New York Yankees 8 - Colorado Rockies 3
Mood Music - Karma Police by Radiohead
The New York Yankees defeated the Colorado Rockies today, smacking around Rockies starter Aaron Cook, and thriving on the excellent pitching of CC Sabathia.
The heroes:
CC Sabathia: +.266 WPA
Alex Rodriguez: +.129 WPA
Curtis Granderson: +.093 WPA
Mark Teixeira: +.035 WPA
Not much to complain about today, as the Yankees had the game well in hand throughout. CC mixed in all of his pitches well, in what was possibly his most dominant outing of the year. Buddy Carlyle pitched the 9th inning and promptly served up a two-run tater to Ty Wigginton, but thankfully, was able to pitch well enough to keep Mariano Rivera in the bullpen.
Fresh off of a dominant outing against the Reds, Ivan Nova will take the ball for the Yankees tomorrow.
Some PSA writers always need to be covered for.
Play of the Game: Curtis Granderson's 1st inning single to give the Yankees a 1-0 lead.

Tsk, tsk Y2.
CC is on pace to deliver another 18+ win season, talk about being dominant.
What is this "Yankees" team everyone is talking about?
Was not in the game thread but what did you guys think of the lead off bunt?

Did anyone notice he had Mo up in the 9th inning?
I guess when your pen is populated by mop-up men you almost need to use Robertson or Mo in every game regardless of the score!
Yes!
Twice in a week too. Now if only Duggan would get to Kid A.
The idiot formerly known as pkyankeefan! Now in Technicolour!

Back in first by half a game over the Red Sox! We’ve got to figure out their number this year—so far this season we’re 43-23 against everybody else and 1-8 against Boston.
Farewell and thanks to #46.

B'cuz our rotation hasn't matched up v them and they are simply
better than we are right now.
That means half game up at this point is just all good news. Shades of 2009 — where we even the playing field v the Sux in 2nd half and pull away…?
Not yet. Not with our “rotation”. But I have a hunch things will be changing.
Anyway. June 25. First place.
