Wang & Co. Shut Down Mariners
Published 5/3/2008 by Mike at Green Pinstripes
A few more games like this and everything is gonna be allllllllright. Chien-Ming Wang was fabulous, Melky Cabrera drove in two and the trio of Kyle Farnsworth, Joba Chamberlain and Mariano Rivera sealed the deal as the Yanks vanquished Seattle 5-1 on a raw, blustery night at Yankee Stadium.  It was a nip-and-tuck affair through seven and could have been closer if M's starter Erik Bedard received any help from his defense and bullpen.  The Bombers scored three runs in the first three innings thanks in large part to four Mariner errors and Morgan Ensberg and Jose Molina touched up the Seattle pen for two runs in the eighth to help move Wang to a perfect 6-0 on the ...

According to the Post 's Joel Sherman , Phil Hughes has been having a tough time seeing at night in Yankee Stadium. Hughes crossed-up catcher Chris Stewart a few times last night, and later admitted that he had trouble seeing the signs. Apparently Hughes says there is a strong glare from the lights at Yankee Stadium at night and may wear neon glasses to prevent the glare from affecting him. ...
Phil Hughes Is Rick Vaughn

Posted 4/30/2008 on YankeesRedSox.com

Thanks to Mitchell for pointing out that Phil Hughes can't see .  Reading the story immediately made me think of the movie "Major League".  Vaughn, played by Charlie Sheen, is a top rookie pitcher, but his blurry vision makes him wild.  He gets fitted for glasses and goes on to dominate. If you think about it, the Yankees have a lot of similarities with that movie. ...
