"A New York Treasure" --Village Voice

Aie, Papi

old-man-strut-bags

It’s pretty funny that the Yanks are giving Ortiz a little send off next time the Sox are in town. They should give him an all-expenses paid trip to the North Pole so he doesn’t change his mind—which he will—next year and come back to drive in more runs against the Bombers.

Sox buried the Yanks 7-4 last night and it’s getting late, fast, for the upstarts.

More this afternoon.

Oh, well, never mind reality:

Let’s Go Yank-ees!

7 thelarmis   ~  Sep 17, 2016 1:05 pm

had it been a shit sox player, the fox crew would've gone nuts. they were practically silent...

8 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 1:13 pm

Damn

9 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 1:28 pm

Romine gets those runs back

10 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 1:49 pm

Uh oh, Castro comes up lame

11 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 1:51 pm

Probably his hammy, see ya in spring training

12 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 2:08 pm

Ugh

13 thelarmis   ~  Sep 17, 2016 2:17 pm

We're gonna lose 12-5, aren't we?

14 thelarmis   ~  Sep 17, 2016 2:24 pm

Losing Castro is kind of a big deal...

15 thelarmis   ~  Sep 17, 2016 2:32 pm

Jesus, Sevy

16 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 2:32 pm

Rush roh

17 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 2:34 pm

Come on Sevvy

18 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 2:37 pm

Pheeeeew!

19 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 2:54 pm

Boo, me

20 thelarmis   ~  Sep 17, 2016 3:03 pm

And there it is...

21 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 3:03 pm

Shit

22 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 3:09 pm

Fuck

23 thelarmis   ~  Sep 17, 2016 3:12 pm

of course.

we will lose today, then get swept tomorrow.

24 thelarmis   ~  Sep 17, 2016 3:26 pm

let's see how the shit sox score (at least) four this frame.

25 thelarmis   ~  Sep 17, 2016 3:39 pm

so...we'll lose, but they won't score in the double digits.

yay?

26 thelarmis   ~  Sep 17, 2016 3:42 pm

that was inside, blue.

27 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 3:43 pm

What a shitty series this has turned out to be.

28 thelarmis   ~  Sep 17, 2016 3:43 pm

i hate kimbrel's setup. very douchey.

29 rbj   ~  Sep 17, 2016 3:45 pm

Le sigh

30 thelarmis   ~  Sep 17, 2016 3:46 pm

i knew it would be a backward k. of course.

31 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:13 pm

Good start, Gritner.

Let's see how he doesn't score...

32 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:13 pm

Who the hell is Donovan Solano?

5 of 9 in this lineup spent time in SWB this year. Oh well, big league experience for these guys. Better than ST games

33 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:15 pm

There's a good way - don't advance the runner to third.

Solano apparently had a great season at Triple A.

34 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:16 pm

Solano is a mix between Soriano and Solarte!

35 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:16 pm

Not even close to going. No need for an appeal. Jeesh.

36 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:17 pm

Well on the way to not scoring...

37 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:17 pm

2 Ks so far

38 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:20 pm

Country Breakfast has been a good pickup. Nice work, Ca$h.

39 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:20 pm

Didi!

40 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:20 pm

Score!

41 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:22 pm

Crap. Mac gave it a ride.

So, I guess we'll lose _ _ - 1. Yes, the two lines are for their double digits.

42 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:33 pm

fuckin' markus.

hard hittin' hanley. fuck that guy.

43 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:39 pm

weak ass inning.

44 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:46 pm

nice play.

torreyes to butler. just like we drew it up.

45 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:48 pm

[44] in spring training.

46 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:52 pm

robbed. jeez.

47 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:53 pm

GARY GNU!!!

48 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:54 pm

Gary! Day-um

49 Ara Just Fair   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:55 pm

He's not s man he's a machine. Wow!

50 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:55 pm

Heh, Who wants some pancakes

51 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:55 pm

i'm just so happy that swarzak is off the dl. i hope he pitches multiple innings in every game for the rest of the season.

52 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:56 pm

the butler did it! he keeps on hitting. pretty amazing.

53 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:57 pm

another nice hit by didi. let's keep this 2-out rally up.

54 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 7:57 pm

would be really amazing if gary reaches 20 homers this season. i mean, the 16 is amazing, but 20...

55 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:09 pm

is sterling still doing the "gary is scary" call? it's beyond awful. doesn't even rhyme!

56 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:09 pm

come on, blue!

57 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:10 pm

go by markus. asshole.

58 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:12 pm

can't turn two.

59 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:12 pm

Got one out at leadt

60 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:14 pm

4-letter network LOVES the shit sox. Yanks, not so much...

61 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:16 pm

awesome. siddown, hanley. shut up, fens.

62 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:16 pm

Aw, sit down Hanley!

63 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:20 pm

beautiful!

line drive in the box score ; )

64 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:20 pm

Solano! First ML hit?

65 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:24 pm

Mase in yo' face!

looks like a review is coming. good lord, is pony fucker is *ugly*

(might be out)

66 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:24 pm

Hmm, too close to overturn?

67 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:25 pm

might be safe! not enough evidence to change the call.

either way, i HATE that stoopid fuckin' wall.

68 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:26 pm

Ha!

69 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:26 pm

SAFE!!!

70 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:28 pm

wow. 4-pitch walk to ref.

bases clogged, nobody out. we need a BIG inning here.

the announcers will be silent and sad...

71 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:28 pm

Fenway is an eyesore, needs to be torn down.

72 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:30 pm

outside, blue.

73 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:30 pm

Off the plate, blue

74 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:30 pm

[71] could not agree more.

good baserunning by ref. saved the dp.

3-0. must plate at least one more...

75 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:31 pm

I guess, rbi and all.

76 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:32 pm

MASON!!!

77 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:32 pm

Well, I'll take that, considering it's SWB vs. Bahstahn

78 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:33 pm

bad throw by midget fucker. great slide by Mace!

79 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:33 pm

reliever coming in for gary.

80 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:36 pm

another scummy looking shit sock.

81 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:38 pm

hope the long layoff doesn't hurt the very large man.

82 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:44 pm

O's vs. Shit Ox this week. Still can't root for RS

83 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:46 pm

popup to right and the crowd goes nuts like it was a 5-run homer off the bat.

84 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:46 pm

[82] i'm with you.

ball 3 could've been a strike...

85 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:48 pm

tribe lost 40% of their rotation. #2 and 3 starters. might bode well for the fucking shit sox. : /

86 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:49 pm

nice-ish play, solano.

87 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:54 pm

really want butler to go yard here.

88 rbj   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:55 pm

iPad is running low and I've been busy this weekend. Might watch a couple more innings, but I'm out, thelarmist.

89 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 8:57 pm

wow, is mac s l o w. nice double though!

90 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:04 pm

obviously a double. idiot fan. should be escorted out.

91 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:05 pm

no reason to look at this. there goes the fan. looks like his kid has to miss the rest of the game. dumbass.

92 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:06 pm

cc in the danger zone. this might be where we lose...

93 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:07 pm

one out.

94 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:10 pm

walked him. 2 out for markus.

sevy just now getting loose. shoulda been up before the inning started.

95 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:11 pm

FUCK!

bad CC, bad CC, bad CC. goddammit.

96 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:11 pm

bad butler too...

97 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:12 pm

great. blake is up. at least it isn't swarzak.

98 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:13 pm

hanley learning to whine after every called strike from fat liar.

99 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:14 pm

he's gonna walk the bases loaded, then blake is gonna give up a game tying granny.

100 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:16 pm

nope. hanley hit the 3-run job himself. duh.

this was sooo obvious. GI Joe sucks. no way we're winning this game.

of course, the announcer went ballistic but not so for gary's goner.

101 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:18 pm

wow. the banter is dead. sooo different than a coupla short seasons ago.

kinda sad... : (

102 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:20 pm

i wouldn't be surprised if we don't get another hit the rest of the game...

103 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:22 pm

ref k'd. shocking!

104 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:23 pm

austin should be playing rf over ref.

105 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:24 pm

here's where shit gets ugly. i think i'd prefer the shit sox to take the lead in the 7th, so i can turn this fucking game off. certainly better than them walking off in the 9th...

106 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:27 pm

WHAT?!?!

CC's still in?! WTF, GI Joe??? : /

107 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:30 pm

NOW, Tex is at first. too late, joe.

Sabs gives up TWO straight hits. we're gonna lose. and he's still in.

FUCK YOU, Joe. Fuck you.

108 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:31 pm

cc's gonna come out, big babi's gonna bat, and we don't have a lefty warming.

fuck you, girardi.

109 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:32 pm

112 pitches.

and there it is. tie game. 2 on, nobody out. NOW, there's a pitching change.

fire joe after the game. fuck it, fire him NOW.

110 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:35 pm

it's september, we have a billion pitchers in the pen and he leaves cc in at 100 pitches.

of course. fat fuck is up. righty pitcher. 3-run homer coming up. i have the game on mute.

why am i even typing at the banter? can't believe NO ONE is here...

111 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:36 pm

wow. 3 pitch strikeout...and a standing ovation? um, ok. fuck you, boston fans.

112 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:40 pm

pony fucker beats it out. : /

113 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:42 pm

parker's breaking pitches have actually looked good.

i still freaking hate his wind up.

and now a passed ball. i mean, why not?

here comes a 2-run single...

114 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:44 pm

good change.

parker (somehow) keeps it tied.

so, i guess we will lose via the walkoff...

115 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:46 pm

my guess is swarzak will be the losing pitcher of record.

116 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:48 pm

why swing at that, ronny?

117 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:49 pm

he didn't go!

118 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:51 pm

i fucking HATE that stoopid monstah. that was basically a fucking homerun. instead, it's a looooong single. feh.

119 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:51 pm

let's go, tex!

120 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:53 pm

bullshit, blue. well inside.

121 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:53 pm

FUCK YOU, markus.

122 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 9:58 pm

according to the main espn announcer, robby scott is THE greatest left handed reliever, ever of all-time.

123 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:03 pm

i'm guessing markus leads off with a homer of clippard.

124 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:06 pm

damn, he hits the ball hard. fuck.

game of inches.

125 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:08 pm

you need to throw the ball 60'6", tyler.

126 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:08 pm

and there you have it folks.

shoulda walked him. asshole ramirez wins the game...again.

insane.

127 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:10 pm

you can indeed predict baseball.

128 Boatzilla   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:14 pm

I gotta hand it to you Thelarmis, you are a one-man band, dog and pony show.

I haven't been able to bear the Banter over these past few debacles, but I have been lurking a bit.

When G.I. Joe takes Tanaka out and leaves Sabathia in, I have to give up. And without Castro and Hells Bells, it's not really the same team any more.

And last but not least, "Who's on first?"

129 Boatzilla   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:16 pm

I do like Jessica Mendoza, though. The lady in the booth. Man, she is slick.

130 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:22 pm

3 pitches, 2 outs.

weak ass fucking bullshit.

131 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:24 pm

why is ref batting? try austin. try a yankee fan from the stands...

132 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:25 pm

pathetic.

133 Boatzilla   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:29 pm

Tommy Layne vs. Jackie Bradely Jr.? Sounds like Friday Night Fights at the Garden.

134 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:36 pm

of course. markus with another diving catch.

FUCK!!!

135 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:39 pm

all comes down to a-rod gary.

136 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:40 pm

gary with another single.

137 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:40 pm

do it, tex. give us the lead.

ooh, a pinch stand there. wonder how mattpat's doing?

138 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:41 pm

what are you looking at, mark?

139 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:42 pm

oh, so you swing at THAT pitch?

140 thelarmis   ~  Sep 18, 2016 10:42 pm

game ovah. swept.
