PrintBoston Red Sox at New York Yankees, Apr 16, 2008 7:05 PM EDT
Boston Red Sox
Jacoby Ellsbury, CF
Dustin Pedroia, 2B
David Ortiz, DH
Manny Ramirez, LF
Kevin Youkilis, 3B
J.D. Drew, RF
Jason Varitek, C
Sean Casey, 1B

New
York Yankees
Melky Cabrera, LF
Derek Jeter, SS
Bobby Abreu, RF
Álex Rodríguez, 3B
Hideki Matsui, LF
Jorge Posada, DH
Jason Giambi, 1B
Robinson Cano, 2B
Chad Moeller, C
Chien-Ming Wang, RHP (3-0, 1.23 ERA)
An interesting note through the first 15 games; Yanks are 8-0 when their starters pitch at least 6 innings and 0-7 when they do not.
Damon gets the night off tonight against his former idiots and Posada has DH duties once again. According to Ed Price, Posada thinks he'll be able to start behind the plate tomorrow, which would be just the sixth time this season.
Tonight's pitching matchup is a rematch of Game #11 just last Friday when Wang tossed a masterpiece in a complete game 4-1 victory over the Red Sox at Fenway Park.
Clay Buchholz makes his second career start against the Yanks and was very good in his own right last Friday (6 IP, 1 ER, 3 H).
Chien-Ming
Wang has pitched well against the Red Sox throughout his career at Yankee Stadium (3-2, 3.00 ERA in 6 starts).
Yanks career numbers vs. Buchholz can be viewed here. Red Sox career numbers vs. Wang can be
viewed here.
Finally, here's some good news regarding Harlan Chamberlain. Pete Abe reports that he is doing "significantly better" and is now sitting up in bed. Good to hear.

Put the shirt back, just to be safe
But 3 hits in 10 ABs, isn’t really coming around just yet. It’s also worth noting that he hasn’t walked since the Detroit series- I suspect teams are going to pitch to him more aggressively (I know the Yanks did).
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Anybody else
think this is an odd game for Damon to take off, considering he had two hits on Monday?
1 grounder for Wang.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Until Posada can catch
this is going to happen for another several games.
I wouldn’t sit Matsui because he’s the only Yankee who has hit from the start. Posada had the night off last night.
Now Ed Price says....
that Posada is unlikely to start behind the plate tomorrow:
After making 40 throws of about 150 feet during batting practice, Jorge Posada was ruled out for tomorrow night.“He’s not there yet,” manager Joe Girardi said.
Wow
Anybody see the picture of Buchholtz on MLB.com’s frontpage? He’s looking far to his left, and it looks like he has not pupil or iris in his eyes. Demonic.

Looking at Gameday
Wang threw Manny two sinkers in nearly the same spot. No surprise Manny hit that.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
That's my boy!
Contract year baby!
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Here's a question....
What do you do about RF next season? I let Abreu walk and find a stopgap for one season until Tabata or Jackson is ready in 2010.
Cue the theme

took a chimp to lunch with him to disprove evolution…Id explain more, but its not like it would ever make any sense.
Is it just me...
...or are these Procede commercials annoying as hell? Who is this Gisepe Franco guy and why should I care? And is Gary Busey really his best customer?
he's not a good enough actor to make
that hug look real

Busey is a real nutjob too
I saw him practically attack Jennifer Garner and almost squeezed the life of her. The best part was that she didn’t even know who he was.

Update from Pete Abe from Paul O'Neill
"What can I say? The fans have always been unbelievable to me there. I don’t really know how to explain it. It makes you feel good that the fans still think of you as wearing that number."
Sounds like O’Neill was very Jeter-esque with his approach and didn’t want to “tell the fans what to do.”
I've got steak,
all I need are some strikes from Wang to make this a perfect night.

This sucks
Wang’s like Superman to me, so it’s weird to see him not pitch well, no matter who he’s pitching against.
Nice play
to cut off the run. Very level headed of Wang.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Off to a debate party
This is what I get for joining the College Democrats…an invitation to watch the 341st presidential debate tonight while the Boston-NY game is still on…ugh. Good thing for mobile internet. Oh well, at least we’re getting pizza.
Wang got out of that inning well btw. He’s a star.
Question from a Sox fan
I’m going to the game tomorrow, sitting in the bleachers. It’s my first time since I was about 12. If I wear my Sox hat, will someone start a fight with me?
I mean, I’d like to wear my colors, but not if it’s going to cause me problems. I’m pretty easygoing, and I’m not about to start a fight, but if someone dumps beer on me or my wife for wearing a hat I’ll break their nose. I’d rather not spend the night in the Tombs.
Any opinions would be appreciated. Thanks.
Manny ain't the only bad man.
No beer in the bleachers
You’ll get booed as you walk in, but other than that you should be fine. I sat next to a BoSox fan in the CF bleachers in 2004, and everything was fine.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
If you're really scared
I’ll take your ticket for you.

It's a natural talent

But
if good things start happening for the Red Sox, just clap quietly. Don’t draw any attention to yourself.
"Well, that kind of puts a damper on even a Yankees win."
-- Phil Rizzuto after hearing about the Pope's death
Giambi had a good AB there
But after that, Buchholtz settled down.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Wang got away with that
in more ways than one.
That location is not usually called a strike and he hung it as well. The only reason that ball wasn’t hit a mile is because Manny must’ve been looking for the fastball.
Was it hung?
Gameday says it was 87 MPH, 7” break, which lines up with his other sliders.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Watching the Sox broadcast
Jerry Remy was surprised he wasn’t ejected after he pointed at the ump twice.

was right in saying that it was not balls and strikes, but arguing “You need to call the pitch quicker because I look like an idiot walking halfway to firstbase before you call strike or ball”

I don't believe in clutch
But Jeter makes me wish I did.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Haha
In high pressure situations Jeter doesn’t sweat, he exudes “Driven.”
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
That makes me laugh
Like Jeter would ever be caught dead in that POS. A Mustang is probably more like it.
I guess neither kid handled their first start
in enemy territory very well.
Hughes on Sunday. Buchholz tonight.
I thought it would have been
hard for both…but it’s april – so better they get over the nerves now than in september
by detroit yankee on Apr 16, 2008 8:51 PM EDT up reply actions
I hate to give Peter Gammons credit
but I heard him say that he asked Donnie Baseball why Hughes looked so good in relief in the playoffs last season, and Mattingly said “It’s the first time he went out there and didn’t have to be Phil Hughes.”
For both these guys, it’s tough to be dubbed the “Future” and the guy who will keep the team competitive for the next decade.

Albaladejo is going to pitch 2 innings tonight
Of course, I said that last night when Pettitte was getting knocked around.
I hope he does
Because I’m sure he’ll be great, and maybe they’ll release Farnsworth rather than send Jonny A down.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
I'm more worried
about Wang, who has loaded the bases again.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Ugly
The win is important. Let’s go
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)
To my thinking
going from Wang to Ohley is the wrong move because there’s not enough change in the “look.”
Course, strikes would be a change tonight, so here’s hoping.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Albaladejo should be pitching right now
A contrast to Wang as you said and Ohlendorf is most effective in one or two inning stints. He’s more of a set-up guy than a long reliever.
You think he'll be used for more than an inning or two?
I’ll just be happy if he can get out of this inning without further damage.
No, he'll go 2 innings max
But I guess the good thing is that if he keeps getting the job done in these situations, he’ll earn Girardi’s trust for pressure situations.
It's not the pen
that’s struggled, it was the starter (again).
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Alright
Time to get ‘em back. Is Tavarez coming back out? That was a ridiculously long inning.
28 pitches for Ohlendorf- I bet he’s done.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
The people
who predicted Cano would slack off with the long-term contract, seem to be wrong.
A Ribbie for Robbie!
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
That's why they play the games...
After last week, did anyone expect this game would be tied 9 to 9 in the fifth?
Wow
Walking the 9 hitter. Tito has to be fuming.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
I'd sit him
right now. Pinch run Damon. There’s got to be a way to stop that.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
So long as it looked better
than that David Wright slide a couple years ago, I’m ok with it.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
And why would you steal 3rd
in that situation?
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Did you know that Johnny Gomes
Had a heart attack? I heard that for the first time when they played the Rays the other day…
Really?
Recreational drugs or PEDs?
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Waldman just did too
And I can’t believe O’Neill didn’t say “It’s no slight to me” even if he does want his number retired.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
The only part of the story I hadn’t heard was that both Jeter and Posada told him that it doesn’t make sense to antagonize the fans. That’s why Hawkins ultimately gave it up.
Sounds like Posada, Jeter, and O’Neill all took the same class on how to deal with the fans.
The class was titled
“Win and don’t say anything stupid”
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
I don't want to open a can of worms
but Jeter could have helped out A-Rod more than once in recent years. He just chose not to.
Im still not sure how I feel about it
But I think Pete Abe was a bit sanctimonious about the whole ordeal.
I don't mind Varitek
Since Posada has been the superior catcher their entire careers- that’s always been an easy argument to win with my BoSox friends.
Youkilis, on the other hand, I despise.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Whew!
Please, sir, may I have some more runs?
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."

I know - I meant the recent dustup
over o’neills number
by detroit yankee on Apr 16, 2008 10:21 PM EDT up reply actions
Part of it was the Yanks' fault, though
because they purposely didn’t give the number out for several years, which seemed to indicate that O’Neill’s number was going to be retired by the team.
Which is par for the course for them
lately their PR skills are severely lacking
by detroit yankee on Apr 16, 2008 10:24 PM EDT up reply actions
Indeed
They kinda screwed up the whole Ortiz jersey dust up too. Deny, deny, deny and then “oh yeah, it did happen.”
What I dont get about that is
Ok, you knew you denied it through and through, why have video cameras there?
They heard through the workers that it was true
I don’t think yankees brass knew it for fact when story first came out
by detroit yankee on Apr 16, 2008 10:29 PM EDT up reply actions
In that one though -
I don’t think Levine knew that when he made his sunday comment - they got it through the union grapevine so to speak (which if NY unions are like detroit unions are very very slow)...but who the hell knows…makes for great story if these two teams make the playoffs - you KNOW fox is sitting on that picture
by detroit yankee on Apr 16, 2008 10:28 PM EDT up reply actions
If ESPN and FOX had their way....
It would be Yanks/Red Sox in the ALCS every season. They like ratings more than anything else.
I think
what most people found troubling was who it was. Most likely Hawkins will not be with the team next year. Of all the numbers he could take, why 21? If it was one of the young guns, as many here suggested, it wouldnt have been nearly as big a deal.

He’s much better than most other baseball announcers. I tried listening to a Phillies broadcast and it was terrible. I had the TV going in the background, and I actually had no idea the Mets had won the game with a walk-off single until I looked up 15 mins later and saw that the game’s highlights were on. Zero emotion whatsoever coming from those guys.
YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOARD....
YESSS! I will fully agree he is one of the most energetic baseball voices in baseball today.
