CC and Big Al, That's Baseball; Delgado Cleans Out the Pirates; KEV86 Wins the 2-for-3

May 9, 2009 By LibertyBoy 149 Comments

Yanks (14-15) win.  Mets (15-13) win.  Kev wins.

CC Sabathia busted out his “A” game while Alex Rodriguez shared his feelings on the first pitch.  This is the game that CC can pitch and that’s what ARod does for a lineup.  Talk about horses.  It’s nice to see that ARod’s presence seems to back everyone back down to a more fitting spot in the lineup.  Robbie Cano, struggling of late, batted seventh and collected two hits.  Tonight, it’s Phil Hughes versus Adam Eaton.

Mike Mussina is coaching Little League.

Chad Jennings writes an excellent little piece on Ian Kennedy.

O’s Jeremy Guthrie has improved in May.  In 14 innings, he has yielded 7 earned runs – however, he also struck out 11 batters while walking only 3.  He is throwing strikes (131-212) and getting more groundouts than flyouts (20-10).

Mets keep a-rollin’, the streak is at five games and they improve to 15-13, nipping at Philly’s heels in the standings.  Yes, I know it’s May.  Jon Niese threw strikes and had an excellent spot start, going toe-to-toe with Yankee alumnus Jeff Karstens for six innings.  Carlos Delgado is 8-for-17 with 7 RBIs in 6 games in May.  His April wasn’t bad by a long stretch, a .250 batting average belied the fact that he batted in 16 runs.  Today, it’s John Maine versus Paul Maholm.

Kev86 is the first winner of the 2-for-3, with his selections of Jose Reyes, Nate McLouth, and Brian Roberts.  Hope that win doesn’t suck out any MOJO from the lottery ticket he went out to buy.  But if he DOES win the Mega Millions, I have a great internet startup investment for him to consider.  Ahead of the curve!!!

  13. Markakis didn’t put his best swing on that one though, according to the fellas in the booth. It cleared the iron fencing but it wasn’t his best.

    libertyboynyc May 9, 2009 at 8:23 pm

  33. Anybody have Greg Zaun tonight?

    jrzinbatonrouge May 9, 2009 at 9:27 pm

  34. speaking of rocked I see some Led Zep clips posted…Bonzo was the tits. No drummer did more w/ a snare, 1 mounted tom, 1 floor tom, a kick drum, a hi hat & a ride. Often imitated never duplicated. Perhaps my single favorite drummer.

    supernaut924 May 9, 2009 at 9:31 pm

  35. he didnt stop hittin that high hat for 14 years.

    jrzinbatonrouge May 9, 2009 at 9:33 pm

  36. no doubt bro…his fills are the best. “In My Time Of Dying”, “Achilles Last Stands”, “Out On The Tiles”, the list goes on & on…
