EDIT: Nevermind...gameday is wrong.

I didn't know that Jay Marriotti had another job?

Dammit. Someone just made some popcorn at work. That should be outlawed.

Why wasn't Thornton in for Teahen?

Teahan has taken up the Mike Sweeney mantle.

If All MacDougal ever did for this team was retire Sweeney late in games for the next 2 seasons, I'd be absolutely thrilled.

 

Still thrilled? :P

And if you say otherwise, your a chicken little bandwagon fan.

this game has started very similar to marks last outing against the royals in KC and in the end if he turns that kind of performance out again today the sox win this game

as i said this game is all too similar, mark leaves with a 4-2 lead sox blow the lead win it 5-4 in extras, lets hope the pen doesnt blow it again

can mark teahen play left field?

 

if so we need to go pick him up

EMINEM IS OUT OF GAS OZZIE, TAKE HIM OUT.

Did Farmer just say 1 and 2 the count. Belt-high fastball right down the middle and the count is 2 and 2?

As obsessed as Ozzie is with the R/L matchup, yes, I'm still thrilled with MMac's performance, because there's no good reason not to use Thornton there unless he's hurt. Or hell, even Cotts.

The Sox haven't blown the lead. They are still winning. Have some optimism for crying out loud.

He's definitely not a 2 inning type pitcher, especially after throwing the night before.

I never thought I'd see the day where we'd have to bring in our closer for a 4 out save in order to split a 4 game home series with one of baseball's worst teams.

Awesome. Bobby in for a +1.0 inning save. That usually works out really well.

Thornton should have been in to face Thornton, and then Jenks gets the righties. Instead, Jenks has to come in and face a dead fastball hitter with the tying run on base.

As usual, great use of the bullpen by us.

Forgot the green. :P

 

Just razzing him/her since they were so optimistic after the 1-0 Royals lead.

Uribe gives us a scare.

Give me a f***ing heart attack Juan

Well Bobby induces the ground ball with a good hammer, and Uribe JUST gets Sanders after the double bobble. Hopefully Jenks can get it done in the 9th too.

By the way, the Yankees officially lost, 12-2
