Damon will score on a single to left here. Make a big pitch Javy. Jeter will take a called 3rd.
If he keeps throwing that outside fastball, Jeter's going to crush one the opposite way.

Not to sound like Hawk, but there are two different zones.
The 2nd pitch to Thome almost hit posadas shoelasses and was called. And then Javy hits the corner and blue sticks his nose at it.
And with Vazquez having no leeway on the corners, the Yanks are smart enough to wait for a pitch over the heart of the plate.

No, no he wasn't. He took a bad line when running it down, but he wasn't on the warning track, nor was he playing too deep.
HE WAS EXTREMELY DEEP THERE! He plays everyone about 15 feet from the warning track.

cano did that again???? wth
Yep...you'd think maybe we'd shade him in a little bit in left field. It's amazing how many runs our corner outfielders have cost us this year.
A couple of hard hit outs. Mussina looked very hittable that inning. I really wish Dye was hitting 3rd on this team, but our 1-2 guys haven't gotten on consistently enough for that to be a good idea.

is there any team that dinks and doinks hits more than thte twins, no wonder they suck in the playoffs away from home.
Castillo and Punto are doing an amazing job at setting the table for their main guys.

Mack would have bounced that ball off of his ass, somehow.
That was actually a line drive that could have easily been misread.
QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Aug 11, 2006 -> 01:42 AM)
I was being a smartass. He didn't pitch in the postseason.
I don't know how anyone can watch our main guys who pitched so much last year and not think it has effected their arm strength.

Early observation that Vazquez's fastball has nowhere near the life/location that it did on Saturday.
Until that one! Huge out in this game in Giambi.
