May 13th @ The Blue Jays
Andy Pettitte gutted his way through this one – and did that well. Jonathan Albaladejo on the other hand…walking two in the 9th inning, with one out and a 8-2 lead…well…I don’t call him Alba-la-no-no for nuttin’…
How crazy was that 2nd inning for the Yankees? Melky doubles. Gardner hits a 100-meter homer. Pena triples. After Cervelli grounds out, Damon triples. And, then, after a Swisher ground out, Teixeira doubles.
That’s all followed by an A-Rod walk and a Cano single.
Two doubles, two triples and a homer in the second inning? When I saw all those extra base hits, so early in the game, I thought, for sure, somebody on the Yankees would hit for the cycle today. In any event, thank you Scott Richmond. Now, if Sabathia comes through on Thursday, the Yankees have a shot at winning this series…and that would be nice.
speaking of happy gillmore, how about that melky double? also the yanks have won 3 of their last 5! thats .600 ball! lol

Melky has been a very pleasant surprise this year. Peter Gammons was saying on Baseball Tonight that he leads all CFs in UZR as well. Will it last? No clue, but here’s hoping!
Bats come alive!
Finally,
I thought for sure after facing Doc, the bats would slump again but nice to see the bottom three of the order doing some of the damage too…. Hopefully we can carry this into today and take 2 of 3… Twinkies are up next and their Mauer is back in full form…
Speaking of Mauer.. Does anyone think he can hit .400??
Twinkies are up next and their Mauer is back in full form..
Sorry that should be they have Mauer back in full form.. (Wow.. need to stay off the JD early in the morning…)
Fingers crossed… Here comes Tex.
Anyone hear or see anything about Jorge?
