ALCS Game 2: Swing Game

Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees, Oct 17, 2009 7:57 PM EDT


I can't tell you how excited and surprised I was to see Matsui go the opposite way!

Peter Morgan - AP

I can't tell you how excited and surprised I was to see Matsui go the opposite way!

Joe Torre used to always talk about the importance of Game 2, and it's hard to argue with his logic.  It's either the game you take back momentum and even things up, or like AJ tonight, it's the game you want to step on the other guy's throat.

Yankee pitchers have allowed 7 runs in 4 games, a stretch of dominance we haven't seen in pinstripes since the first 4 games of the 2000 ALCS.

There's pressure on the starter when the whole staff is pitching well to keep it going.  AJ was an escape artist last Friday, finding big Ks and big plays when he needed them.  (Speaking of which, I still haven't found a good photo of Jeter's game saver against the Twins).

But AJ is going to backed up by the best Yankee defense since... maybe 1998?  We had 7 years of Jason Giambi.  Knoblauch had the yips by 1999.  I'm not just talking about highlight reel plays like Tex's last night.  I mean, these Yankees cover a lot of ground in the infield and outfield, boast a strong group of arms (except Damon), and are pretty quick on the double play.

They'll be opposed by the red hot Joe Saunders, who came of the DL and won 7 starts in a row before charging into the postseason.  He's a sinkerballer, so hopefully the raw weather gives him some trouble.

The weather is again the enemy, so hopefully AJ can stay warm and dry despite the 50% chance of rain.

Yes. I think they’ll get it in, but I won’t promise they’ll start at 8.

Nooooooooo

I’ve been up all night waiting for this game. It’s supposed to start at 6 a.m. here (it’s 5 in the morning right now) and I don’t know if I’ll have the strength to stay up if the game starts late :(

Ordinarily, I'd do that

But I’d kick myself all day if I missed the game :) You’re right though. I think I’ll get some sleep and hope I wake up. Maybe set multiple alarms.

Oh, and thanks for the preview :) I’ve been trying to find stats on how many Game 1 winners went on to win the ALCS but didn’t have much luck. But the stats on 2-0 should be awfully convincing :D

Terrible clock management at the end

They cost themselves at least one play by running 12 seconds off before that late throwaway. Just stupid.

they're better than they have been for a while

But they’re still not a top-20 team, which is the bare minimum that’s expected of them.

by nyyrocks29 on Oct 17, 2009 7:43 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I kind of agree

Use your best players as soon as possible, and as often as possible. He’s counting on Saunders to keep the Yankees in the park, but the wind will (probably) take care of that. I know he couldn’t have planned for that, but that’s kind of the point – just put your best team on the field as often as you can, and trust in them to win.

I actually don't mind Buck that much

he has no entusiasm, but at least he isn’t biassed either way and he knows how to announce a baseball game (none of this, “fisted for a base it to left. caught!”).

His dad was better

Jack and Harry were basically the voices of baseball for like 40 years.

true

his dad was a lot better. His dad was a natural. But Joe Buck is a hell of a lot better than the rest of the postseason National announcers. I don’t like him, but he’s really the only National broadcaster that I don’t despise.

by nyyrocks29 on Oct 17, 2009 7:53 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I may have complained about this before ...

but I’ll complain again. I don’t get why the networks feel they have to have a “big name” announcer. Does Tim McCarver’s presence make even one person more likely to watch the game? Does Joe Morgan’s? Ex-players occasionally have interesting insights, but I have to figure those guys make mid-six figures. Can’t that money be better spent elsewhere? How about starting the game 20 minutes earlier and getting rid of a few pre-game commercials?

I sort of expected ND to lose. And of all the teams, I think the Giants can most afford a loss. That said, 3-1 sounds pretty good right about now.

No, I'd agree - my thought that it was gone.

But McCarver v. Sterling is like being fed into a chipper or forced to cut off your lower extremities and eat them. No winners here.

true

But we don’t get paid to inform people who aren’t watching the game and are relying on our descriptions what’s going on in the game. Is it too much to ask that he keep his exuberance in check until he knows it’s a home run?

they showed that Burnett's fastball

comes out of his hand at 95 miles an hour. But when it gets to the plate, it’s only going in the mid 80s. I never knew that.

by nyyrocks29 on Oct 17, 2009 8:20 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

See, now that's the kind of stuff we should hear more about.

Why don’t we get this stuff more often? And McCarver’s a former CATCHER. He especially knows this. Why has he been holding out on us with this stuff?

by typhical on Oct 17, 2009 8:22 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Here's a scary thought.

Jamie Moyer is clocked in the low 80s or so? So his “fastball” shows up really around the high 60s?

by mrljdavid on Oct 17, 2009 8:22 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

that is a scary thought

and Greg Maddux. He won 350 games with a 60 mph fastball? Impressive. And Mussina last year.

by nyyrocks29 on Oct 17, 2009 8:26 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

not really

thats true for all pitches. If a changeup comes out of your hand at 80, then it’s probably going at the mid 70s by the time it gets to the plate. Not only the fastball.

by nyyrocks29 on Oct 17, 2009 8:23 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Turns out a pitch slows down considerably

from release point to the batter, and the radar guns measure release point speeds. The example was that AJ’s 93 mph 2-seamer was going 86 by the time it reached the plate.

by GMan83201 on Oct 17, 2009 8:20 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

The radar gun captures the speed of the ball when it leaves your hand.

Not what it is when it catches the plate.

So a “93 mph” fastball reaches the plate at 86.

by PortlandYankee on Oct 17, 2009 8:21 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

you guys act like 86mph at the plate is slow......
