Jacoby Ellsbury steals home... with a left handed batter no less!
1/2 a billion payroll. Great Job NYY.
P-
I always want the Yanks to be really really good.
They aren't worth hating, otherwise

Pettitte had his back turned, didn't look -- pitched out of a windup when he should have been in the stretch -- everyone in the ballpark knew he was going to throw a breaking ball next. Posada should have looked, too, and didn't. So, Posada didn't stand up, which would have told Pettitte to throw a fastball, not a slow breaking ball.
So the ball was late to the plate and Posada didn't see Ellsbury coming.
Had to be one of the most embarrassing moments this season for New York.
love it.

but it didn't happen that way, now did it?
and the sign he missed, you say?
what was it, "be sure to go back to the base and wait for a bus?"
As far as stolen bases go, they don't even refer to them as "stolen bases" in Boston....theft is assumed for all citizens there.

YOU GET THE BIG FAT REC'D!
Missed sign? Tedious and predictable.
Ellsbury ALWAYS has the green light.
P-
I was rebutting that foolish presumption
Of course Ellsbury had the green light -- he's a born thief

Before you get all high and mighty...I don't like the Yankees either. So, you are wrong about me being a Yankee sore head or a sore loser. Get a grip, lord knows you'll need one this season.
I'll take a winning streak like this one any day -- and enjoy it while it lasts
I am looking forward to seeing the Sox play the Rays next
Sometime this season the Rays will wake up and be dangerous again
I like them when they are as they are fun to watch
I don't like to watch teams, like the Nats, who play so poorly they make a game tedious
Now a game or two where a team I've supported for more than 5 decades and my father before me overcomes a 5 or 6 run deficit to win, sorry, but I'm going to have my fun no matter what you say
so you are still a sorehead, regardless of who you root for
perhaps you ought to take your own advice
