Things happen in the game. Nothing you
can do. I don't go and say,
"I'm gonna beat this guy up."
Also, victorino is a turd, but Swisher is diarrhea....he's the worst
He reached 90 or higher 18 times during the first two innings.
given his line I'm not sure if that's good or bad.
Again, I'm not a yanks hater...I just work here.
he was a little better than his previous 2 starts. but his arm was tiring as the game went on. His pitch count was good. hard to know what would have happened in his final inning if Martin doesn't throw the ball away. maybe he only gives up 3 runs instead of the 5 that were charged to him.
Swisher is awesome, screw you guys. God forbid somebody speaks and acts like he's having fun out there, a bit of a welcome change from the more boring personalities in baseball.
love his salute to the bleacher creatures during roll call
Yeah, thats definitely cool, they love him. Did he switch it up this year? Didn't make it in time for roll call the only game I have been to so far.
Nice, yeah, I hear you, I thought I read that he switched it up a bit this year but I guess not. I did catch him giving a shout out to them when they are going through the lineup on the board. If I can't make it for first pitch tomorrow at 8, I have problems.
I hate Sunday night games when I have class nice and early on Monday's. Luckily I have two more weeks of classes and then finals week.
Looks like Colon is starting on Wednesday.

Yankees in the lead.
LHP CC Sabathia (6.1IP, 8H, 4ER, 2BB, 6K, 1HR) remained winless on the season…marks the third time in his
career he has not earned a win over his first four starts of a season (also 2008-first four; and 2003-first six).
RHP Joba Chamberlain allowed 1ER in1.0IP of relief…was just the second run he has allowed in seven relief
appearances at home this season (7.2IP).

2B Robinson Cano (1-for-4) homered for the second time in as many days…is batting .351 (13-for-37) with 5 doubles, 3HR and 9RBI over his current team-high nine-game hitting streak…in 29 career games without 3B Alex Rodriguez in the starting lineup, has hit .319 (36-for-113) with 29R, 9HR, 32RBI as the Yankees have gone 21-8…is a career .321 (35-for-109) batter in the No. 4 spot in the lineup with 8HR and 29RBI
C Russell Martin (2-for-3) hit his fourth HR of 2011, one shy of his total from last year (5HR, 97G) and three shy of his total from ‘09 (7HR, 143G). .

RHP Mariano Rivera (1.0IP, 1K) earned his seventh save in as many chances…marks the fewest games he has needed to reach seven saves in his career…had seven saves all of last April…has a win or save in eight of the Yankees’ nine victories this season…has not allowed a run in 8.1IP, holding opponents to a .143 average (4-for-28).

Pretty damn good start...now if Swish would just hit a homer already!
Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?
I think the closer position is a bunch of bullshit, but this guy is the exception. He changes the entire complexion of the game.

All you have to do is look at the number of guys who led their teams in saves since Rivera became closer in 1997.

I am sure, miserable here in Philly and didn't look too great up there
nice win
