Yankees 8, Red Sox 4: Hammer Those Nails in the Coffin

This is the Yankees I was hoping to see, that I somewhat missed in the 96-00 years due to being young, dumb, and not into sports. I guess this is as good as any of a way of introducing myself (former lurker) to the masses. Go Yankees!

A lot of runs were given up in this series, which taxed some ERAs most def. But all in all the big picture for the regular season at lest, is taking form. Robbie had my blood boiling tonight with those 2 E4s.

But the bats for the Bombers were alive, which was good to see. Man o man did Jeet set the tone with his first 2 ABs! Lets keep it going…….I believe Joba sets it off vs Texas Tuesday. Is that right?

teams have blown leads this big with even fewer games.

very nice win. CC way out-pitched Beckett. if not for some bad luck (2 errors, 3 bloopers), CC probably allows just one run. whereas Beckett got legitimately rocked: 5 homeruns.

He must’ve had a bad break…I had a broken thumb and healed in 3 weeks

dont wanna get too comfortable with the lead but if you think about it the last couple of years when teams have come back to win a pennant usually had a big pick up… especially a pitcher.

Red Sox didnt do that i mean yes they picked up Martinez but he cant carry a team from a 7 game deficit. and dont forget we dont have that bad of a team

What is the magic number?

angst from Boston in the morning, it’s the smell of Victory! To quote the great Mr. Berra again, " It ain’t over till it’s over." That being said, however, it is sweet being up 7 games in the loss column with 38 to play. The Yankees won another series. Just keep winning 2 of every 3 and everything else will take care of itself.

sounds like we got sox fans on a YANKEES site, not cool at all. Wakefield is getting old, I didn’t think he played ne more til you all mentioned him, that’s how out of date he is, dice k? We tore him up the last few times he’s pitched to us so keep dreamin with that one. Sox might attempt a comeback but it won’t work, besides we’re the YANKEES, NOT the mets, everyone knows yanks are the better team in new york, it’s ridicilous to think otherwise. There is NOOOOO way that wakefield is better than ne yanks pitcher, he’s not better then the guys in his own bullpen, that’s just straight up ignorance to think that, being a chiefs fan tho it’s understandable, we all know how good the chiefs are. NOT! Come on guys, let’s be real, it’s not over yet but offense is booming and pitching is great. All we gotta do is continue to support our team, that’s it. Later peeps.

Looks kind of creepy..but what else would you expect from Youk?
