about it.
2010 Regular Season Record: 88-57
settle in for a long game folks - Traschel pitching

Come on Yankees, score the takedown, get side control, rain down blows, lock the armbar in.

Between the fact that it's Yankees versus Orioles and Traschel is pitching, this could be a 6 hour, 9 inning game!Originally Posted by hardrain

The good news was that because of the holiday there was absolutely no traffic getting to the Stadium. And a lot of people left early so there wasn't any traffic leaving the Stadium. Traffic wise, I think it was the best game I've ever been to.

Simply unacceptable. I'm paying $180 to watch baseball games and these geniuses can't figure out how to show me a Saturday afternoon game??? I don't care if it's not on YES. Show the Orioles feed or My9 or whatever. It's not rocket science. Mlbt and indemand are making millions and they have to rob the fans of the right to watch a Saturday afternoon game. Pure greed is all it is.
These fat cat excecutive who lead these companies and couldnt' care less about the average fan getting screwed like these every week can burn in hell.![]()

Agreed. Luckily, I'm in the NY area, but I'd be furious if I paid that much and I couldn't see the game. It actually is on YES today, though.Originally Posted by RIYankee23

Nice message isn't?
It's not on FOX. Why is it blacked out???
I'm in RI, do they expect me to drive 3.5 hours to watch the game in person?
