The hapless-hittin’ Yanks limp into Fenway tonight and you wonder if this is going to be a season of ass-beatings or what? Way the Yankees have been hitting, it wouldn’t come as any surprise. Then again, a cruddy Yankee team could have the Sox number, who the hell knows? Either way, we’ll be here rooting.
Never mind the hub-bub:
Let’s Go Yank-ees!
I'm gonna be optimistic tonight six runs in the first two innings to knock Owens out
Yeah, I wanna see the Score Truck.
Promising start.
Sigh
And of course we don't score. This is a Charlie Brown team
"We'll see how they score that!"
Like how the fuck else could you score it? He kicked it nine feet in the air.
Ken Singleton now making dad jokes.
Yay!
9 more please
Arod go BOOM!
Alex!
Ka-boom!
Castro! Now cash him in for our allotted second run
Headley gets an error and that's a triple. Bullfuckingshit.
Not deep enough.
fuck.
Or that
damn, i missed A-Rod's homer!
tanaka'ed!
good eye, rbj
'Daddy, why doesn't Headley get any hits? Is he like Stephen Drew?'
:(
Ah, a play
Plays.
Fucking plays.
I've always liked Girardi, but this shit has to stop.
jesus fucking christ. what a bunch o' bollocks.
Gardner swings at ball four, Ellsbury thrown out easily. Bad baseball.
What an awful at bat by Gardner.
my little foul out!!!
[20] Stephen Drew would occasionally hit a homer.
I kinda want to see 9 double plays along with a win.
Just missed
Perhaps we signed Chase Hedy ...
I feel like at least once a game this happens.
shi[f]t
I predict Headley won't get a hit next inning
Tanaka looking great. Shame about the O'.
Right, now, no plays. No. Plays.
[33] As so often happens.
Headley homer coming up. I'm calling it
We have more double plays than the Sox have had base runners.
A-yup
Or that.
i'm thinking wall ball for chase.
oy and vey.
Chase Hedy is fucking awful.
Ouch
ouchie.
Au contraire ... Hedy is contributing plenty to the team effort ... the team effort to SUCK.
The most entertaining part of this game was learning Pedroia got jealous of someone with hair and made him cut it.
3 runs in 6 innings is a "really good game" now?
Hey, quit head hunting me!
Owens has to be taking 35 seconds between pitches.
How have they only scored 1 off this horrible pitcher??
[51] Double plays.
I think we're trying to set the record. (Which is seven, in a nine inning game.)
Taco!
Of course, you know, this means a DP is coming ...
[52] Also, the Yankees have a horrible offense
Oh, sorry, 2 out already.
Otherwise!
Our second run!
Hey!
What the hell?
How did that happen? What do they call that, an RBI?
[55] That definitely would have broken the record for one inning.
Well, there's whatever the hell that was. That's good.
A run ... is FUN!
a run and speed on the bases!
Dammit. I had irrational confidence in Carlos.
Kenny with the Different Strokes drop!
What ARE you talking about, Willis?
DOH!
:facepalm:
Willis! Watchu want!
we'll take that two out rbi by Gritty.
Hey guys, recovering from hernia surgery, floating on pain pills. This might be a dangerous game for me.
[63] I thought he was talking about Willis Reed?
I thought that was Willis in the 6th game.
Feel better soon kenboyer!
Brock Holt annoys me for some reason.
Nice play by Chase.
Hey, kenboyer, heal up.
nice play, chase.
feel better, KB!
[66] That might be the only good way to watch this team right now. Have some muscle relaxants for the back, but that means I can't do anything. And the dogs need to go to the park on the weekends.
Cone is such a good announcer. Wish he'd be the regular color guy
sweet!
Thanks all, I'll be fine. Headley did make a good play, but I think he's had a long enough audition. He's just not the hitter that was expected.
Holy cow, the Mets scored 12 runs in an inning.
Cespides has six rbi in one inning.
How are they not destroying this guy????
We don't score 12 runs in a week ...
[80] Because of the double plays.
Please pay attention.
Ah, Bucky Fucking Dent. It was a school day, had friends with a transistor radio, so got some updates.
Okay, big batter here. Come on, Hiro! Man. Get through Papi and our win expectancy skyrockets...
Bucky Dent! Made my year as a youngsta. I believe our Yankee friend Don Zimmer was manager of the Sox. Bucky cost him his job.
Oh boy, 3-1. Yikes. Don't give in!
Whew. I was nervous, don't mind admitting it.
Phew
Ace! 田中頑張れ！
Hiro dreams of Tesh plays!
That was a strike?
That strike two call effen up that at bat for Castro.
Quality start but looking at a loss
Headley makes an out? Inconceivable!
That's Hedy!
It's a quality start, but I don't think he pitched well. The Yankees hit him for an average of .300, .395 OBP, with a homer and a triple. The DPs saved Owens' butt.
Nervous with only two runs in Fenway.
Hmm, hope the shift doesn't bite them in the ass
Uh oh.
Eeergh
Hanigan is a terrible hitter. Should be okay.
Dancin' Betances, please!
I do not want to see Shreve or Barbados here, has to be Betances..
Got him. Beautiful.
Okay!
Now just Bradley, junior.
Figures.
Yeah, Dellin. But one batter too late.
:-(
Fuck....
Fuck.
NOW we get Betances?
Ugh.
Yankees 2016 model.
You piss on your RISP chances ...
I mean, it makes sense, let Tanaka get the last out. But man.
Mistake by Binder Joe there. Should have taken him out as he left pitches up all inning.
Damn coffee Joe for going decaf
Wait, what? I go to let the dogs out for last call and it's tied?
Mother fucker.
Bleh.
[113] yup, Fenway special. What are your dogs favorite drink for last call?
[116] I guess it's water, but the chaser is squirrel.
Well those were some impressive at bats.
Fugh.
This isn't going to end well, is it ...
Ya know, I'm thinking maybe the Yankees aren't such a good team this year..
These pain pills prevent disappointment and frustration, but do not conjure confidence,
Time to say our prayers.
With each passing game it becomes more apparent that this is just a lousy baseball team
guess you guys couldn't hold the lead while i went to grab some grub...
come the fuck on, castro! : /
How is that not an error?
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!
Mofuckingdammit!
Well, that's a pretty insurmountable lead
Home scoring?
and there it is. as soon as i sit down to eat...
i really fucking HATE that fat piece 'o shit. retire already.
This fucking team.
I'm out..enjoy the weekend everyone.
Vomits in mouth.
G'nite all.
Yeah, I'm just gonna watch the end in silence. New game tomorrow
my fault. See [96].
The slow realization that the Yankees are probably the worst team in the American League is not as infuriating as I thought it would be. God bless the Braves.
fuck that play!
Absolute horseshit.
At least it's a beautiful spring day in Tokyo.
