We’ll have to keep an eye on Brad Bergesen, because he was throwing damn near invisibly through six and a third. Alex Rodriguez stalked him to the eighth pitch in the first inning, splattering his fourth home run and sixth hit. Barring that, and save the two walks issued before Chris Ray blew the game, Brad showed skill out there. I’m imagining Shoe enjoying the work he put in, live from the Bronx. That said, nice to see CC Sabathia humming along in a professional manner. It’s been a LOOOOONNNNNGGG time since the Yanks had a horse – personally, I had started to believe they never would. Brian Bruney was hitting 95 mph on the gun last night. Phil Hughes versus Jeremie Guthrie tonight.
Free Ryan Church!!! Free Ryan!! Not even funny anymore. Jerry Manuel is playing with fire. Not enough can be said to that point. Carlos Delgado has surgery and should be back by August. In the meantime, J-Man can have the pitchers keep doing the little things like batting in runs for themselves.
Random events seem to take a poetry of their own at Citi Field, don’t they?
That all said, it sure is nice to see Juan Pierre batting leadoff – I suppose him and his speed are suddenly back in style and worthy of a starting job. File him under, “he been done wrong.” Him and Church.

Right, because the time to rest a guy is after you lose 3 in a row and he is red hot.
Murphy in the 4 slot? Really? I wonder how many times he sacrifices and when he gets pinch hit for?
Once again the Mets don’t have their best 8 on the field and that is on the manager.
Martinez hit two home runs last night and is now slugging .552, which is good for seventh overall in the International League. The six players ahead of Martinez are all over 25 years old, such as Shelly Duncan and Jonny Gomes.
Shelly/Jrz vs. Jonny wont die!
Nice first for Hughes.
Please Jerry, just one time put your best 8 on the field at the same time.
Lev – can you believe that line up?
I think Wright was left out by accident.
Damon was sucken wind around third. No slide.
everyone loves aroid in the bronx. what a bunch of frauds.
singelton says the ball Tex hit would have been out of most stadiums. is he kidding me?
yanks inc. starting to make me ill. good sign for yankee fans.
Kung Fu better start hitting or his ass will be on a slow boat to China
dont send him to flushing.
Daniel Murphy in the 4 spot and I’m nauseous.
Is Flushing in China?
smells like it
lev – i copied that of metsblog. gotta think wright is batting 4th
yankee stadium homer by Nicky Swish
back to back cheapies in da bronx.
no mention of short porch by yankee crew. shocker.
melks was a blast
i can take a hint. im going to go watch some paint dry.
later.
dont forget to tune into the Mets at 10pm.
Everyone see Unshod sitting in the left field bleachers closer to left center a couple of rows up?
Melky crushed his.
That is terrible baseball by the Orioles, especially down 4 runs with Huff on deck.
No, Babe, China is in Flushing.
Didn’t see the Shoe.
Cano and Melky 5-9, 2 HR, 5 RBI’s
Someone has to tell Danny that at first base he has to have his foot on the bag and he should be giving the guy a target inside the bag there.
Did this guy just fall out of the sky with a Met hat on?
ESPN,shows Ellsdingleberry making 12 put outs so I guess that means he will get player of the month or possible MVP?
Why does ESPN get a hardon over this kid? He steals home he’s the next coming of Christ but Jason Werth steals second,third and home in the same inning and you hear nothing.
babe – i think its “selective viewing”. i felt like i saw the werth steal 40 times.
