I'm stuck with the Indians broadcast team.

2 Mattpat11   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:12 pm

That ball certainly carried

3 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:20 pm

[1] Yeah, me too.

4 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:22 pm

Jays are already beating the daylights out of Felix Dubront.

5 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:27 pm

Missed it by thismuch.

6 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:28 pm

A single! Inches from a HR.

7 Sliced Bread   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:28 pm

(1-3) So far you missed a 10 minute discussion between Kay and Oneill on "the Yankees hit too many home runs" meme.
Damn we almost had another one too many there.

8 mhoward120   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:28 pm

Hope we didn't just lose 2 runs

9 mhoward120   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:29 pm

Nope

10 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:29 pm

Hit with RISP! Two runs!

11 Sliced Bread   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:29 pm

Holy shit a 2 run double!

12 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:29 pm

Sigh.
Mancrush.

Even if he is kind of a dope. (Actually trying for third wasn't crazy.)

13 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:30 pm

[7] Funny enough, that's exactly what the Indians team is talking about. They're kind of boring.

14 Sliced Bread   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:30 pm

The last Yankee to hit a 2 run double was Mike Stanley it seems.

15 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:31 pm

[7] Yeah, I guess we can probably do without that.
Thank god Teix didn't homer -- that would have been a rally-killer! As opposed to Rob making an out at third base.

16 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:32 pm

Ha! I was in the wrong thread!

Great ropes by both Teix and Rob but Robbie really needs to run out of the box and not stand there admiring his handiwork.

17 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:33 pm

The Blue Jays take the field in the first inning with a 4-0 lead.

18 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:35 pm

Damn, Rob is intent on making up for yesterday, huh?

19 Mattpat11   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:35 pm

Missed the scoring. What happened?

20 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:39 pm

[19] Jetes out on 9 pitches. Curtis walked on 10 pitches. Pitcher getting antsy. Teix ripped a liner off the top of the wall so hard he only got a single. Then Rob crushed a double scoring both but caught trying to take third on the throw home.

35 pitches.

21 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:40 pm

The Indians announcers claim that Cleveland was in on the bidding for Youkalis. Odd. They weren't willing to offer more than, well, nothing? They wouldn't take on more than 15% of the salary? How interested were they?? The announcers wish they'd got Youk.

22 Sliced Bread   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:45 pm

(20) nice job, RI. Also of note, the Indians deployed an extreme shift on Grandy. 3b playing straight up the middle. And the official ruling on the Yankees rally is now 2 solo shots, so correct yor score cards accordingly.

23 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:46 pm

Nice hop

24 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:48 pm

See ya!

25 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:48 pm

Oh my god.
Dewayne Wise???

26 Mattpat11   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:48 pm

OOF.

That went out in a hurry

27 mhoward120   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:48 pm

Whatta Wiseguy!

28 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:49 pm

Wow, when you see the replay of the pitch it's no longer unbelievable that Wise hit it out.

29 Sliced Bread   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:49 pm

Boo too many home runs! Boo! We're doomed!

30 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:51 pm

[29] No, it means we're allowed to win now!

31 Mattpat11   ~  Jun 25, 2012 6:58 pm

Jetes can still do that

32 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:04 pm

i'm home and watching the espn2 feed.

AC was out at the studio today. NOT fun!!! tomorrow at the school, the AC will be like the tundra. can't win.

but the yanks homered, so they can!

33 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:06 pm

BOOM!

34 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:06 pm

Scary.

35 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:06 pm

Robbie can do that.

36 mhoward120   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:07 pm

O'Neill with the coolest call of the year

37 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:07 pm

what a beautiful swing. sweet and quiet.

38 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:08 pm

[37] Like a clarinet.

39 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:09 pm

Pop.

40 Mattpat11   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:09 pm

I can live with two runs every inning.

41 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:09 pm

batting practice.

42 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:11 pm

[38] i love the clarinet.

when i had to play it in college, it was not sweet...or quiet. trying to cross the break with the register key, i produced nothing short of a horrifying sound. if you listen to the orchestral version of "musica de la noche", you'll hear plenty of clarinet. and i love me some eddie daniels!

43 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:11 pm

meanwhile...

SWISH!!!

and 7-string guitar working on his OBP.

44 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:12 pm

oh yeah, leave him in!

45 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:13 pm

i'm just seeing at lohud that johnny got his own roll call. very cool. i have the first 1.5 innings on dvr, will watch later...

46 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:19 pm

sutcliffe is insufferable.

47 Mattpat11   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:22 pm

[46] I can only imagine he's still saying Jason Varitek should be AL MVP

48 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:23 pm

The Jays look like the Yanks did yesterday, giving back their lead on errors.

49 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:23 pm

not a fan of the back-to-back walks to begin the inning.

and where the hell did everyone go???

50 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:25 pm

[47] yes, he's talking about shit sox players every chance he gets! fat liar, middlebrooks... and that annoying inflection in his delivery.

51 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:25 pm

[49] Had to let the dogs in.
Double play. Ok, pop up.

52 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:26 pm

very nice, kuroda!

53 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:27 pm

[51] is it crazy hot & humid by you, too?

54 Mattpat11   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:29 pm

What's Ruben Sierra up to these days?

55 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:33 pm

Nothing you can do about that. Fine play.

56 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:33 pm

ah, crap.

no clue on sierra. his name doesn't come up often with the 'roids talk (anymore)...

57 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:35 pm

[53] Nope, actually quite pleasant. Able to turn AC off and open windows today.

58 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:37 pm

Sounds like I'm missing a laugher. The wife must watch the olympic swimming trials. She sez something like, the Yankees play everyday...olympics every four years. I can't argue, and I don't want to be lying in the bed watching the other TV.

Cano doing his hail Marys making up for yesterday?

59 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:39 pm

great job, kuroda!

60 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:39 pm

Ma-ma-ma-ma Kuroda!

61 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:39 pm

Nice and easy.

62 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:44 pm

c'mon blow jays!

damn : /

63 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:45 pm

Jetes better get a hit tonight, or he falls below .300 (I know this is probably a non-sequitur, but I'm not watching the game).

64 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:48 pm

siddown, ass dribble!

65 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:49 pm

Have a seat.

66 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:49 pm

[63] yeah, i was just thinkin' that he's about to drop below .300

67 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:52 pm

great job of espn to NOT show the strike out pitch.

dumbasses.

68 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:55 pm

if we keep the runs and hits the way they are and record 6 errors, our line score will be very much to my liking!

6 6 6

69 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 7:57 pm

thankfully this "Cy" Barnes guy didn't start, otherwise we'd be URP'ed.

70 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:01 pm

[68] I'm going to have to mention this at our next Kabbalah for Cano meeting.

71 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:04 pm

Wise move by GI Joe!

72 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:04 pm

Dang, he's fast. I didn't think that was a triple, but Dewayne sure did.

73 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:05 pm

[70] ok. i can make that meeting!

Arencibia (super cool name, unlike "Ass Dribble") gives the Jays the lead again!

oh, and Wise was out at 3rd...

74 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:06 pm

Blue Jays back on top 7-5. Would love to see Boston finish in last place.

75 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:07 pm

Arencibia two-run shot, Jays take the lead.

76 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:08 pm

Oh, jeez, I wasn't even close to being first with that news, huh?

77 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:11 pm

[76] Gotta be quick round here.

78 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:14 pm

YEAH!

nice play, cap!!!

79 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:14 pm

Got him!

80 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:14 pm

Kid can play, no doubt.

81 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:15 pm

great work, hiroki!

82 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:15 pm

Shutout intact.

83 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:17 pm

[58] Swimming trials? They show that on tv?

7th inning already! I missed all the fireworks.

84 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:22 pm

Yay! Well done, Jetes.

85 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:22 pm

captain amassing more hits!

tomorrow, he catches up to me, age-wise...

86 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:24 pm

[85] Wow!
I wonder when he'll catch up to me. It's gonna take a few more years, for sure.

87 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:24 pm

gotta swing at that, curtis.

88 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:25 pm

Ouch!

89 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:26 pm

ugly is just as ugly in pale hose. and that batting stance. oy vey.

jesus. not Tex's hand. FUCK! that's gotta hoit...

um, take him outta the game.

90 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:26 pm

Bautista hangs two more on the Sox.

91 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:27 pm

Whew, got in first this time!

92 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:28 pm

[91] dogs needed to go out again.

93 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:32 pm

[90] nice!

[91] but you haven't mentioned the fact that the game is in a rain delay.

[92] i was actually first on the last one! : )

94 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:32 pm

I guess we'll find out who Joe considers to be the mop-up guy.

95 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:33 pm

It's Rapada, obviously.

[93] Yeah, it wasn't in rain delay when I commented! Not raining here so I don't think it will end the game.

96 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:36 pm

shoulda been the Chief. seems like he doesn't pitch much nowadays...

97 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:38 pm

Swisher!

98 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:38 pm

wow. nice play, swish!

shutout still in tact!

99 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:39 pm

[98] Tactless.

100 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:40 pm

another nice play, swish.

shutout no longer in tact.

i'm out to go pick up dinner. i'll be back in time to see Mo pitch. oh, wait...

Dang shut out gone, good play Nick.

102 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:41 pm

[99] couth. i have none.

but soon i'll have asian noodles!

103 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:42 pm

Oh, very nice.

104 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:43 pm

Hm, I just realized, Thelarmis, these clubs have Coltrane and Santana for catchers (though the former not today). Good start for a band. Oh, if it's Alice Coltrane, maybe even better! Illuminations.

105 RIYank   ~  Jun 25, 2012 8:57 pm

[96] You got what you wanted in the ninth.

Nice, easy victory. Yay!

106 rbj   ~  Jun 25, 2012 9:00 pm

good night all.

107 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 9:00 pm

nice!

good night all

108 thelarmis   ~  Jun 25, 2012 9:00 pm

[106] got me this time! ; )
