Does anyone else think that Brian Fuentes just wants to go on vacation already? The dude just loves to give away the game. He tried again in game 5 after the Angels clawed their way back to a lead in the 7th inning only to have him almost cough it up with an intentional walk, an unintentional walk, and a hit batter. But Fuentes' attempt at sabotage was unsuccessful, to the teams travel back to New York for games 6 and, if necessary, 7.
Andy Pettitte will start for the Yankees. Pettitte pitched game three in Anaheim on Monday, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits in 6.1 innings. He allowed HRs to Vlad Guerrero and Howie Kendrick. Pettitte has historically had trouble with Guerrero so that's a matchup to keep an eye on.
Going for the Angels is Joe Saunders, which, if I were an Angels fan, might concern me. Saunders last pitched on Saturday in the marathon game that the Yankees ended up winning in the 13th inning. He pitched well, allowing just 2 runs on 6 hits in 7 innings, with a home run to Derek Jeter. Saunders gave up 29 home runs in the regular season, which was 2nd in the AL to you-know-who. Between the Yankees power and homer friendly Yankee Stadium, if Saunders loses it the game could be over relatively quickly.

On the replay
You can see he leads with a raised forearm, and his elbow is out, aimed right at Aybar’s cup. Good thing he shifted slightly to the side.

I saw no problem with the location of his slide. If you can reach the base it’s fine. If he tried to elbow him in the balls then it’s an issue.

if you can reach the base it's fine
but he couldn’t have. because he was leaning the other way.
It’s fine to hard slide into second. it’s not fine to aim for the fielder with complete disregard for where the base is.

seriously, what the fuck
are you rewriting the rulebook? you’re not just “allowed to go for the fielder”, not in the rules, and not in the “unwritten” rules, either. YOU HAVE TO GO FOR THE BAG. in the process of going for the bag, you can try to take out the fielder, but if you ignore the bag, you’re cheating. the guys on the bench would say so as well.

Sorry
But did they call him for interference?
If you don’t think that going for the fielder SHOULD be part of the game that’s one thing, but if you think that it’s not currently part of the game I don’t know what to tell you because it is. And if they aren’t going to call it interference I see no problem with it. As long as you’re not spiking him or going in standing up I have no problems with it.
by O'sFan21 on Oct 25, 2009 10:43 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
they never call it
because 95% of guys in baseball slide in a good sportsmanship way—going for the bag, trying to take out the fielder in the process.
two or three times a season you see an asshole slide like that one. it never gets called, but it always gets commented on. and in this case, the announcers commented on it as well.

Ummmm
I’m going to have to disagree on that one – I think it’s REALLY common to slide 3-4 feet out of the baseline to go after the fielder. I’ve never heard anybody complain about it actually unless they spike them or put their arms up or are ABSURDLY far out of the baseline.

Yup.
Definitely disagree. In highschool you’re not allowed to slide through the base so it didn’t happen at all there, but once I got to college we were taught to slide as far as you can away from the base as long as you could reach back with your hand and grab it (which Arod probably should have done). All the other teams we played did it the exact same way and as long as the spikes were low nobody ever had a problem.

if Rodriguez is reaching for the bag, I have zero issues with that play.
Problem is, he clearly wasn’t.

So your issue is not with where he is it’s that he didn’t reach back for the base?
Remember that the basepath is MUCH wider than the base, so if he’s already out why not use the whole basepath to disrupt the play?

no, it's both
it’s about intent.
you have to intend to touch the bag. you have to be able to plausibly say, “i was going for the bag, but my momentum took me into the fielder”.
there’s no way he’d going for the bag in any way on that play, he’s ALL going for the fielder, at the expense of going for the bag, and that’s my objection.

It's not just in the series.
You don’t get called for interference for going after the fielder and not sliding straight through the bag. The rule of thumb is as long as you can reach the bag it’s cool. Just the way it is.

You can never overestimate
A-Rod’s ability to be an asshole in any given situation.

Good ol' A-Rod
Trying to elbow Aybar in the nads to break up the DP.
Asshole

Oh please
Without condemning or condoning A-Rod’s play, that was NOTHING compared to the way Madlock took out Fernandez during the ’87 pennant race.
You can't fix stupid. Stupid is forever.

I think the Orioles should trade for Willy Aybar
It’d give the writers something to write about when we play the Angels.
