    Yanks game isn't on MLB Extra Innings tonight. Damn! Was looking forward to seeing Hughes pitch.

    As far as the bloody sock, I actually went to the HOF last summer and saw the sock. Unfortunatley I didn't get a picture of it, but I did snap this one. ;)

    Al Leiter is calling the game w/Michael Kay.

    Hughes' 1st pitch was a ball to Alex Rios, who has now just gotten a hit.

    Yeah he fits right in :)

    Edit: Then he threw a 94mph fastball for a strike out. Not bad.

    Uh oh..Vernon Wells hit RBI double

    Blue Jays lead 1-0

    They have Hughes on a pitch count..




    Now it's 2-0 Blue Jays, bottom of 1

    Derek is not in the ballgame! Yipes :-(

    Its a safe link. Aaron Boone's bat he used to hit the game winning HR vs the Sox in the playoffs. The HOF is a great place for Yankee fans. I was in awe.

    Here are a bunch more pics. The plaques are kinda redundant, but there is a lot of other stuff too: http://sports.webshots.com/album/554481876TwRVer

    Boone! Man those are cool pics.

    I know people who were at that ALCS game. I still get goose bumps when I see the highlights...that was one of the greatest games ever.

    You sure didn't miss much in last night's game. I guess you can't see tonight's game either? It's 2-0 Red Sox, end of 3. Youkilis? (sp?) hit a 2 run homer off Andy.
    Ugh..

    Did you see Derek on David Letterman's top 10 list last night? Go to David Letterman's website, you can see it if you missed it...

    it's their worst 21-game start since 1991 (7-14). their first seven-game losing streak since ending the 2000 regular season with seven straight losses...

  • Better to suck now than in August or September. Hold tight, they'll be fine. I wouldn't be shocked to see Clemens here and Guidry gone sooner than later, though

    I fell asleep in the 8th last night. Probably a good thing. At least I didnt get to see it get real ugly. Extra Innings was carrying the NESN feed too so that would have been even more unpleasant to watch. I still can't believe Andy fell apart like that last night. You could really see the frustration. It looked like he and Posada were having a lot of trouble communicating. And Posada looked like the old Jorgey who couldn't catch the baseball.
    Still waiting for this team to have that big defining moment that results in the turn of the tide. They need an emotional lift. Probably tonight Karstens will give it to them in the form of a 2 hit shutout. ;)

    Karstens - broken fibula - DL

    Maybe Igawa's performance yesterday was that symbolic turning of the tide we have been waiting for. Early start today for Wang vs. Torres. Lets go Yanks and take 2 outa 3!

    Interestingly enough, April games tend to count the same in the standings as August games or September games.

    and in a surprise to nobody, we have a missive from general steinbrenner..

    "The season is still very young, but up to now the results are clearly not acceptable to me or to Yankee fans. However, Brian Cashman, our general manager, Joe Torre, our manager, and our players all believe that they will turn this around quickly.

    "I believe in them. I am here to support them in any way to help them accomplish this turnaround. It is time to put excuses and talk away. It is time to see if people are ready to step up and accept their responsibilities. It is time for all of them to show me and the fans what they are made of.

    "Let's get going. Let's go out and win and bring a world championship back to New York. That's what I want."

    The Skankees, with the most expensive LOSING baseball team, is really great for all of MLB. This is something I think fan of every team can support! Baseball is better when the Skankees are sucking hind-tit.

    just wait until our pitching is healthy and we get The Rocket in July. They will be unstoppable.

    I hate to say it, but anyone who believes the Yankees ARE the team that we have watched the past few weeks is crazy.

    They will be there in the end, as always (losing to the Sox in the ALCS in 5 games :) ).

    I do love this losing streak though. Yankee fans want to fire everyone and anyone when they start losing. The guys at work want to fire everybody from Cashman to the guy selling beer in section 4. It gets ridiculous. Lets fire the guy that has won 9 straight AL Easts ????
    All that's sacred, comes from youth....dedications, naive and true.

    Thats what you get with Yankee fans. It was the same way with A-Rod until this year. He wasn't performing and wasn't liked. He has a legendary start to the season and now hes worshiped by every Yankee fan. The season is still young so don't count the Yankees out of the playoffs yet.
