Must hit the O's

pitcher.
good question.  
Del Shofner : 8/26/2016 5:34 pm : link
.
maybe he threatened  
section125 : 8/26/2016 5:42 pm : link
to quit and go home if Joe didn't play him.
Hopefully it's not because  
bceagle05 : 8/26/2016 5:42 pm : link
Headley's been a whiny bitch about losing playing time.
Why is Headley the DH?  
Jim in Tampa : 8/26/2016 5:54 pm : link
Headley or McCann. Is there really that much of a difference at this point?
Mccanns grandmother passed away  
viggie : 8/26/2016 5:55 pm : link
Hes not with the team, hence Headley DH
I would have never said this a month ago  
stockton : 8/26/2016 5:57 pm : link
but I'd rather see Hicks in the lineup at this point than Headley. He's been hitting much better as of late.
I like Girardi.....but his lineup choices have been awful lately  
Tesla : 8/26/2016 6:03 pm : link
Hitting the corpse of Tex cleanup is a joke at this point. He's been every bit as awful as A-Rod was this year. He's also on the verge of giving up on Austin after a handful of games, which is just stupid.

And Hicks has been playing well lately, why not have him in over Ellsbury or Gardner?
I can't believe I'm saying this, but Hicks should be in the lineup.  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 8/26/2016 6:07 pm : link
Tex has been worse than A-Rod... Alex got cut 2-3 weeks ago and was benched 3-4 weeks before that and STILL has more RBIs than Mark Teixeira.
There was an analysis in Pinstripe Alley  
Jay in Toronto : 8/26/2016 6:09 pm : link
That argues that Headly's batting has improved.
Let's go - help us and the Jays
I'm OK with Teix playing 1B, but batting cleanup not so much -  
Del Shofner : 8/26/2016 6:11 pm : link
basically inviting them to pitch around Sanchez.
Not  
mitch300 : 8/26/2016 6:57 pm : link
sure why they are giving up on Austin so quickly. That is one problem with Girardi, no patience at all with some of the youth. Though I do admit Judge has a longer leash.

Its why I think he has to change soon or be bumped upstairs and a Teacher type manager will have to take over.
Teix goes deep, with Sanchez on (of course)  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/26/2016 7:25 pm : link
to give the Yanks a 2-1 lead.
McCann's grandmother died  
Greg from LI : 8/26/2016 7:28 pm : link
That's why Headley is DHing
the shift on Sanchez  
RasputinPrime : 8/26/2016 7:29 pm : link
has started. Didn't matter this time but it's arrived.

2-1 works for me. Teix lit that one up.
Big work, big work!!!  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/26/2016 7:38 pm : link
.
Cessa got away with a few that inning  
Greg from LI : 8/26/2016 7:39 pm : link
But a nice recovery after Castro botched the DP.
2 run single Gardy  
RasputinPrime : 8/26/2016 7:49 pm : link
Judge scored from second on the single

3-2
Fuck yeah!!!  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/26/2016 7:49 pm : link
Big hit by Gardy!

4-1 Yanks!
This is fun  
shelovesnycsports : 8/26/2016 7:50 pm : link
Again.
Gardy and Ellsbury remembered to bring their bats  
mfsd : 8/26/2016 7:51 pm : link
Tonight, how cool!
5-1 Yankees.  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/26/2016 7:51 pm : link
Holy shit.

RasputinPrime : 8/26/2016 7:53 pm : link
attack attack attack.
El Gary with a chance to bust this wide open  
Greg from LI : 8/26/2016 7:53 pm : link
.
Go ahead and shift against Sanchez  
mfsd : 8/26/2016 7:55 pm : link
He'll just slash a 2 run double into RF!!!
Okay can we sign him for a 15 year deal?  
Joey from GlenCove : 8/26/2016 7:55 pm : link
Haha

Thought this season was dead! Great job cash!!!
Sanchez!!!!!  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/26/2016 7:56 pm : link

That was a very Jeterian hit. :)
7-1 Good Guys.  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/26/2016 7:56 pm : link
Now, this is making a statement.
Holy Sanchez  
DennyInDenville : 8/26/2016 7:57 pm : link
Great AB!!! That was probly ball 4 but close enough to slap a double to RF!!!


Great team hitting!!!


Peace Gallardo!!! 1.1 Ip, bring on the bullpen Buck

One of the baseball-isms I find so amusing...EVERY time a hitter goes the other way for a hit, it's a "good piece of hitting". If they pull a line drive hit, it's great and all, but never described as a good piece of hitting.
BAL in their bullpen already.  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/26/2016 7:58 pm : link

Sanchez is closing in on 100 at bats  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/26/2016 7:59 pm : link
and he is hitting .405
But it WAS excellent hitting  
Greg from LI : 8/26/2016 8:02 pm : link
He was fooled a bit by the slider but still drove it to the opposite field.

Holy shit....thats what, six straight hits now?
8-1  
shelovesnycsports : 8/26/2016 8:02 pm : link
Awesome!

Oh it sure was.

And this inning is ridiculous...Castro joins the hit parade!!
Another run.  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/26/2016 8:04 pm : link
Gosh darn, I love this team. These are big late season games and they keep coming at you.
Soooo  
djm : 8/26/2016 8:04 pm : link
Are some of you still gonna bitch about girardi's lineup tonight ? Didn't think so.

Guy has done a damn good job this season managing this team. Somehow they have a legit shot and we're closing in on September.
leave it to Headley  
shelovesnycsports : 8/26/2016 8:04 pm : link
to make an out.
Leave it to Headley to ruin the inning  
Greg from LI : 8/26/2016 8:05 pm : link
Typical
Showalter has always been a very good manager  
mfsd : 8/26/2016 8:06 pm : link
But I just love when he's all pissed off in the dugout bc we're ripping his team
That was fun  
B in ALB : 8/26/2016 8:07 pm : link
Buck and his old man bitch face can suck a ding dong.
Good but overrated  
Greg from LI : 8/26/2016 8:08 pm : link
For all the praise the guy gets, he's won one playoff series in something like 15 seasons.
Buck looks like he is always pissed off.  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/26/2016 8:11 pm : link
.
Poor Mans Jeff Fisher of baseball  
B in ALB : 8/26/2016 8:12 pm : link
.
love the Buck  
RasputinPrime : 8/26/2016 8:12 pm : link
but he is hung like a mosquito and it shows on his face.
Whoa.
