that was Hughes' runner on base that he walked & gave up a big double to Ortiz to set up that passed ball... if he settles down here he should be fine... Yanks are trying to rally now w/men on 1st & 3rd w/1 out in the 2nd w/Melky up.
Yeah...
Hughes still looks good, he's hitting all his spots and his breaking ball is looking real good. I know he's given up 2 runs, but he does look pretty good.
i dunno, i must be watching a different game cuz in the first 2 innings the Sux hitters have been hitting the ball hard all over the field... 1 laser linedrive by Ellsbury right at Cano was 1 out, Ortiz creamed one down the line for a double, Lowell blasted one over the LF wall for a HR, Nick Greene just missed another HR deep on the warning track in Left CF... the only time he looked good was when he struck out Puke... so far 57 pitches, only 31 strikes, not that great a ratio... just walked another batter & behind on the count to Puke 3-1 w/0 outs... Hughes gotta settle down here... this Red Sux team can score runs in a hurry.
got Puke to GIDP... good job.
Huge DP! Nice!
I am seriously rooting for Hughes to get through 5 here and for the Yankees to somehow get this kid a W. I don't want him back down in AAA again.
JD w/a single... good thing for that DP.

me too... we need Hughes to stick.
Jeter makes that play a couple years ago... Hughes in trouble again... 1st & 2nd, 2 outs... tough hitter at the plate in Lowell who hit a HR last time up.

Yeah, Jeter would have. Can't believe Hughes is basically at 70 pitches already, lol.
RBI single for Lowell... 3-0 Sux.
gotta face facts bro, Hughes has been struggling all night w/his control... that hit was a dunker but he walked a man on base again & has already given up 5 hits, 4 walks & 3 runs in 3 innings... those are horrible #'s... Yankee offense gotta wake up & start hitting but the way Lester's throwing tonight that's a tall order.
holy crap, another K for Lester... #6 in the 3rd inning.
finally, Cap'n Jeter gets a basehit to LF... let's go Damon, keep the line moving.

Teix up w/2 outs... come on big money man, do something! JACK IT!

I can't face the facts!!!!
LOL Teixiera. What a fucking bum.
another run for BOS on 2 doubles in this inning to Ellsbury & Ortiz... Hughes has failed tonight's test bigtime.
Too bad we didn't get rained out.
another K for Lester... #7 in the 4th... can't wait to see this game featured all day tomorrow on Sportscenter.
When is Hughes gonna come up big against a good team, especially the Red Sox? When are any of our players going to show up for these games?
