Can we have a reasonably paced game tonight, not a 4 hour affair?

[1] Not at this rate. Bleh!

Huzzah, Lil G! Good thing he didn't break his anke on the first line drive. Yikes.

Gritner!

damn!

What is your new puppy's name just fair? Sounds like a handful :)

O'neill just mentioned something I have wondered about in some of our recent conversations about uzr - how does the glove hand impact your uzr? I don't think there is anyway a right-handed fielder gets to that ball gardner got.

[6] He IS good and terrible. The shelter named him Yeller. He didn't know it anyway so we just decided to stick with it. I read Ol Yeller to my class every year so take that for what it's worth. Fortunately for him there's not much hydrophobia in the area and I don't own a gun. Thanks for asking. : )

[8] haha - that's cool. glad he is settling in with you guys.

8) If you send a picture I'll post it. Go Yeller!

Wow, the Rangers are crusing the Red Sox 6-0 after one and a half.

[11] er, crushing

[10] You're a trip, AB. I don't have a good one yet, but I'll work on it. Snapped one of him standing on the kitchen table the 2 days ago but his face was looking the other way. lol...
Hot damn. Hang a week of laundry on that sucker!

Gritner is doing it all tonight.

Wow, an actual reversal?

Settle down, dickhead. Make a good throw next time.

Nova's settling down.

13) Heck Yah. The Banter needs mascots. Wait for a good shot and then send it over.

Works both ways, blue. Oy!

[18] Just gotta be better than that Yankees mascot. Man the 1980s were not good to the organization.
Robbie!

Morrow deserves a hefty fine for making Robinson look so silly tonight. Alas, he comes through anyway. Yes!

Robinson Cano is a *great* hitter.

Look up "great fucking hitter" in the dictionary and you'll see this man's picture.

Sweet Jesus.

Jones turning back time.

10-0 Texas.

0-10 Tex?

Elvis just left the building in Boston, 10-0 Rangers.
How the Bombers looking?

Whatever happens next, I support that walk.

[25] Tight, 3-2 game Yankees up, but 2 on, 2 out for the Jays.

Curtis - fuck UZR.

Morrow was pretty nasty tonight. Damn good thing Brett ran into one.

Nova's dropping hooks like a drunk fisherman.

[30] Classic line. Let's use it many more times.
Why not Nova for the eighth?

Let's Go Grandy.

Do you walk Cano now with runners on second and third?

Whatchyou looking at, Curtis?

I guess so.

C'mon, Swish. After last night you're due for some goodness.

No place to put him...

Start the merry go round.

Crud.

Shite...at least the Sox are losing, 10-0.

I don't really liked taking Nova out.

Nice job by Sori, down 2-0 to strike out the lead off hitter.

I just want to say again that I got in on the ground floor with Nova. The ground floor!!

Yikes. I was afraid they didn't get any outs.

And I don't like teix not at first there.

Nuney!

Happy Friday Night!

What a play by Cano! On those low balls, nobody can do what he does.

And Tex is missed.

oops. Embarrassed!
Just Got in and did not realize that Nunez was on second. Blush.

And I guess sometimes, someone can do what Cano deos.

Is Mo time?

How'd that feel, Big Ears?

Sit down sucker!

Alone in first place!

Alone in first place!

Phew.
All Rise.
Quiet night at the BB.

Oh yeah! 15 wins for Nova.
Chance at 18.

Yankees for the first time this year are 30 wins over .500

Nova is a cool operator out there, and nice to see Gardner just about single-handedly get this game won in context of Nova's performance.

Feeling much less nervous now about the post season. However, that changes day to day.

As a Nunez fan, let me reiterate what a sick play that was. That was tremendous. Kid's got a lot of talent.

Oh, and may I mention just *how* much better Mo looked tonight?

He missed with the last pitch to Bautista, but generally, his command was completely different than it was last night.

Mo needs 6 saves to have the career saves record. With 26 games left, ya think he'll get the chance to do it?

Almost don't want him to do it this season, so he has another reason to come back next year.

Nova being interviewed by Kim. For a guy who does not a lot of English, he makes good points and knows how to be succinct. I bet in Spanish, this guy is muy sophisticato.

[52] Nice! I had the SAME thought (see the recap)
