Welcome home, Yankees

The Yankees have just come off the first base line, and it seemed to me that Joba Chamberlain got the biggest cheers of any player — bigger than Derek Jeter, bigger than Alex Rodriguez. Phil Hughes also was very loudly received, as were Joe Girardi and Shelley Duncan. Like we’ve said, it’s a new team.

Mike Mussina got the moose calls. One player was booed — no names mentioned, but here’s a hint, he wears No. 48 and is a right-handed relief pitcher. Just minutes away right now from the first pitch of the Yankees season. Escorted to the mound by Yogi Berra, Reggie Jackson has just thrown out the ceremonial first pitch, right over the plate to Jose Molina.

ah man that’s harsh on Farnsworth – he’s had a decent spring and it wasn’t his bat that went quiet last October

groundball to Jeter. definately baseballs back!!!!!!

**** WHATS WITH THE CHEAP HITS!!!!!!

C*R*A*P is a censored word?

And Giambino has some some D already!

Sorry… He’s SHOWN some D. You know it it weren’t for the cheap hits, we’d be in the 5th inning!

And YANKESS BASEBALL looks FREAKIN INCREDIBLE IN 37″ LCD HD!!! WOW!!

Come on! Am I blogging to myself??

GEEZ! CAN I TYPE? Am I excited or what????

baseball doesn’t look as good I can imagine on my laptop

bruney has a NEW career.

spokesman for jenny craig??

MELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLKYYYYYYYYYYYYY MELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Thank god 4 cabrera. Wang missed his spot quite a bit on the last one

ok boys lets get some hits!!

Rios is going to regret that AB if the Blue Jays don’t take the game.

not a lot of quality abs in that inning.

better than some of the previous innings with 5/6 pitchcounts. I’d put money on a 1-run complete game by Halladay the way this is going though.

Dont like the number of batters Wang has fallen to 2-0 against. BUT, finally a good quick inning.

Bruney has become a DJ. He is preparing life after the Yankees as we speak.

Why does this blog keep refreshing? It has 200+ items to load up each automatic refresh.

MELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
MELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

bpark, I was wondering if it was just me…… But I’ve got the same thing… .260 items. 258 items. 257. Wonderful on dialup.

same as on the items. Gotta love Cabrera – great AB, got the pitchcount up as well

Yep… Just as I complained about quality abs….

Who the HECK IS THAT PLAYING FIRST FOR US?????

Giambi looks half a decade younger than I remember him last year

COME ON BOYS! GET WANG THE WIN! 7IP 6H, 2ER. Thats a line I’ll take every stinking start!

candyrunts,
EXACTLY what I was thinking. About 15 or 20 pounds lighter maybe? But definitely younger.

haa woah Torre-nostalgia…seemed weird the manager getting out to the mound so quickly

HEY HO THERE GOES TOKYO GO GO GODZILLA!

Come on Melky, drive it down Hallidays throat!!

**** on the SO.

anyway Wang for the W!!

Come on Joba!

98 mph HEATER!

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok guys and dolls. Battery is nearly dead. Have to shut down. Tomorrow!

Damon!! time to put this game to bed

Great job, Yanks! Nice start to 2008….

It’s good to be back, although I must admit that football season was quite nice with the G-Men pulling off the shocker against Belichek and Brady.

woot

I don’t know how I missed this post.

Great win for the Yankees tonight !!!!!!!……

The Melk-man delivered !!!!!!! Wang pitched a good game !!!!…..and, Giambi looks in great shape and played some good “D”…Congratulations to the whole Yankee team, and especially, Joe Girardi, on his first win as Yankee Manager !!!!! Go Yankees !!!
