Joba Chamberlain's Fist Getting Him in Trouble Again
Published 8 days ago by Josh Alper at FanHouse
Filed under: Cleveland, New York, Yankees, Indians, MLB GossipFor a pitcher with 37 innings under his belt, Joba Chamberlain's generated a lot of controversy. There were the "Joba Rules," the way he dealt with the bugs in Cleveland and the feud between his team's owner and general manager. Those all seem temporal, though there's one talking point that won't seem to leave him alone. Chamberlain struck out David Dellucci to end the eighth inning at Yankee Stadium yesterday and then unlelashed his now-familiar fist pump and yell. That Dellucci beat Chamberlain and the Yankees on Tuesday night with a ...

Don't mess with Joba

ajfletcher posted 9 days ago from scottproctorsarm.blogspot.com

After taking Joba Chamberlain deep on Tuesday to give the Indians a 5-3 lead, David Dellucci struck out on a nasty slider to end the eighth inning Thursday afternoon, prompting the pictured reaction. This was Chamberlain's first appearance since that outing, and, for at least today, he didn't show that it bothered him. He didn't walk anyone and three all but three pitches for strikes.

Dellucci Trumps the Midges

It was bound to happen

No matter how good you are, walks will kill you. Joba Chamberlain learned that lesson tonight, as he gave up the go-ahead three-run home run in the eighth inning. The three runs were the first he's allowed at Yankee Stadium in his career. He walked two batters in the ninth inning before allowing the pinch-hit home run to ex-Yankee David Dellucci .

Two days after serving up a fateful meatball to Cleveland’s David Dellucci, Yankee meathead Joba Chamberlain blew the former away to close the 8th inning of New York’s 6-3 win over Cleveland yesterday. After Chamberlain reacted with his customary fist-pumping, Dellucci took exception, the quotes to come taken from the Star-Ledger’s Ed Price : “If he wants to yell ...

Shockingly, it looks like not everyone is as receptive to Joba Chamberlain's exuberance as Frank Thomas was: “That’s what gets him going and that’s what everybody likes to see, but if a hitter was to do something like that they’d probably say it was ‘bush (league)’ and you shouldn’t do it,” Dellucci said. “It’s kind of funny how a pitcher can get away with it.” ..."It’s no disrespect to ...

The Joba Debate Continues

No not that one; the bullpen-starter debate has been tabled. Now the airwaves are being filled with discussions of Joba Chamberlain's yelling, fist-pumping celebration routine. It really came into focus yesterday when Chamberlain struck out David Dellucci to end the 8th inning. The Yankees had a 3-run lead at the time. Perhaps it would have just been quickly forgotten, but Dellucci had hit a ...

Games 34 - Yankees Indians 5, Yankees 3 Record: 17-17 Sure, it was bound to happen sometime, but I never expected David Dellucci to be the guy to shit on Joba Chamberlain's cloak of invincibility. The Yankees lost a tough one last night, 5-3 to the Indians, after Dellucci (a Yankee for all of 21 games in 2003) cranked a pinch-hit three run homer off Joba in the 8th, wasting a damn good start

Up, Out, and Over

Perfection has become expected of Joba Chamberlain . Anything less is shocking. Of course those expectations are too high, but that's what happens when you have a young, hard throwing pitcher that dominates hitter. Last night though it was Chamberlain who got dominated when David Dellucci turned on a 96-mph fastball and put it into the right field seats for a game winning 3-run home run. The ...

Cliff Lee (5-0, 0.96) vs. Chien Ming Wang (6-0, 3.00) tonight. ESPN. Hopefully the Yanks bounce back from last night’s unexpected loss. You knew that Joba wouldn’t have an ERA under 1.00 forever. Still, it was stunning when Dellucci pulled on (and ripped off) the Superman cape. Good points were made in various places about the rookie shaking off the veteran catcher. Still, Joba ...

The ending of last night's Yankees game was such a downer. Watching Joba give up a 3-run pinch hit HR to David Dellucci was painful. I was laying on the couch and I had one of my son's little plastic toys in my hand. As soon as I saw Dellucci make contact with the ball, I threw the toy on the ground as I instantly knew the ball was gone. I've come to expect that when the Yankees take a lead ...

Joba and Indians Don't Mix

Here's some advice if you want to beat Joba Chamberlain, make sure he's pitching against the Cleveland Indians. Last fall it was the insects and Indians that did young Joba in, last night they insects didn't show, but that didn't slow the tribe down. Chamberlain gave up the first runs he's ever surrendered at Yankee stadium when Cleveland pinch hitter David Dellucci hit 3 run homer off Joba ...

With two outs in the top of the eighth inning one swing from David Dellucci shattered everyone’s view of Joba Chamberlain. Or so the Germans would have us believe.

After walking Sizemore to lead off the ...

Joba's not perfect

Posted 11 days ago on Blogging the Bombers - NY Daily News Blogs

There was some stunned disbelief in the crowd when Joba Chamberlain served up a three-run home run to David Dellucci in the eighth inning tonight, costing the Yankees a game. Here’s my question: Why? Sure, Joba has been virtually unhittable during the first 36 innings of his big-league career, but let’s not forget he’s still a 22-year-old rookie. We’ve watched ...

He walked two batters in the 8th and then let up a homer to David Dellucci. The home run marks only the second Joba has allowed in over 37 innings pitched so far in his big league career. He ended up taking the loss, which is his second. It was bound ...

Joba Found Wanting

Posted 11 days ago on Depressed Fan

If the Yanks get the ball to Joba with a one-run lead in the eighth inning you can pretty much bank on a win about 95% of the time. The kid is that good. Unfortunately, tonight's game fell in that other 5%. Chamberlain walked the leadoff man, which is always playing with fire, then pitched around Peralta, the Tribe's biggest threat. That brought David Dellucci off the bench to pinch hit with ...
