Looks like they adjusted Hudson's positioning a little there!

Billingsley struggling with command and PK swings on a 2-0 borderline strike leading to the DP, he's been pretty frustrating to watch the past few weeks. And the body language he shows doesnt help either.

Per graphic earlier in game. PK's been 10/30 last 8 games going into tonight.

Humber back out there again

 

They can pinch for him in the 6th if he can by some miracle of god get through this inning.

Rightfully so

2 down...give that man another start

Ohman up.

Really good slider there by Humber. That looked like what he was throwing in the Seattle game.

That was one of Humber's better pitches all of tonight on the K

Two 14 inning games in the same day. Pretty rare.

 

NY/Washington, and then Ozzie's team blew a 3-0 lead against TB.

 

 

Interestingly, Greg's old friend DeWayne Wise saved the game for the Yankees by throwing out the potential winning run in the bottom of the 8th. The Yankees must love former White Sox: Freddy Garcia, Wise, Swisher, Boone Logan, Chris Stewart, Jason Nix, Andruw Jones.

 

A lot of former White Sox. But I'm glad Wise is still contributing.

The jury is very much still out on whether Williams should be retained next year. The Danks contract and Molina pitching like a middle-reliever many thought he was is enough justification to go in another direction if this team falls out of the race.

 

 

Williams won't be fired because of Molina. It's possible they had some indication something was wrong with Santos (or was coming soon) and wanted to dump him as quickly as possible after signing that extension. Or they just didn't think that he would hold up long-term as the closer.

 

If Danks does have major shoulder problems, it will be just one more reason why JR will never give a pitcher a contract of longer than 3 years and they'll try to survive with the Phil Humbers and Quintanas off the retread pile.

 

But signing Danks instead of Buehrle wasn't a mistake in and of itself.

good inning by Humber

Somehow, he's gonna be in line for a win.

Humber!! Nice inning, can he go 9?

that was nice

CSN reported that Danks saw Dr Youkum today and there are no issues in shoulder.

 

get a runner so you can ph for Humber.

He said there was no structural damage. There is definitely something wrong with Danks though which is why he is still going to the doctor on Monday.

Surprised there wasn't an Albert Belle moment there

Ugh....stealing......now Humber might be out there again.

Just giving away outs tonight. Alexei with a terrible slide.

again nothing done with the lead off man on base

hey ozzie stop giving a way outs especially when your lead off hitter would lead off the 7th that was moronic.

again nothing done with the lead off man on base

 

I wonder if that was a blown sign by Hudson

Escobar in at 3rd

Can Humber throw another good inning?
