Wang Improves to 3-0

I have officially forgiven Wang for his performances in the playoffs.  That outing yesterday was an amazing performance.  Here are random things about the game:

  • Wang threw 93 pitches.  That's 10.33333333333333 pitches per inning.
  • Alberto Gonzalez can play small ball and can smoke doubles and has an amazingly strong arm.
  • Before Giambi's GW homer, he was batting .050; I'm guessing he didn't want it go lower.
  • Yankees ended two innings twice when the bases were loaded.
  • Molina is T1st in the AL with doubles.  Unbelievable.
  • Cano will come through . . . eventually. 
  • Memo to Michael Kay: I had a touch time watching the game.  All you talked about was the Red Sox players.  Yeah you mentioned things about Gonzalez, Wang, and the fact that Cano and Giambi (pre-homer) are slumping but otherwise it was Varitek this, Lugo that, Buchholz this, Ortiz that, Ramirez this, etc.  It got old fast . . . Is out-stolen-based correct English? . . . Alberto Gonzalez does not chug into 2B.  Molina, Giambi, and Posada do, but not a 5' 11", 160 lbs, 24-year-old shortstop. 

Yankees are playing the Red Sox now.  Beckett had a perfect 1st with 2 Ks and Mussina is already struggling in the bottom of the 1st.  What a shock!
