    0-2 count and Phelps throws one right down the middle.

    That made no sense to me either Vic. A 144 hitter & you throw him a beach ball over the center of the plate instead of wasting a pitch or two & get him to chase one. WTF?

    ...Darvish with a 2 run lead will be tough to overcome...Yanx had their chances to run him from the game.

    I understand you don't want a wild pitch there but if it's me I go high out of the strike zone and there's a good chance he chases one.

    Hitting 144 I'm sure he's chased many pitches out of the zone this year. Just a very bad pitch selection by Phelps. And costly, like Ron said over coming 2 against someone like Darvich is going to be tough.

    Yeah doesn't look good. Unfortunately, we knew the pitching would start stumbling at some point.

    Jeter 3-3 as he passes Yaz and ties Honus Wager on the all time hits list with 3420.

    I don't know why Kay keeps saying that Jeter is in 7th place when he's in 8th. For some reason they're not putting Cap Anson on there list. Yet he's in the record books as having the 6th most hits at 3,435. Maybe its because he played in the 1800s (retired in 1897)

    Anson is 6th. Yaz was 8th and he's tied with Wagner in 7th.

    That 0-2 pitch to the 144 hitting Arencibia is the difference in this game. The Yankees have been doing this shit all season, win 5 lose 5 win 4 lose 4. Its a f'king joke.
