Yanks are down in Tampa—at their very own house of horrors—for the weekend. Hey, at least it’s got air-conditioning.

Never mind the bloomin’ onions:

Let’s Go Yank-ees!

Had to turn on the AC here. If it were just me, I wouldn't, but the hounds were dragging. Hope the bats get hot.

2 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 6:13 pm

Lead off hits are always welcome

3 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 6:25 pm

Wasted opportunity

4 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 6:42 pm

Looky what Dustin found

5 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 6:50 pm

Archer is my bitch. 18 for 26 .692

6 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 6:51 pm

Jeez. Boo me

7 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:09 pm

Now score some runs

8 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:12 pm

High strike, blue

9 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:15 pm

Didi safe safe!

10 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:20 pm

Rats, a hit

11 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:21 pm

And now a WP

12 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:23 pm

Tanaka!

13 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:27 pm

Outstanding catch, Brett!

14 Boatzilla   ~  May 27, 2016 7:28 pm

Hey Team. They gotta get to Archer.

Upstairs toilet flooded last night while we were sleeping. Right through to the kitchen light fixture below. Good excuse to watch the game while waiting for Roto Rooter.

The property management company has been putting band aids on this faulty crapper for years and they're grilling us about what we did to make it happen. Sheesh.

15 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:33 pm

[14] oh man, that sucks.

I once had an apartment that flooded a lot. Their solution was drain cleaner. They should have gotten a clue the 3rd time it wasn't a clogged drain, but more likely roots in the pipes. Property manager was sheepish when I gave notice.

16 Boatzilla   ~  May 27, 2016 7:33 pm

Woo-hoo!

17 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:33 pm

Gotta score here

18 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:34 pm

Oh crap, Carlos on first, DP coming up

19 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 7:35 pm

Not every day that you see a batter reach first safely (on a ball in play) and Brett doesn't score from third!

20 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:35 pm

Thank God for shoddy defense!

21 Boatzilla   ~  May 27, 2016 7:36 pm

gifts!

22 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:36 pm

Alex go boom!

23 Boatzilla   ~  May 27, 2016 7:39 pm

That's what I'm talkin' about.

24 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:42 pm

Damn, Castro threw him out

25 kenboyer made me cry   ~  May 27, 2016 7:44 pm

[19] this game has featured a lot of unusualness. Unassisted putout by Tanaka between second and third. With basically three errors last inning the Yankees almost scored only one until Alex bombed. All three runs given up by Archer unearned.

Not used to a meat handed team in Tampa.

26 kenboyer made me cry   ~  May 27, 2016 7:45 pm

Really nice play by Starlin Vocal Band.

27 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 7:49 pm

Phew, got out of that

28 kenboyer made me cry   ~  May 27, 2016 7:50 pm

Tanaka is a well trained athletic fielder.

29 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 7:56 pm

[27] I have to admit that I was thinking, "if they score one run it's no problem".
Can't think like that. I mean, taking No-Run DMC for granted.

30 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 8:02 pm

[29] I'm all in favor of insurance. Even Chapman can give up a run

31 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:05 pm

Tanaka was one of the smartest acquisitions Cashman ever made.

32 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 8:06 pm

81 pitches for Tanaka. MC for the 8th & 9th? Maybe no extra day of rest needed?

33 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:12 pm

Dang, Carlos!
That's insurance. Nice.

34 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 8:12 pm

Carlos go boom!

35 Boatzilla   ~  May 27, 2016 8:12 pm

[15] Thanks. Landlady is my wife's aunt. But she's clueless. Defers everything to the property management company, who we just call directly. It's a bit of a pickle.

[30] You called it. More BOOM!

36 kenboyer made me cry   ~  May 27, 2016 8:16 pm

Carlitos! Arod broke the seal, maybe they both continue? That was the first earned run for Archer. He's a good still young arm.

37 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:18 pm

Good recovery, Andrew.

38 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 8:19 pm

Blech

39 kenboyer made me cry   ~  May 27, 2016 8:20 pm

Taylor Motter, an Allman Brothers kin?

40 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:21 pm

Hm.
Andrew is a bit wild.

41 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:23 pm

Better.

42 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:24 pm

Okay.
Hm, I don't think Aroldis should be squandered on this game, honestly. Let some scrub have a shot.

43 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 8:29 pm

Kirby time

44 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:32 pm

Yep.
Good call!
I feel like Joe is doing a pretty good job this year.

45 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 8:32 pm

One down

46 kenboyer made me cry   ~  May 27, 2016 8:33 pm

[44] he must be if he agrees with you..

47 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 8:34 pm

Don't like seeing Chapman up

48 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 8:34 pm

Two down

49 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:38 pm

Well, he's just Kirby Yates.

50 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:39 pm

World's easiest Save for Aroldis?

51 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 8:40 pm

Whelp, there's the shutout. Insurance is a good thing.

52 kenboyer made me cry   ~  May 27, 2016 8:40 pm

Pierce was not going to be denied. No worries, insurance was purchased. Must Chapman always get in the game in a save situation?

53 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:41 pm

You'd make a great insurance salesman.

54 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:41 pm

[52] Not what I'd do, therefore...

55 kenboyer made me cry   ~  May 27, 2016 8:42 pm

I'm your good neighbor!

56 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:44 pm

Unbelievable.

57 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 8:45 pm

We have to come up with a good insurance theme. Maybe. Alex could monetize it. All insurance companies invited to bid.

58 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:46 pm

Another oddity for this game. It would be cool if he came in for a one-out save and struck out two...

59 RIYank   ~  May 27, 2016 8:47 pm

And indeed he does!

Very cool.

60 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 8:47 pm

Three down! One more to back to .500

61 rbj   ~  May 27, 2016 8:47 pm

Night all

62 kenboyer made me cry   ~  May 27, 2016 8:48 pm

Nice win, great start by Tanaka! Enjoy the long weekend.

63 Boatzilla   ~  May 27, 2016 8:50 pm

Beautiful.
