First game I get to watch in two weeks. So I don't want any horseshit.

Nice DP.

[1] Raul's called strike 3 is you the first plop of the night. Verlander's got a perfect game so far. Just sayin'....

4 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 6, 2012 6:31 pm

Whoops. Do not need the word "you" above. Horseshit indeed.

5 rbj   ~  Aug 6, 2012 6:33 pm

Prince will do that to ya. Just make sure the bases are empty.

6 rbj   ~  Aug 6, 2012 6:37 pm

Good recovery Nova.

7 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 6, 2012 6:43 pm

Do the Yankees lead the league with singles with a man on second NOT scoring?

8 rbj   ~  Aug 6, 2012 6:47 pm

Wasting a leadoff double against Verlander isn't horseshit, it's horseshite.

9 rbj   ~  Aug 6, 2012 7:07 pm

Miguel will do that too.

10 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 6, 2012 7:20 pm

Thank Mo for The Captain.

11 rbj   ~  Aug 6, 2012 7:21 pm

A hit with RISP!

12 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 6, 2012 7:22 pm

Robinson! Nice! Tied up thanks to the E1.

13 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 6, 2012 7:24 pm

And Teix stares hopelessly at 3 straight curve balls.

14 rbj   ~  Aug 6, 2012 7:25 pm

Tying up against JV Is horse sugar.

15 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 6, 2012 7:31 pm

For fuck's sake, Nova. Dammit!

16 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 6, 2012 7:33 pm

H.O.R.S.E.S.H.I.T.

Man, just got home, turned on the game and Nova goes: single, single + RBI, single + RBI, sac fly.

Fuck this noise, there's a replay of USA women's olympic soccer I could be watching.

But hey, that Nova kid, he just knows how to win, amiright???

It's been tough to see Nova pitch lately, but what can Joe do?

Garcia can only go 5 or 6 innings, then comes Nova the next day.

Any alternatives?

[18] I believe Derek Lowe has been DFA'ed. . .

Yeesh, Mark.
