I was in Houston for the first two games. That was horrifying watching him round third and blow out his knee. I hope we never have to see that sh*t again. That's why I hate the pitcher batting. Pitchers can't hit/run bases, change the damn rule.

Just saw this on my Twitter from the Yankee beat writer for the Daily News...

"With a win tonight, Kei Igawa will tie the Scranton franchise record with 26 career wins. That's worth $46 million, no?"

:bag:

He was fine getting the first two outs. Then he just fell apart.

It doesn't help that the offense is AWOL.

Wang cant last 3 innings without giving up a boatload of hits and runs.

The guy did suck yesterday. Had he faced an actual lineup, and not a crappy one like the Yankees, he would have not made it out of the 3rd or 4th inning. You are right, someday this guy is going to be a damn good pitcher, but he's not all that special right now, and from what I saw a little wild.

Ignore him, he probably didn't even watch the game so he doesn't have a clue how completely average the guy was. The guy was a walk machine, and got in trouble a lot during this game, the Yankees crappy clutch hitting just got him out of it.

He didn't pitch well. He missed the zone a LOT, and usually missed badly. He got into jams every inning, and the Yankees bailed him out each and every time with groundouts, DP's and strikeouts. Go Yankees!
