Roy Halladay will face the Yanks today (George Steinbrenner’s birthday) and looks to put a damper on the holiday festivities in the Bronx. It will be a tall task to beat him but stranger things have happened. It’s sunny and beauty-ful in New York.
Let’s Go Yan-Kees!

Happy Birthday George and America!
He’s 79 today and we’re 233!
: )
funny, we don’t look a day over 186.
Win one for George.
Yesterday, got to watch a Yankee win, saw the Mudhens win and fireworks. Also the start of a 3 day weekend & payday.
Here’s hoping the good news keeps coming. Off to watch a 19th century style ball game, Happy Fourth of July everyone!
Have fun RBJ! Throw a spitball for me!
: )
C’mon CMW!
Wow @ current Yankees “sharing” Lou Gherig’s speech today!
Wow!
Doing the Patriotic hat thing again, I see.
I don’t mind the special logo, but does the hat have to be red?
I get to listen to WCBS, but at least I get the Yankees game in some form!
: )
My FOX Saturday Game today is Dodgers at Padres.
I’m going to be sick…
Woohoo DP!
classic Wang DP!
Wang’s ERA at a sterling 9.80!
I guess that’s why it has to be red. So they can make the canucks wear it, too, and claim it’s for Canada Day.
nice work, johnny. i’d like him to steal, if his legs are “under him.” let’s be aggressive early, try and wear halladay down.
Woohoo A-Rod!
[12] woo hoo!
and nice hit and run…
yeah, A-Rod!!!!
Yanks take the early lead! : )
woo hoo A-Rod! hehe. i’m behind y’all
i’d still rather see Posada in the 5-hole, instead of Robbie…
[19] he’d be better. I really want to see him stick there and turn his RISP numbers around. I know it wouldn’t be the popular move but it could be crucial down the stretch if he can build some RISP confidence.
is Wang being helped by the ump on those 2 strike calls? they look a bit outside on gamecast…
throw strikes, please.
[20] i hear ya, man. i thought of that, too. but it’s really tempting to put Jorgie behind A-Rod. Posada Rocks!!!
dammit, lost him…
Holy crap. Bad luck.
ugh. and the start looked so promising. : /
Bah! 2-1
and there it is. we’re losing. awesome. : /
Gets out of it with a DP.
Man, that was really just bad luck.
at least he got another DP.
let’s see if we can actually score more off Doc…
[28] was it on the ground rule double? obviously, i can’t see the game. i have braves-nats, cubs-brew crew here…
He isn’t pitching bad. Some real tough breaks there. And the walk was obviously bad.
I hope they got their “Hats for Bats” working today, even if they are red!
: )
[30] that was good hitting. not bad pitching though. Just one of those shallow right field low flies that landed fair.
Vagitek goes deep, Sox up 2-nil. he’s got 12 so far, guess he’s not finished after all…
[30] The ground rule double looked like it was going to be foul, but ended up bouncing on the line. Literally – the chalk flew up when it hit.
The 2-RBI single was a grounder that bounced over Wang, just out of his reach.
And Godzilla ties it up.
Kaboom. Take that, Doc!
Po’s hand is still swollen, yet he insisted he could play today…

Woohoo Matsui!
: )
[34] Vagitek. Cervix. What is it with catchers and female reproductive parts?
Wait, wasn’t this a Seinfeld bit?
MATSUI-SAN!!!
tie game : )
MATSUI!!!!
seamus & randy = thanks for the 411 on the double, etc.!
[39] No… MLB players have been “pussies” for years now…
: )
[39] Mulva? Deloris? : D
[39] the g/f whose name he forgot? rhymed with something…
wow, gardner looked totally outmatched.
Wang should be more comfy now – his ERA is back into the 10’s… : ~
[43] Twat Nixon.
From Petey:
Matsui is 5 of his last 10 with four RBI and four extras. He has three careers dingers against Halladay.
[48] heh heh
Exactly!
