Something to think about as we near the home stretch: as of today, the Red Sox have just 14 road games left on their schedule, while the Yankees have just 14 home games left on their schedule.

Good

The MFY always seem to be home. I know the schedule balances out but it bugs me series after series to see the MFY at home

RS

have 7 left with the Yankees, 6 with the Rays.

All of the last 9 Yankee games are against Boston (3) and the Rays (6).

Same more good news to start the day

the Yankees are losing 3-1 in the 3rd and the Rays are down 2-0 in the 9th. Let’s hope the scores hold and we can take this game tonight!

Hughes out after 2.2 IP and 4ER

Apparently his fastball was only hitting 90 in the 3rd inning (per Michael Kay). 4-1 A’s

Lulz!

Strikeouts are boring- Besides that, they're fascist. Throw some ground balls - it's more democratic.

Yup.

Did Kay...

… describe it as a “blazing” 90 mph?

If he did, it was purely sarcastic, I'm sure

IIRC, he’s been critical (or at least wary) of Hughes’s velocity. Pretty much all of NY talk radio has been wondering LOL WUT is up with Hughes’s arm, when they aren’t talking about what a boneless squab AJ Burnett is. Which, granted, hasn’t been very often.

BTW, greeting from North Jersey. I come in peace, so please don’t throw eggs. I vastly prefer the Sox over the Yanks. Grew up near-ish to NYC, but never felt any attachment whatsoever. I could never get into any NYC team. Maybe it’s just being a Devils fan and growing up on a steady diet of RANGERS SUCK. Somewhere along the line, I got vomitously sick of the Yankees—which granted isn’t their fault. ATM, I don’t hate the Yanks, I just like to root against them, if that even makes sense. I’d love to see the Sox win the ALCS against the Yanks and see my Facebook stalker feed implode.

I also tire of hearing “You’re from New Jersey, you have to root for New York!” Jigga…what?

So…hi.

PS: Thanks for annihilating the Flyers this year.
