While the Mets remain the talk of the town the dullards from the Bronx look to win another game behind Hiroki Kuroda. Be a nice “w” what with Mr. Verlander vs. Phil Hughes tomorrow.
How ’bout some more runs, fellas?

Ah Buck n Timmy Mac...
First and third with two out in the top of the first. C'mon, Mark...
The lovely Bruce Davidson with a wide strike zone so far.
Damn. Porcello's change up helped him get around two hard ground outs, and base hits by Rodriguez and Robbie.
And a lead off walk. C'mon Hiroki. Sheeeeeit.
Berry steals a base on the first pitch. Lousy job by Hiroki. And the rain is coming down now.
Here comes the tarp.
Terrible. Now both starters could be lost.
And we're back.
Wow, Hiroki got Miguel Cabrera to pop up on the first pitch after the 39 minute rain delay. Still needs to get Prince...
Wow, Fielder hit a laser to first. Almost took Teix's mitt off. But he caught it.
Well done.
Holy Smoke!
Better to be lucky than good.
A minor miracle.
Two out double for Chavie.
Man, Russell doesn't know the meaning of cutting down on your swing, does he? What a hacker.
Hey, damn, Doc Watson. I just heard.
raul the cool.
nice job out there, old man!
that was a fabulous frame, hiroki!
[15] yeah man. very sad.
[17] Yeah. So now I'm in a bad mood. Probably the scotch set me up for this.
[18] my pop is a big doc fan.
hopefully the captain will cheer you up!
not very cheery...
Nice bunt.
jesus, a-rod.
so, yeah...i watched the end of the mutts game last nite. haven't rooted for them that hard since '86. i was really psyched for johan, the muts and their fans.
then...i saw the replay of beltran's hit and i was pissed. i'm a big beltran fan (can't wait for those next 2 stolen bases!!! 300-300!!!) and he got robbed.
baseball history shouldn't rest on such shitty calls that are sooo easy to get correct and overturn. johan got lucky, gallaraga did not. total bollocks...
C'mon Robbie. Little base hit now...
good job, grandy!
drive him home, robbie!
23) Two words. Jeffery Maier.
he was out in real time. but baseball history isn't on the line! : )
[26] never hoid o' him! ; )
Dag.
at least that cuts off timmay's story.
joe fuck: "squirts away"
timmay: "squirted between the legs"
good k right there.
Nice strike out there.
A little after burner speed from Robbie!
beautiful, robbie! beautiful.
Kuroda threw five strikes to Worth, but three of them were called balls.
Damn. Great catch.
motherfucker.
Shame too cause Teix went to the opposite field.
knuts
That was a great catch. But jumping ability had nothing do with it. Shite!
Tattoo You. Man, what a bomb.
knew that was coming.
can't catch that...
A nice, young, right handed power hitter that reaches everything.
Well done, Hiroki.
[44] Cabrera isn't all that young.
[46] He's 29 and has been raking for years. He's got at least 3 big years ahead of him. Maybe 5? Who knows?
crap.
Love a good pick off!
good.
Old Robbie does not take that walk.
Teix! Base running!
Good aggression by Cano and Mark! Now, GET THEM HOME!
nice baserunning!!!
Seems like forever since Swish has had a big hit.
Gallantry and talent meets elegance and class. Good one, Timmy. Douche.
He's got you with that pitch all night. Dag, Swish.
Yanks have scored 2 runs or less in 6 of Kuroda's 10 starts.
Yup.
fuck that guy.
Well that's good.
Oh, lucky day. Great first out.
NICE!!!
Mr. Splitty!
nice play by alex. i thought he had him...
Good. Plate some runs!
here's cokey.
good start!
Hey Russell got a hit! He got a hit!
Good start.
even better start!
I don't like it but DJ will bunt here.
A million dollars Jeter bunts.
If Jetes bunts successfully I bet they walk Grandy to face Alex.
oh, boo. i really like cokey. it's fun watching him pitch. i think leyland should keep him in. ; )
2-0. Hit and run.
So? Do they walk Grandy?
Oi! Too close.
WTF! Fire up the troops!
huh.
Davidson is a known asshole. See Manuel, Charlie.
C'mon, Alex. For the love of Mo!
That was a fucking horseshit strike. Bah!
damn.
For the life of me I'll never know why anyone would want to be an umpire. You couldn't pay me enough.
Good take!
bollocks.
i'm out...
I would have more happy with a single.
Fuck.
Well, Kuroda's pitched a fine game. Two runs in seven innings. Well done, bro.
Time for some late inning magic.
I think Swish will be the guy.
Let's go Boys!
Tex is one. Let's go.
More base runners.
A. little. fucking. 2. out. single. PLEASE!
Swish is going yard here.
We'll take the single. Fucking A.
{95] Good enough.
Oh, that 1-1 pitch. Oh...
A pretty good right handed hitter.
HPB to start. Nice.
The guy is Manny reincarnated.
We had plenty of chances. More RISP fail.
That's what I like to see!
Now Jeter will bunt him to 3rd methinks.
Timmy was ever so happy for that out. Fuck!
interesting. Good.
C'mon, Alex. Drive at least one fucking runner home.
Ouch. Nail biting time to Robbie.
These days, that's almost the best outcome I expect from ARod
Hit one in the gap!
OK everybody.... SWING AS HARD AS YOU CAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Somebody take Cano's bat........
#%$%#%#%#%@#$$#@%@%$@#%#W%$#@%@#%@#%@#%@#%@%@#%$@%#$@3
I'm so surprised.
Why wait for a good pitch.
Wild pitch would be nice.
Fucking Robbie. No way he gets 3 strikes thrown to him.
Walk him for the love of Mo!
Ha!
Fucking Robbie.Fucking Robbie.Fucking Robbie.
Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Sweet rally.
Heck of a game, huh? Just got back from a Mud Hens - Bison nail biter, walk off win for the Hens with a homer in the bottom of the ninth 3 - 2.
No hits. A terrible AB by Robbie. ARod can't manke contact.
I can't remember this team playing so badly.
And yet they are a game out of first on June 3rd. It's painful to watch but I like their chances in the long run. Their numbers with risp makes me sick to my stomach. And now Boone is going to lose it. Oh, well. grrrrrrrrrrr...
Well that was a waste of a Saturday night.
Of course. Fucking Robbie.
