after being hit with that wiffle ball?
I’m sure A-Rod takes his base.
DO WHAT JERRY HAIRSTON DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess Pedro's treating A-rod like Petitte's treating Werth
Very carefully.
I'll take it fo' sho'
Now time for Matsui to DRILL IT
Matsui was a little too quick on that one. Hard to slow down for an 86 mph fastball.

If They Put That Hu Pic On The Scoreboard While The Phils Bat
There will be a lot of guys striking out looking.
Now Arod can run.

Matsui. most underrated Yankee ever.

That’s a really good question. Let me think of who might be ahead of him.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
i always thought the 2nd time
Sierra was here, he was underrated.

How about Shane Spencer? He had his career week his first week of ’98 and people expected too much. But he really was a solid 4th outfielder/ platoon player.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
he's done after this series
But I’ll be sad to see him go.

Should we add a drink for every time Joe and Tim sound sad discussing the game? I love that sound.

It’s on the list.

He’s put himself in the disussion. Clearly the Yanks top hitter.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
If he’ll come back for $5M to be a bench player and DH 2-3 times a week. I suspect he gets a better offer.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
depending on the demands...
he’s done that a long time ago….
DO WHAT JERRY HAIRSTON DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Isn't that the definition of a DH?
A guy who hits but can’t play the field?
But he needed his knees drained twice this season and he didn’t play the field.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
They just said his name, they didn't fellate him
If you do it every time they say his name you might as well call 911 now…. BC I’m going to die of alcohol poisoning

Wow. I’m trying to decide if it’s a bad play on Gardner for being too close, but it hit the wall really oddly.

He did hold up, expecting it to bounce normally....

because that's what everyone dreams of
Bringing your team within 1 run in the third inning on a sacrifice fly in game 6 of the WS
"We're only going to score 17 points?"
Brett Gardner is the Poor Mans Williams
No, not Bernie, Gerald. I never realized how much Melky would be missed.
I don't know if you've heard...
But he wants the season to be over… It didn’t get much news coverage though, I can see how you could have missed it….

OK....out of my stupid faculty meeting!
And it’s 2-1! Too bad Gardy couldn’t corral that, though.
Didn't you look incredulously and tell them it's the World Series?
At least it ended early :)

tWorks for me.
I’m getting a little rally in my pants…
I do, I cant stand Gardner
He’s like Cody Ransom of the outfield. He cant hit, he cant field. He is a minor leaguer in the WS.
He looks lost.

One of those guys I always wished was a Yankee. Brilliant pitcher.

by ProfessorBigelow on Nov 4, 2009 8:56 PM EST up reply actions
i still think he was the best of the era
better than Maddux, Johnson, Schiling, and Clemens (on roids).
by SBakerTheTouchdownMaker on Nov 4, 2009 8:56 PM EST up reply actions
Schilling isn’t in the class with the other guys.
I’d take Maddux over anyone else on your list. I think Maddux over Pedro (but I reserve the right to change my mind on review of the numbers).
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
what i meant was Pedro at his best
was the best of the bunch. Maddux had some great seasons, but i don’t think anyone had a season like Pedro did in ’99.

50 pitches
they’ll be lucky if he gets them into the 6th…

You have two options
1. Get on base to set up the mega clutch situation for A-rod
2. Hit
3. HR
There Is no alternative.

Hello from the Grandstand!!!!!
You can hardly see from up here. Although that I can see that A-Rod is up with the bases loaded!!!! Barely
GO A-ROD!!!!
Already got someone up in the bullpen
Let’s break it wide open.

You got the biggest hit of your career in Game 4. Time for the biggest GS HR of your career.

Good inning, guys
2 runs is nothing to sneeze at.
2 runs every other inning would make very strong odds of victory.

This is what happened after the Yankees' last NL road trip
Matsui goes on a tear, and shows why they need him. I don’t care what anyone says, when it comes to the DH position, Matsui >>> Posada
Yikes! Didn’t realize how many comments we had.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
It’ll go up next half inning. I don’t like to move mid-inning.
"Have faith in the Yankees, my son. Think of the great DiMaggio."
Why Not Matsui For MVP?
It would be great for Japanese relations and its not like there is a clear cut winner anyway.
