A FOX rant and a Gamethread

[milky_way]

I woke up early on a weekend expecting to be able to finally watch a full 9-inning baseball game (I've been missing the first couple innings of each game thanks to school), only to find out that my MLB.tv is blocked out because FOX is carrying the game in some sector of the country that I don't live in :angry:

Stupid FOX! :eviltongu

Anyway....

Vazquez vs. Bedard

O's
Hairston
Newhan
Mora
Tejada
Lopez
Surhoff
Garcia
Bigbie
Roberts

Yanks
Cairo
Jeter
Sheffield
A-Rod
Bernie
Matsui
Sierra
Clark
Flash

LET'S GO YANKEES! :banana:

[milky_way]

A 1-out bobble by Javy of a Newhan dribbler puts the first O on :(

[milky_way]

Double play! :banana: Out of the first.

LET'S GO BATS!

[milky_way]

Two 3-1 counts to lead off the game, and two straight outs :angry:

[skippy]

:)

I get to watch it on FOX, the announcers stink :(

no batter action in the first, sheff swung at ball 4, oh well :P

[milky_way]

And now Sheff pops up on a 3-0 count! :angry:

[milky_way]

Hey skippy! :wave1:

How's Javy looking? Sterling and Steiner are talking about Giambi right now :wait:

[milky_way]

And OUR Javy wins :tongue:

Lopez down swingin

[milky_way]

No-hitter gone as Surhoff dunks a bloop single into right :(

First and second, one out

[milky_way]

Karim grounds into a fielder's choice, almost a double play.

Bigbie lines out to Sheff, with the announcers adding extra drama to it :hmm:

[milky_way]

Finally something GOOD after a 3-0 count :hmm:

A-Rod breaks up Bedard's no-no :tongue:

[milky_way]

Double play :angry:

[milky_way]

Hariston hits a solo shot :angry:

The TWENTY-FRICKEN-THIRD homer Javy's given up this year :angry: :angry: :angry:

[milky_way]

A-Rod with a nice backhand play at third to end the inning.

RUNS YANKS! :banana:

[skippy]

That's ok, Javy always seems to be the first to give up a run, then he's solid...

don't know what's his problem with the long ball this year, :lol:

[skippy]

Hey skippy! :wave1:

How's Javy looking? Sterling and Steiner are talking about Giambi right now :wait:


Hi milky_way :wave1:

Javy looks great, if he keeps pitching like this he could go a long distance, which our bullpen DESPERATELY needs :cool:

Nope. So far, NOTHING, not even some crap reliever or a backup backup first baseman :wait: :notme:

[PissedPrincess]

I imagine since we both need crap relievers and 1st base, people are trying to hold up Cash and Theo. :angry:
