That’s 4 solid hits off CC because there is no movement on his fastball.

Sabathia at 21 pitches after 1. Should have been a lot more.

I always wanted to see pitcher Mike Krukow do a cereal commercial:

Yup, I have great faith in him. Schilling and Dice K, not so much.

The Dane Cook promos would be less irritating if he wasn't given so much face time.

Beckett has one more pitch through 2 than Sabathia through 1.

Looks like this game could reach 9 innings real fast at the way Beckett and Sabathia are working.
