GOTTA SCORE HERE

Awesome 3 run blast by Josh

[bullets13]

what a start!  vlad almost hit one right after that, too.  hit it to the wall, granderson caught it reaching up and leaning against the wall.

Great start

[bullets13]

a single by cruz.  the only out so far for CC is a 402 foot flyout by vlad.  a very good sign for the rangers that the 3 rangers they needed to pick it up have done so.  after being essentially non-factors in the 1st series, young singles sharply, Hambone hits a 3-run bomb, and vlady misses a HR by about 5 feet.

CC just got bailed out.  what an unlucky bounce for the rangers.  i'd like to see another angle to that replay to see if that was the right call or not.

that was terrible luck.

I slowed down my VCR, the play was bang, bang..foot was touching plate just as CC was tagging elbow

[Guest (13)]

There's your angle. Ump got it right

another run would've been huge, but i'm not going to bitch about a 3-0 lead after the 1st, and CC with a pitch count of 36 after only 1 inning.  

[bullets13]

what a play!  nellie wasn't going to get that one!

[Guest (13)]

yeah and I heard some talking heads say NY middle relief wouldn't be a factor.  They could be a big factor in this game.  Rangers can explode opening game.


What a nice catch by Andrus.

6 up 6 down

[bullets13]

3 up 3 down for the rangers in the 2nd, but they did make CC work in the 1st two at bats, and his pitch count has ballooned to 50. 

[Guest (13)]

hit and walk for yanks. 1 out, 2 on

[bullets13]

great job by Wilson to get out of the jam!  3-0 rangers, going to the bottom of the 3rd.

[Guest (13)]

yeah, nice to get Jeter and Swisher in the 1 and 2 hole.  that was pretty big

[Guest (13)]

respect to Hamilton.  Sabathia won't make it through 5

[bullets13]

rangers fail to capitalize on a runner on 3rd with 1 out.  again a bit unlucky as a nellie smashed a ball with one out but RIGHT at AROD. 

[bullets13]

CC at 67 pitches after only 3 innings.

I agree with the TV dude, should be 5 or 6 to nothing.  They need to knock CC out and the emotional lift will be huge

[Guest jhamilton]

Yanks need a BIG SWING.

big swing and a miss

[bullets13]

rangers living on the edge a bit.  CJ gets out of a 2-on, 2-out jam, but Posada hit the ball well, just right at Cruz.  the rangers need to start taking advantage of their chances as well.  this game should be 5-6 to 0 right now.  you can't let the yanks hang around.
