I can’t liveblog this one, so I’m posting it as a game chatter. If Keith or anyone else is around and wants to handle it, all the better.
Go Yanks.
*** Keith in ***
Pregame chatter: FOX’s pregame is execrable. Kevin Kennedy and Eric Karros are in a competition to provide the world’s most meaningless analysis, with the added bonus of Karros always talking with his head leaned back like someone just put smelling salts under his nose. And then there’s Jeanie Zelasko, Living Blonde Joke.
Very nice tribute to Phil Rizzuto on the pregame. Kudos to FOX for that one. (Much better than This Week in Baseball, who superimposed Rizzuto over clips from the past week, and showing only his gaffes as an announcer.)
Interesting—Buck and McCarver have been broken up. McCarver’s at Yankee Stadium, but he’s paired with Kenny Albert and Ted Rosenthal. Nate Robertson does a crap job of reading the Tigers’ starting lineup, and Game On!
It’s Military Appreciation Day at the Stadium. Warrant Officer Derek Rodriguez throws out the first pitch. It’s a sinker in the dirt…
Top of the 1st
The Scum-Sucking Weasel pitches to Granderson. He gets under a 1-0 pitch and flies it to Melky for the first out.
Marcus Thames’s first major-league at-bat was for the Yankees against Randy Johnson, and he hit a home run. He was being interviewed by ESPN after the game, and in mid-interview, he got hit with a shaving-cream pie in the face. To his credit, he finished the interview in white-face. Today, however, he strikes out swinging.
My least favorite Yankee faces off against my second-least-favorite ex-Yankee (after RJ). Shef takes a bad swing on a bad pitch and muscles it to deep left over Matsui’s head for a double. The Guy With The Hair then strikes out swinging.
Bottom of the 1st
Sgt. Hector J. Benitez announces the Yankee lineup, and does marginally better than Robertson.
Melky pops out in foul territory to Inge. El Capitan flies out to center.
Interesting stat: Posada has caught more of Clemens’s games than any other catcher; #2 on the list is Yankees first-base coach Tony Peña. Today is the 150th time Jorgie Porgie has caught the Lying Sack of Shit.
My satellite signal just went out—which has never happened on a clear day before—so I’m using GameDay for the moment. Abreu flies out to center.
Top of the 2nd
Guillen grounds out to Canò. Pudge strikes out swinging.
Satellite’s still out, so I’m reduced to Sterling and Waldman. And yes, the radio announcers really are that bad, when I’m preferring Kenny and Timmy to Johnny and Suzie….
Raburn strikes out swinging to end it.
Bottom of the 2nd
I just tried DISH Network’s customer service. I got a busy signal three times. I’m guessing we’re not the only ones having problems.
A-Rod flies out to Magglio. Gojira grounds out to first. Jorgie Porgie works the count to 3-1, then hits it to left-center for a home run to make it 1-0. Sterling thought for sure it was a flyout.
Jorgie Porgie, puddin’ pie
Hit the ball, make the Tigers cry
And just in time, the satellite signal is reacquired, and I am spared Walding.
Maybin makes a rookie mistake: he calls off Inge on a pop-up and then misjudges it and it drops. That’s not the amazing part; the amazing part is that Giambi hustles it into a double. I never expected to write a sentence with “Giambi” as the subject and “to hustle” as the verb….
Canò socks it, but right at Raburn for the third out.
They finally reran the home run, which I missed thanks to DISH’s shenanigans—that was a sweet shot….
Top of the 3rd
Inge hits a nubber that nobody can get, and it’s a cheap infield hit.
Now Maybin’s up. In his first game he had to face Andy Pettitte in Yankee Stadium in front of 54,000 loud fans. In his second, he has to face Roger Clemens on national television at Yankee Stadium in front of 54,000 fans. Yesterday, he went 0-4. Today, he made a defensive gaffe—and socks a base hit. It’s a hit-and-run, so Canò was covering second, and Maybin hit it where they ain’t, to coin a phrase, and now it’s first and third, nobody out.
Granderson swings at Mr. Splitty for strike three, which is Clemens’s 1000th K as a New York Yankee. Big whoop.
Thames works the count to 3-2. Between the fouls balls and the pickoff attempts, this at-bat has taken roughly five weeks.
NICE! Thames strikes out, but Maybin was running. Posada throws the ball, not to second, but back to Clemens, who nails Inge trying to score in a rundown for a very bizarre strike-em-out-throw-em-out. Nice on Jorgie and Clemens, there.
Bottom of the 3rd
Phillips hits it on a weird hop to Guillen, who recovers nicely and throws him out. Melky shows bunt, then sobers up after strike one. On a 1-2 pitch, he socks a base hit up the middle. El Capitan flies out to Granderson.
Abreu works the count to 3-1, then draws the walk to bring up Mr. 39. He channels Jeter by swinging at the first pitch and grounding to Inge, who forces Melky at third. He’s so unclutch. (Or is that joke passé now?)
Top of the 4th
Shef leads off with a single to left. Magglio starts out 0-2, then fouls off a couple and sees one in the dirt in between eight hundred throws to first (because, y’know, 38-year-olds are usually big stolen-base threats). Finally, He Of The Hair strikes out. Guilllen lines a hit to center to put runners at first and second.
Pudge gets a base hit to left that’s short enough and hit hard enough that Shef can’t score. Bases loaded with only one out for Raburn. That last word is the only good news in that sentence. Raburn flies out to center, Shef scores easily to tie it at 1. Guillen advances to third. Inge then flies out to Abreu to end it.
In the comments, eric pointed out that Shef has 18 steals this year. He’s also only been caught four times. So he actually is a baserunning threat. Nemmind.
Bottom of the 4th
Gojira hits a crappy grounder back to the box. Jorgie Porgie follows it up with a scorching liner that is unfortunately right at Raburn, so it’s out #2. Giambi strikes out swinging at a curve ball that was seventeen feet outside. Yeesh.
Actually, it’s okay. I don’t want the Yanks to take the lead again until Asswipe isn’t pitching anymore….
Top of the 5th
Maybin hits his first career home run off one of the greatest pitchers who ever lived to make it 2-1. He hit that to dead center field. That was a really nice piece of hitting. Last night we saw a rookie with jitters. Today, he seems have settled down a bit, and it’s starting to become clearer why the Tigers are so high on him. McCarver is also completely beside himself.
Granderson and Thames both ground out. Shef gets his third hit of the game with a single to left. He then steals second, but Curly grounds back to Clemens to end it.
Bottom of the 5th
According to McCarver, Leyland won the ALDS last year because he psyched out the Yankees by complimenting their lineup after Game 1. Right.
Canò flies out to Maybin. Phillips becomes possessed by the Bunt Fairy, and naturally makes an out. Melky then grounds out to second. The Yanks made it easy—Durbin only threw five pitches….
Top of the 6th
Guillen flies out to Gojira. Pudge strikes out. That’s eight for Clemens.
FOX just showed the starting lineup of the first game Clemens ever pitched against the Tigers, in 1984 (the year the Tigers won the Series). Nobody in that lineup is still in the MLB. Nobody in that lineup has been in the MLB recently.
Raburn gets a hit when A-Rod gets tied up by an in-between hop. Clemens throws one pitch to Inge at home, sandwiched by six (!) pickoff attempts. WTF?
Inge hits it down the line, which A-Rod makes a nice spear on. Inge beats the throw to first, but without A-Rod catching it, that’s a run-scoring double.
Cameron “Babe Ruth” Maybin up. Clemens hits him on the arm with an 0-2 pitch. I would’ve preferred the strikeout. Bases loaded for Granderson, who pops it up to the infield. Jeter catches it.
Edwar spent most of the inning warming up in the bullpen—I suspect he starts the seventh.
Bottom of the 6th
Thames out, Sean Casey in at first.
El Capitan gets what feels like his first hit since June, a solid shot to left.
FOX just showed Scooter calling Roger Maris’s 61st home run and Jeter’s first major-league homer. (And also the time he introduced himself as Bill White, causing White, standing next to him, to crack up.)
Farnsworth is warming up in the pen. Say what? Why was Edwar warming up if he wasn’t coming in to pitch the seventh? Does Torre want to lose?????
WOO HOO! Abreu hits a ball that I honestly thought was a cheap pop-up, and it hits the foul pole in left field for a two-run homer to make it 3-2. He fouled off four pitches before finally getting that homer. Veddy nice.
Mr. 39 works the count to 3-1. He socks a base-hit up the middle. You can see the fork in Chad Durbin.
Durbin out, Tim Byrdak in. Byrdak buys his glasses from the same guy as Farnsworth.
Farnsworth is still warming up. The Tigers send up Casey, Sheffield, and Ordoñez up in the seventh. There is no way, none, that that can be construed as a good thing. The Yanks need to score at least eight runs before I’ll feel comfortable with bringing Kyle in….
Byrdak has thrown the ball home twice and to first four times. I’d love to see Alex steal second. Instead, Gojira pops out to short left. Feh.
Jorgie Porgie up. The crowd is chanting his name. He hits it to the hole between short and third. Guillen makes a nice grab, but he can’t even get the force. Infield hit for Jorgie, and runners at first and second for Giambi. He hits a cheap popup to Guilen. At least he isn’t clogging any bases.
Canò shoots a base hit to left, scoring A-Rod to make it 4-2. I honestly thought that A-Rod was dead meat at home, but the cutoff throw was offline.
Byrdak out, Jason Grilli in. He was probably the subject of a lot of BBQ jokes when he was a kid….
I hear “Sweet Home Alabama,” so Phillips must be up. Wouldn’t this be a good time to pinch hit Damon? Ah, well. Phillips makes me look stupid by lifting a flare to short left field to score Posada, making it 5-2. Canò to second.
Grilli goes to 0-2 on Melky. He also went to 0-2 on Phillips, of course. However, Melky swings at a bad pitch to K for the final out.
I really wish they’d waited one more inning for this. Now Fuck-nose is the pitcher of record.
Of course, if Farnsworth comes in, the lead could be gone in fairly short order….
Top of the 7th
Clemens out. Farnsworthicide has commenced.
I predict a leadoff double or a leadoff walk. I’m grateful to be wrong: Casey flies out on a 3-2 pitch to Matsui.
Shef will probably get on base again. The crowd is chanting, “Gary sucks!” I love the Stadium crowds.
And I’m wrong again! Farnsworth strikes out Shef on four pitches. He swung at all three strikes, and the crowd cheered louder than they have all day.
Hair Guy up. He’ll probably hit a homer. Wrong again! Magglio strikes out swinging!
A 1-2-3 inning for Kyle Farnsworth! Holy shit. In other news, hell froze over.
Seriously, that may have been the most important inning Kyle Farnsworth has pitched all year.
AUGH! KATE SMITH! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Bottom of the 7th
For the second inning in a row, El Capitan leads off. He grounds out.
Abreu flies out to Granderson. A-Rod grounds out to third.
L-Viz is warming up in the bullpen, and I’m wondering just what Edwar has to do to get into a game.
Top of the 8th
Sho’ ‘nuff, Farnsworth out, L-Viz in. Does he pitch two? Does Edwar pitch the ninth? Does Mo come in? Does anybody really know what time it is?
Guillen golfs the 2-2 pitch to right field for the first out, after fouling off several pitches. Pudge muscles a hit to center field. Raburn pops out to second.
McCarver just said that the Phillies had to overcome more than any other NL team, and I’m wondering if he’s forgotten how badly the Cubs sucked at the beginning of the year….
And now McCarver said he doesn’t think the fans in Philadelphia are questioning Charlie Manuel’s strategy. I don’t see how anyone who has paid attention to baseball, y’know, ever, could say that about Phillie fans. These are the yahoos who ran Scott Rolen and Bobby Abreu out of town. These guys would question Babe Ruth.
L-Viz freezes Inge for strike three.
Bottom of the 8th
Grilli out, Bobby Seay in. Both these guys make the Were Made Fun Of As Kids All-Star Team.
Mo is warming up in the bullpen. Because heaven forfend Edwar ever pitch. *rolleyes*
Gojira grounds out to first. Jorgie Porgie socks a base hit to left. Giambi hits it hard to short center, but Granderson makes a nice running catch. Canò hits a sharp grounder that Inge catches and forces Posada at second.
Top of the 9th
Say your prayers little one
Don’t forget, my son
To include everyoneTuck you in, warm within
Keep you free from sin
Till the sandman he comesSleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tightExit light
Enter night
Take my hand
Off to never never land
L-Viz out, Mo in. I’d prefer to have seen Edwar get some work in, but I’d also like Mo to right the ship. So fine, let’s have us some Mo.
Maybin strikes out swinging on four pitches.
Granderson hits the 1-0 pitch to center, which Melky catches easily.
Mo goes to 3-0 on Casey. He gets a strike, then walks him.
Now it’s Mo vs. Shef. Gotta love it.
Ramon Santiago in to pinch run for Casey.
Called strike one to Shef. Santiago steals second uncontested. After a ball, Shef grounds out to A-Rod, who throws him out for the win.
That’s two in a row, fifteen games over .500, and at least holding serve and possibly gaining ground in the division and wild card (with the possibility of taking first place in the WC—go White Sox!). It’s also a win for Clemens, but hey, you can’t have everything. Farnsworth pitches well, too, and I’m 20-6 in liveblogging. 
Goodnight, everybody!
*** Keith out ***
Comments
I am indeed around, and will happily take it.
I checked back—the Yankees are 19-6 when I liveblog. So I like our chances. 
Clay Bellinger sighting:
Clay Bellinger is currently the batting coach for the Chandler, Arizona team in the Little League World Series.
Clay Bellinger is currently the batting coach for the Chandler, Arizona team in the Little League World Series.
The curse may be lifted this year!
Chandler leads Maryland 7-1 in the second inning.
Clay is good at this job.
I like this lineup, even with Phillips.
Derek Rodriguez threw out the ceremonial first ball.
Is that his real name?
So wait, little league teams have batting coaches? I guess that’s less ridiculous than televised little league games, but not by much.
Did Tim McCarver just call Clemens an alien?
So wait, little league teams have batting coaches?
“Batting coach” is a lot better title to give the TV guys than “Cody’s dad”.
Oh, okay. As long as his son’s on the team. For a minute I thought he had a paid position or something.
I remember when Thames hit a home run off Randy Johnson on the first pitch. That was a lot of fun.
Sweet K on Magglio there.
How can McCAarver who was a quality ballplayer, be such a bafoon when it comes to doing color….He just overstates the obvious…..He’s become such schmuck….
Did we start 0-30 or something? McCarver seems to believe that.
....He’s become such schmuck…
He was once a genuinely good color man.
It took him a lot of sacrifice and hard work to get where he is now.
McCarver is another one of those guys that cares more about how he sounds (and looks) than about getting things right. He gets so many things wrong, like players’ names, etc. Its annoying.
According to McCarver the yankees weren’t a major league ball club pre-all star break…I wasn’t aware of that fact.
Roger looks fantastic.
Cody Bellinger just hit a home run in the LLWS game.
What did Orel Hersheiser do to deserve to be working little league games? Shouldn’t he be a major league pitching coach or manager or something?
“What did Orel Hersheiser do to deserve to be working little league games? Shouldn’t he be a major league pitching coach or manager or something?”
He should at least have McCarver’s job by now.
Shouldn’t he be a major league pitching coach or manager or something?
He was the pitching coach for Texas a couple years back. I actually spoke with him at Yankee Stadium.
He was the pitching coach for Texas a couple years back.
Yes, and he was very successful. Their pitchers actually did well, something you don’t see very often in Texas.
Next thing I know he’s working for ESPN.
Jorge is Sofa King awesome.
Today’s game we have a Hall of Fame catcher and a catcher who plays like a Hall of Famer.
Yes, and he was very successful.
He was instructing Chris Young when he was at the stadium. That worked out well.
Base clogger!!!!!
McCarver never mentions that LF at Yankee Stadium is probably -the- most notorious sun-field in MLB, especially in late afternoon games in the late season…which..it is…right now…and is, you know, relevent to a ball that they lost in the sun, especially when the replay show Guillen and Maybin shielding their eyes…
This base clogging business will never grow old, methinks.
SG needs to edit the doubles column on the Giambi post again.
Someday Maybin getting a hit against Roger Clemens will be part of a trivia question.
Like which HoF pitcher gave up hits to Maybin and Rod Carew.
Roger “The Cat” Clemens
That double play was the essence of awesome. Roger on both ends of it.
That’s Roger’s sixth swinging K in 2.2 innings today. Since that game when he didn’t get a single swing-and-miss, Roger’s been getting a ton of K’s swinging. Before that he wasn’t striking out very many at all, and the few he was seemed to be looking more often than not. Variance or changes in approach?
Could someone explicate what Gameday just told me happened?
Okay, got it. Thanks.
according to bbref, Rod Carew went 0 for 3 against Clemens in his career.
Joe Morgan, of all people, did get a hit against Roger. 1 for 4.
Could someone explicate what Gameday just told me happened?
One out. Runners on first and third for the Tigers(Maybin,Inge).
The batter strikes out on a 3-2 pitch. Maybin running on the pitch.
Posado, faking the throw to second, throws directly to Clemens. Inge is halfway between third and home. Clemens chases and tags Inge.
Maybin was born a week before Clemens began his fourth major league season.
Pudge may have spring in his legs, Mr. McCarver, but I have spring in my cock. How’s bout them apples, eh?
Could someone explicate what Gameday just told me happened?
You do realize these are “liveblog” threads, right?
Sheff has pwned Clemens his whole career. 1989, 1990 and now 2007. What’s the longest between plate appearances for any batter/pitcher? 17 years has got to be up there.
Keith, Sheff has 18 SBs this year, and 238 in his career.
“You do realize these are “liveblog” threads, right?”
Cripes. I’m sorry! I was impatient (my bad) with Keith but said thanks immediately afterwards, namesake.
Its time to do some damge to this guy-he’s not good
how many teams have a “heart of the lineup” as good as our 6,7,8 (posada, giambi, cano)? less than half, i assume.
By which I mean: No, I don’t. Because I’m an idiot.
By which I mean: No, I don’t. Because I’m an idiot.
I was just trying to redirect some love to Keith’s liveblogging. Its all good.
wow. Clemens must have mixed up scouting reports on Maybin with someone else.
I’ll never be excited about anything as much as McCarver was about that HR.
Yankee pitchers love giving up rare HR. Scutaro, Kendall, Figgins, Maybin….
Are we going to see that home run replayed over and over again, as Maybin passes milestone after milestone, 15 or 20 years from now?
Sheff >> Roger. But thankfully Roger >>> Mags.
wow. Clemens must have mixed up scouting reports on Maybin with someone else.
I don’t think Maybin has been up long enough for there to be useful scouting reports.
Yankees look like total shit today which they have somewhat the last week or so. Even yesterday who knows what would have happened if not for the bad bounce.
All the elements for a piss-poor offensive showing are here. Roger on the mound. A no-name pitcher with a penchant for walks and gopher balls going for the opposition. Important game. Sigh.
We’ve got three hits one of which was pure luck so far against this brand X 30 year old journeyman with a lifetime era+ of 82. This won’t cut it fellows. I bet Serling has said numerous times today “it just goes to show you no one can figure this game.”
I’m gamedaying this, is anyone warming? I’d bet Inge is Clemens’ last batter no matter what.
eric: Edwar just started warming.
I bet Serling has said numerous times today “it just goes to show you no one can figure this game.”
A team that mysteriously can’t hit against bad pitchers. Only in….the Twilight Zone.
was that a bad hop or bad play by Arod-I turned my head and have the sound off
I guess I lost that bet…
c’mon get us out of this inning
was that a bad hop or bad play by Arod-I turned my head and have the sound off
Which one? Raburn’s hit was a bad hop. Inge’s hit was a fantastic play by A-Rod, Inge just beat it.
Roger hit a batter who had just homered off him. Is he going to get another suspension?
I hope not. He was 0-2 on the count with 2 outs and two on. There’s no way that was an intentional HBP.
leaving the 45-year-old man out there to face the top of the lineup as he nears 110 pitches with the bases loaded and he seems to be imploding in front of our eyes. Ok. That’s one way to manage.
All the elements for a piss-poor offensive showing are here. Roger on the mound. A no-name pitcher with a penchant for walks and gopher balls going for the opposition. Important game. Sigh.
I think this game has all the elements of a late offensive come from behind surge.
and it works.
he seems to be imploding in front of our eyes.
I disagree. He actually pitched fine that inning. He hit Maybin with an 0-2 pitch that was almost a foul ball. The only hard-hit ball was Inge’s.
I think this game has all the elements of a late offensive come from behind surge.
Well after Edwar there will be one of the crappy relievers to give up a few runs, so when the Yankees rally they still lose by one or so and Clemens gets tagged with the loss despite limiting the Tigers to 2 runs over 6 innings. That’s my guess. And since all my guesses have been wrong so far, looking good for us. Or did I just jinx it? Arrrgh head asplode.
I knew Tuesday would be a loss and I suspected Wednesday and Thursday to be the same but this game I counted as a win and if The Yankees can’t win games like this sayonara.
I disagree. He actually pitched fine that inning. He hit Maybin with an 0-2 pitch that was almost a foul ball. The only hard-hit ball was Inge’s.
I trust you. like I said, I’m Gamedaying so hit, hit, two-strike HBP didn’t look good on paper. But if the rabid Clemens hater thought he looked good watching it on TV I’ll definitely trust your judgment.
But if the rabid Clemens hater thought he looked good watching it on TV I’ll definitely trust your judgment.
Damn skippy. *laughs*
Farnsie now warming-will we see Edawar for athe next week or two
As Bobby Abreu goes, so go the Yankees.
Take that guy from Primer whose posts I did not appreciate earlier today!!!
Wow what a cheapie-I love it and I’ll take and Serling will say “it looks like a bleacher shot in the scorecard.”
Hell yeah the reverse jinx prediction whatever worked! Ok now I predict the Yankees score no more runs the rest of this inning.
C’mon, work again dammit.
EL COMADULCE!!! :banana:
Edwar warmed earlier and the Farnsie warmed after so what does Torre do in the 7th and 8th now that Joba pitched yesterday
EL COMADULCE!!!
Been meaning to ask: wuzzat mean?
“COMA” means eat and “Dulce” means candy
its what John Sterling says
Looks like Farnsie, he’s pitched ok lately with a lead of at least four. Need more runs.
when Bobby Abreu hits a homerun
Off-topic, even moreso considering the fact the Yanks are in the middle of a rally, but…
Just looking at the box score for Clemens’ first game against the Tigers on 8/6/1984 (which he won 10-2, btw) I see that Wade Boggs hit 2HR (the first of only four multi-HR games for him). In fact, that game might have been the best offensive performance of his career, 5 4 4 1 0 2 3.
Neither here nor there, but interesting.
Arod nets a run with his legs
A-phil!
Keith I don’t think you would have PH Damon then with a lead
haha just noticed now that’s the name of a poster.
Keith I don’t think you would have PH Damon then with a lead
Kyle Farnsworth was warming up in the bullpen. “Lead” is a pliable term under those circumstances.
Uh Oh The Grim Reaper-Gagne’s other self
Not sporting to be ahead in the count
Think they’ll invite Shef back for old timers day 2017? Maybe they could do like a WWE themed old timers with Shef, Mondesi, Lofton among others in the villain roles
Wait. If Farnsworth > Sheffield and Sheffield >> Clemens, it follows logically that Farnsworth >>> Clemens. Hmmm…
What just happened there? Kyle K’ed Sheff? Really? I’m confused and scared. The worlld may be ending.
1-2-3.
Wait. If Farnsworth > Sheffield and Sheffield >> Clemens, it follows logically that Farnsworth >>> Clemens. Hmmm…
Its not transitive.
Wow! Man bites dog! That trip to the woodshed did Farnsie a world of good. Who pitches the 8th?
Did you know Kyle Farnsworthless is my favorite pitcher?
