A-Rod is now 3-3 on the day passing Griffey, Jr. on the all-time hits list...and is at .269 for the season.
If you had told me that the Yanks would get 6 shutout innings out of Kuroda today, I would have told you that you were CaRAAAAAZAAAAAY

Sorry I had to log off of here. That start by Hiro was awesome. I was expecting him to look solid, but not that.
Wow great performance from Kuroda never expected that. BTW side note anybody known when Pettitte's first start would be? I would think they'd want to do it at home though.
Somebody on Twitter was saying Hughes was better than his line indicates, as the umpire squeezed him a bunch of times, making him get more of the plate with pitches than he would have liked. Not to mention that the Ianetta HR was a Yankee Stadium special anyway. Anyone agree? I didn't see the game, so I can't say yes or no here.
Wow...what a game tonight...I have a feeling Ibanez will be putting a few more where he put tonight... Jeter didn't look too bad either! A-Rod's glove was golden. Nova was pretty damn good too.
