MAX SCHERZER IS PITCHING A NO-HITTER

You seem...

upset.

[derekson]

Am I the only one who thinks the on-screen strike zone is way off a lot of the time?

It looks pretty damn accurate to me. A bit small, if anything.

[jon abbey]

A miracle that Posada didn't get doubled off there.

Come on, Derek!

[rembrat]

Yea its way the fuck off. I wouldnt go by it.

[jon abbey]

82 pitches through 5 for Scherzer, 62 for Garcia.

[jon abbey]

Oh, that hurts. This is not going well.

[Meff Nelton]

This ump apparently wants to make sure neither pitcher sucks today.


Playoff Baseball!

Rally time!

[Meff Nelton]

Is Freddy Garcia a fucking plant from the Venezuelan Government?

[jon abbey]

Ordonez is out of the game at least.

Apparently no one told Girardi that this is the playoffs. For some reason Freddy Garcia is still on the mound...

[jon abbey]

Let's see if Jeter gets as much flak for his huge error today as he got ballwashed for his relay to home yesterday.

[derekson]

Should Canó have made a play on the VMart grounder?

[derekson]

Jeter should get some credit for yelling at Logan and causing a balk there too

[jon abbey]

Should Canó have made a play on the VMart grounder?

Dunno, I didn't think so, it was hit very hard.

[ThePrideofShiner]

I'm utterly shocked that Boone Logan got through that unscathed.

How about some runs?

[Saby]

1-1 after two, if it come to that is really not an issue. Still have this series.

I think Detroit has to be pretty happy to leave NY with 1 win, especially considering that they only got 1 inning from Verlander.

[derekson]

What a pathetic way to allow the first hit. Delmon Young is a fucking joke.

[rembrat]

Dont worry, Delmon, Crawford doesnt make that catch either.

[Saby]

Could say the same for CC.

[derekson]

Could say the same for CC.

Well, technically they got 2 innings from CC. And the Yankees probably would've hoped to take both home games.

[jon abbey]

Outside pitch after outside pitch for strikes, ridiculous.

[Meff Nelton]

This strike zone is so absurd.

[ThePrideofShiner]

It is absurd, but it's been called that way for 6 innings now. How about making an adjustment?

This is the zone to lefties:



The Yankees have six lefties in their lineup. They need a pool strainer to hit Scherzer with the zone he's getting.

[jon abbey]

Scherzer is at 97 pitches.

[rembrat]

Use your pen, oldman.

[jon abbey]

It's Benoit.

[melonbag]

Scherzer pitched a great game. He made the big pitches when needed.

I guess he was taken out due to his pitch count. He only gave up a ground ball up the middle in the 7th.

[EvilEmpire]

Why no PR for Posada?

[rembrat]

How pissed is Gardner here after coming up big last night he gets PH for in a similar situation.

Dat gas.

[derekson]

Benoit > Binder

[DukeSox]

not even close on that swing

[FenwayFrenzy]

Is Benoit traditionally their eighth inning guy?

[derekson]

Is Benoit traditionally their eighth inning guy?

Yes. He's only at 8 pitches right now though. He can probably go 4-6 outs.

[rembrat]

Is Benoit traditionally their eighth inning guy?

Yes. Leyland aware of the situation.

[melonbag]

It's pouring. Game will surely be delayed after the Yanks' bat.

[jon abbey]

Serious 2006 flashbacks.

[Meff Nelton]

I hope Eric Cooper gets kidney stones.

[melonbag]

Gotta give credit to Leyland.

2 on and nobody out....he makes a pitching change to his set up guy in the 7th. And Benoit gets the next 3 batters out.

[greek_gawd_of_walks]

Leyland's hook wasn't as slow as La Russa's. Worked out better too.

[abty]

After seeing Valverde's perfect regular season, I couldn't help but wonder if he'd bomb in the post-season. Curious to see how he'll handle his outings in October, esp. this series. Not really a fan of high octane emotional relievers (Krod/Benitez have scared me for life as a met fan).

[derekson]

Yankees have to be feeling pretty good about spending $1.6 billion on a stadium without a retractable roof.

[glennhoffmania]

Jeter bitches about every outside corner strike call that his lean over/stick your ass out move doesn't work on.

I'd feel good about NY getting to him with a 1 or even 2 run lead, but not a 4 run lead. They're showing pretty much zero signs of offensive life today.

[glennhoffmania]

I want to hear someone talk about how great the drainage is at Yankee Stadium.

It was a joke. Have you not noticed that Kay doesn't miss an opportunity to talk about this every time it even drizzles?
