GAME 119: Yankees vs. Gwinnett Braves

Randall Delgado rhp (1-0, 0.00)

Weather: Beautiful.

In the standings: The Yankees are in third place, 4.5 games behind first-place Pawtucket in the IL North standings. They’re 4 games behind Wild Card-leading Lehigh Valley.

Lehigh Valley was shut out today in Norfolk. Pawtucket faces Charlotte tonight. Tony Pena Jr. pitches for the Red Sox against former Brewers lefty Doug Davis.

Streak: The Yankees haven’t played well on this homestand. In the 11 games so far, they’re 5-6. Selection for Perfection: Call me insane, because he has been in such a funk lately, but I think Greg Golson is close to breaking out. Let’s go with Golson today.

UPDATE, 7:02: I’d like to thank the guys back in the office for calling me tonight, expressing their shock that I couldn’t work last night after my emergency wisdom tooth extraction. It really made me feel like I was still part of the team. UPDATE, 7:13: Of course, no doubt sensing my sarcasm, Pendleton pitches around the leadoff walk. It helped that he picked off Matt Young, who broke for second after Lance came to a long set.

UPDATE, 7:24: Brandon Hicks hits one off the scoreboard. That kid has been impressive in this series, and that’s the game’s first hit. The Braves lead early, 1-0.

Fans vastly underrate the job a pitcher does holding baserunners on, but Pendleton is a guy who really does a good job. Sometimes, a good, long pause works better than a slide step when it comes to getting runners off-balance. UPDATE, 7:35: This is just based on two innings, but Delgado looks like he’s got really good stuff. The Yanks have had some good swings on him, but they’ve got just one hit — a double by Vazquez down the left field line in the second. Delgado has struck out Montero, Laird and Parraz.

UPDATE, 7:53: I’m hoping Mauro Gomez fouls out. I’ve never seen three foul outs in the same inning.

UPDATE, 7:57: Gomez singled, but it was Brandon Hicks who ruined my dream. He grounded into a fielder’s choice.

Situated in North Walsham Railway Station Yard, the Norfolk Motorcycle Museum is a unique and wonderfully authentic display of motorcycle history dating back over the past 100 years.

The museum is family run by enthusiasts whose passion for and knowledge on the subject of motorcycles is immediately clear.

Inside, the collection includes over 100 motorcycles, dating from the 1900s to the 1980s, with examples covering almost every significant part of motorcycle history. There are also scooters, mortised choppers, pushbikes and all manner of motor biking accessories and memorabilia. There is also a display of early Dinky and other die cast toys dating from the mid-1940s.

Offering a fascinating visual (multi-sensory in fact – the heady and somewhat addictive fragrance of leathers and engine oil is all around you) journey through the history of the Motorbike, Norfolk Motorcycle Museum is a must for anyone with an interest in these impressive and often beautiful machines.

Alongside the exhibits you will see bona fide restoration work going on. The museum undertakes private restoration work, supplying both original and replica spare parts from wheels to forks for all makes of early motorbike.
