    ...if Tanaka can out duel Ubaldo, the Yanx have a chance to sweep a possibly move 8 games up in the loss column...and though I'm sure they'll cool off somewhat, I don't see them blowing that kind of lead. Most of the division is just too mediocre.

    I was hoping for a series win, a sweep would really ice the cake. With Tanaka out there it could be in the realm of possibility. As reigning AL East Champs Baltimore is the team to beat but I'm also watching the Blue Jays.

    This game is gravy since they won the series already. That being said with the rest of the division floundering the time to win is now.

    Curb stomping is the only acceptable course. Beat them while they are down and do not let up.

    This looks like the making of a rout; scalping, and taking no prisoners......

    Jones deep drive to the warning track, and Gardner loses one to the Sun. He's lucky the ball didn't hit him right b/t the eyes, as he couldn't see the ball at all........:smiley-sun:

    Only 2 Errors on the year, not sure what the official score keeper will call this a hit or error.....:smiley-sunce:

    2nd time this year, I've seen Gardner fall over backwards.....damned day games.......!!! :smiley-sun:

    ...I'll say it again...the Yanx are getting the breaks and the O's are not...but that's how it goes when you're riding a hot streak.

    ...I wonder if Murphy can bounce a grounder off of 1B next time up...he's already hit 2B and 3B for "excuse me" hits.

    Damn, just got back from taking the squeeze to the doctor, Yankees kicking some serious butt today. Like Jerry Reed sang, when you're hot you're hot, when you're not you're not. Good payback, Yankees lost some real heartbreakers to Bucks Bunch last season.

    ...This is the best I've seen Tanaka throw since early last year. The O's are a good hitting team...but not in this series...only 13 hits...30 hits for the Yanx.

    I remember Adam Jones comments on Tanaka last season saying he'd done all his stuff in Japan. Looking at Jones and the rest of the Oriole Hitters today I'd say he brought some of his stuff here. Fuck the damn Orioles, I remember going to games at old Memorial Stadium in the early '80's. Kick their asses.
