Game 42: How’s that for offense?
Well now that was something interesting, huh? We go from barely being able to score runs to putting up a 13-spot the next night. Schizophrenic baseball is what we do best, and we do it well. CC Sabathia got the call to the mound tonight, and pitched just as well as Bartolo Colon did last … Continue reading
Game 40: It’s about damn time.
Well. It’s nice to see the Yankees taking care of business for once. Finally snapping a six-game skid, we got not only great pitching, but offense that didn’t die on the vine. Ivan Nova pitched 5.1 innings, gave up 1 ER on 4 H, walked two and struck out four. Our bullpen collectively gave up … Continue reading
Game 34: That was a gut punch.
Ugh. Another great start from our rotation, another wasted effort from the offense. Granted, it’s hard to hold on to 2-1 leads, even against teams like the vaunted Royals. AJ pitches seven innings of 1 H, 1 ER ball, and… Continue reading
Game 27: Just couldn’t fight ‘em off.
CC didn’t pitch nearly as bad as the final score would suggest. If your starter only gives up four runs over the course of seven innings, you should be able to win that game. I’m sorry. Our offense let him… Continue reading
Game 26: Back from a lengthy delay.
The Yankees sure do love those dramatic, late-inning victories, don’t they? It’s almost like they enjoy giving their fans heart attacks by making them wait until the last very last minute. A win is a win though, and we’ll… Continue reading
Game 17: That’s why they call us the Bronx Bombers.
Holy home runs, Batman! I guess the Yankees decided to demonstrate their superior offensive skills last night, while also demonstrating why CC Sabathia is basically our only reliable starter. *sigh* Not that I’m complaining mind you, just that geez. … Continue reading
Game 11: You know what time it is.
The Drama Llama! For those of you who are new to Yankees Chick this season, the Drama Llama only makes his appearance when the Yankees win a game in spectacular, come-from-behind fashion, much like last night. Those of you… Continue reading
Game 10: That’s more like it.
It’s always nice when the Yanks can rebound from a crappy game and get to business. Also, my beloved Red Wings started their playoff series against the Phoenix Coyotes last night and won, so I was two for two… Continue reading
Game 4: Close shave.
Well, this game was a lot closer than I thought it would be, especially after we jumped out to an early 4-0 lead. We usually play very well against the Twins, both in the regular season and the postseason, so… Continue reading
Game 3: Wasn’t expecting that.
I was hoping we’d come out guns blazing and open the season with a sweep, so I’d get the opportunity to post the first Crazy Stein of the year, but alas…..twas not to be. Phil didn’t have the best… Continue reading
