Well, at least it isn't going to be a complete waste of an inning

 

[spockmaster]

whew. delmon tried his best to hit into a DP, im glad cano helped us out there.



now will 1 run be enough?

 

[kalinecountry]

Berry leads it off with a drive over granderson's head and a ground rule double bounced into the cf stands,

Cabrera getting pounded inside grounds it foul, fastball fouled back, slider low away, chases slider low again and just gets a piece of the pitch, kuroda taking alot of time martin goes out to talk again, slider low and away and Miggy protects the plate line drive single to right and Berry to third,

kuroda around 80 pitches 3 days rest bullpen stirring,

Fielder fastball high, swings and misses a splitter, chases another and grounds it foul shit, check swing no strike call shocking call from ump, ball bounces up to the plate full count, and he shits himself chasing another splitter, amazing, hasn't had bad at bat like that in a long time,

Young needs his playoff magic again, check swing foul, fastball swings and misses, be ready for a slider away, fly foul down first just missed catching, dumb fan with plumbers crack cost him, grounder to short and flip to second Cabrera coming into second and cano drops the ball after the force and Berry scores, Wow,

Tigers lead 1 - 0,

Dirks grounder to short,

kuroda with 89/90 pitches,

Tigers lead 1 - 0.

The Prince AB really put the brakes on that inning. Oh well, we move on.

A run is a run, but that was a pathetic inning.

HELL no lmao especially when you factor in we have to get through the 8th with Benoit on the mound lol.

 

[cmlfactor]

Gonna start calling Dirks "Delmon, Jr."....or "White Delmon"....what do you think?

 

[jdbaker1]

I am going to be Captain Obvious here but it would be huge if Sanchez could keep them from scoring this inning after the Tigers finally break through

Cano is having a terrible post season...I'm not so sure DY would have been doubled up when they showed that replay.

surprising considering how hot he was ending the reg season.

That's always the key...have a shutdown inning after your team scores for you.

 

[kalinecountry]

so far In the postseason, Yankees are 52 for 248 (.210) with a .285 OBP and .333 SLG. During the regular season: .265/.337/.453.

 

[manchild98]

Avila takes his customary shot off of the mask.

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

take ibanez out of the equation and you're looking at sub .200 for the rest of the team.

 

[manchild98]

Crap...Granderson w/ a 1 out walk.

 

[manchild98]

Grandy steals 2nd but Swish K's.

 

[kalinecountry]

couple innings ago, Minus Jeter's 9-for-27, the Yankees were hitting .198 in the playoffs.

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

last year Posada was the tiger killer...

that dude had like 8 walks in a five game series.

 

[manchild98]

That looked like strike 3...Avila dropped it. That was a definite strike.

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

def put that one on avila.

still a strike tho
