"A New York Treasure" --Village Voice

Nice Hops

Phil Hughes got his tits lit today and the Yanks were getting trashed 10-1. Happens. But they came back before they lost 10-7. Nice effort, got to like this team’s fight but this game will be remembered for Raja Davis’ sensational catch. Robbed a homer Casey McGeheeand will never forget it either.

Very disappointed in Hughes. He faced the equivalent of a Triple-A lineup, a lineup that he should have been dominated, and instead he had one of his worst starts of the season.

With JA Happ on the mound, and the Jays' offense struggling, the Yankees should have put this game in their back pocket. What an enigma Hughes is.

He "should have dominated," not he "should have been dominated."

[3] Mrs.Hughes may take care of the "shoe be dominated" after that apallling performance. :)

What a catch by Davis!

[4] Ouch, joke AND spelling fail. "shoe be dominated"? Sigh..

I'd wager Mr. Hughes misses his spot by a good 18 inches at least 20 times per start.
