Very lucky for Keith Foulke's sake.

Keith Fouke is getting better and better, don't know if he'll get his closer's job back though.

The Yankees will not win the world series. They may outslug the poor teams enough to scramble into the playoffs but they cannot beat the good teams.

Good to see the RED Sox spoil Johnny Damon's return with a 7-3 win over the ees.

Awesome to see Doug Mirabelli back also, great day.

Ouch!!!

BOS 14
NYY 3

Johnny 0-7 against the Sox this year, starting to wonder if we're paying him to bring them down from the inside

P.S. Looks like Boston is actually going to bo Fox Sports on Tuesday

I backed Atlanta this morning and they made a mess of Florida. I took a double into the Reds and thought they were gone when they allowed 4 runs at the top of the 9th and were trailing 4-1 against the Nationals. The Reds scored 4 in the bottom of the 9th with Griffey jnr scoring the winning run in his first game back. Matsui broke his wrist against the Red Sox and Arron Rowland broke his nose (but saved three runs!!) for the Phillies against the Mets http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/...id=1449289&vkey=wrapup2005&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb

NYY/Tex game is amazing.

Yanks down 9 - 1 after two. Now leading 11 - 10 after six.

Jeter with a 3 run homer in a 6 run 6th!

ing amazing stuff.

(And Scott Proctor pitching in the 7th for the first time pitches walks a guy with 4 straight balls).

And just as i click post, Proctor gives up a homer to give Texas the 1 run lead.

After Randy and Moose, our pitching falls away massively.

Proctor gives up another hit. 3 batters, 1 walk, 2 hits, 1 homerun.

After Randy?

 

[Derek Zoolander]

After Randy?

I know he hasn't started off too well, but he's an old man. He'll come good

 

[Derek Zoolander]

YANKEES WIN!

Homer to Jorge with Damon on bottom of the 9th.

Brilliant. Just brilliant.

I changed my packages basically so i could see more baseball and the NBA play offs. So far i've seen few baseball game and 0 Yankee games.

 

[DaSawx]

There hasn't even been near as much NBA playoffs this year as there was last year either, really dissapointing

 

[Derek Zoolander]

Speaking of disapointing...

Speaking of disapointing...

go on...

You wont see many Yankee games on Fox in this country they have their own TV deal over in the US, for some reason we get a lot of Dodgers games - youll be an expert on them by the end of the year.

The FOX US contract runs out at then end of this year and it doesnt look like they are bidding on it again. They have lost their interest in baseball, the ratings of the last few world series has been really bad

ESPN has bid again although they have NASCAR next year, so I'm not sure how that will affect us.

NBC looks like it wants baseball back again, they will take over the Fox deal.
