B&C Morning Show: Phil Hughes Battles A Moth (And Loses), A.J. Burnett Talks And Talks
With A.J. Burnett starting the series finale in Boston tonight, many Yankees fans looked at last night's game as a must-win.'
Well, they can't be too pleased today as the Bombers fell to the Red Sox 9-5.
Jerry began his update with John Sterling's call of Jacoby Ellsbury's 6th-inning, tie-breaking home run. Then we heard all about how a moth derailed Phil Hughes last night and how important Burnett thinks pitching really is.
We also heard from the Captain, Derek Jeter, and the man they call 'Big Papi' David Ortiz, who joined Ellsbury and Jason Varitek in going deep last night.
The Mets saw Jason Bay snap another prolonged slump by going 3-4 with an RBI, in the 'Not So Amazins' 3-2 win over the Marlins.
Afterward, Terry Collins attempted to express himself through the use of the spoken word, which sounds great in theory and I'll just leave it at that.
