So is Nady. I'll take Nick Swisher in right field, though. He's just astounding.

you might as well let him pitch...i mean he is the yankees second ace. lol

Wasn't Swisher the only one to pitch a scoreless inning during that game?

yea, and he also recorded a strikeout as well.

At this point in the season, I agree. Swisher's been on fire but let's see him over the long haul. He had a bad year last year and I'm hoping he's not just having a hot start and then is going to fizzle out. But he seems like a guy they need in the clubhouse who can bring some humor and a light atmosphere when needed.

I love his energy. Just as Cano and Cabrera energized the Yankees a few years back, I think that Swisher may have the same effect. I sure hope so.

And I think that he not only had a strikeout, but didn't he hit a homerun in that game, too??

I can't wait to see the opening ceremonies. We're DVRing it.

OK... the Yankees are getting pounded now, but you gotta love the fact that two of the Cleveland home runs against them were immediately thrown back onto the field by fans.

They're really missing their righty bats.

I didn't know the Tribe was playing the Yanks today. The Indians beat the Yanks huh?

Freaking bullpen. Unbelievable. After that great win last night, with my boy Jeter hitting the winning HR.

We're watching the opening ceremonies right now. What a beautiful day for it.

I watched some of the festivities. It's always nice to assemble the old faces of the franchise. It seemed to me that the vet, who received the biggest ovation, wasn't Reggie, ogi or Whitey, but Paul O'Neill, a quiet bulldog of a player. Probably almost half of the fans there don't remember Reggie playing. It makes me feel old.

But what is up with Joe Pepitone? Was that a joke? I thought people only looked like that at Halloween. He looked like that cheesy night club character that Andy Kauffman used to do...Vic Something-or-other.

Also, while introducing the Yankee batting lineup, I would have selected music other than the Star Wars theme.

I missed Bernie Williams playig the guitar in centerfield (He's really promoting that CD). And I missed the laying of Babe Ruth's bat at home plate. When many of Babe's artifacts were on tour from his museum in Baltimore, I made a point to see it when it came to town.

Bernie played well, Klyd. They have his autographed guitar on display at the Hard Rock that's in the stadium, too, which is kind of cool.

Btw, where are all the "Jeter's over-rated", "he's started his inevitable decline", "He can't hit in the clutch," nay-sayers now? Isn't it Derek Jeter who has now won TWO games with a home-run?

It was great to see Mo on the mound last night. He may be almost 40, but the man can still throw.

Jeter's the worst shortstop in the game

update every five days: what happened to the poor chinese fella? ERA reads 34.50, is that a typo?

forget about it, the next guy up is named "Claggert" and his ERA is 162.00!!! is a hacker messing up mlb.com gameday or are the Yankees enjoying the worst inning of their life?

13 hits, 14 runs in 1 inning.

Maybe the Brian Cashman era will soon come to an end. My daughter was at the game today. She said after the 3rd inning her row was empty. They enjoyed the fights and the police escorting people out of the stadium. The $7 french fries were also good. Chien Ming Schwing! Where is Phil Hughes or Ian Kennedy? Bring back Kevin Brown and Fat Ass Clemens.

Damn, I forgot to watch the game today.

by the looks like it u didnt missed much lol.

When the wheels come off the Yankee wagon, they come off with a vengeance!

Wang's ERA is matching his waist size. Another start or two and it will be matching Joba's waist size.

Tim Kurkjian said that was the first time in MLB history that a tem scored 14 runs in the second inning, and it was the most runs given up ever by the Yankees in an inning. The five games that had the largest number of runs scored against the Yankees were all against Cleveland.

Today's game was better, thank goodness.

how much did they lose by then? lol

Hey, wiseass!! They WON!

Are any of you Yankee fans worried about your new stadium? It seems I could hit a homerun to right field, and the weather hasn't even gotten warm yet. So far, the stadium looks like a pitcher's nightmare.

There did seem to be some "cheapie" homeruns over the weekend, especially to right field. Hafner hit one out to left that looked as though it was a routine flyball, but I'd wait to see how many game homeruns are hit at home, compared to away after the season's over. April is usually not a good month for long balls.

By the way, the Posada homerun looked like it was a case of fan interference. While the ball appeared to be on its way over the fence, I thought the fan reached over the fence and into the field of play before the fielder had an opportunity to catch it. As such, the batter should have been declared out. The call didn't affect the outcome in all likelihood.

They were talking about this afternoon on WFAN. 20 homeruns in 4 games. Many of which that were hit off the end of the bat and looked like routine fly balls at first. They don't know what's causing it. It may be a wind tunnel effect. Whatever it is, the have to find a way to correct it.

Wow. I didn't realize it was that many. Maybe the Yankees should start investing in some sinkerballers. Even the bad ones can help.

man i wonder how much wang gave up just on his own.

Yes, 20 were hit in the last 4 games and I believe 15 of them were hit to right field. So, to say it's a small porch would be an understatement. Am I worried? No, because it's the same distance for Yankee hitters as it is for opposing players.
