Holy offense, Batman!
April 17, 2008I thought football season was over! Last night the Yankees scored two touchdowns and a two-point conversion while holding the Red Sox to just three field goals for a final score of 15-9. I am getting ready to head out on business this weekend and am rather busy at work, so I won’t be able to go into as much depth as usual, but here are some highlights:
RBI for everybody except Matsui who was 2-4 with a BB and a run. Wanger got roughed up for 8 runs, but one bad start out of 4 isn’t a bad deal. The bullpen locked the Sox down after CMW got the hook, though, and saved the game. Ohlendorf allowed the only run in 5 innings of relief – Hawkins (W, 1-0), Traber (One pitch vs. Ortiz), and Bruney (1.2 IP, SV) were damn solid. Hopefully Moose will pitch at least 6 tonight so they can get some rest and maybe just use Albaladejo, Farnsworth (shudder), and Mo for the 7th, 8th, and 9th.
Holy Moeller! 4-10 in three games with 2 walks and an RBI. Depth at every position has saved the Yankees from falling hard due to injuries.
Joba’s dad is doing better. Hopefully Joba takes some time to be with him until he’s 100%. Family is the most important thing. The Yankees will always be here for him.
RCMW: Molina and Posada are still improving but still not ready to catch. Molina is about 60% and can back up if Moeller needs it.
