Orioles vs. Yankees 4/8/09 game 2

[J.D.]

And he's left runners on everytime. Aww...poor Tex and Yankees...

You know, I almost feel sorry... for... hi... bwahahahhahaha!!!

Sorry. It's really hard to say that with a straight face.

Does Zaun traditionally throw out a high percentage of runners? He's looked overmatched twice tonight. I've never looked that up...

Even still, he blocks the plate - pitches and runners - extremely well.

Nice slow mo on that pitch camera. It was just a tad too late for what I'm interested in though.

One of the guys in this Heineken commercial looks like he's doing the Chicken Dance from Arrested Development.

Coo Coo Ka CHAA!

Uehara is having a much better start than I anticipated. He's hitting his spots, keeps it in the zone, and he's got some lively movement. This is kinda cool.

What do you think is main reason for the steals?

Koji or Zaun?

I feel sorry for Tex. :laughlol:

Sorry, the confused face was the straightest face I could find. :laughlol:

If I'm looking correctly, he threw out 14 of 40 base-stealers last season, and 13/73 the season prior.

Not great.

Those are the links for the game all you have to do is download TVant software and you can watch the game instead of listen to it.

Hope this helps

Use the last link......that one is english. Unless of course you prefer Japanese.

how long did it take to buffer before it started for you?

Not at all.

Not bad for our backup catcher though.

Hey man, good to see you here. I took your advice and decided to jump in on a game thread!

[J.D.]

Koji or Zaun?

I'm leaning towards Koji. While Zaun's not great at it, Koji seems to be very deliberate to the plate, and he's not exactly bringing heat. When you're deliberate to the plate and you're throwing 88-90, people will steal on you.

Wang with the 4 pitch walk. Nice.

Actually the feed just went haywire.....let me see if i can find another....trying the Sopcast ones now.

4 pitch walk to Brob!

Getting a bit worried about Koji's pitch count tho, looks like even if he holds them down he won't make it past the 5th.
