Posted by Milo Taibi Categories: Athletes, MLB, Scoreboard
Last night the New York Yankees caught a thrashing at the hands of the Baltimore Orioles, by a score of 12-2. The pace for the game was sent in the first inning when the Birds hit up Yankees starter Mike Mussina for seven runs.
“When you walk out there and don’t feel like you’ve ever been out there before, it really confuses you,” Mussina said. “That’s how I felt. I got out there and I felt like I hadn’t been out there forever, and didn’t really know what I was doing.”

Yankees Demolish Devil Rays In Weekend Series
Posted by Milo Taibi Categories: Athletes, MLB, News
The match-up between the New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Devil Rays this weekend simply wasn’t fair. The overall scoring for the four games gave the Yankees a 49-26 advantage. Shelly Duncan cashed in with three home runs over the series, including two he hit today. The Yankees were toying with the Devil Rays yesterday compared to today’s offensive outburst. Andy Pettitte was superb, even though he didn’t need to be. He went six innings strong, and struck out eight. Joe Torre was stunned with the Yankees intimidating presence today.
“I’ve never seen anything like it,” Torre said. “Even in batting practice you don’t get hits every time you swing the bat.”
Shelly Duncan, who was called up to give the Yankees a power option at the DH couldn’t be happier after his breakout day.
“When you have a big day like this, you can’t feel content,” Said Shelley, the son of St. Louis Cardinals pitching coach Dave Duncan and brother of Red Birds slugger Chris Duncan. “It’s a crazy experience, you kind of get frozen in the moment.”

Rockies win; Beckett suffers first loss
Posted by Brendon Lindsey Categories: Athletes, MLB, Scoreboard
Garrett Atkins and Kaz Matsui both go 3-5 from the plate as the Rockies beat the Red Sox 7-1, giving Josh Beckett his first loss since September 27, 2006. Atkins hit a grand slam in the third inning, which gave the Rockies a 5-0 lead and Atkins his fifth homer on the season; he also had a single and a double.
Last season, Atkins hit .329 with 29 homeruns. So far this year, he’s been struggling, and Rockies fans have been questioning whether or not Atkins was worth playing. So far in June, however, Atkins has had a resurgence, batting .342 (13-for-38) and knocking out two home runs, five doubles, and nine RBIs in 11 games, bringing his season average to .242.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Athletes, Editorial, Front Office, Kudos, NBA, News, NFL, Videocasts
In this edition of the End Score Report, Dan Devone gives his take on the latest news from the world of sports:
- NFL Draft: Publications, networks, etc. spend the entire year crunching the numbers, and most of the time they aren’t right, even on the #1 pick.
- We discuss the draft. JaMarcus Russell should be the #1 draft pick, not Brady Quinn.
- SuperSonics leave Seattle, possibly heading to Las Vegas if NBA betting disappears.
- A-Rod out of his mind and going bananas with the New York Yankees - 14 home runs in a month.
