I just realized that they replaced Drew & his 175 average tonight with Petit and his.......175 average.
That was an awesome play. And of course the HOMER Michael Kay was quick to say, He may be in the running for MVP. If by in the running he means top 10-20 yeah that's possible.
YUP! that's all it seems to take. Remember he was 1 for his last 23 & now he's 1 for 1 The mans on fire
Ah sh!t.....those rotten Home Runs. Garshdarnit. The Orioles hit two HRs tonight but got swept by Minnesota who hit six HRs in the three games including one walk off HR. Toronto didn't hit a HR and lost tonight on a walk off HR. Tampa Bay lost tonight and hit two HRs as the Royals beat them also hitting two HRs. I'm confused.
Tex is looking like a Man with a Purpose and On A Mission........like ya' said Vic, both bat and glove, all out abandon, damn have I missed this kinda' play out of Tex, he's definitely back and healthy........ Hey'a Tom, what did you say the name of the inflammation Illness was, which Tex has, and has led him to a no sugar, fats, diet, ????
It'd be a treat to see Tex win another RBI crown, as well as bring the avg up into the .280 range, (or higher of course)....
It is official, my son and I are the good luck charms for Mark Teixeira..two games...3 home runs for Texmex...another decent game Big and Little Al...and we made the scoreboard again, this time with the #catchthegreatness selfie we took....shout out to Buffalo Wild Wings for the free tix we won...well we did eat 60 dollars worth of wings that entered us in the free raffle
CC battled through, but why did we take him out after only 88 pitches? What happened to Kazmir? Did Ellsbury actually go through a game without getting hurt? And MY LORD THE BOTTOM 3 of the order...WTF Bobby Meachum and Dale Berra batting averages
Yeah Al, the Yankees hopes all seasons have basically rested on the shoulders of the top 5-6 in the lineup because after that its pretty much been 3 up & 3 down.
No doubt the Yanks would be that much better with better production from the bottom third but having the top 6 in the order doing the large portion of the heavy lifting isn't necessarily an unusual weakness for alot of teams. And one of those three is on pace for 20 HRs and another (DiDi) has been a considerably better hitter than he was in the early going.
