Dr. Evil is happy because Number 2 is back
Hey everyone! Deuces are wild today here at the Boss. I am sitting in Section 211 Row D…Seat 2…The D is for Derek and the 2 is for the number on his back. Derek Jeter is back from the World Baseball Classic and will be in the lineup tonight when the Yankees face the Red Sox at 7:00pm on YES. Jeter walked into the clubhouse and within seconds he was a morsel of bread tossed to the flock of seagulls of reporters that surrounded his locker. Picture the scene in Finding Nemo when the seagulls were chasing after the fish in the birds mouth. Jeter talked to reporters for about 10 mintues about his experiences while away at the WBC. Including getting up close and personal with guys he has played against and getting to know their personalities.
Right now I’m just hanging out…no one is in the stadium…its quiet except for the sounds of some birds and the cars on the Dale Mabry…the road that stretches the length of the outfield wall. There are two guys hosing down the infield and the batting cage is set up. There is a tarp with the interlocking NY on the pitchers mound…and its about 78 degrees and sunny with some puffy white clouds as far as the eye can see. Its days like today, that I thank my lucky stars that I am alive and doing the job I always wanted to do. These are the times I love. The ballpark is empty with the exception of the YES camera crew setting up. All I hear now is the nice light breeze whipping through the flags in the outfield and some birds still. Out in the distance you can see the Buccaneers gigantic Jolly Roger flag blowing in the breeze. Its right over the right field wall.
The lineup for tonights game is in the YES Blog. Jeter is at short and batting second. Just a reminder I will be in the booth tonight with John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman bringing you another blog from above as the Yankees take on the Red Sox. It wont be an inning by inning…for that you can just tune into YES tonight or WCBS 880 on your AM dial. More later…TTFN
Starting Pitching Change
Brett Tomko was supposed to start today for the Yankees…Instead Chien-Ming Wang will go in his place. We’re almost ready for baseball. No more rain…yet. Phillies take the Phield.
Inning by inning – Yankees vs. Phillies in Clearwater
Gametime scheduled for 1:45 after a brief rain delay. Keep hitting your refresh button…I am going batter by batter today…
Top 1st:
Jorge Posada led off and grounded out to third. Johnny Damon followed with a rocket line drive back up the middle for a base hit. Mark Texeira popped out to first, Ryan Howard made the squeeze. One on two out for Xavier Nady. First pitch Damon stole second Ronny Paulino’s throw went into left center allowing Damon to go to third…Xavier Nady worked a walk…Robinson Cano now up with runners on the corners…and almost took one on his front shoulder on an inside pitch…on the 2-2 pitch Cano sliced one into left field…it looked like trouble but Raul Ibanez tracked it down for the final out of the inning. End of a half inning…
Yankees 0 Phillies coming to bat…
JORGE POSADA CATCHING TODAY AFTER HIS STINT IN A MINOR LEAGUE GAME YESTERDAY WHERE HE THREW OUT THREE OF THE FOUR BASE STEALERS THAT TRIED TO SWIPE SECOND. LOOKS LIKE HIS SHOULDER IS BACK. JOSE MOLINA WAS SCHED. TO START…
Bottom 1st:
Wang’s first pitch was a strike to Eric Bruntlett and he got him to ground out softly to Mark Teixeira at first…he took it himself…one down…Jayson Werth now up…and he flew out to Johnny Damon in left….now its Chase Utley’s turn… and Utley flies out to Johnny Damon in shallow left center field. Inning over…three up three down for Wang…very economical with his pitch count…End of 1…Yankees 0 Phillies 0
Top 2nd:
Cody Ransom led off the inning and struck out swining on three pitches. Melky Cabrera still in a battle with Brett Gardner for the centerfield job singled into right field from the right side of the plate. Joe Girardi told the media earlier in the week, it IS possible for both Cabrera and Gardner to make the trip north. Ramiro Pena popped out in the infield for the second out…and now Chien-Ming Wang is up…standing on the fringe of the batters box as far out as you can be…basically standing there with the bat on his shoulder…saw six pitches and didn’t swing and struck out looking on a 3-2 pitch. Yankees 0 Phillies 0
Bottom 2nd:
Ryan Howard leading off for the defending World Champions and the big fella was down 1-2 and worked out a walk…Raul Ibanez the former Mariner singled into right on a baltimore chop over the head of Mark Teixeira at first…Ryan Howard moved over to third…and now former Blue Jay Matt Stairs stands in…3-1 now the count to Stairs and he grounds into the 4-6-3 DP…Cano to Pena to Teixeira. Ryan Howard scores…no ribbie for the not so fleet of foot Stairs…now rookie Jason Donald 6’1″ 190 out of Clovis, CA…playing short with Jimmy Rollins on his way back from the WBC…both of these teams are without their star SS’s because of the Classic. Donald drew a walk and the theme to “The Greatest American Hero” blared over the PA as he made his way down to first, “Believe it or not, I’m walkin on air.” Donald stole second, on an 0-1 count to catcher Ronny Paulino – Posada’s throw was a little high and Donald slid in safe…but Paulino struck out swinging. End of the 2nd. Yankees 0 Phillies 1
Top 3rd:
Jorge Posada to lead things off as the Yankees order flips over…Posada leading off today…he grounded out to third his last time up against J.A. Happ batting from the right side…this time Posada worked a walk bringing Johnny Damon to the plate who singled in his first at bat…and Damon keeps his perfect day in tact working a four pitch walk…Mark Teixeira now at the dish…and the rain is starting to come down again…1-2 count on Tex…and he grounds into a 5-4-3 DP with Posada making his way over to third. Xavier Nady hit a hard ground ball to third…it ate up Eric Bruntlett andn Nady beat the throw to first…Posada scores…we’re tied at one…Robinson Cano ended the inning on a FC 4-6. Yankees 1 Phillies 1
Bottom 3rd:
Wang and Posada are still the battery….
Leading off for the Phillies J.A. Happ the starting pitcher…and he strikes out swinging…next batter, the third baseman Eric Bruntlett and he singles into right center…one out one on for Jayson Werth, Werth flew out to left…this time he grounds into the 5-4-3 DP to end the inning…started by Cody Ransom…Wang throwing some ground balls and Joe Girardi has to like that. We head to the 4th…Yankees 1 Phillies 1
Top 4th:
Cody Ransom struck out in his last at bat…this time he flies out to medium LF for out number one…Melky Cabrera was next and first ball swinging he grounded out to third…Bruntlett to Howard…Melky 1-2 on the day with a single. Ramiro Pena getting the start at shortstop today and singles on a looping liner over the second baseman’s head into right…one on two out…again Happ having some issues as Wang is standing basically in the Phillies 3rd base side dugout…he is so far to the left in the right hand batters box…and once again the at bat is six pitches long…it went from 3-0 to a backwards K this time. It looks like Wang is under orders not to swing because the bat is not coming far off his shoulder. Yankees 1 Phillies 1
Bottom 4th:
Chase Utley led off and grounded out weakly to Teixeira at first…Ryan Howard walked his last time up…in the box once again…Howard is looking very slimmed down this spring training…he is still a big guy…but looks to be in terrific shape…with a Jason Giambi like shift on…Cody Ransom playing short instead of third made a TREMENDOUS leaping snow cone grab on a hard hit liner that was on its way into left for a base hit…two outs and now Raul Ibanez up he singled in his last at bat…and this time he paints the left field line with a ground ball and has himself a two out double…Matt Stairs grounded one high towards the mound…Wang got up grabbed the ball and threw out Stairs at first…End of 4…Yankees 1 Phillies 1
Top 5th: HAPP STILL PITCHING
Jorge Posada still in and leads off the inning…Posada grounded out to third in his first at bat…walked and scored the only run in his second…and grounded out to short here to lead off the 5th…one out…and now Johnny Damon is up 2-2 count…3-2 count now and Damon hits a fly ball that almost brought the rain back into RF…Matt Stairs camped under it and made the catch…Mark Teixeira now up…he popped out in his first at bat…and grounded into a 5-4-3 DP with runners on 1st and 2nd in his second at bat…but this time doubles on a line drive down the left field line and he is promptly brought in by Xavier Nady as he singles on a liner into left…Robinson Cano flew out to left and the inning is over…but the Yankees pick up a run to take the lead…Yankees 2 Phillies 1
Bottom 5th: WANG STILL CHUCKIN
Jason Donald flew out to right…a lazy fly ball that Melky Cabrera easily put away…Ronny Paulino followed with a worm burner back to Wang who made a nice play to throw him out…at first…two away and now pinch hitting for the pitcher J.A. Happ Geoff Jenkins and he flies out to Johnny Damon in left…one, two, three for Wang…We head to the 6th…Yankees 2 Phillies 1
Happ’s Line 5IP 5H 2R 1ER 3BB 3K’s – Clay Condrey starts the 6th and will face Cody Ransom, Melky Cabrera, and Ramiro Pena
Top 6th:
Ransom grounded out to Chase Utley as well as Melky Cabrera. Now Pena comes in, a switch hitter batting left…he is 1-2 today with a single…make that 2-3 with another single on a looping liner over the shortstops head…Chien-Ming Wang only saw three pitches this time…good morning, good afternoon, and good night…Wang with the hat trick…in hockey good…in baseball bad…and he will head out for his sixth inning of work…Yankees 2 Phillies 1
Bottom 6th: Jose Molina now catching…
Eric Bruntlett leads off…he is 1-2 with a single…make that 2-3…he hit a grounder right over the third base bag…for a lead off double…after a brief meeting between Molina and Wang…we are set for Jayson Werth 0-2 today…he singles into center field on a line drive…the ball was bobbled by Melky Cabrera and Bruntlett scored…Bruntlett would have scored anyway…single and an RBI for Werth and we are tied at two…and that ends the day for Wang…Brian Bruney will make his way in from the pen…
Wang’s Numbers as the rain begins to come down in buckets again…
5IP 5H 1BB 2K’s
Bruney got Utley swinging…and Ryan Howard now up 2-2 count…the rain is REALLY coming down now…and Howard gets punched out on a check swing by home plate umpire DJ Reyburn…he didn’t like it…but its March…he didn’t really put up too much of a fight..Ibanez with his bat soaking wet took a swing on a 2-1 pitch…lost the bat and it flew out to first base…Teixeira had to run to get out of the way…with a smile on his face…no harm no foul…Ibanez back in the box…2-2 count and Ibanez loses the bat again on a swing it settles right at the lip by first base and the ball found some grass down the right field line for an RBI double…Phillies go on top 3-2…Matt Stairs just crushed a 1-2 Bruney offering just to the left of dead center field next to the batters eye…for two more Phillies runs…Donald flew out to left though to end the inning…Phillies four runs on four hits…Yankees 2 Phillies 5
Top 7th: BRAD LIDGE PITCHING
Molina strikes out swinging in the lead off spot for probably the last time this season…Jorge Posada led off the game for the Yankees and Molina replaced him…Brett Gardner was next subbing for Damon and Gardner hit a slow roller to third and beat it out for an infield hit…what else is new…Gardner lightning in a bottle to first…even on a muddy track…he’s a mudder…
now Nick Swisher stands in…he hits a hard liner to second…its caught by former Yankee Miguel Cairo who took over for Chase Utley…and he doubles off Brett Gardner at first…inning over…Yankees 2 Phillies 5
Bottom 7th: CHANGES: DAN GIESE PITCHING/JUAN MIRANDA AT FIRST/EDUARDO NUNEZ AT SS/AUSTIN JACKSON LF/DOUG BERNIER AT SECOND/ANGEL BERROA AT THIRD
Giese started the inning by striking out Ronny Paulino – Paulino 0-3 with 2 K’s – next batter – pinch hitter Jason Ellison singled on a hot shot that ate up Angel Berroa at third – it was ruled a base hit…then Eric Bruntlett split Brett Gardner and Nick Swisher in center and right for a ribbie double…6-2 Phillies…now Rich Thompson who took over for Jayson Werth in CF is up 2-2 count…and Giese got him with a nasty curve ball swining for strike three…Miguel Cairo followed and the former Yankees utility man hit a blast up near the Tiki bar in left here at bright house field…a two run dinger…8-2 Phillies…Marcus Giles lined a double over the head of Nick Swisher in right as the Phillies hit parade continues…as the rain continues to steadily fall…its been heavy at times during the game here today…but its a light drizzle at the present time…Carlos Ruiz is now up and he is hitting for Raul Ibanez…Ibanez was perfect today with a single and two doubles…Ruiz struck out looking on an outside breaking pitch and the inning is mercifully over…after taking a 2-1 lead in the top of the fifth…the Phillies have scored seven unanswered…Yankees 2 Phillies 8
Top 8th: SCOTT EYRE PITCHING FOR THE PHILLIES
Angel Berroa made the first out of the inning in his first at bat of the day…Juan Miranda now in…he absolutely destroyed a home run in the Yankees win Thursday against the Blue Jays…full count on Miranda and he skied one to the first base side…a tough play…and Bruntlett makes it on the run sliding on the grass to make the catch…Now Austin Jackson who took over in LF stands in…Jackson was in Trenton last year and is one of the best prospects in the minor league system…Jackson caught looking on a knee buckling breaking pitch…Eyre goes three up three down…Yankees 2 Phillies 8
Bottom 8th: BRETT TOMKO NOW PITCHING FOR THE YANKEES

Thanks for hanging with me today for the game and braving the rain…It has been a pleasure for me to bring you all the action from Clearwater today…Don’t forget to check out the site later tonight for the interviews we got before the game with Brian Bruney, Nick Swisher, Cody Ransom, Jim Kaat, and Hal Bodley from MLB.com who has been covering baseball since 1958. He is a senior correspondent for MLB.com and a legend in the business and we appreciated a couple minutes with him today. Tomorrow its the rivalry renewing itself once again…The Red Sox invade The Boss tomorrow night for a 7:00 game on YES. I will be back in the radio booth watching the game as John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman provide the call for WCBS 880AM. Until tomorrow boys and girls. Have a great night!
Tarp is off the field … Twice
Sitting in the visiting TV booth here at Bright House Field in Clearwater we were watching as the grounds crew was taking the tarp off the field to a standing ovation by the fans here who have braved the weather to this point. And they took it off the wrong way the first time and they got water on the outfield grass…a pretty good amount of it too…they had to drag it back and take it off the right way. Like I said there has been a drought here in the area…maybe they forgot how to take it off? Despite the mistake though, we hear the game should be starting at 1:45. We are now listening to Jimmy Cliff’s version of, “I Can See Clearly Now the Rain is Gone.” After being serenaded as previously mentioned by some songs with rain in the title. Such as: It’s Raining Men, Have You Ever Seen the Rain, good job by the Phillies people in the booth.
Observations: The place is packed…there are people beyond the outfield…the grass continues up a hill and people are on blankets getting their first glimpse of the sun…still mostly overcast here in Clearwater, but the sun is fighting its way through the doom and gloom. There are grounds crew members preparing the infield…Chase Utley and some of his teammates came out to stretch. Chen-Ming Wang went out to the outfield for long toss…and he will be starting NOT Brett Tomko as earlier reported. Tomko was on the dry erase board in the media room, but it will indeed be Wang. More and more Yankees are out of the clubhouse and doing their warmups. Cano, Teixeira, Ramsom, Cabrera are all getting some running in on the outfield grass…
Coke Update
Phil Coke did not make the trip with the team and Joe Girardi didn’t know if he would throw a bullpen session today. Coke is still recovering from taking a line drive (or leenya as he called it) off of his left thigh last Wednesday.

LIVE FROM SOGGY CLEARWATER IT’S MONDAY AFTERNOON BASEBALL…MAYBE…
Guess who’s back…back again…Hey everybody! Happy Monday! Sorry for my enthusiasm for this Monday. Normally Mondays are reserved for sour pusses and dreading the drudging back to work after a nice two days off.
Not this Monday. Not for me. This is a different kind of Monday. A Spring Training Monday. I’m not in a cubicle and I can’t hear anyone answering the phone repeatedly saying, “Accounts payable, Nina speaking, just a moment.” Little Office Space humor for you there…and it continues…This guy typing definitely doesn’t have a case of the Mondays as I listen to the Mama’s and the Papa’s “Monday, Monday” blaring over the speakers here at Bright House Field in Clearwater, Fla., as the Yankees are set to take on the World Champion Philadelphia Phillies in Grapefruit League action. The Yankees are coming off a 5-0 loss to the defending American League Champion Rays yesterday, where lefty David Price was nearly unhittable.
First let me tell you about our adventure to get to the ballpark this morning. I brought my GPS device down here, or as I like to call her, Lola, and Lola ran us into a little bit of trouble at the outset of our trip. We started out going the right way until Lola told us to turn around and head in the other direction. As we got on Route 275, I told Kevin Sullivan to check to see where this thing was taking us, and as he scrolled ahead to the upcoming turns, it turns out we were headed to Jacksonville. Um…I’m not very Florida literate…but…as I use my Ron Burgundy voice as I type…Even to the laymen Jacksonville is not Clearwater…agree to disagree…when in Rome…
There is construction all around our hotel, and they warned us about using a GPS, but did we listen? Nope. Just thought that would amuse you. I hope it did.
We were able to talk to Nick Swisher, Brian Bruney, Cody Ransom, Jim Kaat, and Hal Bodley of MLB.com. We are in the process of editing all of these pieces and as soon as they are done they will be up on the site. Plenty to look forward here today on the new YESNetwork.com! Come back during the day and I will have game updates…hopefully because right now it is a monsoon here in Clearwater. This area needs the water though. They are going through a drought. TTFN…
Clearwater Tomorrow
Hi all…your friendly neighborhood blogging maniac Chris Shearn here…just a quick note to let you know we will be in Clearwater tomorrow when the Yankees take on the World Champion Philadelphia Phillies in Grapefruit League action. We will have updates on the game and interviews from both clubs. Hope you are tuned in from work, home, or wherever!
New Mexico in the house!
Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting a couple from the great state of New Mexico. The husband is a lifelong resident of the state and a huge Yankees fan. His wife just recently jumped on board and I don’t think she really had a choice. They have DirecTV and wanted to know why certain programs are blacked out on DirecTV in their state. I did some digging and here is what I found out. Yankeeography and Yankees Classics are productions by MLB and under the contract we have now we are not allowed to show them outside the footprint of the tri-state area. I hope this clears things up. There will be another update on this as well. Check back in! I hate forgetting people’s names…and I did in this situation…I hope that nice couple will forgive me and I hope they had a great time here on their first trip to Tampa.
CC and Jorge Down on the Farm Updates
CC Sabathia and Jorge Posada are the starting battery in a minor league game going on right now in Tampa at the Yankees minor league complex across the street from the Boss….and I will be bringing you updates as the game progresses…
Top of the 1st Sabathia went three up three down – the leadoff batter for the Pirates minor league squad lined out hard to right…and Sabathia struck out the next two hitters he faced. The first one window shopping…just browsing…looking take your pick…and the next one went down swinging.
Bottom of the 1st…Jorge Posada batted second and flew out to left batting from the left handed side of the plate. CC is out for his second inning of work now…I will be back with an update shortly and will definitely let you know if Jorge throws anyone out.
Top 2: After a leadoff double and tag to third on a fly out to center…Jorge Posada made a visit to the mound and we can just speculate that he told him to check second to see if the runner had left early…and CC checked and indeed he did…thats cheating…he was called out…so with two outs Sabathia got the next batter to ground out to first base and he covered the bag with the greatest of ease. Very fleet of foot for the big fella…No score
Bottom 2: Posada came up again just four batters after his first out…obviously just trying to get his at bats in and get them in early…there are no rules in these minor league tilts when the big clubs players are trying to get in some work…and Posada struck out on swinging on three straight pitches.
Top 3: First batter – ground out to short…Sabathia is very economical with his pitch count so far…second batter lazy fly ball to centerfield…we call those a can of corn…two out…but they let the batter stay on first…he stole second on the next pitch and Jorge’s throw sailed to the right side of the bag…it was a strong throw…just off line…safe at second…the runner who was out…then scored on an RBI single into left field…so he was out but he scored…there rules…I don’t make them up…last batter grounded out to Eric Duncan at third. CC so far 3 innings two hits two strike outs and a run if you want to count the guy that was out on the fly ball that they let run at first…
Bottom 3: CC did not bat and neither did Jorge nothing to report on the big club. Jorge is on the bench still in his catchers gear and CC is still on the bench…we expect both will come out for the 4th…
Top 4: CC and Jorge are back out as expected…Jorge was talking to Tony Pena between innings and Pena told us in our interview that the first throw Jorge made to second in a minor league game when Andy Pettitte started on Thursday…was clocked at 2.15 which is good…then the second throw was 2.00 and his fastest throw of the day was his third throw which came in at 1.95 which according to Tony is excellent. When they went down to second before the inning started his throw was pinpoint accurate and quick…First batter of the inning singled into left field, but was quickly erased by Posada who threw him out at second…his first of the spring…and we were here…one out…Sabathia still working…next batter flew out to shallow left…two outs…next two batters singled…one to center and one into left…first and second…two outs… next batter walked…bases loaded now…Sabathia in a bit of a two out pickle…gets the next batter though to ground out weakly to third…inning over…So far…CC through 4…four hits…two strike outs…a walk…and no runs allowed…unless again you count the fake run from earlier…see above…
Bottom 4: Jorge got one more at bat…and reached on an error…his grounder to second was booted by the second baseman…
Top 5: CC and Jorge are still the battery…if your Metallica fans… BATTERY!!! And back to the game…first batter doubled down the left field line…a worm burner that painted the line… after a fly out to right…the runner on second went to the bench and they sent a pinch runner to first…all to help Posada work…and Posada’s throw on the steal was his best of the spring! Nailing the pinch runner by at least 2 steps…another pinpoint throw down to second…and it was on a pitch down in the zone…a tough pitch to throw anyone out on and Jorge did just that…and another pinch runner was inserted and he met the same fate…another throw out for Posada on another tough pitch…a laser beam to second and the runner was meat…Posada then bolted for the dugout…but we are playing five outs this inning…again not my rules…and by the way the Pirates third base coach looked in at the Yankees bench and asked if they should send the runner and the bench said yes…great stuff…the fifth out of the inning was a strike out looking for Sabathia…I would do his line but with the five outs its very confusing…
Bottom 5: CC and Jorge are done for the day…signing off from Yankees minor league camp this is your buddy Chris saying have a great Sunday and we’ll talk again soon…
