Nick Swisher and the New York Yankees won their 13th walk-off game of 2009 on Tuesday night. Of course, with the walk-off win, there is walk-off pie. And when there is walk-off pie, BigLeagueScrew is on it like white on rice. The proud recipient of AJ Burnett’s pie job this day was Nick Swisher. The zany first year Yankee has made an indelible impression on teammates and fans thus far, and I know I’ve been waiting all year for Swish to get his pie. The winning shot was Swisher’s 2nd Home Run of the game, and 26th overall on the year. I also wanted to take this opportunity to point out how incredible Nick Swisher has hit on the road this season. Check out his splits below (tonight’s stats not included).
| G | AB | R | H | 2B | 3B | HR | RBI | BB | K | SB | CS | AVG | OBP | SLG | OPS | |||
| Home | 62 | 180 | 25 | 37 | 10 | 0 | 3 | 20 | 50 | 50 | 0 | 0 | .206 | .381 | .311 | .692 | ||
| Away | 68 | 250 | 47 | 71 | 19 | 1 | 21 | 55 | 36 | 62 | 0 | 0 | .284 | .370 | .620 | .990 |
Swish magically turns into Babe Ruth when he puts on the road grays. Its a tad surprising when you consider all the commotion regarding NYS as a hitters haven, but hey, someone’s gotta hit on the road. Swish, congrats on almost tying your season total of HRs at home in one game. Check out our great shots of the pieing after the jump.
"How does it taste, motherf*cker?"
