D-Unit Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 April 25th, 2006 Unit’s dominance, early Yankee rally sweeps Birds Orioles manager Sam Perlozzo made a late scratch, skipping Bruce Chen in the rotation and replacing him with Hayden Penn (0-0, 23.63). He said there is no injury involved, just to “let him rest. He was supposed to skip his start and he felt fine about still pitching. There’s no issue, just a little disappointment for Bruce [Chen].†Boy, was that a mistake. Hayden Penn (0-1) only lasted 3.1 innings, getting lit up for six runs on six hits, walking two and fanning four. The bleeding lasted a little longer, as veteran Andy Ashby pitched the remaining 4.2 innings and giving up two more runs on seven hits. He struck out three. But the pitching was one-sided, as Randy Johnson (2-0) continued his dominant start after hitting the 15-day DL with a groin injury. He went the distance for the second time in three starts, allowed a relatively high nine hits, but fanned eleven hitters, and not issuing a single walk. The only blemish to his now miniscule 0.84 ERA on the night was Miguel Tejada’s two out solo shot in the first. It would be the only Baltimore lead of the ninth, as the Yankees retaliated quickly. The Yankees posted a four spot in the first to take the lead for good. Damon lead off the game with a single, and Alex Rodriguez walked with one out. Gary Sheffield then singled in Damon to tie the game a 1. Penn attempted a pickoff move at second, but the throw was wide, and the runners moved to second and third. Two pitches later, Jason Giambi parked a flat changeup deep in the right field stands, a three run blast to give the home team a three run lead. Gary Sheffield watches his single fall in, scoring Johnny Damon to tie the game at one. Jason Giambi watches his thee run home run take flight, his seventh of the season. No more runs came through until the bottom of the fourth, when a Matsui walk and Robinson Cano double put two runners into scoring position with nobody out. Jorge Posda grounded out to second, but hit it deep enough to drive in the fifth Yankee run. Andy Phillips laced a 1-1 fastball into shallow right field to bring Cano home and make the game a 6-1 Yankee advantage. Sam Perlozzo had enough, and relieved Hayden Penn with Andy Ashby, who retired the next two hitters to end the inning. Baltimore put two men on to start the fifth, but Johnson got out of the jam, striking out five of the next six hitters he retired. The Yankees scored one more in the sixth on a Johnny Damon single, Ashby’s first run allowed. The next threat for Randy came in the seventh, with another two singles to start the frame. With one out after Corey Patterson flied out to center, Jay Gibbons ripped single into left. Johnny Damon hustled to it, got a good running jump, and fired the ball home, the destination of Javy Lopez. He was easily gunned being a slow catcher, and a Jeff Conine K ended seven frames with a 7-1 Yankee lead. Johnny Damon saves a run, gunning down a runner at the plate in the seventh. Robinson Cano watches on as the great throw heads home. The Yankees added their final run just moments after the seventh inning stretch. A Rod, the reigning MVP, stretched his bat over the strike zone and knocked a flat fastball 440 feet to center field for an 8-1 lead. Alex Rodriguez shows no mercy on Andy Ashby, drilling a leadoff home run in the bottom of the seventh. A mound visit came in the eighth, but Randy was convinced that he could go the distance, and he did with flying colors. Randy Johnson mows down David Newhan in the eighth. The Yankees will take on the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, and the series will start with Shawn Chacon (1-0, 4.91) taking on Rob Bell (0-1, 3.24) tomorrow night on YES.

D-Unit Posted April 27, 2006 Author Share Posted April 27, 2006 April 26th, 2006 Yankees continue winning streak vs. D-Rays The Yankees once again pounded the opposing pitching, this time squeezing the Devil Rays for eight runs, including five off of starter Rob Bell (L, 0-2, 4.2 IP, 3BB, 3K). The score would end 8-4 in favor of the Yankees. The Devil Rays had bright spots in the box score, as rookie BJ Upton went 4 for 4 with two doubles and two RBI. But the Yankee offense was the story, as Johnny Damon, Alex Rodriguez, Gary Sheffield and Jorge Posada all went deep. Those four men combined went 6-14 with a double, four homers, seven RBI, and 2 walks. Shawn Chacon (2-0) had a somewhat average outing, as he went 6.2 innings, allowing four runs on a high 11 hits. But it was enough to seal the win. The Devil Rays threatened in the first with a two out double by Aubrey Huff, but that would be it for now. But the Yankees struck in the bottom half, as A Rod drilled a two run bomb way back in center for a quick 2-0 lead. Alex Rodriguez rips his seventh homer of the year, a 395 foot shot worthy of two runs in the first inning. One thing the Devil Rays had going was some defense from the outfield. Center fielder Rocco Baldelli made a sparkling diveing catch to rob Gary Sheffield of not one but two hits. Devil Rays center fielder Rocco Baldelli makes an amazing dive to rob Gary Sheffield of a two out base hit. Tampa Bay didn’t score a run until the fourth inning when Jorge Cantu hit into a double play to score Joey Gathright, who would have two hits, including a triple. The Yankees plated two more Bombers in the bottom of the fourth when Jorge Posada launched a near upper deck shot into right field for a 4-1 lead. Jorge Posada gives Shawn Chacon a three run lead with a two run shot off the tier in the upper deck. One more man scored in the fifth, when Johnny Damon hit his second homer of the year, the final run Bell would allow. He would strike out Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez before Donovan Osborne came in for his relief. He allowed a Gary Sheffield double but no runs would score. Johnny Damon comes up with a homer of his own, giving New York a 5-1 lead. If not for the Yankee offense, the game would have been much closer. A two out rally by the Devil Rays plated two runs to close the game to within two runs. After Jorge Cantu and Aubrey Huff singled consecutively, BJ Upton doubled them both in with a shot to the gap. Tension rose when Shawn Chacon allowed a two out double to the speedy Carl Crawford with two outs in the seventh and Jaret Wright came in for relief. Joey Gathright, another D-Ray speedster, took the first pitch from Wright and laced it off the left field wall. Instead of bouncing off, it kept rolling as it hug the wall, enabling Gathright to slide into third for an RBI triple, to bring the deficit to 5-4. Aubrey Huff flied out to end the threat before any more damage could be done. Joey Gathright closes the game to within one, with an RBI triple off of Jaret Wright. A pattern was obvious in the seventh, as it was noticed that every time the Devil Rays scored in the top of the inning, the Yankees would score in the bottom of it. This was no different, as Derek Jeter doubled with two outs, and Alex Rodriguez was intentionally walked to face Gary Sheffield instead. What a bad mistake. The Sheff took a strike before tattooing a fastball into the right center bleachers to take an 8-4 lead. Gary Sheffield changes the pace of the game, giving the Yankees a four run cushion with a three run blast. Luis Rivas makes a great diving stop, and the throw from his knees to retire Robinson Cano in the eighth. The combination of Wright and lefty Mike Myers shut down the offense to close out the game with a Yankee victory. Tomorrow, the Yankees will put Chien-Ming Wang on the mound, as the Devil Rays will counter with their 22 year old ace Scott Kazmir (2-1, 2.00). The game will start at 7:05pm on YES.

D-Unit Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 April 27th, 2006 D-Rays even series with 8-4 victory The Yankees ended their eight game winning streak, as the Tampa Bay Devil Rays pounced on Chien-Ming Wang for 13 hits and seven runs in only six innings en route to their 8-4 victory over the Bronx Bombers. Leading the Rays was Carl Crawford, who was 2 for 5 with a home run and three RBI, all on the blast. BJ Upton also kept hot against the Yanks, going 2 for 5 with a triple, two more RBI, and two steals, the only of the young year. Strong pitching was also key, as Scott Kazmir (3-1) got the victory, going seven innings and allowing a reasonable four runs on five hits, walking three and only striking out one. Quite unlike the young ace but the victory was his nonetheless. The Yankee offense wasn’t too shabby despite Johnny Damon and Derek Jeter combining to go 0 for 10, as Alex Rodriguez hit his eighth homer of the year, and is now on a home run torrent. Robinson Cano added a three run home run into the upper deck that gave the Yankees a lead for a bit. The scoring began in the bottom of the second, when a Matsui walk and Jorge Posada single put two on, and Robinson Cano found a 95 mph fastball right over the plate and crushed it for the 3-0 lead. Robinson Cano connects on a three run homer in the second. The landing site was the upper deck in right field. It wouldn’t last long as the D-Rays struck gold, with Nick Green’s solo shot to lead off the third. With one out, the speedy Joey Gathright tripled again, scoring on Aubrey Huff’s single to make the game 3-2. Jorge Cantu struck out, but then BJ Upton laced a two out triple deep in the right center gap to drive in a pair to give the Devil Rays a 4-3 lead. The Devil Rays take the lead on BJ Upton’s two run triple in the third. In the bottom of the inning, New York would notch it up when Alex Rodriguez would take Kazmir deep for a solo shot, the game tied at 4. Kazmir would allow a Jason Giambi single before retiring the next 15 of 16 Yankees to end his outing. Joey Gathright watches Alex Rodriguez tie the game at four, to the tune of a 412 foot shot to left center. The top of the sixth was rally time, as two singles by Luis Rivas and Toby Hall set the stage for Carl Crawford’s three run upper decker for a 7-4 lead that would never be lost. Carl Crawford outdid Robinson Cano, as his homer went even further up the upper deck than the Yankee second baseman. His homer was also a three run blast. The game only allowed one more run, thanks to an uncharacteristic Derek Jeter throwing error that ended the scoring at 8-4 Tampa Bay. Robbie Cano turns two to end the seventh innings, nearly getting taken out by Jorge Cantu. Reliever Ugueth Urbina makes an incredible catch, a screaming liner from Robinson Cano went right into the D-Rays pitcher’s glove. The series finale will feature Carl Pavano (1-0, 3.00) looking for a second consecutive win against the winless but tricky lefty Casey Fossum (0-2. 6.65) tomorrow on YES.

D-Unit Posted April 30, 2006 Author Share Posted April 30, 2006 I got through the following games by managing: April 28 - Pavano vs. Fossum: In the series finale against the Devil Rays, the Yankees lost 1-0 in 12 innings. Carl Pavano went 11 innings without a run, striking out six. D-Ray starter Casey Fossum went nine innings and shut out the Yankees as well. However, Yankee reliever Kyle Farnsworth lost the game in the twelfth when Luis Rivas singled in Rocco Baldelli to capitalize on a two out rally. Doug Waechter got the win, pitching three scoreless innings. April 29 - Johnson vs. Halladay: The opener for the Blue Jay/Yankees series was a pitcher's duel between Randy Johnson and Roy Halladay. The Blue Jays got to Johnson, as Troy Glaus hit a three run homer in the fifth, and in the six and seventh two more runs scored on singles by Frank Catalanotto and Alex Rios to make it 5-0. But in the bottom of the sixth the Yankees began scoring when Hideki Matsui walked in one with the bases loaded. Nothing else happened until Derek Jeter walked with the bags loaded in the seventh to make it a 5-2 game. Alex Rodriguez then singled in two to make it 5-4, and Giambi's groundout tied up the game after 8. The game ended in the bottom of the ninth when Hideki Matsui's two run homer off Dustin Magowan ended the game 7-5. Scott Proctor got his third win of the season with two scoreless innings, bringing his record to 3-1. April 30: - Moose vs. Burnett - Rain Out I'm gonna play the next game, posts will come in a few hours. The format will be somewhat different again.

D-Unit Posted May 2, 2006 Author Share Posted May 2, 2006 April 30th, 2006 Doubleheader – Game 1 New York Yankees (15-6) vs. Toronto Blue Jays (5-16) A-Rod’s A-Bombs propel Yanks to victory Alex Rodriguez’s home run torrent continued, as he blasted two solo shots off of Jays starter A.J. Burnett (L, 7IP, 6H, 2R, 4BB, 4K) and send the Yanks to the eventual 3-0 win in the Bronx. Burnett pitched what some would call a gem, allowing two runs on six hits. But the lack of run support sent him to a horrible record of 0-5. On the other side, Mike Mussina (7.1 IP, 5H, BB, 2K) pitched brilliantly to improve to 2-0, and his shutout innings brought his ERA from 4.15 to 2.92. The first threat to score was Toronto, as in the third with one out, two singles were piled on by Aaron Hill and Ruben Rodriguez. Frank Catalanotto flied out, but then Alexis Rios doubled. Thanks to Hill’s bad jump and the strong arm of Bubba Crosby (letting Johnny Damon play DH), a play at the plate nabbed Hill to hold the game at zero. Bubba Crosby guns down Aaron Hill to hold the game scoreless in the third. The Bombers stranded two runners on the corners in the third, but in the bottom of the fourth, Alex Rodriguez’ ninth home run of the year gave the home team something to cheer for. But again more damage could have been done, as a Matsui walk and Posada single amounted to nothing. Alex Rodriguez locks in on A.J. Burnett’s slider and drills it over the center field wall to give the Bronx Bombers a 1-0 lead. Another potential Yankee rally emerged in the seventh when Derek Jeter was up with two on and two out. But a line drive in what seemed to be in the gap was snagged by center fielder Vernon Wells, who flashed signs of a five tool player today. Vernon Wells robs Derek Jeter of what should have been a two run double, maybe triple to end the seventh with a sparkling catch. Alex Rodriguez went deep again to chase Burnett, and then Jason Frasor pitched the eighth, surrendering a Jason Giambi RBI single that was set up by a Gary Sheffield double for a 3-0 lead. Alex Rodriguez knows this ball is gone, and so is A.J. Burnett’s final pitch of the ballgame, another slider. His second homer of the game made it 2-0. Mariano Rivera earned his ninth save of the year with little concern despite a Vernon Well solo shot but left The Sandman unrattled. Derek Jeter shows how a Gold Glove is earned, making the defensive play of the game in the ninth. Notables: Rios: 2-4, 2B( Wells: 1-4, HR(, RBI (18) Notables: Damon: 1-2, SB (9), 2BB Rodriguez: 2-4, 2 HR (10), 2 RBI (27) Today’s doubleheader will be completed at 7:05pm when Shawn Chacon (2-0, 5.04) tries to make his ERA look as good as his record against Josh Towers (0-0, 1.20) who has given the Yankees trouble. Once again, the game will be broadcast on YES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Unit Posted May 2, 2006 Author Share Posted May 2, 2006 April 30th, 2006 Doubleheader – Game 2 (Sim-managed, no screenshots) New York Yankees (16-6) vs. Toronto Blue Jays (5-17) Cano’s Hot Bat Gives Jays Doubleheader Broom Robinson Cano was the key of the night, as he went 2 for 4 with a home run and three RBI. Jorge Posada also had two hits, one was an RBI double. The New York 8-9 duo drove in four of the five Yankee runs in the 5-1 doubleheader sweep of the Blue Jays. Shawn Chacon remains undefeated at 3-0, earning the win with hard work (7.1 IP, 6H, R, 2BB, 4K). The Yankees finally got to Josh Towers (0-1), who did pitch well. But the 6 innings pitched charged him with two runs on 4 hits, which was enough to give him his first decision of the year. It wasn’t the one he wanted though. He also walked 5 and struck out 3. Notables: Wells: 2-4, HR (9), RBI (19) Hill: 2-5 Notables: Posada: 2-4, 2B (4), RBI (11) Cano: 2-4, HR (7), 3 RBI (20) Side Notes: Bengie Molina was hit by Chacon and thought it was intentional. He tried to confront Chacon and the home ump stood in his way. Bengie bumped chests with the ump and was ejected from the game. Tomorrow night, Chien-Ming Wang (2-2, 7.48) will start game one of a two game set with the Boston Red Sox at Fenway. Tim Wakefield takes the mound for the BoSox (0-1, 6.47). Johnny Damon’s return to Boston will be televised at 7:05pm on YES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Unit Posted May 2, 2006 Author Share Posted May 2, 2006 May 1st, 2006 Game 1 of 2 (Sim-managed, no screenshots) New York Yankees (17-6) vs. Boston Red Sox (14-10) Damon’s Return Not Too Dramatic Ex-Red Sox icon Johnny Damon faced the Boston Red Sox for the first time in a Yankee uniform, and he wished it would have been a much better experience. Damon said after the game, “Damn. That was a horrible game. I sucked. Tomorrow will be much better. That’s a gurantee.†Damon went 0 for 5 in the Yankees’ 5-3 loss to the Red Sox at Fenway Park. Boston had an early lead when in the first, Mark Loretta doubled in Coco Crisp, and came home when Manny Ramirez drilled a two run shot for a 3-0 lead. The Bombers struck in the top of the second, with a rally emerging from a Bernie Williams single, followed by walks from Cano and backup catcher Kelly Stinett. Johnny Damon popped up and then Derek Jeter singled in two to cut the deficit to one run. They tied it in the fourth with two outs. After Bernie doubled, Cano got on with an error at short, and Stinett doubled Bernie in to notch it at three. The tie was broken in the seventh when an Ortiz walk and Trot Nixon double set up Jason Varitek’s RBI groundout followed by Mark Loretta’s RBI single. That would be the final score, and the game ended with Keith Foulke striking out the side to earn his second save of the year. The Bomber pitching got bombed, as Chien-Ming Wang took the loss (2-3) and was charged with five runs on six hits in his seven innings. He walked seven and struck out seven. On the other hand, Tim Wakefield earned his first win (1-1) with 7.1 innings of six hit, three run ball (two earned). He walked three but struck out nine. Notables: Jeter: 1-5, 2 RBI (13) Williams: 2-4, 2B (1) Notables: Ramirez: 1-5, HR (11), 2 RBI (33) Lowell: 2-4, 2B (5), RBI (29) The series finale will see Carl Pavano (1-0, 1.06) trying to even the series against Boston ace Curt Schilling (1-3, 7.85) who hasn’t shown he is an ace. The first pitche will be at 7:05 on YES. MINOR LEAGUE UPDATE: Philip Hughes, the AA pitching prospect, pitched a complete game loss hours before the Yankee-Red Sox game. He went eight innings, allowing one earned run on five hits, walking two and striking out nine. He looks impressive at the new level, and may see time at AAA this year.

D-Unit Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 May 2nd, 2006 Game 2 of 2 New York Yankees (17-7) vs. Boston Red Sox (15-10) Pavano dominates Sox to split series Carl Pavano (2-0) needed to even the series so the Yankees could leave Fenway Park with the same lead they came in with. He came through with flying colors, pitching a perfect game through five innings, and finished with a gem, a two hit, nine strikeout shutout. The Yankee offense clicked as well, piling on four home runs, three off of Sox starter Curt Schilling (1-4). The Boston ace was pelted with four runs in seven innings, allowing eight hits, and struck out two without a walk. Bronson Arroyo allowed the other three runs in the final two frames. Only two men got on through the first three innings (singles by Matsui and Damon), but the fourth doomed Curt Schilling’s night. Alex Rodriguez has been on fire as of late, drilling an 0-1 slider that cut just inside the foul pole looming above the green monster to take a 1-0 lead. That was all the run support necessary, but Gary Sheffield bombed a 1-1 slider the next at-bat to nearly the same extent for a 2-0 lead. Then Jason Giambi doubled off the monster. Schilling buckled down and retired Matsui and Bernie Williams on consecutive fly outs. Then the first pitch that he tossed to Jorge Posada, this time a fastball, was sent flying deep to right field, a two run blast to go ahead 4-0. Robinson Cano singled and then Johnny Damon grounded out. Damon went 1 for 5, not too good, but like he promised, it was better than 0 for 5. Trot Nixon robs Jason Giambi of a home run in the second inning to save a run. Trot Nixn can’t rob this home run. Alex Rodriguez is on fire, launching his 11th homer of the year off Curt Schilling just inside the foul pole in left field. The ball fell between the pole and the seating on the Green Monster to give New York a 1-0 lead. Curt Schilling doesn’t learn his lesson, as the same slider to Gary Sheffield drills a solo shot to nearly the same place as A-Rod. The back to back shots make it 2-0 New York. Jorge Posada continues Curt Schilling’s nightmare inning, drilling a two run shot to right field. Carl Pavano was in a groove by now, retiring the first 15 batters. But then Mike Lowell spoiled it by singling to lead off the sixth, and another hit came in the ninth on a J.T. Snow single. This masterpiece brought Carl Pavano’s ERA to a miniscule 0.69, while Schilling’s blossomed to 7.32. Rodriguez 2-5 HR (11), RBI (28) Sheffield 3-5 HR (, RBI (22) Giambi 2-4 2B (2) HR (, 2 RBI (20) The Yankees will not get an off day, as they will open a series with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Randy Johnson (2-0, 2.22) will take on Mark Hendrickson (3-0, 3.74) at 7:15pm on YES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Unit Posted May 4, 2006 Author Share Posted May 4, 2006 May 3rd, 2006 Game 1 of 2 (Managed, no screens) New York Yankees (18-7) vs. Tampa Bay Devil Rays (14-13) Yankee Offense “Out-stings†Rays The Yankees’ ace Randy Johnson had what some would call a terrible outing, and the numbers don’t lie – 5 innings, 11 hits, allowing six runs, a walk and 7 K’s. But what mattered is that his record went to 3-0 in an offensive outburst in which the Yankees and Devil Rays combined for 20 runs. But the Yankees scored 13 of them, as they opened a series with the 13-7 victory at Tropicana Field. Mark Hendrickson (3-1) took his first loss of the season, lasting just 1.2 innings, allowing seven runs on eight hits, walking four and fanning one. His relief did a little better, as Seth McClung pitched 4.1 innings and allowed four more runs on seven hits. Two more runs came off Dave Coggin before the game ended. Leading the offense were four men. Jason Giambi only had one hit but had three RBI, Derek Jeter had two, including a homer. Hideki Matsui had another two and an impressive four hits, and even backup Miguel Cairo added three hits and two RBI from himself. The Tampa offense was anything but bad tonight. Luis Rivas had two hits and three RBI. Toby Hall added three more hits and two RBI. One run would not have come in if Joey Gathright had not doubled with his speed as well as stealing third. And BJ Upton, who has been on fire against the Yanks, had two hits too. New York had an 8-1 lead heading into the bottom of the fourth, but the Rays added five runs in the next two innings to close the margin to two. But in the seventh, the Bombers took some more big hacks, adding four more men across the plate to cement their victory. Jeter 3-5, HR (3), 2 RBI (15) Matsui 4-5, 2 RBI (12) Cairo 3-6, 2B (1), 2 RBI (3) Rivas 2-3, 3 RBI (13) Hall 3-4, 2 RBI (11) The two game series concludes when Mike Mussina (2-0, 2.92) looks for win number 3, but has to get through the young fireballer Edwin Jackson (0-1, 5.14). The first pitch will be at 7:05 on YES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
