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 in the 8th, paving the way for a 5-3 Indians win.
Look, it's baseball, they play 162 games, these things are going to happen, but predictably, it's a pretty big story in NY. Let's see what some of the area columnists are saying, and make some snarky remarks:
- Kevin Kernan of the NY Post says, Now We'll See if He Can Rebound (call me crazy but it still seems to be a safe bet).
- While over at the NY Daily News, John Harper says Joba Threw Everyone a Curve (a few less curves a few more heaters would help).
- Bob Klapisch of the Bergan Record says There's a Silver Lining in Joba's Meltdown (apparently giving up one HR qualifies as a meltdown these days).
