He was a stopper. He stopped the mediocrity - all out bullsh*t that we had been seeing from our starters. It might start up again tomorrow, but Kevin did his part. You a-holes better hop back on that bandwagon. Kiss this man's ass. |

If you didn't see the game, it was 8 innings, 0 runs, 7 strikeouts. |

I've always defending Brown, especially when YF03 kept saying he sucked. :serious: If this guy is healthy, watch out. :rock: |

I wonder what YF03 will bitch about today? :think: He may not even show up today, since the Yankees won and Brown pitched lights out. |

The boxscore indicated he did, but that doesn't give me a real feel for how he looked. There could have been great plays in the field to bail him out, he could have dominated on his own, there are several possibilties. |

I missed the game because I was at work, but nothing to bitch about today. :peace: Brown pitched well. If he's healthy he's awesome, I've said that before. Right now it's him and Duque who are the only two starters I'd trust in a big game. Hopefully they stay healthy the rest of the way. |

Great plays in the field? You know what I'm thinking and I know what you'll say (if you bother to reply). |

Our defense has been mediocre and we're among the leaders in errors (made 2 more yesterday). Our outfield defense has been terrible and its rare that one of them makes a great play to bail out a pitcher. Jeter has been steady at SS, A-Rod has been spectacular at times at 3B, our 2B have made some nice plays, Olerud is a Gold Glover (stole it from Mientkiewicz'), but overall, we don't have much range and we make more errors than you like to see. |

OK, but maybe you missed the point on why I asked for more of a feel for the game. I was at work all day, in and out of meetings, including a 2 hour lunch meeting at a restaurant, and therefore had NO FEEL for the game whatsoever (no radio, no TV, no Internet, no updates from anyone). I logged on, saw people saying he pitched like an ace, and hadn't even checked the boxscore yet. I don't give a sh*t if you don't think the D has been good this year. That doesn't mean their fielders can't make a great play to help dictate the way the starting pitcher performs. Wilson didn't make a great play 2 games ago? Jeter didn't make a great play into the stands against Boston? Someday when you're all grown up and have a full-time job with perhaps a lot of overtime, you will understand what it's like to not have any idea what is going on in a few games a year. People on these boards analyze and discuss every single little thing in every single game. I wanted some details on how he pitched, thought it I asked I would get a few responses, and got nothing back. Sorry for thinking some of you guys would be able to help me get a feel for the game. It's ok, I read up on it later on after work, and watched part of it on Encore. I have my feel now. |

There are usually some day games in April. School forces me to miss those. And I'm 19 in 5 weeks. I'm a man. :yes: You first said that you assumed he pitched well. I assumed that you didn't see the game and I posted the "8 IP, 0 R, 7 K". You then said that you didn't have a feel because you didn't see it and it was possible that the fielders made some great plays to save him. That didn't happen and 1/2 jokingly, I said "great defensive plays?" I know that they've made some spectacular plays -- was the Enrique play on Web Gems? -- but overall, we're not a good fielding team. They've cost pitchers a lot with their screw-ups in the field. Bernie was in center. I know what you mean and I understand what you're criticizing, but you have to learn to not take everything I say too seriously. I know that even the 2002 Mets made some great plays to bail pitchers out sometimes. As I said, I was 1/2 joking. But I'm glad you got your "feel". |
