GODZILLA

STAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNZILLLLLAAAA

DONG TIME!!!

Godzilla devours NY city.

And the poor souls in NY still give him a standing-O. WTF?

We’d cheer Vlad.

My thoughts exactly

We would cheer for him.

But giving an opposing player a standing-O because they hit a HR against us? No.

Standing O for Stan

surprised me a bit. Pretty classy.

The boos weren’t though.

The Rev is going to get his Ska on tonight

Nice play in the hole by Cano

Hughes is piping the ball, our boys should be able to hit him over the next few innings

Aww, isn’t life good when baseball is on????

Just checking in from my phone

Go Angels and hell ya Godzilla! !!!

Howie Booie

Haven't seen this famous change up yet....

I doubt it’s not nearly as effective as the homers think it is. But he has a nice curve.

Everyone is 42 today.

oh geez, forgot.

Partly for Jackie Robinson

but I like to think it’s for Douglas Adams as well.

Too bad it isn’t Towel Day yet.

Why the hell is Willits starting over Rivera?!?!!?!

Drunk Soth

this x42

can't have our lineup be TOO good.

Giving Rivera a rest

by putting Willits in…LOL

yeah cuz that 1st week was grueling

Going from not playing everyday for 5 months

Then playing everyday is not exactly easy. It’s just one day, not a big deal.

Either day off for rivera

Or just time to get Reggie in there

mikvitu - April 15, 2010 via mobile reply

Days off are for when we face the Royals #5 starter.

This is the Yankees, offense and defense will be required to win, both of which Juan is superior to Willits at.

Left-handed hitter in Yankee's stadium

Soth is trying to give Willits a chance 1 career HR.

Can't wait to see Willits in action!

this is princeton11loveshalos

How did crowd respond to Matsui Smash?

standing ovation

combo of ovation and boos

Seemed like some boos

Then a standing O

Standing ovation, though I heard a little booing

Boos were probably for

Hughes. They are pretty ‘meh’ about him…

no

There goes that…

Love those weak ass Yankee Stadium HR's

That’s a line drive single in Anaheim

hit or homer?

home run

crap

Only in newyork can a line drive off the wall anywhere else

Turn into a hr

mikvitu - April 15, 2010 via mobile reply

Cano really got around on that

Robinson Cano: Named for Jackie Robinson.

That's not fair today

No B.S?

It’s true. So would that make the Angels assholes for knocking him off the plate next at bat? I say no.

should have kept oliver for this precise moment

to be safe. there’s a strong racist undertone permeating through the game

Rodney could do it. He and Cano were born maybe 100 kilometers away from each other in D.R.

forgot about fernandizzle

Also, who could even tell he was throwing at him? Two feet off the plate is Rodney’s default location.

That's why his hat is on wonky...

…it’s the direction he’s throwing the ball

'splains it.

Is there any homer at yankee stadium that isn't to right field?

I do not think so

There's an air current that pushes the ball out to RF

So balls hit to LF tend to drift into CF

the wind is supposed to be even stronger once the old stadium is completely gone

Incorrect

Its theorized that the tearing down of OYS will fix the homerrifficness of NYS

No fear of the wall Bobby

if you are only goign to throw 91

might want to mix in more junk

Abrew

i’m listening to mota

Abreu is smooth out there

Dammit

Should have had him out

could have had that idiot

What happened?

Longass fly ball to left center

he started his home run trot, ball bounced off the wall. Almost had him at second after he realized he should’ve ran.

almost got ownt

Kazmir's pitch counts really are ridiculous

Cmon kaz

mikvitu - April 15, 2010 via mobile reply

we play willits

yanks counter with winn

We counter back with Win

I'd watch that fight.

Lose, lose scenario

Let's go Kaz, focus, stop over throwing....

His release point is slightly off and he’s throwing across his body. His stuff looks really good though.

OHHHH there's strike 3, called ball 3

Stupid Yankee Stadium K zone

he crowded the plate

fastball fastball fastball fastball

this team trying to be the most obvious when it comes to pitch selection?

he'll mix it up next time through the lineup

Wow

lucky out there

mixing pitches

leads to outs

Wood almost threw that ball over Kendry's head.

Time for Mathis, Wood and Willits to get something started

Whoops nevermind, no Mathis. We got Naps in today.

Mathis

so awesome he can hit from the bench

I'm calling it right now, Wood takes Hughes deep to RF

i smell a k

only a couple hundred feet off

you can call it now

but it aint happening til later

0-2 again...

He took a pitch

small victories

LOL Pipes a fastball and he pops up to the infield

Wow, that stayed in the yard

Costas is killing Wood on MLB Netwwork

Costas is killing Wood on MLB Netwwork

screw Costas

I'm calling it now

Willits Home Run

he'll stare at 2 pitches down the middle

then ground out to catcher

only if they pitch it down the centre

If Reggie is ever going to hit a major league HR

It’s going to be right here, in this bandbox for left-handed hitters.

No K!!!!!!!!!!!

4 pitch BB for Willits

Pitching around the slugger

Greetings from the Dirty.

Does he know how to swing?

no.

howiestheman - April 15, 2010 reply

I want to see the scouting report that says pitch him carefully

Oh boy Willits.

run, Reggie, run

Come on Soth, send him

that's like walking a pitcher

It is so easy to counter Wood's plate approach

He is taking every first pitch, so fastball down the middle.

Then two offspeed pitches and he is done. Everytime,

You should totally be a pitching coach.

You make it seem so damn easy. I can’t wait til Wood starts crushing that first pitch fastball.

I could get per-at bat data

break down his swing habits and show you why Im right and such.

But, Im lazy.

Just watch his next few at bats. Its

Step1: Take
Step2: Swing at bad pitch
Step3: Striekout

heard a funny story

sosh makes reggie run a lap if he hit it out in bp.

Umps all over the place according to Gameday

thoughts from people actually watching the game?

howiestheman - April 15, 2010 reply

Gameday is a poor measure

Nothing egregious

which is why i asked.

howiestheman - April 15, 2010 reply

I just got to the part of "Odd Man Out"

With Aybar and the hot dog…

Come on! In play, run(s)!!!

Let’s get something out of Willits starting!

trade you a willits for an aybar

Good morning everybody from Bangkok International Airport

bad bad scheduling

Ouch.

Referring to the scheduling, not Bangkok.

yeah...clearly wasn't thinking

Steal the base!!!

posada sucks

YES!!

THIS

Done

Atta boy Erick

good yob akbar

for some reason

I found it really funny how Jeter nudged Aybar’s leg while it was on the bag

u drunk?

only 15

so nah

sleep deprived though

Now Bobby, make them pay

The boo birds out in force

Alright cmon Torii

HaloBaseball4Life - April 15, 2010 reply

So whos on base?

Willits or Aybar? So confused…

Aybar on 2nd, Bobby on 1st

Aybar at 2nd, Abreu at 1st

Aybar

Aybar and Abreu

Aybar reached on a FC

princeton11loveshalos, Cath, and daughter of Moondoggy

are in the left field field seats behind the home run wall

That is awesome!

Lucky…

my bank account is not as lucky

:)

But for baby girl?

Worth it!

No such thing as a cheap seat there

nope

but Slasher is right

how far back?

not far

tell me if they make it on TV

Yup, I'll look for Angel Red!

definitiely HR possibility

Pleas Torii

Aybar

FC erased Willits

double steal would be sweet

ballsy

C;mon Torii

make this the game where you get your head out of your ass

Good cut Torii

Straighten it out, mang.

I love how Torii was taken completely out of context

And now doesn’t want to say anything

yeah

heard mota n terry talkin bout it. sad though cuz he’s so quotable

Pitch the damn ball!

How many pitcher-catcher conferences do you get in an inning?

eight in the WS last year

same at bat

no rule on that yet

as far as i know

8, if you watched last year’s WS.

Gorbachav5 - April 15, 2010 reply

is that right?

I hate Posada

Infinite

This crap again

Seik1177 - April 15, 2010 reply

Posada is ridiculous

I really hate this guy

Posada is an asshole

pee pee hands

longest inning ever!

Keep hanging in there Torii!

3-2

runners going…

damn

damn what?

GO 6-3

You posted that

like 2 whole minutes before it happened though. WTF?

blame Yahoo

My mental powers...

watching online with an illegal feed from Mexico or something.

Yahoo said he struck out swinging, end of inning

he did

except the ball hit the bat rolled to Arod who threw to first….strikeout

yeah, they fixed it.

somebody must have had quick fingers

Load 'em up

I forget which umpire it was...

Who was criticizing how long the redsox And Yankees take to play but he was right

mikvitu - April 15, 2010 via mobile reply

Joe West

Joe West?

Cowboy Joe West?

Someone did a study – Red Sox – Yankee games last year took, on average, 40 minutes longer than a regular game.

Gorbachav5 - April 15, 2010 reply

hell Nomar used 40 minutes by himself adjusting his batting glove

Dammit torii

Dammit Torii

he has just been sucking

I'm back.

Welcome back

Senor Floyd Rojo

Wow did you see how far Torii hit that screamer?

Not like it was 3-2 and an inexperienced pitcher piped a 90 MPH fastball

in a hitters park with RISP. Thanks Torii.

HaloBaseball4Life - April 15, 2010 reply

Que paso cor Torii?

And Torii goes out like a bitch again

Story of the year for him so far

he should not be batting third at this point

No really shouldnt

And I have a huge man-crush on Torii. Juan has been hitting better than him.

Oh, and now that I can see the game...

Hey, #42! You suck!!!

So, it's Mariano Rivera night?

sarcasm…

Tori should have tried to AJ his way on

It works for AJ...all the damn time it seems.

I hate Jeter as well

I hate this whole fucking team (my April allotment)

"A Yankee Stadium Home Run"

meaning bitchass lazy flies?

Yep

Crap

I hate this GD stadium

FUCKING LITTLE LEAGUE HR.

This stadium is a joke.

2-1 Yankees

Haha

And that’s….a Yankee stadium home run

Fly ball out... except in that shithole

No surprise

Right field home run

Can't blame Kaz for that.

Are we in Williamsport, PA?

THIS STADIUM F'ING SUCKS!

That was the cheapest HR I’ve seen in a while.

Hunter looks pissed

mikvitu - April 15, 2010 via mobile reply

what the crap?

i go get a snack and this is what happens?

New Yankee Stadium

happened

Jeter just had the greatest bunt hit ever

Well at least HH will be a family friendly website for the rest of the month.

Seems a lot of us used our F-bomb for April on that one.

lol...yep

I am waiting for Willits to mess up

Strike 3 on Tex called Ball 4

STUPID YANKEE STRIKE ZONE. BS!

Sounds like I’m glad I’m at school at not watching my BP rise.

Dontbatvlad4th - April 15, 2010 reply

No last names on the jersey's... is this new?

Ours or theirs?

Both

that's new for us

and against MLB rukes…I thought only the Yankees were above the rules

Probably part of the Jackie robinson thing

jinx

Maybe for Jackie Robinson day?

Jackie Robinson

hence my “You suck #42” (stolen from WiHalo’s comic last year)

I do not think that is against the rules. The Dodgers went that way

Because the Parking Lot Guy saved $5 per uniform that way

yeah..ever since 1927

Part of the homogenization of the team

Everyone gets the same number and no name.

We've been building up to this for years

ever since getting commie red.

I liked it better when Yankee fans booed A-Roid

Is Naps being allowed to call the game?

Or is it Sosh??

angelskid2210 - April 15, 2010 reply

Sweet haircut Napoli

Teixeira Who? - April 15, 2010 reply

Kaz doesn't have his release point down yet

He needs to throw fastballs before he can move on. Give credit to Naps for keeping the ball in front of him so well.

DP, Scott

let’s end this

Come on Kaz

Throw some GD strikes.

Double Play Scott

should have been

good slide by ARod

Illegal slide by A-Roid

ugh

meh

Bad throw, Howie

Recorded as an out, but I'd almost score it E4

Seems like he could have called ARod out on that slide. Had to turn his body around to touch the base.

F-ing AROD

You gotta stay near the base when you slide, you jackhole.

even when he gave up Cano still wasn't there

IT'S A TRAP!!!!!

Um.

Pretty sure A-Roid wasn’t close to the bag on that slide, making that an illegal slide. It didn’t look to me like he was an arms length away. What a bitch. Ball never lies though. Way to get out of it!

That's one of those that the ump never calls

Rarely are players able to touch the bag on slides.

right ono was'nt even close to the bag.

Good job kaz, that could have been alot worse inning.

Good play Aybar.

FO 6-4. End of inning.

Great play Aybar

Teixeira Who? - April 15, 2010 reply

Aybar panicked making sure he touched the bag

so he couldn’t get jobbed by the umps like in the ALCS

it's drizzling

Damn. We’re determined to get a pic of Reggie Bullits. If a couple of chicks yelling, “Reggie, I want to have your baby!” doesn’t get his attention, dunno what will.

moondoggyette is *not part of this; she is way too classy.

cath619 - April 15, 2010 via mobile reply

no, really

It ended up just being me and the friend. No luck – yet. Trying to take lots of pics.

Go Godzilla!

2 HR’s would totally make up for your lack of offense this series.

C’mon Terry…you partying with Torii

haha

did he actually say that? too funny.

yup

Walksui

Keep working that OBP

Godzilla on a stroll to 1B.

another walk...good job Stan

MAKE HIM PAY

Where the hell was that?

What are the odds that Matsui steals second?

200/1

Hey, Vladdy has 1 stolen base this season, anything can happen

Zero to injury

negative odds

and that totally doesn't count

Does a balk

count? Lol.

No steal necessary

mikvitu - April 15, 2010 via mobile reply

BALK

LOL

Balk

Balk!

Hmm. Didn't know that balk rule.

Yeah

I wasn’t aware of that either. Interesting.

Here we go Naps

Dammit, thought that was over Grandersons head

Wind blowing in

according to Terry

balk chalk

A balk wow

Another clutch hit from our future batting champion

How dare they call a balk on a NYY player! Selig will hear about this!!!

Damn.

I hate it how everybody plays HK-47 in that RCF gap. He needs to pull a few so the OF’s can’t keep cheating over.

SJRFXKERDXFJRTB

dang it

DAMMIT

and this is why

Matsui should not run.

Ever.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Dammit

Safe

zzSlow Godzilla

Bad call, Dino. Anyone except Matsui.

Last thing I want to see is Matsui putting his knees in peril.

No joke. But he got up.

Phew.

Yet its probably the first thing

that Napoli wants to see.

I was just referring to Matsui's blazing speed

Who would win a race -- Matsui or Thome?

their pet turtle

Good Lord

he was safe.

BruinHalo - April 15, 2010 reply

Matsui out at the plate...

Naps with the single, Granderson throws out Stan

WE WAS SAFE!!!!!

UGH YANKEE STADIUM UMPS I HATE YOU!

that was safe

got in as it bounced into the glove

Suck

That’s a game killer.

Even if he's out

Get an angle blue you can’t stand behind the catcher

mikvitu - April 15, 2010 via mobile reply

Flight boarding

Go Halos

Safe travels.

Seriously Dino?

Why the hell would you send Stan? Even though he got his foot in before the tag, YOU DON’T SEND STAN. He’s slow.

Thaat's Angels baseball they'll send anyone with two outs.

angelskid2210 - April 15, 2010 reply

Dino Knievel

He’s a daredevil.

you know thsat replay showed me Stan was safe...

it’s that stupid ball before player rule!

angelskid2210 - April 15, 2010 reply

What the hell Dino Evel

anyone screenshot it

you out-of-town-ers

I'm on it

BruinHalo - April 15, 2010 reply

He was safe

:( Bad call stemming from bad positioning….

haloduck - April 15, 2010 reply

that is a perfect example of why baseball needs instant replay

the umpire that made the call was BEHIND the play in that he was completely obscured from seeing they play by Posado’s body.

exactly

Just fucking guessing right there. He didn’t see a damn thing.

move the hell over so you can see the play you fat piece of s**t

wait

looks like he got in under the tag

Ump needs to get at an angle which he can see.....

This is BS, happens every time we have to play in Boston or New York. I’m so disgusted.

Giants are having wearable blanket night on Friday

Next friday

they have fans?

Copycats

Cavaliers did it before us

Copycats

I'm sure a NFL team

will beat the ‘record’ this season.

They're gonna do it at the World Cup

Costas called matsui safe

Wow

even the Yanks broadcasters calling out the HP Ump.

I don't know what's worse...

When homer broadcasters agree with such a bad call or the bad call itself :(

I just want to tell you both good luck. We're all counting on you.

XYZ123 - April 15, 2010 reply

I just threw up a little bit.............again

and Soth is at fault too

how the heck can he just sit there and not even go out and get in that fat fucks face about not moving at all

Futile battles

Lane needs to be told

he’s not doing his job properly. I play softball and umps making next to nothing run to get into correct position, this piece of crap can’t even be bothered to move from behind Posada to get any kind of angle on the play
