Start of the last home series of Jeter's career. Last time facing the knuckler in all likelihood. Let's make this memorable!
Pillar dives and robs Jeter of a hit

he clearly didn't get the memo.

BTW - Yankees just scored the fewest runs IN THEIR HISTORY on a road trip over 5 games. Wow.
Drew mashes knuckleball

Considering they played seven games in the road trip, that makes it even worse.
Greene looks really solid again

6 solid innings. Really happy he got a shot this season. Amazing what can happen when you give the young guys a chance.
JETER WITH A BLAST TO LF!

that is one lucky MFer to catch that ball.

2-0
his first HR at the stadium

all season. That's just crazy.
Greene has reminded us...  
Dunedin81 : 9/18/2014 9:09 pm : link
that when the Yankees can overcome their unwillingness to play rookies the results can actually be pretty good. Mitchell and Refsnyder are two of the most exciting guys for next year on that score, but let's face it. Pirela and probably Roller should be playing now. Teix should be nursing his sore wrist and Brendan Ryan sucks.
I think I've had enough

of Kelley.

Pathetic.
Nobody saw that one coming...  
Dunedin81 : 9/18/2014 9:26 pm : link
Kelley hasn't been good but I'd still rather they trot him out there instead of adding to Betances's workload.
it isn't about  
RasputinPrime : 9/18/2014 9:34 pm : link
wins at the moment. We need to see what we have.

*clap clap clap*

At least we hurt the BlueJays chances. Lind is almost as bad at first as McCann.
I agree with RP

I'm really curious to see some of these AAA guys get out there & hustle, rather than the same tired old $25MM fat-cats who are hitting .217
And if they fail so what?  
Dunedin81 : 9/18/2014 10:37 pm : link
Winning these games is pretty irrelevant. There may be some psychic benefit to finishing over .500, but either way we'll be on the outside looking in come October. Draft pick is irrelevant because we'll surrender it anyway.
