![]() This is an easy win. Kenny Rogers blows. Arod is batting 4th and my man Bernie Williams is in the lineup.

![]() Terrible call by the umps at 3rd on the play where Pudge was clearly out. Not sure how he can justify making that call. The throw beat the runner easily and the tag was apparently made. You have to call the guy out in that kind of situation.
Bad throw by Giambi when they had the guy in the run down. Granted, Johnson made a high throw to Giambi, but Giambi still should throw that guy out at 2nd. Cost them another run. |

![]() Not to me it did Kev. It was close enough where you need to call him out. The throw beat the runner by a lot and tags arent always seen by the umps. Thats common knowledge in baseball. When throws beat the runners and the tags are close enough, the runner is out.

Kinda of like when the shortstop gets his foot "close enough" to the bag when turning two. |

![]() Exactly. Baseball moves in split seconds and umps have to go by things like how quick the throw gets there. Cant always see the tag.
But in this case, especially after seeing the replay, I really believe that Pudge was tagged. Now maybe the umpire couldnt see the tag but he had to see the throw beat Pudge, and to me it was not clear enough that the tag was missed. No way. Bad call. Hope it doesnt make the difference in this game. |

No instant replay in baseball...calls, good or bad, are just part of the game.. Football has proved that instant replay doesn't work.. Chalk (or paint) just flew down the left field line on a Tiger hitter....FOUL BALL... No big deal... Ez |

![]() At least Yankee fans now will share a little of our misery when they hear us Mets fans lamenting about Kenny F***ing Rogers.

![]() Rogers was throwing some very nasty stuff.
Timely hitting by one team and not the other. Detroit hangs with the pitching. |

![]() Rogers' performance tonite was amazing! I guess we can add 'crafty' to his resume! Kept the Bombers off balance all night! And I don't even like the guy!

![]() the tag hit his chest and then the shoulder...wrong call made! What is it with 1st basemen that can't throw to another base?? That chalk-line foul ball was a fair ball, and if the umpire was in correct position(in foul territory) he wouldn't have been scurrying to avoid the ball!

![]() It's pretty intense when ya tell your own catcher to......... "come on...give me the f'n ball"...........Yanks get taken down by a freak on a roll.You must admit, his head was on the verge of exploding. You best hope that Bonderman doesn't pitch to ya like a witch.Always tough to eliminate the roaches known as the Yanks,but it must be done.Don't wait until game 5.Hit the roaches with hammer(not paper.)

![]() On a warm summer's evenin', on a train bound for nowhere,
I met up with the gambler; we were both too tired to sleep. So we took turns a starin' out the window at the darkness, 'Til boredom overtook us, and he began to speak. He said: "Son, I've made a life out of readin' people's faces, And knowin' what their cards were by the way they held their eyes. So if you don't mind my sayin', I can see you're out of aces. For a taste of your whiskey, I'll give you some advice." So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow. Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light. And the night got deathly quiet, his face lost all expression. He said: "If you're gonna play the game, boy, you gotta learn to play it right." "You got to know when to hold 'em; know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away; know when to run. You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table. There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done." "Now ev'ry gambler knows the secret to survivin'. Is knowin' what to throw away, knowing what to keep. 'Cos ev'ry hand's a winner and ev'ry hand's a loser, And the best you can hope for is to die in your sleep." So when he'd finished speakin', he turned back toward the window: Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep. And somewhere in the darkness the gambler, he broke even. But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep. You got to know when to hold 'em; know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away; know when to run. You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table. There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done. You got to know when to hold 'em; know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away; know when to run. You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table. There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done. You got to know when to hold 'em; know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away; know when to run. You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table. There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done. |

![]() I am pleasantly shocked that Detroit is giving the Yankees a series. You'd expect a team with the best lineup in the history of the sport to maybe lose 1game all post season, not to be up against the wall in the ALDS. All the so called experts thought this would be a slam dunk for the Bronx Bombers.
How about the uote from AROD: "That wasnt the Kenny Rogers I remember. He was phenominal". Talk about disrespect. |

If you're going to the game, please do not go for that cheap, on-street parking. If you do, you're likely to came back to your vehicle ablaze. signed, Ford Flambe |

![]() Gander,did you see the throw to home plate that Milton B made? Was perfect.I don't think Kendall tagged Tory,but (as you say)when the throw beats the runner,you will often get a call. You know God has a sense of humor.When he gives a headcase skills (like Milton's) it makes people start to overlook a lot of sht.
