Originally posted by trunks1022 because of the error by wright. the runs are not earned in that instance. vizquel does not score assuming that wright makes the throw for the final out. the person that got on base for bonds' HR is also unearned because he reaches on an error. i'm sure bonds' run isn't earned either

oh didn't know that happened in the 9th

went to st. louis recently, and took some pics of the new cardinals stadium .. and thought i'd share it .. but i am a yankees fan.





took this while the car was moving .. but got the arch in it.

random baseball pictures i've taken this season



opening day - shea stadium (Mets v. Nationals)



angels stadium - (Yankees v. Angels)



dodger stadium - (Dodgers v. Giants)

Watching the yankees game i seen this guy get warmed up in the pen his name is Rudy Lugo....i played against him in highschool-he went to xavarian in brooklyn, i played for st francis prep, he threw pretty hard in highschool, pretty cool to see him make it.

Originally posted by Shamez214 Which is why, when I look at pitcher's stats, it's much better to look at WHIP than ERA. Wagner still gave up a homerun to Bonds. But because the error would've been the 3rd out, ALL runs after that would be unearned. Which is ridiculous.

Either way, Wagner does not put alot of people on base. Once in a while, shit happens - luckily shit doesnt happen to Wagner that often.

I played with him on a youth service summer team

which youth service summer league?

i played summer ball for Bayside Yankees, played against him in the summer as well.

my coach was mel zitta 1996 i think, it was one season because it was a bitch for me to commute from li to the games. played for li tigers in falls usually also the smithtown bulls teams

now that i think of it probably more like 1994

ohhh the LI Tigers, I played you guys a few times during highschool. Same with the smithtown bulls lol - damn that was like a lifetime ago lol, i use to LOVE playing baseball. Sigh to growing up...

I'm sure you've heard of the Bayside Yankees, we played the Super 7 in Atlanta and Coco Beach in Miami (got our asses handed to us in coco beach). We won the Super 7 in Atlanta and thats where I made it into Baseball Weekly as a prospect coming out of highschool. I think I still have the article. Was scouted by Texas Rangers and Cardinals at the time. I remember the press spot with the reporter, I was a really really young kid at the time and now that I think about it, some of the questions they asked me i should have answered it differently but i was young and naive and i just pitched a 7 inning game against a team from michigan (we won 3-2).

should play softball or something...

pedro vs smoltz tonight. verndogs will be in atlanta to view that one.

i put the glove away lol
anyways i stopped the game in college - was picked up by a d2 technology college (R.I.T) and I hurt my elbow (torn ligament), went through rehab with one of the ny yankees rehab trainers @ NYU Medical Center.

yeah...looking forward to having a bison dog at turner field tonight

I know not many, if any, of you guys follow the minor leagues. But I posted this in the Sports Discussion baseball thread and figured I might as well do it here as well.

Henry Owens is in the Mets minor league system in Double A. He's their closer. His stats... are... crazy. Just crazy. I've been paying attention since he had like 4 IP and 9 Ks, but he's moving towards "Has anyone ever done this before?" territory:

13.1 ip, 4 hits, 5 walks, 2 ER, 31 Ks

Yes. 31 Strike Outs in 13.1 IP. That's 40 outs recorded, 31 of them by Strike Out. Yikes.

Mets off to a good start in its games at the Ted
I hope they can perform just as well when someone other than Pedro is pitching

Ok, the Mets have INSANE setup guys as it is. Throw this kid into the mix, all you would ever need is 5 quality innings out of a starter, pitch Heilman, Dirty, Owens, and Wagner. Jesus, forget scoring on the Mets after the 5th. ROFL!

On the other hand, if this kid is really THAT good, and the Mets are that confident in him, they could prime him as a setup guy - than trade Wagner for a quality starter. Similar to what the Orioles did with Ryan - except they didnt trade him.

Well... here are his negatives:

He's 28.

So... yeah. I expect him to move up to AAA and get ROCKED and never hear from him again. As for trading Wagner... you crazy? Even if they wanted to trade Wagner, who would take him? He's got a large ass contract.

Im just blabbing stuff, I dunno, hehe.

On the other hand, I could see some teams becoming very interested in Dirty Sanchez as a closer, could turn out similar to the Tom Gordon story.

If I was the Yankees GM, I would definitely look into it because Mariano doesnt have many more years left in him, and it would be very beneficial to them to lock up someone solid to take over the duties.

Gimme Philip Hughes and I'll give you Goggles.

wow, the Mets actually win a series in Atlanta!
Tom Glavine actually wins a game against the Braves in Atlanta!

they go for a sweep tomorrow, which would put them 8 games ahead
Either way, they lost only 1 series in the month of April

Revised plan for the new yankee stadium

Gonna cost only $1499

http://mall.ballparks.com/product_i...roducts_id=2947

2 big series starting tonight:
Mets vs. Phillies - Phils are 4 games behind, but on an 8-game winning streak. I hope the Mets win at least one of the games, as a Philly sweep would pull them to just 1 game behind.

Yanks vs. Red Sox - just like the last time they met, they're tied for 1st place in the AL East.
Isn't tonight Josh Beckett's first appearance at Yankee Stadium since his World Series-winning performance in 2003?

It's too bad there are forecasts for rain throughout the week
I hope that doesn't come to fruition, and dampen the fun (literally)

Speaking of rain, the last Yanks-Sox game at Fenway was rained out, so it will be made up as part of a double-header on Aug 18. That will be the start of a 5-game series that weekend.

Randy Johnson doesn't make it through the 4th inning

Melky Cabrera already having problems in the field in his first day back in the bigs - dropped the Manny pop-up (partly due to the wind), after a 12-pitch at-bat

bad news for the Yanks, as Hideki Matsui broke his wrist

he joins Sheffield on the DL
