The New Yankee Stadium has turned into HomeRun Stadium. The 4 game opening series between the Yankees and Indians had at least 20 homeruns.

HomeRun Stadium finally settled down a little bit. The Yankees/A's game only had one homerun as the Yankees won 5-3.

I hope the homer thing is overblown and will settle down. Nice win last night, today's game starts in 15 mins, it' Brett Anderson vs CC Sabathia, Yanks need to win this one with that matchup.

Well, hasn't slowed down today. Suzuki, Matsui and Cabrera went deep. I really won't care as long as we're hitting most of them.

You can add Jeter to that list now. 4 homers at HomeRun Stadium so far. 25 homeruns have been hit so far in the first 6 games.

It's really depressing to see your team tied at 7-7 when they're out-hitting the opponent 15-6. Bases loaded, no outs, and by the end of it no runs. Craptastic.

You can thank Melky for that one. Pitcher is struggling to throw strikes and Melky is swinging away and expanding the strike zone 3 feet. I want to like Melky and think that he is the next Bernie. When he has at bats like that it just makes me wish he would DFA. Girardi has to take some of the blame for leaving CC in so long. He should have taken him out after the 6th. He should have taken him out after the A's got a runner on base, he should have taken him out after the A's had two runners on base, he should have taken him out after the A's made it 7-6.

Yeah that's excusable for 2 seasons tops, but someone needs to tell him he has an option to not swing. I wasn't paying attention to CC's pitch count but he shouldn't be out there for the 6th. I don't exactly have more confidence in Phil Coke, but he'd given up 4-5 earned and 7 hits, and wasn't blowing anyone away. No reason he shouldn't pack it in at that point gratefully and hope for something better next time out.

Melky with a Walk Off 2 Run HomeRun at HomeRun Stadium. This guy is a real head scratcher. Shows alot of promise and alot of shit as well.

Yeah that's was a real rollercoaster of emotions for Melky. Love him, hate him, love him again. I'll excuse any amount of strike outs in a game if the end result is a walk off shot.

Dave Bush of the Brewers has a no hitter so far through 7 innings. He is currently at 96 pitches.

So . . . how about them Yankees?

You tip your cap and move on. Then you go into the corner and get over the feeling of being kicked in the balls. Yankees blowing the bases loaded with no outs and failing to score a run in the 8th or 9th came back to haunt them. The only positives that I can take from the game is that the Yankees should have won the game with their # 5 pitcher and a ton of injuries (Nady, Arod) against a full strength Boston team and their #2 starter.

Cano still looking good, 4 rbi's, got us up 6-0 going into the 5th. If he can be this consistent for a full season he's gonna put up some sick numbers.
