If there’s one topic I’ve potentially spilled more digital ink on than the Yankees getting beaten by pitchers they’ve never seen before/starters making their Major League debuts, it would be the team seemingly routinely getting shutdown by starting pitchers with fastballs that top out around 89-90mph, pinpoint control [...]
In Monday’s A’s series preview I wrote “Sabathia should dominate the A’s lineup and I expect the big man to come through once again in this contest.” Obviously this was far from a bold proclamation, but nevertheless it feels good to be validated. And it [...]
Dallas Braden gained some notoriety a few months ago by jawing at Alex Rodriguez after A-Rod ran across “Braden’s mound” on his way back to first base following a foul ball. It was an unwritten rule that many had never heard before, and was a popular topic of discussion for a few days back in [...]
The Yankees have already played the A’s this year, taking 2 of 3 on the road, but Yankeeist hadn’t begun detailing the team’s historical performances yet, so here’s a belated look at how the Bombers have done against Oakland in the past:

Hesitant at first to get pulled into yet another tit-for-tat with A’s pitcher Dallas Braden, Alex Rodriguez passed on making comments about his perfect game as he entered Fenway Park this afternoon. But after getting settled in, he did offer a reaction to the talkative Mr Braden’s efforts this afternoon. Here’s his quote:

Yesterday, as Robinson Cano fisted one of Dallas Braden’s pitches down the left field line in the sixth inning, Alex Rodriguez sprinted to third base. Because the ball was foul, Rodriguez then headed back to first base. However, en route to first, A-Rod chose to run straight across the diamond, stepping on the pitcher’s [...]
As I said in the comments to the other post and on Twitter, I think Alex Rodriguez was likely unaware of Dallas Braden’s silly unwritten rule, that Braden overreacted, and that Alex reacted exactly as one should when dealing with a petulant child attempting to lecture an adult on the rules of the game. If [...]
Never mention a no-hitter while it’s in progress. Don’t take the bat out of your best hitter’s hands by sacrificing in front of him. Don’t steal third with two outs. Never make the first or third out of an inning at third base. Never put the tying or go-ahead run on base. [...]
I didn’t see a minute of the third and final game between the Yankees and A’s this afternoon and I’m glad I didn’t have to waste my time, as the A’s snapped the Yankees’ six-game win streak with a 4-2 win. This game had foregone conclusion written all over [...]
