Why's Joe Torre clinging to that faint river of hair? Who is he impressing? Shave it off. It's just isolated and looks like a hotdog.

Gomes' first pitch of the season goes for a double. That was fun.

Jae Weong Seo is the Man.

That's funny why?

Pettitte gets the first two int he second, then walks Iwamura. Upton gets a single, and Paul singles in Iwamura in his first AB of the year (Navarro and Baldelli are resting sore hamstrings). Then Crawford also gets a walk, and they're loaded with 2 out. Good times.

Watch Zobrist pop up and end it.

Well, Upton got thrown out to end it. Oh well.

Jeter has another error. Gold Glove this year?

God damn stupid ass Upton. How much was he out by at the plate? I'm watching it on MLB Gameday.

B.J. Upton out at home, catcher Jorge Posada to pitcher Andy Pettite

Ben Zobrist reaches on an error, so ha.

Bloody close play off a passed ball. Can't knock him for trying. The Yankees actually executed a defensive play.

Zobrist advances on a passed ball. Heh. Yankees looking whatever the opposite of sharp is today.

(Blunt?)

Hehe, that was fun. Zobrist got caught at second and picked off, but Pettitte threw to second for no reason, so Zobrist gets the base uncontested.

Yankees having a freakin' mare here. Pettitte especially.

And Zobrist steals third! Did they really try two pickoff attempts at second? Fools.

DELMON YOUNG WITH THE RBI SINGLE!

The wind is blowing 10 MPH out to left according to MLB Gameday. Maybe we'll see a couple cheap homers.

Dukes with a GIDP. Pettitte really needed that as his pitch count was up to 62 after just getting 7 outs.

They DID pick Zobrist off. But he just kept going anyway, and Pettitte confused himself and threw to second, so Zobrist got the steal.

Pettitte's throwing an awesome combination of groundout pitches and wild pitches. He's.....a bit peaky tonight. Which makes the people laughing at Jae Seo look a bit undermined.

Dukes drives meekly into a double play. Oh well. It's still ncie to have 9 men in a lineup that doesn't necessarily chug ass.

Man the Yanks D is quite bad.....

This Zobrist kid isnt quite bad.

And Sham I was laughing at Seo because after the 1st inning, he cursed out loud in Japanese and threw his glove at the wall.

I love the way we're working counts, but Pettite has no control tonight so...

Oh good. But HCYanks was before laughing at the fact that Seo was a starter for us. Which is ironic cos he'd so start for you right now.

Rays rotation >Yankees rotation

Speaking of, Abreu just hit a pop up to left that got to the track. So the wind looks like it's clearly a factor.

He would.....Prob be our 4th best guy behind Wang, Pettite and Mussina. MAYBE Igawa, but I would take Seo over him.

But when Phillip Hughes comes to town.....forget Seo.

Maybe right now but in the next 2 years that would be a very obsurb statement.

Seo gets two big ol popups and the Yankees strand a leadoff single. Rays only up 1 but playing a lot better than New York today, so far.

You know, I was looking at the starters in Durham this year: Hammell, Howell, Talbot, Sonnastine, Niemann. That made me a happy bunny. Just thought I'd mention this.

Tell that to Mark Price, Jeff Niemann, Jacob Mcgee, Mitch Talbot, Wad Davis etc.

And SHIELDS IS GON BE GOOD!

OK, trivia time.
