Johan Santana has been absolutely filthy so far tonight. He just struck out 5 of the first 6 Red Sox he faced.

 

now 7 K's through 3 innings.

He's DOMINATING.

 

I suggest you all tune in - He's putting on a show so far - 11k through 5.

Jason Veritek for the Sox and Michael Cuddyer for the Twins have hit solo blasts in the 7th. Great battle here between Schilling and Santana.

A-Rod's first inning tonight:

 

First of all, regardless of his stats, he's been very poor in clutch situations recently. Yankee fans are booing him every game.

 

First batter of the game tonight: routine pop-up - an 8-year old could have caught it with no problem. A-Rod has it clank off his glove, it ricochets off of three body parts, and he stumbles to his left to finally catch it.

 

Second batter of the game: ground ball to his right - A-Rod whiffs - double down the line.

 

First at-bat: 1st and 3rd, 1 out. Paul Byrd is pitching. Byrd blows three 87-MPH fatballs right by him. Even his family was booing him after that.
