Might stay up for a couple of innings but about to shut down the iPad. Thunderstorm on Saturday has ushered in some weather that feels autumnal.

[1] Flooding and some damage from the typhoon here yesterday. Mother Nature is giving us all a battering this summer..

Love the west coast games, can listen over lunch here in Nippon.

3 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 22, 2016 9:20 pm

The Sheriff is in town, Look Out!

4 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 9:55 pm

[3] But "Sheriff don't like it...." ;>)

Sorry, I missed it, but Castro's bomb was one to write home about.

5 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 9:57 pm

Leiter just called a cricket bat a "paddle." It's not kadima, fool!

6 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 9:58 pm

The Sheriff is doing the shooting today. [sorry, I can't help myself.

7 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:01 pm

[6] I know you've had some run ins with Deputy Dawg Sheriff's in your past as a hot-rod teenager in Joisey, right?

8 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:08 pm

[7] Actually laughing out loud!

It's a crime how many times they let me go without even a slap on the wrist. "Only one joint? You're going straight home, right?" White boy privilege.

9 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:19 pm

[8] Yep. Those pre-'Just Say No' 'War On Drugs' days were amazing..

10 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:29 pm

There's always that ONE meltdown with Pineda..wish they could pinpoint those moments and calm him down.

11 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:37 pm

Speaking of which, I'll be staying in "The Haight" for a couple of nights when I go to San Fran in Sept-Oct. Autumn of Love.

12 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:38 pm

Rockin' the Casbah!

13 seamus   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:38 pm

The sheriff is unreal.

14 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:38 pm

GO GO GARY!!!

holy crap. fucking *crushed*!!! another multi-homer game for the kid. (right - he had one already?)

we'z winnin' again \m/

15 seamus   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:39 pm

[14] yep second multi homer game.

16 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:40 pm

why do you guys call him the Sheriff? does it have to do with Judge? i'm not a fan of that...

Sanchize is good.

17 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:40 pm

[10] Don't throw a fast ball right down the middle on 3-0?

18 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:41 pm

[16] No idea. I was just going with the flow. (*J*)

19 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:42 pm

Holy Shite!

20 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:43 pm

haha, holy crap!

two multi-homer games!!

these shots are massive to straight away center. nice!

21 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:43 pm

Castro's like, "Don't forget about me."

22 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:43 pm

[18] : )

23 seamus   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:44 pm

[16] someone called him sheriff Sanchez and we liked it. I believe that was before Judge even played? Or maybe not.

24 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:45 pm

.391/.435/.844 - Gary's triple slash : o

25 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:47 pm

i dig how didi carries torre-yes after homers. might be our rally cry!

26 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:47 pm

[24] Sheriff & the Judge is not bad! Not sure who started that..

27 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:50 pm

[26] maybe i'll come around on sheriff, but not digging it now...

if castro walked twice as much as he does, he'd be rather useful...

28 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:54 pm

i'm liking gary's demeanor and disposition behind the dish.

29 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:55 pm

[27] Who's the Deputy? Austin?

We've got the Knight, too.

30 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 22, 2016 10:56 pm

It's very cool that near the end of a non-playoff season, there are so many enjoyable players on the team.

31 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:02 pm

SWARZAK?!?!?!

WTF is wrong with you, GI Joe??? : /

32 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:07 pm

[31] Sigh...

33 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:07 pm

Joe, you FAILED!

34 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:07 pm

FUCK YOU, JOE!!! fuck you straight to hell.

swarzak shouldn't be on the fucking team, let alone an important game in the most critical moment. you fucking SUCK, Joe. fuck you!

35 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:09 pm

[30] Jinx! ;>)

I'm outta here. Thanks for sharing, folks.

36 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:10 pm

i am not upset with anthony swarzak. he is a terrible fucking pitcher. he doesn't belong in the major leagues. girardi is a fucking dick fuck! i am soooo pissed at him. he's supposed to be good at managing a bullpen. he isn't. he's been pulling starters too early and using the wrong guys. especially, anthony fucking swarzak. i beg cashman to take him away from girardi. right after this game (that we will now lose).

ps - fuck you, gi joe!!!

37 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:15 pm

i do not want GI Joe guiding the Baby Bombers.

oh, FUCK YOU right fielder. you're nearly as much of an asshole as the Yankee manager.

38 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:16 pm

[36] But tell us what you're really thinking about JoeyJoeJoe, don't hold back!

Oh thelarmis, will hit you offline about Bobby Hutcherson :(

39 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:18 pm

vidal nuno? really?!

40 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:20 pm

[38] i think he's a fucking FUCK!!! : )

i mean, he completely threw away the ballgame. there are millions of people who would NEVER have put Swarzak in the game at that time. NO ONE would have done it. there is only ONE idiot on the planet that would call on swarzak to pitch at that moment and he's the only one who has the power to do it. fucking shit fuck!

41 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:21 pm

what a bunch of fucking bollocks. : /

42 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:24 pm

oh, yay - swarzak is still pitching! wahoo! and, when that fails, kirby fucking yates will come in the game. awesome.

fuck you, GI Joe.

43 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:29 pm

so, wait... he strikes out two batters, you send the pitching coach to have a meeting with him, he walks the next guy, and now you replace with him kirby fucking yates? this just happened?

again: fuck you, GI Joe.

44 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:31 pm

Right-hander to face Robbie.

good move, Joe!

45 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:34 pm

Gary with the GUN!!!

man, that kid is soooo impressive.

girardi's bullpen moves are equivalent of pinch-hitting some scrub bench guy for sanchez in the prime moment of the game.

46 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:44 pm

thelarmis, rumor has it you'll see Brian McCannCann back in Hotlanta next season now that the Sheriff is in town.

47 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:48 pm

[46] fine by me.

robbie gave it a ride; rbj made a nice catch.

48 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:49 pm

[47] M's radio men mentioned that with his next 2-bagger, Robbie will be only the 4th player ever to hit 30+ doubles for 12 straight seasons. Go Go Robbie Cano! I still miss him.

49 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:49 pm

and, there it is again. shocker.

boomstick goes boom off another pitcher who has no business being the major leagues, on this team and, especially, in this game.

GI Joe - you are a fucking tool. please retire on friday and become a special adviser to no one.

50 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2016 11:50 pm

[48] wow!

51 thelarmis   ~  Aug 23, 2016 12:00 am

that was outside. not your fault, judge.

blame joe!

52 thelarmis   ~  Aug 23, 2016 12:04 am

we better tie this fucking game.

let's go, Tex!

53 thelarmis   ~  Aug 23, 2016 12:04 am

DAMMIT!!! : /

54 thelarmis   ~  Aug 23, 2016 12:08 am

fuck you, GI Joseph Fucking Girardi.
