Just saw the line up on MLB, no Jeter, Tex, or Solarte, McCann playing 1st base. Jesus Christ. Hiroki best pitch his butt of tonight.

Yeah this lineup looks weak.......


Gardner (287)
Roberts (242)
Ellsbury (259)
McCann (218)
Murphy (387)

Suzuki (338)
Ryan (412)
Johnson (196)
Kuroda

4-0 lead so Kuroded better make it hold up.

This kid jr murphy is a good hitter. Maybe can get him more at bats if mccann plays some first base when tex is hurt or needs a break.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Kuroda had the lucky horseshoe up his butt last inning. Murphy, yep I like that guy, I'd rather see him stick around staying mentored by McCann. When Cervelli comes back time to make a move.

 

[Messiah717]

7-0 on a two RBI single by Ellsbury, a stolen base and then an RBI single by McCann.

Looks like Ellsbury may be breaking out of the funk he's been in.

Cardinals nibbling their way back into the game. Pray for the pen!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Nice play Thornton you stupid ass!

 

[Rick2583]

Don't worry Betances will shut them down.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Watching this game I believe the Yankees need more infield practice. Sloppy play this evening.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Could not believe that, bases loaded, no out, Gardner strikes out, Roberts get 3-0 count the GIDP.

That's on our brilliant manager Michael. Who the fuck gives a green light to a 240 hitter on 3-0 with the bases loaded & only one out. This is just one of MANY reasons why I can't stand this asshole.

He had a good game going, I just thought maybe he'd take one more. I don't know who gave him a green light. Yankees have played a very sloppy game this evening but if they get the W OK.

And robertson staggers over the finish line to keep the victory for kuroda with 30 pitches so maybe betances closes tmo if needed

I'd like to see Girardi flip flop D-rob and Betances for a couple of games just to see what happens.

I'd like to see the same.....

the only flip flopping I've seen lately, was flipping back n forth between the Yanx game and the Kings-Black Hawks double OT slug-fest shoot out....

I doubt the Stanley Cup itself will be as good a series as these very semi-finals. Usually the Cup is not as evenly matched, or as exciting as the Playoffs themselves. Kind like many blow out Super Bowls, of the past; used to be, compared to the Playoffs prior.
