Can you say Cy Young? On Wednesday night versus the Orioles, the phenom Phil Hughes delivered another stellar outing, going 7 innings with 7 Ks, 1 BB, 6 H, and only 1 run allowed.

When asked after the game why he's been so dominant this season, the 23-year old responded, "When I turn the hat around, it's like a switch."

    We have a plan and we are sticking to it. I’m very engaged with other clubs in the process. We are doing our due dillegence on a number of fronts. God help the rest of baseball. Engage the process.

  7. Pete's Supporter(sorta) says:

    He didn’t say it didn’t count. It’s pretty obvious to anyone paying any attention to baseball in any way at the moment that a dominant performance against the Orioles is less impressive being that they rank 27th in runs per game and they have the worst record in the legue

    Hughes has been dominant against every team this season minus the Boston start and the Mets start.

    This is what a pitcher with his stuff should be expected to do vs. the orioles
    & thankfully he did.

    The Yankees can’t really win when they play bad teams.

    Yankees lose: WTF THEY LOST TO THE ORIOLES THIS TEAM SUCKS SEASON OVER

    Yankees win: Who cares, it’s just the Orioles.

    I know the Yankees are good but imagine how much better they would be with me instead of this Nick Swisher. He plays way to hard and will get hurt. The Yankees have no lazy latino’s and it will cost them come post season. First me, then Bunting Bobby “rico suave” Abreu, who’s next? Is there no room for lazy latin waste on this team? so unfair.

    One day when i was a child i woke up with a wall next to me, it violated me in so many ways. Ever since I’ve never seen a wall i don’t hate and will never go near one.

    On a serious note, do you think the Yanks could acquire Ty Wiggington. He could replace the human scab, Nick Johnson. Plays first has some pop and he “plays the game the right way.”

  31. Pete is right says:

    once this easy schedule is over things will be back to normal and the yanks will be mediocre again and likely back in 4th place. the o’s and indians are free wins so lets not excited over this. before this series we were awful against the mets, sox, rays and twins and the wins we got were lucky. and cano is the only hitter in the lineup having an allstar year, lets forget this past week.

    Jim Joyce, you’re a disgrace. No, not because you got the call wrong but because you prolonged a game by doing so. Asshole.

    naw never seen it

    and i have to disagree, love the ssssssstttrrriiiiikkkkke call. I’ll take that all day long over the other guy who stands there for 20mins then makes an arm movement to indicate strike.

  39. Joe West says:

    I’m actually have been talking over with my agent a new strike 3 call. If someone goes down looking i’ve wrote a country song for it, it will be blasted over the PA system, I will then walk out in front of home plate and do the electric slide while saying striiiiiiike 3. Look for my next show at a ballpark near you.
