This has the makings of a long weekend. But that’s cause I’m never much on confidence when it comes to my sports teams. I still remember those horrible late-season series vs the Jays in the mid-’80s. Screw those guys and screw these Jays, too. Upstarts. Fuckos. Douche Knots. They are a perfectly agreeable team to dislike–even though I like a bunch of their players (Martin, Donaldson, Price, Tulo). Their manager looking like a tin-cup-spitting-bar-stool-sitting hard ass pal of Brian Dennehey’s. Goddamn crotchy fucking goat.
The Yanks had done reasonably well against Price and that’s a concern. Figure he’s due for a good one against them. Only hope Nova is up to the task.
Ah, never mind my gloom–it’s a gorgeous day here in New York:
Let’s Go Yank-ees!
Dogs walked, groceries gotten, lawn mowed. Now to sit back and relax.
Nova is a tough guy but 45 pitches in 2 innings. Warren in the wings.
I said this the last time he started but I'm liking this Higher K version of Nova. Did TJ surgery cause this or am I being silly?
Nova at 69 pitches in 4..a bit better. Hope they get to Price 2nd time around.
Are the Yankees going to...... Oh, there's a hit. Yay, Alex.
oh, come on. not the way to begin an inning.
nice play, mac!
good call, cone. i, too, was wondering why tex didn't even look to 2nd to try to get the lead runner. huh...
juuuuust a bit off the plate.
ugly route, young. but he made the catch.
whew. still scoreless.
That was a nice nap, hope the bats wake up too.
I'm trying to convince myself that tomorrow is a win and today is a bonus.
nice play, dodo.
i have a feeling i'm really gonna hate this inning.
yup. hating this inning.
and it's about to get a whole lot worse...
and there it is.
Shit. One batter too long
Joe is really guessing wrong. Thought he would bring in Shreve.
Looks like I picked the wrong day to stop sniffin' glue.
GI Joe will have lost both games of this series.
This isn't helping me relax
Can't win a game if you don't score any runs.
Well that was a waste of an afternoon.
Feels like we're entering the twilight zone. I still think we should have pursued Cole Hamels. Lefty's thrive in the Bronx.
It's all down to Tank to keep us from tanking this series.
I have a question. Why hasn't Gardner been playing every inning of every game?
[24] perhaps.
[25] i know, right?!
GI Joe really fucked us these last two games. Miller should've stayed in another inning, Nova shouldn't have faced Smoak...
