Not Sharp

Brown gets the first batter in the inning, but Millar gets another single on a hard-hit ball. Mueller gets ahead 3-0, then draws a 3-1 walk. Vazquez is up in the bullpen. They're not going to wait for Brown to blow up.

Update: Brown walks Cabrera to load the bases with 1 out. That's just terrible, and Vazquez is coming into the game. The Red Sox have a chance to win this game here in the 2nd inning.

Update: Can't you just see Vazquez allowing a grand slam here?

Update: I really did write the above before Damon hit the homer. Unbelievable. The Red Sox are up 6-0. And in the 2nd innings, things look very bleak for the Yankees.

What's the over/under for Steinbrenner charging into the dugout and firing Torre on the spot sometime during this game?

Lowe's pretty good at keeping the ball in the park, so you figure if he can just avoid the walks........ I won't jinx it.

Lisa, I'm now officially rooting for the Astros. It looks like Lidge can keep Ortiz down (but walk the guy if you can.)
