It's weird pulling for the Red Sox. For any reason.

Soriano and A rod have been God sends for the Yankees who have had 9 lives this season. Cant give Cashman credit there--it was the owner who made that call. Also nobody wanted A rod--not 1 fan management other than the owner. Steinbrenner helped the Yankees this year. Give A rod some credit--hes played very well hen he couldve been terrible in many aspects. It shows that his stupid personal mistakes with Steroids shouldve been avoided--the guy is a great baseball player who did not need the drugs. Hes going to get some sympathy now and people rooting for him to beat his case when NOT 1 person wouldve otherwise.

The owner made the call on Soriano? didn't know that.

Everybody loves anybody who's batting 2nd, hitting .300 and getting doubles in the gap and slamming game-tying homers. Let him choke in the playoffs, or down the stretch, and everybody will be back to talking up his banishment and how the Yankees should be able to void his contract and invest it in some other starphucques.

Cmon, bonnie, pay attention to the radio. Susan Waldman informed us that the ball hit his shoe, so he's out.

I didn't realize that if it hit you when you swung, that meant you were automatically out.

You are not out if you are in the batters box or in foul territory.

I believe she stated he was on his way to first. I guess he was in the basepath, out of the box.

The pitch hit him on the basepath? That doesn't make sense.

If batter swings and misses and the ball hits him, then it is strike 3 and the ball is dead once it hits the batter so the batter can't run to first base. That's my understanding.

Did he swing and slightly hit the ball the then the ball bounced and hit the batter outside the box? That is what I was assuming.

If batter swings and misses and the ball hits him, then it is strike 3 and the ball is dead once it hits the batter so the batter can't run to first base. That's my understanding.

The ball hit his shoe. He's out. Move on.

On a better note, this CJ guy is so vastly better than Susan Waldman to listen to, I'm starting a petition to ask that she stay out on permanent observance of every Jewish feast day for the next 15 years...

I'm guessing they spend whatever is necessary to keep Cano. And then let the starphucquing begin in earnest. Doesn't look like there's a core 4 lurking down on the farm anywhere...

I'm more interested to see what happens to Cashman...does he stay?

All we have to do now is win all the rest of the games! It could happen!

I think the playoffs have gone buh bye. Just as well. Wouldn't want to make it just to get swept by the Bosux.
