QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ May 17, 2016 -> 08:33 PM) LOL of course he can't pitch around that error. Thanks Saladino. Good throw gets him It was a good throw...unfortunate that it hit the runner. He would have been out otherwise.

Rodon needs to throw a fastball first pitch every at bat right down the middle. He just cannot get ahead of hitters. It's very taxing working from behind all the time.

Carlos, attack. Quit trying to toy and attack. Get ahead in the count for Pete's sake.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 17, 2016 -> 08:20 PM) Amazed at how few people are at the game It's only the first inning, might fill up a bit more. Doubt it though.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ May 17, 2016 -> 10:00 AM) I'm blacked out. SON OF A b****. Blackouts are horrible. Yeah...mlb.tv sucks in that regard. I'm in Michigan so anytime they play Detroit I will be blacked out. It's been nice they haven't played them yet, but when they do, it will suck lol.

Nice 10 game homestand against not so great teams. I would be satisfied with 6-4, thrilled with anything better than that. I agree with these posts so far as well, it is time for Rodon to let his stuff do the talking rather than trying to ace those corners.

That's what happens when you don't score with runners on 2nd and 3rd with no one out.

This is really embarassing

This is pretty embarrassing

Hawk said we have a 12 game scoreless streak not a 12 game errorless streak lol

That was a big first pitch to Beltran

Sands on deck for melky

QUOTE (SonofaRoache @ May 14, 2016 -> 02:15 PM) Jackson and Abreu would have reached base had they just not swung. That slider is nasty but it's not a strike. Most nasty sliders aren't strikes, and on purpose. Hitters swing and miss at them. Easier to say they should just have laid off. Hard to actually do it

Man. I know these pitchers are tougher than the average pitcher, but these swings look kind of pathetic.

Guys, Betances is nasty and hard to hit. He is spot on with his pitches right now. Hitting those corners with the curve and blowing them away with the fastball.

I have a feeling someone on the Sox is gonna surprise us with a bomb

I think those curves should have been strikes to lawrie

Here comes the magical 7th inning

Ah gotcha. Well the way he pitched tonight he will be just fine

Why are they takng Nova out?

Yankees are throwing the leather around. Making some nice plays in the infield

Look at that nice .381 OPB by Avila

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 13, 2016 -> 07:52 PM) Hawk had to Google Jimmy Rollins to figure out how good he was. Yeah I heard that. How do you not know how good Rollins was? Especially as a 70 year old commentator...

Chris is pitching to contact because he trusts this defense to make the plays, unlike the other teams he has been on
