fucking Alex Gordon, breaking up Masterson's no-no

[das11209]

Good job Lugo - sacrifice fly to get Youk home.

[Beaneater]

In other news - Orioles just dropped 7 on the Yanks in the 1st inning. Only 1 run was earned -- thanks Jeter!

[The Dustball]

The Master looks good so far tonight. 55 pitches through 4 innings.
