The New York Yankees won over the Chicago White Sox by a score of 12-3. If I had to choose a player of the game, I would have a tough choice between Phil Hughes and the rest of the Yankees lineup. When Phil Hughes stepped to the mound, it read in bright lights… Phil Hughes, headlining tonight. Phil Hughes was the movie star, he was the man who made the movie work. He was the rock star, he was the president of the United States, he was general Patton all in one. Frankly, Phil Hughes was… Phil Hughes. It’s time to recognize Phil Hughes as a star in his OWN right. He was throwing this ball, this, this ball across the plate and it had some kind of strange cutting action. It looked like it was a mix between a curve ball and a cutter. Whatever it was, it was the “tool” Phil Hughes used to shut the White Sox down. As soon as you saw Hughes’ first strike out, you knew he was going to have that pitch working all day. All day, EVERY day! Here’s what Phil Hughes did to the White Sox. He STARRED them! He STARRED the White Sox! They had no answer for his cutter fastball! Phil Hughes pitched seven innings giving up no runs. That’s right, NO runs on four hits and six strike outs. My friends, that is what you call a pitcher. This is some one we can rely on. This is some one who is here to stay, for a long time. It’s his time. He’s shining, he’s sparkling, he’s radiating greatness. He’s unbelievable. He’s… Phil Hughes. Oh, poh, poh, poh! We now have the batting to talk about. You don’t want to hear this. YOU don’t want to hear what I have to say about the Yankees’ hitting. DO YOU?? If you do, stick around. Yankee fans? Welcome aboard…. The Yankees BOMBARDED the White Sox with bombs all OVER the place!! It was a barrage of hits the White Sox couldn’t handle. They were broken down. Defeated. Robinson Cano blitzed and battered the White Sox’s pitching with blows all over the body. He went 2-for-4 with two runs scored and THREE RBI. No, I’m serious, THREE RBI. Then Nick Swisher made them cry after SHELLING the White Sox with a two run missile. They call Swisher the MISSILE because he MISSILES pitchers! HE went 3-for-4 with two runs scored and two RBI. You must know that April is over and May has begun because Mark Teixeira got FOUR hits!!! Let me fly around my living room like a plane for a second! Ok, that was fun! All in all, the Yankees scored 12 runs. The opponent known as the Chicago White Sox? Bye Bye. Enjoy your trip back to Chicago!
The Red Sox are done. My father had tickets to the game but I didn't go because I wasn't feeling well.
