Yanks at Toronto(Sept. 16-18)

[nyjunc]

Randy Johnson gave up a 3 run HR in the 1st then was ejected in the 2nd after arguing balls and strikes. The Ump looked to be out of line in giving him the quick hook but Scott proctor came on and has done well so far and the Yanks O has been on fire w/ Cano hitting 2 HRs and right now after 4 the Yanks lead 11-3.

Thanks starting the series thread...it seemed when I did it we would lose 2 out 3 or worse. I must be bad luck.

5th Inning 11-3 good guys. Way to pick the Big Unit after an early ejection. Hopefully he comes out a bit stronger next outing.

The pen is imploding, a bases clearing double makes it 11-7 Yanks. Also in the 4th oak and Bos are tie at 1 and cle is up 3-1 in the 8th.

[nyjunc]

At Bos it's 1st and 3rd w/ 1 out for oak in a 1-1 game.

[nyjunc]

Oak now leads 2-1 w/ still 1st and 3rd and 1 out.

[nyjunc]

After 6 it's 11-7 Yanks, it would be nice to add a few so we don't wind up using Gordon or Mo tonight.

[nyjunc]

Sox get out w/o further damage, still 2-1 oak after 3 1/2.

[nyjunc]

oak survives a 1 out doble by Manny, after 4 still 2-1 Oak and Yanks squander 2nd and 3rd w/ 1 out as it remains 11-7 after 6 1/2.

Cle wins 3-1.

[RLA68]

I will tell you, the Chicago WhiteSox might be in some trouble. I can see Cleveland catching them. Cleveland has a steady diet of KC down the stretch.

[nyjunc]

Felix rodriguez is being lit up, it appears we won't be able to get away w/o pitching Gordon and Rivera. It's 11-8 now w/ a runner on 2nd and 0 out in the bot of the 7th.

[RLA68]

I hope the other starters give a little relief to our pen. Randy really killed us tonight with getting tossed early.

I just want to win...heck with being idealistic.

[nyjunc]

I still think Chi will hold on, it's natural to have a letdown w/ such a huge lead.

Another double and it's 11-9, we had better not blow this game.

[RLA68]

Chicago always finds a way to choke, IMO.

Ditto. Putting 11 runs on the board including a 11-3 lead, we better get the "W".

I still think Chi will hold on, it's natural to have a letdown w/ such a huge lead.

Another double and it's 11-9, we had better not blow this game.

[nyjunc]

and it's 11-10.

After 5 still 2-1 Oak.
