Killjoy punks, too. They need to post a sign as people enter that crap hole they call a stadium: "YOU ARE ENTERING AN AREA THAT IS ACROSS THE STREET FROM SACRED GROUND. NO FUN ALLOWED." from SI.com: When the Yankees banned iPads early this season, it was an eyebrow-raising decision that confused most people. Their decision to ban vuvuzelas this week is probably one that won't attract such scorn. The vuvuzela, for those who remain somehow uninformed, is the incredibly loud plastic horn being blown non-stop during the World Cup in South Africa that seems to be annoying pretty much everyone except the people blowing the horns. FIFA has elected to allow fans to blow the horns during the World Cup despite complaints from fans, players and TV viewers, citing the fact that the games are in Africa and the vuvuzela is part of African soccer culture. It's not part of Bronx baseball culture, though, and the New York Post story linked above has stories of the horns already being confiscated from fans in the bleachers. There will likely be a swath of vuvuzela bans in the States in wake of the complaints coming from the World Cup. Is that overkill since most teams already allow cow bells, Thunder Stix, and drunken fans with vocal chords into stadiums? The difference here is that none of those other in-game annoyances cross the 120-decibel threshold of ear pain that the plastic horns create. The prices at the new Yankee Stadium are already insane, so it seems fair that fans shouldn't have to pay extra in terms of permanent hearing loss.

So... what they're saying is, they'd prefer if I used my iPhone to make the same noise? No problem!

Don't worry about losing two out of three to the same ice-cold Phils the Mets swept a couple of weeks ago. At home. By, like, a lot, and to less-than-great pitchers, too. It probably doesn't mean anything.

Frayed Knot Jun 17 2010 08:22 PM Re: KTE - MF Yankees

Yanx offense still leads the AL in runs scored - despite scoring just 3 runs total off Moyer & Kendrick over the last two games. 1B - Teixeira -- not as inept as earlier in the season but it's almost too late for this to become anything other than a very off season for him 2B - Cano -- just the opposite. Best hitter on the team right now. SS - Jeter -- having a typical Jeter-ish year 3B - Rodriguez -- missed a few games and/or was relegated to DH recently on account of a mangina injury or something. Power is off this year. C - Posada -- just off the DL but is still missing games and DH-ing. Girardi won't play him behind the plate back-to-back LF - Gardner -- no power, but fast, good D, and hitting better than the Yanx had any right to expect CF - Granderson -- also off the DL recently. Only an OK year otherwise RF - Swisher -- nice season for him The pen pre-Rivera is where we have to smack these guys around. Joba seems to alternate good and bad outings and just melted down again tonight - and now the fill-in guys are being gang-raped by the Phillies as well. Sergio Mitre just DL'd Can Ike make one of his patented over-the-rail catches at YSIII or does he have to buy one of the over-priced and $12 beers seats first?

I switched to the end of the MFY game after hearing Mets finish 'em off on my run, and Sterling was in rare form. There was a play where a Philly baserunner may or may not have been struck by a batted ball and the call was ... nothing. He had no idea what happened, couldn't even tell me what he did see, and Suzyn was no help. In the "theater of the mind" there were no actors on stage.

Ceetar Jun 17 2010 10:44 PM Re: KTE - MF Yankees

Totally exploitable team. We can take them, especially as we're hot and they just dropped 2-3 to one of the most inept offenses in the game lately. (What, I cant' be cruel to the Phillies too?) A-Rod has hip tendinitis, which definitely is not related to the surgery that he had early last year that was supposedly going to need a second surgery in the offseason but magically recovered really well (I'm sure he only took it once, he just wanted to get back on the field after all) We're due to hit Vazquez. Our young 9-1 pitcher is better, and it's getting real close to the second half for Johan. Oddly enough, the name of the game may be don't let Cano beat you. Oh, and the stadium has only one year of history, no truly great Hall of Fame players played there (Babe Ruth may have walked by that area once), they aren't too classy for a mascot (they just sucked at it) and their park has little league dimensions. I can see the Mets hitting a ton of home runs this weekend. Also, aggressive play and running on Posada should work. The outfield, although it's played well, is not really that good defensively, especially Swisher. Push the envelope, take the extra base, steal bases (don't bunt when pop flies are home runs), and make them make good plays, because they probably won't.

[quote="Nymr83":28lsl2wl]wow. Paul O'Neil looks like SCREECH![/quote:28lsl2wl] MFY fans refuse to listen when you tell them he was a .265 hitter in over 3,000 AB when he played in the NL. And that's because: In their minds, only Yankee numbers count, and They don't want to admit how really shitty AL pitching was during that era, or What a fucking bandbox Yankee Stadium was. To them, O'Neill was a firebrand. Most folks define that as "flaming asshole". Oh, Screech was more manly. Later

Edgy DC Jun 18 2010 07:31 AM Re: KTE - MF Yankees

I don't know why I mention it, but I guess I can't get it out of my head, but Derek Jeter's got as good a chance as anybody since Robin Yount (and probably a better chance) to make a run at Pete Rose's hit record.

Don't forget the A-Rod quest towards 800. *vomit*

Ceetar Jun 18 2010 07:36 AM Re: KTE - MF Yankees

Jeter's only 46 hits away from the Babe. (Obviously not all as a Yankee) wonder if they make a big deal out of that milestone as well? I just loaded up the hit list. It's odd to see all the annotations+ to indicate Hall of Famer on the list, except the first one.

Frayed Knot Jun 18 2010 07:45 AM Re: KTE - MF Yankees

[quote="Ceetar"]Don't forget the A-Rod quest towards 800. *vomit*

A quest that's starting to take on less of a stink of inevitability now that the 50+ seasons of recent vintage have dropped to 35 & 30 the last two years and now just 8 so far in this one (at a rate of about 20 for the full year) for a guy who turns 35 in a few weeks with a bad hip in an age where the "cures" are less easy to get.

I just loaded up the hit list. It's odd to see all the annotations+ to indicate Hall of Famer on the list, except the first one.

There's going to be a lot of that going around on numerous lists.

They probably would have still won if they hadn't pulled that forty-year old lawyer out of the stands and let him play CF. (If we're fantasizing, might as well go all the way.) At least he had those curvy blonde triplets to ease the pain of losing.

Edgy DC Jun 18 2010 10:57 AM Re: KTE - MF Yankees

Chan Ho Park remains the representative sex-Met on the Yankees, having giving up a run in 1 1/3 innings in the first series. I'd like to get through Yankee play without appearances by former Mets. Last year all they had was Xavier Nady on the disabled list and that was, in it's own way, a little too much to bear. Future former Met Angel Berroa also got hit by a pitch and scored as a Yankee, and had the Mets picked him up a few weeks earlier, he might've been the first player to see both sides of the rivalry in the same season.

Ceetar Jun 18 2010 11:27 AM Re: KTE - MF Yankees

Chan Ho pitched last night when Joba and Marte couldn't get outs in the ninth. So the odds are better that he won't pitch, but he seems to be the mop up guy, so i'm hoping we see him.

Gwreck Jun 18 2010 12:26 PM Re: KTE - MF Yankees

[quote="Edgy DC":usumq2of]he might've been the first player to see both sides of the rivalry in the same season.[/quote:usumq2of] That's a great trivia question answer. The only other possibilities that came to mind were Armando Benitez and Darren Bragg (traded midseason) but they didn't play for both teams against each other.

Edgy DC Jun 18 2010 12:31 PM Re: KTE - MF Yankees

Allen (Alan?) Watson, perhaps?

Ceetar Jun 18 2010 12:41 PM Re: KTE - MF Yankees

Doesn't look like there are any. Benitez pitched against Seattle as Met. Against the Yankees as a Met. and then against the Yankees as a Mariner.

Edgy DC Jun 18 2010 05:34 PM Re: KTE - MF Yankees

Darren Bragg just missed, getting grabbed on waivers a few days before the first series.
