I got home from the game about half an hour ago and I’ve just got to say tonight was amazing.
I didn’t particularly like how the Yankees got there, but honestly Andy looked shaky from the get go so I knew something bad was coming. Melancon giving up that hit and the lead immediately was not [...]

A Miracle Occurs
NO PLEBIANS ALLOWED

This goes well with those quote from the aforementioned noted hater of the working class stiff:
There’s an area by the Legends Suite which is not an area that fans can get into,” Trost said. “If you purchase a suite, [...]
This Weekend at Yankee Stadium (In Pictures)
Continuing my catalog of views in New Yankee Stadium, here are my seats from the two games I attended this weekend.
While some of the Upper Deck infield views are no longer as awesome as they used to be, the Outfield is much improved. You can now see the whole field pretty well, though the corners [...]
A New Day, A New View
Last night I went to the Twins game with my friend the Minnesota fan who came to town to see his team and the new stadium. Thanks to the way the ticket market is going right now, I was able to get two seats in 227B (Main Level), Row 18 on the cheap as I [...]
Baltimore Series Preview: Frights and Delights

The Orioles are still a flawed, in transition team with a scary good offense and scary bad pitching (except Jeremy Guthrie and to a lesser extent, Koji Uehara). Whether or not the series comes [...]
Two Nights Even Drunk Idiots Couldn’t Ruin
My baseball marathon for the week ended last night. Unlike the team itself I have an off day today before going again on Friday which is good, because I need to do laundry.
The crowd on Tuesday (at least in my section) was hands down one of the most annoying I have dealt with, ever, at [...]
Chien-Ming Wang’s Release Point Last Night
In last night’s game I’d rather not talk about (but will later on anyway), Chien-Ming Wang came up in pseudo mop-up duty. Since we already know that his release point changed at around the time he became less effective, I figured I’d take a look at it using the Brooks Baseball Pitch F/X tool.
And now, [...]
Chien-Ming Wang’s Release Point, May 27th
Quick and dirty, here’s his release points from tonight (thanks to Brooks Baseball as always for the easy to grab Pitch f/x info).
Compare to his last start. It moved a little bit horizontally and down just a tad. It seems to very slowly be getting back to where it was vertically Pre May 2008 (or [...]
