*The fist player beaned in new Yankee Stadium was Mark Teixeira. He was absolutely drilled in the shoulder by Cliff Lee.

WONDERFUL!!! Too bad he didn't graze those chipmunk cheeks of his!!!! BRAVO CLIFFY!!!!!

Yanks strand a pair. Chipmunk boy and Johnny can trot their asses back to the dugout. Cliffy minimizes the damage!

0-0 end of the first!

Red Sox Nation's two favorite Yankees (NOT!!!)

Overshadowed by the new stadium celebration, is the matchup of the last two AL CY winners: Sabathia vs. Lee.

Wow, I can just imagine what a scalper got for a ticket today!

Also, the most prized offseason acquisition pitches against his former team that has raised him since a wee-pup for the first time.

* First extra-base hit in new Yankee Stadium: Ben Francisco (CLE)

PS, I'm sure you've noticed by now I'm giving you all a real-time account for all the "firsts" today in the new digs in the Bronx. Hope you don't mind. This may be useful for trivia years from now, so pay attention.

BTW HD,
I'm not sure if you realize it, but former Indian, Jody Gerut got the first hit AND homerun in the new Citi Field the other night for the Padres.

Gerut hit the third pitch of the game into the right field seats.

Thanks. I know what to look forward to tonight when I skim thru it on the DVR before the Ducks game!

Woops. Didn't mean to spoil it for you KCK. I should've announced a Spoiler Tag to the updates.

Well you ruined it for me, pal. First you call me old, then this. What's next?

Jorge Posada hits the first homerun in the new stadium.

Jorge Posada hits the first homerun in the new stadium.

I think that's quite fitting. Yogi throws out the 1st ball and today's catcher makes the first dinger.

Grady Sizemore hits a grand salami.....................Indians 9, Yankees 1

 

[BillD1984]

Victor Martinez gets in on the act with a solo homer.

Nine run seventh for the Tribe gives them a 10-1 lead.


What I thought might be the Yankees Achilles heel, middle relief, is rearing it's ugly head!

OH! I'll bet that felt good for SizeMo! No one deserves that fete more than he.:up

 

[HD MM]
