    C. Capuano 1-3 4.35 vs. C Sale 10-3 2.12


    Today's line up (I don't get this at all)

    Jeter
    Prado
    Teixeira
    Beltran
    Headley
    Cervelli
    Wheeler
    Suzuki
    Ryan

    By benching BOTH Gardner & Ellsbury we've completely lost what little running game we had. Oh well.

    OH WELL............ If Sale is on, as he is most of the time (2.12 ERA),
    chalk this one in the L column. Oh well.

    The guy looks like he weighs 140 lbs soaking wet. Its amazing how he gets so much power in his throws. But remember Lincecum started out the same way with his thin frame. He only lasted about 5 years at the higher level. He hasn't been much since.

    Another one of those non scoring days. Hopefully they wake up in the later innings and don't waste another good pitching effort.

    Damn it. Not the time to make a mistake pitch with two outs and give up a two run homer. 3-0 now.

    A dropped ball in left has opened the door to a Yankee rally. Tex with an RBI double makes it 3-1 with two on and one out in the sixth.

    Wheeler HBP with bases loaded make it 3-2. This inning has worked out very well for the Yankees. The error seems to have rattled Sale and his pitch count is now close to 100.

    Huge two run single by Ichiro and the Yankees now lead 4-3. What an inning.

    And as expected the automatic out AKA Ryan flies out to end the inning. Now we just need to hold them.

    This would be a great win if they can hold on and if Boston gives some help today.

    No way. Boston helping the Yankees!.........they can't even
    help themselves.
