    Apparently tonight's 1B umpire is the only one in baseball who calls Pettitte's balk move.

    Fuck! Seriously?

    It's in an espn insider article:

    • Pettitte has been known throughout his 16-year career for having an excellent pickoff move, and during that time he has been called for only 11 balks.

    Of those, three have been called by Angel Hernandez.

    Why is this relevant? Well, Hernandez is scheduled to be the first-base umpire Monday night, at a time when the Rangers are running the bases aggressively and when Pettitte will be working to keep them anchored to the bag.

    When Joe Torre managed the Yankees, he grew frustrated with Hernandez's interpretation of Pettitte's move to first, once telling the umpire that he was seeing something that nobody else was seeing.

    It's probably not going to have any effect.

    I don't think it's a story. 3 in 16 years is not a whole lot. Watch he calls 2 tonight.

    I mean fuck, we know he's great. Shut the fuck up for a minute. I love how in the first inning they were talking about how he always throws first pitch strikes and he hadn't thrown a first pitch strike yet.

    we just gotta hope the high pitch count will affect his next start on much shorter rest.

    Can they at least show effort and swing at a pitch?

    for fans of a team that are going to be courting lee in the offseason you sure as hell whine alot bout him. you guys are almost as bad as the yankee kissass michael kay.





    btw- i love the idiot who ran onto the field. great way to blow 150 bucks or so. :lol::lol::lol:
    Ron: I just don't feel like going out tonight

    EXACTLY what i was thinking. Just like i heard them whine that Lee has a bunch of shit on his hat(he's doing something to the ball). Won't be whining when he's in pinstripes next year, will they?

    Still think the Yankees go back to Texas with a 3-2 series lead. Don't know if Burnett pitches well or not, but i think the Yankees will hit Hunter around.

    I'm not whining about him...it's just fucking annoying when you're being reminded of how good he is throughout the entire game by the announcers. I fucking know he's great, don't have to keep reminding me.
