ALCS Game 2: Swing Game
Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees, Oct 17, 2009 7:57 PM EDT
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 :(

Dude.
Go to bed for an hour. Set an alarm.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
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.
please stop talking about it
I want to put a disappointing loss behind me and focus on a win tonight.

I'm from the West Coast anyway
and frequently find Notre Dame overrated. This team, however, appears to actually be pretty good. Clausen is the real deal. USC is just better than most.
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.

Pac-10 is tougher than advertised
And it’s just tough to go undefeated.
Hopefully they play today
it could ruin their plans of a 3 man rotation w/ a rain out. Come on get this game in! It doesn’t look like it’s raining right now though.
If we win again tonight

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.

Does McCarver have to do this game?
can’t they get a real announcer in there and not a 90 year old Yankees hater?
We have Joe Buck
He at least seems to like the Yankees, even if he can’t really say much of anything in a way that gets me in any way excited.
Joe Buck hates the Yankees....
he only likes McCarver…..

Gah...now it's McCarver on "the Yankees win only because the other teams screw up"
Although I got to see the popup play again. :)
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.
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 think I'm ready to get this game started.
But I’m not shaking as much as I was yesterday.

by SBakerTheTouchdownMaker on Oct 17, 2009 7:56 PM EDT reply actions
that's what I'm hoping for
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.

It is high! it is far! it is caught on the warning track.
For you folks not listening to Sterling.
we all thought that was gone too
wind took it back. would you rather listen to McCarver than sterling?
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.
Just mocking Sterling’s ridiculously wrong pronouncements on almost homeruns.
yea it is pretty funny
he’s such a goof. But he calls an exciting game. I give him props for that. If only he could get a better partner.
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?

Wow
I feel like I just had my innocence robbed a little with that whole 93-86 mph thing.
I wish they hadn't
It changed the way I view baseball. Guys don’t hit 100 mph fastball, they hit a 95 mph fastball.
damn. i go to the bathroom and i miss something.
what happened?
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.
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?
oh wow...
damn.. i kinda wished i didnt know that. ruins the whole "fast"ball effect.
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?
that is a scary thought
and Greg Maddux. He won 350 games with a 60 mph fastball? Impressive. And Mussina last year.
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.
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.
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.

now Molina is leading off. Even if he gets on (through some small miracle) he’s a blob of cholesterol in the arteries of the basepaths.

It should be a basic skill
like catching a fly ball
Just woke up guys
How’s AJ? I know his pitch count is high but is he dealing?
he was dealing until last inning
Then he got really wild.

jeter always puts the ball in play
and its usually well placed, its just the way things go sometimes. hell never strike out
why rip on molina
he plays once a week and is solid behind the plate and can come through when you really need him too. give him a break
because it's the post-season
He’s not a power hitter, he’s not a contact hitter, and he’s slow on the bases.
Posada’s bat is essential here.
If he were good, he’d play more than once a week. He’s not. He’s adequate. Right now, we don’t need adequate. We need good.
That’s not a bash. He’s okay. He succeeded in this case. yay. Then DJ and Damon didn’t get it done.
thats not true
he scored two big run yesterday and came up with some clutch hits to get on base. Can’t hit 1000.
definitely...

+1
Now people must think he’s unclutch because he hasn’t hit any HRs this series. Time to correct that, I think.
New thread.
this one has a bad vibe to it now
Man that was a weak offensive inning...
