Game 2: Boston vs. New York - 3:55 Fox

[Jitpal]

I don't think there was any malice intended but this is nuts. How are the Yankees dropping like flies? Roger and Doug now injured. I know someone presented a list of Red Sox players that got injured one year, but that list was not like this. I don't think we have played 1 game with our entire roster. -Jitpal

LOL @ The Yankees defense.

How do you expect proctor to get 8 outs in one inning? LOL.

Blew 2 double plays, and then no one covers 3rd. Abreu afraid the wall is going to eat him. Jeter asleep at SS too. Wake up Yankees.

[cmaff051]

Unreal. This loss is on Jeter. Proctor got 5 outs that inning.

[KnickTerp12]

+1 out - Abreu's Play
+2 more outs - Jeter's First Error
+2 more outs - Jeter's 2nd Error
+1 more out - Arod Not covering third

+So many walks.

+Blow the lead, and sit back at 13.5 GB

-Lose our 1st baseman
-Lose the Rocket
---------------------

Worst day of the season BY FAR.

You can't blame it on Jeter. You blame it on everyone. First, Procter can't throw strikes. Abreu runs away from the ball in the outfield. That double play where Doug got hurt was horrible as well. Jeter couldn't make a play. Missed defensive assignments so Melky can't force Varitek out. Basically everyone except Matsui(who didn't do anything) and Melky did a horrible job. -Jitpal

Umm, you Blame 2 Errors by Derek Jeter on Derek Jeter. Thats why they are ... Errors... right? 2 routine double plays, especially the 2nd one. We should've been out of the inning with the game tied, even if Abreu misplayed the ball and Proctor didnt throw enough strikes for you.

I'm not apologizing for Jeter or anything of the sort. He messed up. Thing is, the other guys aren't absolved of their miscues because Jeter also had them. -Jitpal

I know, I saw Abraham Lincoln posting in your thread and complaining. The big mistake, you started that thread too early. I hate when people screw up a winning trend. -Jitpal

On an awful day, this is the funniest thing I've heard all day.. that's the saddest thing.

[NYKnSTILL!]

we had 4 big time GOATS tonight

1. Mike Mussina (TRADE HIM ALREADY !!!!)

2. Bobby Abreu (I mean give me a f'n break)

3. Derek Jeter (yes damn right I'm hitting the captain, he gets the go ahead then throws one ball away gets our 1B hurt instead of holding on to the ball and then boots an EASY !!!! and I mean an EASY !!!! double play)

4. Hideki Matsui (I could kill you if it were legal )

[Pharmcat]

please waive CHokesina


and JEters defense blows

[JohnnyK]

The play on which Doug got hurt started with a very poor throw by Cano though. Sure, Jeter probably should have simply held onto the ball there, but you can't really blame Jeter for the missed DP opportunity, nor can you really blame him for Doug's injury (and neither can you blame Lowell). The second error is another story...

[Rondo_Fan]

If Lowell doesn't get drilled in the **** back tommorow, then I am going to go **** crazy.

You guys are unbelievable.

Lowell already got drilled, in the FIRST game of the series, in case you forgot. We lost Nomar for most of a year because of a hit by pitch like that in the hand. He was never the same afterwards.

And Lowell got hit by a pitch in that game BEFORE Proctor tried to bean Youkilis.

What, you guys can do stuff like that just because you're the Yankees, but nobody else gets to protect themselves?

Looks to me like Lowell just got back the next day the best way he could.

If you can't take it, then maybe you shouldn't be dishing it out.

[ReggieFULLeffect]

You can't blame Proctor for anything IMO. Naturally the dud wasn't going to throw any borderline inside pitches on anyone because he knew that the umps were going to be extra tentative with him on the mound. Even with that fact he didn't do that bad. Abreu NEEDS to make that play. Dumb-Rod needs to cover 3rd base (did you ever think you would see a play unfold in which Josh Phelps baseball IQ showed up and A-Rods didn't?) and dammit Jeter I'm sick of the shoddy D.

Bright spots include Jorge as always, Melky and Abreu waking up a bit at the plate, and thats about it for today. Thee have been some miserable days this season guys but, this could be the absolute worst. And I stand by my decision to get rid of Mussina immediately. 87-88 MPH doesn't cut it the way he is pitching. His course has run but it is certainly time to move on. If ANY move is to be made it is to dump him on some team in the NL for whatever we can get.

That would be me and I'm at the point where I relinquish the title of "most injury bit team of the century" to the 2007 Yankees team. Not that you will be missing much losing Dougie but with Giambi out as well, AND it's Jne 3rd, you guys are in trouble. mahalo

Not missing much? Have you seen Josh Phelps playing 1B? He needs a perfect throw every single time to snare it and then even with that he makes it interesting. -Jitpal
