Lineups to follow...

Another gem from Boner after last nights loss, "we've got to flush this immediately" Well no shit, the Yankee Clipper has turned in to a Chinese Junk this ALCS. Yankee team Members looked like whipped dogs when seen on post game video. Paxton could be the Canadian Sunset to end this season. Sure felt bad for Biggie having to go out the way he did.

Stanton, Sanchez and Hicks....well it’s been a fun season. The WORST thing that happened last night was ARod....err I mean Sanchez hit a worthless HR. Justifies BaBoone leaving him in. This team can’t succeed with a manager that wants to be friends with the players and not make the tough call to bench guys.

 

[Messiah717]

We shall see if tonight is the funeral or if they still have some life left in them.

 

[Rangers94]

Sanchez proving once again he shouldn’t be on this team.

 

[Rangers94]

Get this fucking piece of shit “catcher” off this team. Seriously. Trade him, Stanton, and Ottovino in the offseason and fire BaBoone and Trashman.

 

[Messiah717]

I hate to say it but this garbage is not worth wasting a Friday Night on.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

This team continues to play scared, not a good omen.

 

[mrmel29]

DJ and its 1-1

 

[Messiah717]

Need to get these runs in or forget it.

 

[Rangers94]

Fucking Christ. 4-5-6 hitters in this lineup are trash. Boone fucked up big time. Stanton, Hicks and then the ever useless Sanchez. Boone has set the team up for failure.

 

[Messiah717]

There you go!

 

[Lillie]

Hicks 4-1.

 

[mrmel29]

CYAAAAAAAAA hicks 4-1 yankst

 

[Rangers94]

Needed that!!!! Thank god!!!!

 

[mrmel29]

Not tonight verlander

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Yep, got some runs finally but Stanton & Sanchez fail to help their team by striking out. Paxton is going to have to pitch his ass off.

 

[Rangers94]

Gonna be into our bullpen by the 5th at the latest. Hopefully we can get into Houston’s by then too.

 

[Rangers94]

This is actually a big inning for us. We HAVE TO make Verlander throw at least 18-25 pitches.

 

[Rangers94]

Only 9 pitches. That’s not going to cut it. Verlander is going to go 7-8 if we don’t make him throw more pitches. And with tomorrow being a BP game for Houston supposedly, it’s crucial that we make them use their bullpen tonight. Paxton is going to need a super quick, less than 10 pitch inning here.

 

[Rangers94]

Good thing we put up 4 in that first inning because we now have gone back to everyone getting the ball in the air and trying to hit it out instead of it slapping the ball around the inside of the park and looking for the mistake pitch to hit out of the park. Paxton will be done after this inning, yet Verlander will still go 7. Good job hitters letting him stick around.

 

[Rangers94]

Get that fucking bum off this god damn team. Christ. Put Romine in. He’s better defensively and offensively too.

 

[yankeesince59]

Going to go out on a limb here....but I don't think 4 runs will be enough to win this game.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Yankees offense has a smidgen of success early now sits on its haunches. Best hope the pitching can hold up,

 

[yankeesince59]

Offensively and defensively, I jumped off the Sanchise train a long time ago.

 

[Messiah717]

Paxton came to fight tonight. Good to see.

 

[mrmel29]

leave him out there. Let him throw 120-13- cold night shouldn't be tired

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Damn nice game by Paxton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
