10 runs 15 hits but 2 errors by Toddler of the Baby Bombers. Tank was solid - able to maneuver until he found his curve, take control when he was in trouble with runners on or 3 balls - 6 hits, 1 run 1 w and 10 Ks - been lights out since the end of June. Looking for carryover with the Indians coming in for 3 - Severino, Garcia & Sabathia are scheduled to start. Final 10-1 awaiting the resultby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
Not rally making fun of the M's - it could happen to any team including & yes it has to the Yankees. But I can't stop laughing , it's that sad. 5 errors in the bottom of the first. You have to see it to believe it - 6 runs scored, 1 earned. Some including A A RON who had 1 in the top of the inning might be a result of the tough left field sun. The M's SS, Seguro had 3 errors and leads the lby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
I'm watching ENCORE went to the fair with the grandkids & Stacey this afternoon - but know the Yankees won this one & the O's beat the Sux again. We managed to cut the lead to 3 games. Sonny does get the win - but have to agree with Michael Kay he is a slow deliberate guy. The abs look crisper than the lethargy last night, maybe it was aftereffects of the nonsense in Detroit. Still tryingby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
they had chances - that's 2 games that could have been knocked off the Sux lead - no excuses - wasted opportunities - letting our fate slip right through our handsby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
No loss is good but this is the worst kind - a veteran screwed up making the final out in an xtra inning, 1 run game. After leaving so many runners on during the game, blowing chances to blow the game wide open, then fighting back to tie it at 1 - Sabathia had one heck of a game just one bad pitch that left the field - in the 11th Chap gives up another dinger - this is getting out of control withby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
Next Sunday's game vs the Sux has been switched from a 1 pm YES start to 7:30 SPN start. What makes it gets me is Monday is a 2 pm game at Baltimore. Infuriating that MLB would let a network have that kind of control over important games during a playoff race.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
Brett Gardner also fined along with Jose Ignlesias of the Tiggers. Suspensions are effective beginning tonight - Sanchez has appealed so that is on hold. Pregame interview Romine said he also is appealing. Joe G said he would like to stagger the catchers' suspensions.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
These are the suspensions handed down for yesterday's Battle in MoTown - subject to appeals: |Miguel Cabrera - 7 games Austin Romine - 2 games (for throwing punches, defending himself ) Gary Sanchez - 4 games ( cheap shots for defending his teammates) Alex Wilson - 4 games - admitted throwing at Toddler Brad Ausmus - 1 game - 7 others have been fined - Sanchez to appeal- getby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
As the Yankees return to the Bronx for a nice homestand and the pennant race on the line, we await judgment from MLB Hqtrs. led by Joe Torre. Remember Torre is the same guy who from '96 - '07 did not condone retribution for batters getting hit/brawls. Had the umpires taken charge of situation immediately - a lot of what took place could have been avoided - thankfully looks like no serious injurieby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
only problem is neither is a catcher - and both of ours could be suspended Gary longer than Austin. They stagger them - but our only other catcher on the 40-man roster is on the DL for S/WB. Going to take some fancy paper work to maneuver this or somebody will be at risk.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
I don't like the idea of the suspensions but under Torre = Yankee fans complained that our players didn't stick up for each other - our batters got hit and pitchers never retaliated. Today was because umpires did not know the history between Cabrera/Tiggers & the Yankees from last month. When Sanchez got hit, the warming should have been issued. That might have circumvented what followed: Cabby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
they never had control - should have taken charge when Gary was hit by Fulmer - especially the jerk behind the plate had no concept just flexing his 'power balls'- then he let Ausmus tell them to toss Dellin - it's BS -by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
Another batter hit, benches cleared for third time - so far Kahnle, Girardi, Romine, Betances, DRob, Robbie Thompson, have been ejected for the Yankees; Ausmus, Wilson, Cabrera for Detroit. No Yankees this time - but fines & suspensions will be coming. looks like Iglesias who tangled with Gardy has a bloody nose & Castellanos shaking his had. Hopefully no Yankee injuries = but we haveby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
More often than not it screws up a game. About the descent thing today was Gary Sanchez going deep. Garcia again is ineffective - could not even get out of the 5th inning nor hold a lead. No location. Warren was ineffective in read giving up the go ahead RUNS. Didi was making mental along with physical errors - Sanchez was hbp, Fulmer faked that his hand hurt after hitting him - no warnings wereby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
not if we play as lethargic as we are today - errors, weak pitching, - pitchers who can't protect a 1 run leadby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
While the Yankees were flying from Beantown to Motown, the Sux were giving away a game to the Indians. A 9th inning error led to the walk-off win. Cut the Yankee deficit to 4 1/2 games - but can we capitalize and right the ship against the Tiggers & Ms. It all begins tonight -by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
actually caught part of the game while having dinner - Ladies Night out- saw a rally by the other team then we got into some cool laughter and I looked up two other teams were playing - glad they won - if my thoughts wander the next few days please bear with me & accept my apologies, got something going on & focus is not easy, waiting is worseby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com

As I attempt to regain 'sanity' and make sense of what happened at Funkway, what's really important in life comes a knocking at the door. Losing 2/3 to the Sux, failing to gain on the ALE leaders, Chap's failure on the mound especially as the closer, Judge continues to struggle at the plate - disappointing to be certain BUT as Timmy await test results & doctor's appointments - his health is aby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
and today he showed he couldn't pitch to keep the game close giving up two more runsby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
Don't forget this is his first full season - he's played or Dh'd in almost every game - did not get the AS break thanks to his awesome MVP first half and the *%$#@)(* home run derby. Maybe he could use a couple days off to recharge his batteries. He's part of our future - and like Joe said in his pregame today - no matter where you bat in the lineup the opportunities for rbi or to advance runnerby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
CC rocked for the first 4 before a hiccup in the 5th - Tyler Austin smoked a 3-run jack off Sale & Toddler contributed a solo shot but an awesome snag on D; C also have a nice comebacker in the 1st. Solid D and 4 runs held up - Houdini escaped again in the 8th with a bases loaded K of Bogarts and Dellin closed in out. A WP on strike 3 made it dicey BUT was no match for Gary's arm as he naileby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
I think Chap needs to go on the DL then work out his technical problems in the minors on rehab - we can't afford to have him continue to give away games in the 7th, 8th or 9th innings. Let Dellin bridge the 7th/8th to DRob & close on the days DRob needs a break.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com

I almost turned it off when Kahnle blew - I didn't fault Chad Green for losing his command after sitting on the bench but Tommy was fresh out of the pen and didn't have his stuff - since I didn't watch post game no idea why Joe didn't bring Caleb before the game was lost. Or why he didn't replace Chapman with the first two walks - Chapman needs to go on the DL & work on whatever is botheringby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
