Expos4Ever Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Even the blind find an acorn every once in awhile Y4L wins rare game in dramatic fashion It started out as a typical Yankee4Life online baseball game. This time the lucky recipient was going to be Cartersyard. And he got things going right away with a two run home run by Juan Encarnacion off of Yankee starter Mike Mussina. The Y4L lead Yankees fought back to tie it at 2-2 but once again, a hit that should not have been a hit almost proved fatal for them. A clutch single by the Marlins under Derek Jeter's glove gave them a 3-2 lead late in the game. And the Yankees were doing nothing against Josh Beckett. It looked as if another fine pitching performance by a Y4L pitcher was going to go to waste. Mussina pitched seven strong innings and also went 2 for 2 at the plate with a RBI double that tied the game at 2-2. Tony Womack lead off the Yankee ninth with a clean single to center. Alex Rodriguez then hit a two run home run to give the Yankees a 4-3 lead. After Gary Sheffield got aboard, Hideki Matsui hit an opposite field two run home run to extend the Yankee lead to 6 - 3. Mariano Rivera came on in the ninth inning and set the Marlins down in order to save the game for Tanyon Sturtze, who pitched a scoreless eighth inning. And I thought the way the Yankees won today was bizzare. :roll: Guess you are having a good day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After Gary Sheffield got aboard, Hideki Matsui hit an opposite field two run home run to extend the Yankee lead to 6 - 3. I can confirm it's all true. It's a sad day today. The low-light for me though did not come in the ninth, it was earlier when Mike Mussina hit a RBI double off the wall in left field. That was unbelievable. Great game all around, however, I will want a rematch one day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yankee4Life Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 Great game all around, however, I will want a rematch one day! You can bank on that. You are one tough player.

Yankee4Life Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 Y4L plays doubleheader and splits a pair Today, I had two games online and even though I split the games, I am beginning to see some improvement. In the first game, I played Trues and he won 3 - 0 at Wrigley Field over my Yankees. An opposite field double that hit near the left field line by Todd Walker did me in this game. Carlos Zambrano pitched well for the Cubs and I now sport this avatar thanks to Trues until Friday afternoon. Game two saw me play against MarkbtheYankee. Since we are both Yankee fans, one of us had to be someone else. And it was me because in the last game we played, Mark won it. So I used the NL Champion Cardinals. Who was I supposed to use, the Red Sox? Get real. And it was another tough one, this time I won against Mark in four tries. The Cards beat his Yankees 2 - 1. What is noteable about this game is that Mark was the host in this game and we had no lag. In case you don't know, Mark lives in Glasgow, Scotland. So don't be afraid to play him online. He's good. Here's a picture of Scotland. You can get there by driving to New York and either taking a plane or getting on a ship that's going east. Or, just hook up with him on Direct IP. He's the other Yankee fan you will run into around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carter Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 You know Mark and Y4L, I smell something fishy. All these Yankee logos have got me thinking. Y4L is a hustler. He just came up with this avatar game to make us all Yanks fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carter Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 Well, MarkB and Five who's going to step up and beat me next? Y4L taught me a lesson yesterday and today, Trues handed me another loss (4-1). No worries though, both were great games. These guys play with class and I will be looking for rematches in the near future. However, now I must sleep. Good night.

emeyekayiee Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 anybody up for a test match i had some trouble connecting to other players want to see if i can now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big shmooz Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 This idea sounds exciting since I only play either online or hotseat. I never play against the computer. Therefore I would love to play people. Preferably starting tomorrow night. Anybody up for a challange? But I use ultimate rosters 2.35 plus a datafile. So the person has to agree to do this also, otherwise the game will crash. If anybody wants a game like that, PM me. & we can exchange info & play a game. One more thing, only high speed connections.
