That's an HBP?

2 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 1:44 pm

Blergh. Game over with this offense facing Sale.

3 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 1:52 pm

The Peanuts' Lucy is playing for the White Sox?

4 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:01 pm

C'mon, Zealous! Little bingo!

5 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:01 pm

I'll take that HBP

6 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:02 pm

Holy Shit! ICHIROOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

7 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:03 pm

Ichiro!!

8 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:06 pm

Gifts need to be appreciated. Yanks must win this game

9 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:10 pm

ICHIRO!!!

10 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:12 pm

Oh great, mix n match.

11 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:15 pm

Phew

12 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:17 pm

Damn, "Faith" is right. When we fell behind 3-0 it took a whole lot of faith not to turn of the tv in despair. (Or shut down the browser window, as the case may be.)

13 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:17 pm

Whew.

14 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:23 pm

Hm, Adam Warren up. Not Dellin.

15 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:32 pm

Day-um, Adam!

16 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:33 pm

Verrrrrry impressive.

17 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:44 pm

Fuck!

18 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:44 pm

That wasn't good.

19 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:46 pm

You gotta be fucking kidding me.

FUCKING SHIT!!!

20 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:47 pm

DRob better get through this, and hope the Yanks assist his would be vulturing win.

21 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:48 pm

Don't like the swings the Sox are getting on DRob.

22 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:54 pm

Good start, rbj!

Now, steal safely.

23 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:54 pm

Steal then bunt. Deja vu.

24 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:54 pm

Hmm. I would not bunt here.

25 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:55 pm

I like Guerra thinking about Ells. I bet that raises Ichiro's BA by 100 points.

But, uh, not with two strikes.

26 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:55 pm

Stephen Drew will pinch hit for Ryan???

Explain this to me.

27 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:57 pm

Nice steal, me.

28 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:57 pm

There ya go.

29 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:58 pm

Shitty Ichiro.

Good job, Ells. Was close.

IBB. C'mon Cap!!! No DP!!!

30 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 2:59 pm

Oh, beautiful.

IBB for Stephen Drew. That is excellent.

So that's why Joe didn't waste McCann or Brett on this AB! He's a genius. I don't know why I question him.

31 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:01 pm

I think Ellsbury has to be thinking about swiping third. If they aren't holding him on, aren't looking for it, it would be a huge play. (Says the man who hates plays.)

32 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:01 pm

These games lately have had high drama movements. Please Derek...
7 years since a Captain walk off.

33 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:02 pm

Withering

34 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:03 pm

Boo

35 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:03 pm

Aaaaaaaaaa!

36 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:05 pm

[32] that should have been "moments".
I had a high drama movement this morning.

37 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:05 pm

CRAP!!! : /

I even brought Sophia down to watch and be a good luck charm...

38 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:07 pm

cano left the game against the shit sox in the 3rd inning due to dizziness.

huh. hope he's alright...

39 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:11 pm

he gone.

40 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:16 pm

yeah!!!

please win now. i'd like to get on with my day...

41 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:16 pm

Huff has ice in his veins as cold as Winter's pitch calling.

42 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:17 pm

Another chance.

43 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:18 pm

Come on a Yankees... Eric has to entertain his newlywed wife, time to win.

44 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:21 pm

bad, marteen.

let's go Tex!

45 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:22 pm

[43] exactly! : )

she's working on lesson plans, but we'd like to go to the park and continue to teach the kid how to ride a bike.

46 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:22 pm

Still hope!

47 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:23 pm

nice hit and hustle, Beli!!!

48 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:23 pm

[45] Harley?

49 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:23 pm

[46] i'm hoping for two balks.

you?

50 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:23 pm

Let Cervelli hit! He's as clutch as anyone on this team right now.

51 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:24 pm

Please send Carlos home.

52 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:24 pm

So Chase and Stephen Drew have each drawn an IBB today. Amazing.

Also, are we sure McCann has a better shot at driving in the run? Than Frankie?

53 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:24 pm

[48] actually, it's called Iron Horse. and it's pink - like her Jeter t-shirt! : )

54 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:25 pm

B-Mac *will* win the game.

55 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:26 pm

[53] Iron Horse is a very good lager!

56 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:26 pm

He did it!!!!!

57 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:26 pm

McCann could!!!!!

58 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:26 pm

[55] nice! do they make ales, as well?

59 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:27 pm

YES HE MCCANN!

60 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:27 pm

[56] he did?

my feed is slow...

61 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:27 pm

HE'S A MCCAN!!!

62 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:27 pm

YES!!!

[54] told ya ; )

63 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:28 pm

YAY! You called it! Now have fun, and get your running in teaching a kid to ride a bike.

64 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:28 pm

i got the chills. nice feeling.

GO YANKS!!!

65 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:29 pm

[63] thanks, KB! : )

66 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:34 pm

But don't give her any lager. That's next year.

67 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 24, 2014 3:34 pm

[65] time marches on. I first rode a two wheeler without training wheels the day John Glenn orbited the earth. Is that a long time ago?

68 RIYank   ~  Aug 24, 2014 4:44 pm

Fernando Rodney trying to close a two-run lead has just loaded the bases full of Red Sox.
Goes 2-0 to Good Ol' Kelly Johnson.

And then strikes him out for the S.

Thank god Rodney is not our closer (even though D-Rob actually blew a save today!).

69 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2014 4:59 pm

[68] Been watching the Tigers closers over the years. We were spoiled with Mo. Imagine having to rely on Todd Jones.

Shudder
