Jamie Insalaco
Leave it to me to jinx the Yankees. As soon as I IM the update to my girlfriend, all hell breaks loose:
Jamie: 6-0 yankees after 4
Jamie: Javy is dominating – 37 pitches, 4 IP, 3 hits
girlfriend: nice!
Jamie: well its 6-3 now in the bot 5
girlfriend: eek
girlfriend: off how many hits
girlfriend: one? or is he just in trobule now
Jamie: well they got 4 more hits
girlfriend: ah
Jamie: 6-5 Yankees, Javy is getting rocked
Jamie: home run Matsui
girlfriend: ack
girlfriend: someone is throwin in bullpen right?
Jamie: ha you would hope so
Jamie: but Javy is only up to 80 pitches
girlfriend: that sucks. well at least they are hitting today
girlfriend: so can still recover
Jamie: right thats a good point
girlfriend: are there outs?
Jamie: nope, 0 outs
Jamie: here comes Robertson
Yeah, I guess that’s how it goes sometimes.
David Robertson’s job kind of suchs…. Joe Girardi always seems to turn to him in these kind of high leverage situations, these thankless tasks where he comes into difficult situations and has to play fireman and get the blaze under control. And he did it again today. I’m a big D-Rob fan, but I feel like he doesn’t get his due.
Huh, Joel Pinero is going out there again for the 6th; now that the game is within 1 run and he’s at 100 pitches, I thought he’d get pulled…
(FYI, I don’t believe in jinxes)
