Allow me to introduce myself...

Hi, my name is Sige. Since I'm the older sib and a CAT, I get to post first. Zoe is an okay dog as long as she doesn't crowd me. My folks say I present a striking image with my one blue eye and my one green eye.

Here's Zoe!

Hi, I'm Zoe. My brother Sige says dogs always come after cats so I have to post after him. He used to punch me a lot when I was a little pup, but he's okay with me now. My folks give me great treats.

Not the smartest baserunning plays by Posada and Cano

Okay, so Mom has never heard Dad say he was glad the Yankees ended the inning without scoring any more.

Bad baserunning move #1: Jorge Posada gets fooled on Torii Hunter's fake when Robinson Cano hits it to the centerfield wall. So instead of going one third and seeing that the ball was hit really deep, he tags up and takes third. He should have scored easily on that play.

Bad baserunning move #2: Cano not standing on third base when Posada comes back in a run down. Neither of them were standing on third. Mike Napoli tags both of them out, but Tim McClelland--the ump who called Nick Swisher out on the appeal--blows another call by calling Posada out, but Cano safe. After that Melky Cabrera grounds out to end the inning. The Yankees did not deserve to score another run on that play, and Dad is glad nothing else came of that blown call.
