CC and the Yanks look to make it eight straight tonight. Rain could be a factor. Let’s hope it doesn’t mess with a nice winning streak.
Let’s Go Yan-Kees.

love that song, gotta dig the very unusual santana-esque back half of the song …
I’m “almost certain” that a rain delay wouldn’t adversely effect CC the way it obviously does Joba…
I really think the Rolling Stones are an atrocity sometimes but that is a cool song.
just because Girardi doesn’t like for us to wait for a ballgame without anything to talk about …
(from Petey)
Speaking of delays ….
The Astros and Padres are delayed in the top of the 9th inning, due to a small swarm of bees that have congregated in left field.
(no joke)
[5] GIMME 5 BEES FOR A QUARTER!
One of the best albums ever.
But the above tune is from Sticky Fingers, which is actually my favorite Stones album (just ahead of Let It Bleed).
Here’s hoping the Yanks run like Wild Horses over the M’s tonight and make them their Bitch.
anyone gots the haps on the start?
LOVE that song! Mick Taylor and Keef were a great combo, easily the Stones best years..
[8] I was merely reacting to [3], Cliff. I forget to put the [].
Damn, I was really in the mood for a baseball game. What’s the forecast down there?
[12] Rain, as always:
[5] Who/what do you think is behind this?
a. Global warming
b. Climate change
c. Apocalypse
d. Candyman
e. A-Rod
[14]
Michael Jackson
[4] “Girardi said it was because he hit “two rockets” against the Mets the other day with runners on base.”
That’s nothing!
The DPRK “launched” four of those today!
I’m feelin’ all “July Fourthy” already!
Start time:
“20 minutes and counting”…
: )
[14] Better to have swarms of bees, than no bees at all!
: )
[14] Maybe that college basketball coach, the LIU guy? From like the 1930s. Famous guy.
[17] Were there two, or not?
That is the question.
(I’m trying to rack up some tacit ‘bee’ puns.)
Beehave
Ham says 7:40 start
are-bee-eye
Are we not men, we are Beevo
arrrr – bee – aye!
i think i need baseball
[21] Beeautiful.
[24] Beeneathe you.
[19] I saw a lot of blue dragon flies today, a couple of deer, a few rabbits, a hawk, and the remains of a gosling with just the head intact. Does that count?
[28] “Eric the Half-a-Bee” suddenly popped into my head, for some reason…
[28]
Alex Beelth?
[19] “Weather” ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer this…
Could a bee be CC? Eh? EH???
Ham says 7:40 start
I prefer to call him Pete A-Bee
[33]
10 CC …. The Things We Do For Glove …
At least our comments so far have been benign.
goodness you all need to be quiet
[33] Carmine said “one bee,” there are two!
arrrr – bee – aye!
Oh, no! We’ll BEE having none of *that*!
You can wait til International Talk Like A Pirate Day, just like everybody else!
[35] I’m Not in Love with that particular pun.
Hey, baseball! Why didn’t someone tell me?
Isn’t this International Talk Like an Apiologist Day?
man, that ball was stung!
Michael KayBee on the mic
[43]
LOL
Speaking of bees … one of the best fantasy baseball team names ever
Honey Nut Ichiros …
[46] that is a great name. omar little would definitely approve.
Well, being behind isn’t good, but CC looked good.
[14] f) Meteor strike.
[48] yep just thought that. and glad to have you back.
the next 4 games are all 1 o’clock starts.
