Sweep sets up Yankees' run at postseason

Sweep sets up Yankees' run at postseason By AP

NEW YORK -- With drama and flair, the New York Yankees completed another August sweep of the Boston Red Sox and moved into prime position for a September playoff run.

There was a week's worth of highlights during the Yankees' 5-0 victory yesterday: a no-hit bid by Chien-Ming Wang into the seventh inning, a pair of big home runs by Robinson Cano off Curt Schilling, a disputed play involving Alex Rodriguez that led to the ejection of Boston manager Terry Francona.

And then in the ninth, Yankees rookie sensation Joba Chamberlain was tossed following a pair of pitches over Kevin Youkilis' head.

It's not even Labor Day, and already there was late-season passion between these old foes.

"If that young man is trying to get our attention, he did a very good job," Francona said.

Edwar Ramirez, another rookie, completed a two-hitter and the Yankees' first shutout of Boston since Sept. 11, 2005.

Last year, the Yankees swept a five-game series at Boston from Aug. 18-21, opening a 6 1/2 -game lead in the AL East.

It's so different this season. The Yankees, who outscored the Red Sox 14-6 in the three games and outhit them 30-13, closed within five games of the division leaders and put themselves in position to possibly end the day in the wild-card lead. New York, which began the day one percentage point behind Seattle, had not finished a day in playoff position since April 10, when the Yankees were 4-3.

Chamberlain's ejection left bad feelings all around. Throwing 98-99 m.p.h., he pumped a pitch over Youkilis' head with one out in the ninth. The next pitch went to nearly the same spot, and Youkilis stared as plate umpire Angel Hernandez ejected the pitcher.

Chamberlain was shocked, saying both pitches slipped.

Youkilis was angry.

"I didn't see any other pitches going that far out of the strike zone," he said.

"Who knows what it really meant?"

EZRyder Cup - SATURDAY September 8, Wardsville - Proposed Captains & Teams

SATURDAY September 8, Wardsville – 11 AM 519-693-4921 1948 Longwoods Rd Wardsville, ON

http://www.wardsvillegolfclub.ca

 

 

I have confirmed THREE tee times for 12 players, with carts.

 

Steve will step aside and will be joining us at Dean’s after his work tourney since nobody responded to say they had ( in the immortal words of Lee Smithson) :

 

“... to flea bath their dog that morning, spousal objections(objections from your spouse not objections about your spouse or any others), Forgot they were flying to Paris that day, forgot that Sunday is the day after Saturday or day before Monday therefore not a good day to be engaging in this sort of activity???”

 

 

We start at 11, breakfast can be available, Rob I assume you’d like to call them at 519-693-4921 to let them know we’re coming and make sure they can do 2 eggs any-style, and probably ask about the meatloaf too! And reacquaint yourself with the owners kids too of course.

 

I nominate Dan and Dean as respective captains of the Dungarees and Suits respectively, due to their obviously enthusiastic desire to be identified with each group. Yeas, nays, carried.

Re: EZRyderCup Update - WARDSVILLE IT IS!!

Back from the wilderness. Wardsville is quaint and acceptable. Golfed there twice for a couple of tournaments. The owner's kids are acquaintences of ours.

I will cancel Gentleman's Creek.

RE: EZRyderCup Update - WARDSVILLE IT IS!!

If my memory is correct, Hard hats recommended on a few of the holes on the original 9. If you’ve played certain parts of River Road, you’ll know what I mean. Half hour approx depending on where the starting point in London is. We might get Slippery to play if we ask.

RE: EZRyderCup Update - WARDSVILLE IT IS!!

I suggest we also play (I’m assuming the name…) Simon for a total of 27 holes. What does everyone else think?

Patrick E. Uzan, B.A., C.A., T.E.P.

EZRyderCup Update - WARDSVILLE IT IS!!

Hello gents,

Tee times starting at 11 AM, $42 with carts, if we want to play 27, we pay $4 per man for extra cart time. See http://www.wardsvillegolfclub.ca/

We’re playing ‘Alvin’ (original 9) and ‘Theodore’ (newest 9) http://www.wardsvillegolfclub.ca/pics.htm

I imagine we can get breakfast. I’ll have 2 eggs, any style.

How long does it take to get there Mike and/or Bob?

Darryl is now choosing baseball in Pittsburgh over us. Imagine!

That leaves us with 13 currently. Step-hen has an alternative for the day, although he’d rather golf with us than the finest people on earth, of course.

CAN EVERYBODY MAKE SURE THEY’RE ABLE TO PLAY. IF WE HAVE 12 WITHOUT STEVE, I THINK HE’D BE HAPPY TO PLAY HIS OTHER THINGY. 12 IS A GOOD NUMBER, EVEN NUMBER OF MATCHES.

DON’T HESITATE, CHECK NOW!

REALLY, CHECK NOW!!
