PREGAME NOTES:
- Joba Chamberlain is essentially a full-fledged starter now with a pitch count limit of roughly 100-105 pitches.
- Yanks are 19-9 since the return of A-Rod to the starting lineup and 9-3 since Jorge Posada's return.
- Johnny Damon is hitting an astounding .446 / .488 / .571 since May 20 and has raised his BA from .250 to .332.
- Chamberlain has obviously never faced the Padres.
- Josh Banks is a lifetime 0-0, 4.50 ERA, 2.00 WHIP in two relief appearances against the Yanks.
- Yanks' hitters vs. Banks can be viewed here.

Joba is sick
96 mph, 4 inches of break.
You guys who are watching on TV tell me if you think you see the sinker.

13 pitches, 11 fastballs.. between 94-99..

Anybody
know where i can at least LISTEN to the game online??

Nope
MLB.com has all radio and video broadcasts locked down behind their paywall. If you can’t get the game on tv or radio, you’ve got to pay them.

Yep
When I was at school in Maryland I had to follow all the games on Gameday- it certainly takes all the tension out of the game.

Nice
There’s not really a way to tell his fastballs apart on Gameday. I’m guessing the sinker is 94, the straight fastball 97.

He needs a quick inning in the 5th.

not quite the quick inning you were hoping for...

I understand he is on a pitch count but what the hell is Joe doing? Let him finish the inning.
by macguyver on Jun 19, 2008 2:58 PM EDT 0 recs
I don't know either
Maybe he thought Joba was putting a lot of strain in his pitches?

I think they are just being very strict with his pitch count
He was at 100 pitches and his limit was 105. I guess he didn’t want to chance Tony Clark having an extended AB.
Plus, although Joba threw 88 pitches last time out – he essentially threw 80 pitches at full tilt because 8 of them were intentional walks.

That's a lead
Veras 7, Farnsworth 8, Mo 9?

If Banks stays in SD for awhile
He’s going to be a pretty good pitcher for that team. It’s a pitcher’s paradise and he’s got good stuff.

Ugh...
If Veras gets out of this right now, Farnsworth will face the middle of the order in the 8th.
A handful of insurance runs would be spiffy.

This game
feels like it has been far too exciting. I keep waiting for the offense to show up. I’ve gotten spoiled the last several games.

I'm not going to do it justice but....
He was talking about Rick Cerone and his 80s hairstyle with a spongy afro. He then said that Paul O’Neill has a similar 80s haircut til this day and keeps it that way hoping it will come back into style.

Earlier in the game...
Kay and Flaherty were fighting back back and forth and going on about Fordham for a good minute or so.
Kay then asked what Cone thought about their argument and he said “Hey, we have a game here to broadcast.”

Farnsworth’s ERA at home is 5.28 with 6 homers in 17 IP. It’s like 3.12 on the road.
Good grief. Even Igawa has a far better ratio than that.

Good thing you're not listening to Sterling
He’s close to slipping into verse over Farnsies slider. “What a great pitch”
I feel sick

I know he scares us to death BUT
Farnsworth is doing a fair job. And giving the run when he has some slack and posting a 0 when we needed it seems good.

He did a good job today
But he’s been terrible again this season. He’s given up 9 homers in just 32 IP. That just unbelievably bad.
