RHP - Masahiro Tanaka (8-4, 3.84 ERA)

VS.

RHP - Marco Estrada (9-6, 3.40 ERA)

So after today the lead will be either 1 1/2 games or 3 1/2 games. The Yankees really need this one.

Today's lineup......

CF - Ellsbury
LF - Gardner
DH - Rodriquez
1B - Teixeira
C - McCann
RF - Beltran
3B - Headley
SS - Gregorius
2B - Drew

These guys need to wake up today, this game IMO is big.

...and the O's could also get to within 4.

...Yanx still have 11 games vs the Jays and 6 games vs the O's.
 
And the Jays and O's play each other as well. Nobody is winning anything on August 9th. Long way to go.
 
...I realize what date it is, and I was forecasting "doom and gloom" or anything of the sort...I was simply pointing out that the Yanx have several games with the 2 teams nearest to them in the standings.

...and when the Jays and O's play each other (7 more games) it doesn't really help the Yanx as much as one might think, because on the days when the Jays and O's play each other, obviously there's gonna be a winner and a loser...and so depending on whether the Yanx win or lose that same day they are guaranteed to either gain no ground on one of them or lose a game in the standings to one of them.
 
No....it's August 9! And tomorrow is the 10th....I think, lol!
 
Unless the Jays and O's are tied in the standings it most certainly helps. Plus it knocks games off the schedule.
 
HOLY SHIT!! that didn't take long. 1-0 Jays.
 
Tanaka the ace right? Yup arm is fine.

Jays ' pitching has shut out Yankee team 21 consecutive
innings & moving on.............at Yankee Stadium. UNHEARD OF!

Fans this weekend are sure getting their bang for the buck! SAD!
 
Its bad enough that they've eliminated there running game but now they've also eliminated the hitting game.
 
2 hits in six innings and being shutout again. Four runs in the last 42 innings. It's quite disgusting.
 
Warren sucks in relief and is pitching like his heart was cut out when he went to the bullpen
 
Way to go Drew. It's enough with this guy already.
 
Just tuned in to see more bad news, timing is everything, good for jays bad for us, players aren't doing schitt, so look for the skipper to get tossed
 
Good move putting Pinder back in there, Jesus Christ this team has C-H-O-K-E-D!
 
1 run in nearly three games is an embarassment.
 
Top 5 0 for 11. sure could use some of those 90 runs. Last year the Yankees went into Texas at game 107 and got their asses kicked and the season drifted away. Looks like history may repeat itself. The pitching was OK, offense slumped like they did in the '12 ALCS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jays look to be the better team. Where do the Yankees hold an advantage over them right now? Certainly not in the lineup or starting pitching.
