Review of this weekend’s games in major league soccer. Possibly a rushed call-up, Bailey threw 45 poor innings for the Reds in 2007, managing a 28/28 K/BB with a 5.76 ERA.This season in two starts, Bailey hasn’t been able to harness his control either: 10 IP, 12 H, 7 BB, 3 K, 7 ER, 3 HR, 6.30 ERA, and this is coming off a so-so performance at AAA Louisville, where he should be dominating: 4.15 ERA, 1.40 WHIP this season.Can Bailey re-gain his form? Let’s hope it doesn’t start today. Boston Red Sox (43-28) Cincinnati Reds (33-37)Josh Beckett (6-4, 4.22) Homer Bailey (0-2, 6.30)1:15 PM EDT | Great American Ballpark (Cincinnati, OH)TV: NESN, TBS RADIO: WRKO 680, SBN 1150 This article is also featured on Fire Brand of the American League. Once (and still arguably is) a top prospect in all of baseball, flamethrowing Homer Bailey has run into some rough patches on his way to being a formidable major-league hurler. This was a game to remember! Now tonight game five starts at 9:00 PM EST, and I predict the ____ will take the Final title.Oops, I didn’t put a team name in, but I don’t want to jinx anything, so I’m not going to say anything. However, I think the final score will be 101-96.. But it took teamwork to do this. Many fans gave up on the Celtics in that game, but many fans stuck with them.
They were down by at least 27 in the first half, and came back to win 97-91. In just about an hour the Celtics will be playing their fifth straight game against the LA Lakers this time for the NBA Finals title and trophy. The Celtics lead this series three games to one, and no team in history has ever come back to win after starting with this record.The Celtics lead the Lakers in titles, 8-2. Now these two teams were the top two contenders from the start of the season. Celtics had a final record of 66-16, while the Lakers went 57-25.Yes! The Celtics had the better record in my opinion, and the better team. In game four, the Celtics didn’t take a lead until the fourth quarter. San Diego will start Randy Wolf (5-4, 3.83 ERA).(Reporter’s note: I was very happy the Yankees won for me on my 21st birthday today:) ). Oswalt gave up seven runs on eight hits, walked four batters, and punched out six.With the series sweep, the Yankees will travel back home to open an interleague series against the San Diego Padres after an off day tomorrow.On Tuesday night, the Yankees will throw Andy Pettitte (6-5, 4.64 ERA). It is unclear right now whether or not Wang will pitch in his next scheduled start and what the extent of his injury is.Oswalt took the loss and is now 5-7 on the campaign. Ross Ohlendorf, Edwar Ramirez, LaTroy Hawkins, and Dan Giese went a combined four innings allowing only one hit and no runs.Wang picked up his eighth win and is now 8-2 on the season. Even though Wang scored safely, he had to leave the game.With Wang’s departure, the Yankee bullpen continued to blank the Houston offense.
Wang, who got on base with a bunt, injured his right foot attempting to score from second base on a Derek Jeter single. Alex Rodriguez clubbed a three run homer, his second in as many days, and Jorge Posada also hit a homer in the inning.Although New York was happy about the run support, they suffered a major setback in the top of the sixth inning. Houston starter Roy Oswalt walked in a run and Robinson Cano followed with a two run single, making the score 3-0.The score held at 3-0 until the sixth inning when the Yankees tacked on a reassuring eight runs. Wang tossed five innings, allowed no runs on six hits, issued no walks, and struck out three.The Yankees’ hit parade, which began in the third inning, marched all game long. In a squadoosh Sunday afternoon, The New York Yankees crushed the Houston Astros 13-0.Yankees’ hurler Chien-Ming Wang was superb.
