August 24th game thread. Yankees vs White Sox

[Rick2583]

C. Capuano 1-3 4.35 vs. C Sale 10-3 2.12


Today's line up (I don't get this at all)

Jeter
Prado
Teixeira
Beltran
Headley
Cervelli
Wheeler
Suzuki
Ryan

By benching BOTH Gardner & Ellsbury we've completely lost what little running game we had. Oh well.

 

[totus44]

Crapuano sucks!

 

[Rick2583]

Another runner in scoring position with less than 2 outs., lets see what happens.

 

[Rick2583]

Cervelli strikes out & Wheeler strikes out. Oh well.

 

[cagedlion]

OH WELL............ If Sale is on, as he is most of the time (2.12 ERA),
chalk this one in the L column. Oh well.

 

[totus44]

Sale is on.

 

[Rick2583]

The guy looks like he weighs 140 lbs soaking wet. Its amazing how he gets so much power in his throws. But remember Lincecum started out the same way with his thin frame. He only lasted about 5 years at the higher level. He hasn't been much since.

 

[Messiah717]

Another one of those non scoring days. Hopefully they wake up in the later innings and don't waste another good pitching effort.

 

[Messiah717]

Damn it. Not the time to make a mistake pitch with two outs and give up a two run homer. 3-0 now.

 

[Messiah717]

A dropped ball in left has opened the door to a Yankee rally. Tex with an RBI double makes it 3-1 with two on and one out in the sixth.

 

[Messiah717]

Wheeler HBP with bases loaded make it 3-2. This inning has worked out very well for the Yankees. The error seems to have rattled Sale and his pitch count is now close to 100.

 

[totus44]

That's how you score....lean into one.

 

[Messiah717]

Huge two run single by Ichiro and the Yankees now lead 4-3. What an inning.

 

[totus44]

Where is Art to bash Ichiro?

 

[Rick2583]

And as expected the automatic out AKA Ryan flies out to end the inning. Now we just need to hold them.

 

[Rick2583]

Where is Art to bash Ichiro?

I think you have to say his name 3 times in the mirror for him to appear.

 

[Messiah717]

This would be a great win if they can hold on and if Boston gives some help today.

 

[mrmel29]

This would be a great win if they can hold on and if Boston gives some help today.

Yep. And this win will really make those 2 losses to the astros really burn

 

[mrmel29]

Oops, spoke too soon.

 

[cagedlion]

This would be a great win if they can hold on and if Boston gives some help today.

No way. Boston helping the Yankees!.........they can't even
help themselves.

Now, if only Robertson could hold the lead. NOT!

 

[Art51USAF]

Walking Drew insane.

 

[Art51USAF]

Jeter's time to shine.

 

[Messiah717]

Yup, time for Jeter to win this thing.

 

[Art51USAF]

shoes

 

[Messiah717]

Tex should be banned from batting left handed.

 

[Rick2583]

McCann B O O M !!!!! A pinch hit 3 run homer the Yankees win 7-4

 

[mrmel29]

Funny watching meredith trying to move her fat ass out of the way of the gatorade buckets at the end of games without much success.

 

[Messiah717]

Thank you McCann.

 

[Rick2583]

Tex should be banned from batting left handed.

He should at least be fined every time they give him the entire left side & doesn't take advantage of it.

 

[Messiah717]

She does have some large breasteses.
