King Felix wins tonight and we keep our leads over the teams of the AL East.

No harm no foul. Lesson learned hopefully.

Classic over manage moves by Joe tonight. Sometimes it doesn't pay to be cute...

You start Robertson in the ninth and grab the win...

Sometimes, Joe Girardi's overmanaging puts my heart in my mouth.

Nothing more frustrating than throwing away a game that's pretty much in hand. At least Tampa and Baltimore lost.

[AnA-bombforA-rod]

Frustrating loss. Not only the blown lead but the offense doing nothing against Axelrod.

That was kind of expected. They had never seen Axelrod. Probably the same thing will happen tonight against another pitcher the Yankees have never faced before.

We're still perpetuating this myth, huh?

Lets see what happens after tonight's game.

[RenoHightower]

Lets see what happens after tonight's game.

No, because we already know the answer, because there are mountains of data. A one-game sample of tonight is meaningless in the face of objective data that the Yankees actually perform very well against pitchers whom they've never faced before. It's simply not true, and that's that.

Reno I think you're trying to fight for Dr John's title.

Is this a gay joke?

What? No not at all.

How is pointing out that "Yanks always struggle against pitchers they have never faced" is a total myth being stubborn?

Sure sometimes picthers they've never seen before do shut them down but more often than not the Yanks treat them like batting practice pitchers and those are seemingly forgotten before the new reliever has completed his his warm up tosses.

[Hitman23]

Not what I meant.

I wasn't serious.

I don't think I'm difficult. I just disagree with things that I think aren't correct. Just agree with everything I say, and you'll find me very easy to get along with.

It's not my fault that I'm always right.

Dr John. Meet your competition. Reno I don't know your name so I'm just going to introduce you as Reno.

[Jax Teller]

Apparently there was a Phelps sighting in the clubhouse today.

[Mr Coffee]

I had no idea Dr. John was gay.

Polymorphously perverse.

Today was the sixth time since 1918 that two Yankees allowed at least 6 earned runs in at most 2 1/3 innings in the same game. It was the thirteenth time since 1918 that three Yankees faced at least 15 batters each. The only time since 1918 that four Yankees faced at least 15 batters each went to extra innings.
Today was the first time since August 15, 1998 home against Texas that the Yankees took a 4-0 lead and went on to lose by 7 or more runs.

Erik Boland ‏@eboland11 Adam Warren's bags were already packed. Girardi said a move would be made for tomorrows game. Understand DJ Mitchell will be coming up

[bomber999]

Sooooo....how's that groin feelin', CC?
