Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
HIP HIP...JORGE!!!!
Posada hits the first pitch of the inning into the right field seats. 1-1 ballgame.
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
Matsui grounds a single right back up the middle...a Cano hit would be big here with 2 weaker hitters coming up.
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
Cano pops out to Drew in shallow LF, one down.
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
Botched hit-and-run probably, Cairo swings and misses and Matsui is thrown out at 2nd.
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
And now Cairo doubles into the RF corner...ugh, coulda put 2 on or scored a run.
Man on 2nd, 2 down for WIL NIEVES
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
mwahahahaha...Nieves walks on 5 pitches. 1st and 2nd, 2 outs for Damon.
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
Damon hits a high flyout to RF, inning over.
1-1 after 2.
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
Top 3rd
Mussina with a nicely placed fastball on the outside corner to strike out Quentin, one out.
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
Byrnes pops out to Robbie Cano, 2 down.
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
Interesting note: Tony Clark is 2 FOR 35 against Mike Mussina, the second worst batter-vs-pitcher matchup (Brad Ausmus is 2 for 40 against somebody.)
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
Jackson goes down looking, another K for Mussina.
1-1 going to the bottom 3rd.
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
Jeter works a leadoff walk, much to the probable delight of John Sterling.
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
Abreu grounds into a fielders choice to Livan, Jeter out at 2nd.
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
The first pitch to A-Rod...
IT IS HIGH!
IT IS FAR!
IT IS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE
A monster shot of the LF upper deck facade.
3-1 Yanks.
Re: 6/13 - Diamondbacks at Yankees (Return of the Yankees Game Thread!)
Posada works a beautiful walk...Livan threw a 3-2 66 mph curveball just low and he didnt swing, that's plate discipline right there.
