Resistance am Foo!

Tampa always seems to have good, young starting pitchers. This year we can add Chris Archer to the crop. He was outstanding today against the soporific, gluten-free Yankee offense. He allowed two hits, faced just two men over the minimum, and pitched a shutout. His fielders didn’t rescue him with memorable plays and the Yankees did not hit the ball hard. Archer just kicked their asses.

Another fine outing for the resurgent Ivan Nova wasted.

Rays 1, Yanks 0.

[1] I found the Yankees offense, they were in Al Capone's vault.
(Yikes, that joke is about 20 years past its prime. Kind of like the Yankees O! Boom!)

[2] I get no cell coverage here. Which could explain a lot of things.

[4] it's A-Rod's fault, that explains everything.

That was A-Rod's fault, too. His influence on Yankee fate is like the empirical smell of fresh cat poo...

"If we are going to get back in the race, we have to win games." Just brilliant. Sounds like Casey Stengel to me.

But what I am most impressed with is Jeter batting 8 times. I wonder who pitched and whether he hit the ball out of the infield. Do they have an infield in simulated games? Simulated games are played in the simulacrum, right. Can you buy a hot dog or a beer? Do they keep score? Who judges whether he had a good simulated game or a bad one?

[8] Tofu dogs and near beer.
