Don’t Be Cruel

Quick in a Slow Way

April has been far from cruel for the Yanks so far. They won again last night, this time beating the White Sox, 7-4. Jordan Montgomery was solid again, and a pair of 3-run home runs (Matt Holliday, Aaron Judge) did the trick.

Happy?

Happy

2 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 6:18 pm

Good start, Sevvy

3 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 6:37 pm

Crap. At least it only counts for one

4 RIYank   ~  Apr 18, 2017 6:57 pm

Missed the beginning, and probably can't watch much at all this evening.
But I believe the bats will come alive. Soon, please?

5 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:05 pm

Sevvy pitching well. Too early to mention we're being no hit

6 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:06 pm

I'll be happy with another solid Severino start .... so far, so good.

7 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:08 pm

There ya go. Still being shut out though

8 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:09 pm

No no-no!

9 RIYank   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:19 pm

Tried to make me go all hitless, I said "No no-no"

10 RIYank   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:31 pm

Oh, come on. E6.

11 RIYank   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:32 pm

Thank you very much for the out.
Idiots. Morons. Completely deserved that.

12 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:32 pm

Thank you, mighty clean up hitter

13 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:33 pm

Aw shit

14 RIYank   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:34 pm

Oh well.
There goes the streak, huh?

15 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:36 pm

That was one of the worst E6 gaffes I've seen. Fuck!

16 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:36 pm

9 more outs y'all.

17 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:37 pm

I'm sorry, but why is this team wasting a minute playing Pete Kozma?

18 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:39 pm

Well, that sucked a big fat Kozma ...

19 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:40 pm

Good job, me. Need base cloggers

20 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:41 pm

[17] His impeccable defense. Sigh.

21 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:41 pm

Sigh

22 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:54 pm

Only 69 pitches by Gonzalez? He's gonna get a Maddux at this rate.

23 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 18, 2017 7:56 pm

So technically Romine could have let that sac bunt pop up drop and started an easy 2-5-4 double play. That would be quite bush league, however.

24 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:01 pm

Severino holding his velocity late into the game, which is good.

25 RIYank   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:01 pm

[23] Infield Fly Rule, I believe. No?

26 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:03 pm

[25] No, because . . . ?

27 RIYank   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:04 pm

I have no idea.
Did Michael or Al explain something and I missed it? I stopped listening to them.

28 RIYank   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:08 pm

Oh, maybe the home plate ump didn't declare it?

29 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:08 pm

They discussed it, but no real explanation

30 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:11 pm

Wow, he gone!

31 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:15 pm

The booth said earlier that a catcher catching a pop up with runners on base could not be declared an infield fly. Where's Cone when we need him?

32 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:17 pm

Little bingo!

33 cult of basebaal   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:18 pm

Hmmmm ... don't want Hammer Time!

34 seamus   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:19 pm

I think they said a bunt couldn't be called an infield fly? I'm not sure

35 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:20 pm

Grrr

36 RIYank   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:22 pm

Oh, huh, that's true. I just looked at the official rule and it does say "except for a bunt".

37 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:23 pm

Got away with one there

38 RIYank   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:24 pm

Exciting.

39 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:24 pm

Rats

40 RIYank   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:25 pm

Ah, well.
It was exciting.

41 rbj   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:25 pm

Night all

42 RIYank   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:26 pm

I got to see a large part of the game, anyway! Didn't expect to.

43 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:31 pm

We may not see another 8 game win streak for a few years. That was fun while it lasted. Gary and Didi will be warming up just in time for Memorial Day.

44 seamus   ~  Apr 18, 2017 8:32 pm

It's hard to complain after eight straight wins. Severino looking good is a real plus for the season if it holds.

45 Boatzilla   ~  Apr 18, 2017 9:09 pm

[9] Brilliant!

Why the hell wasn't Headley playing? Perhaps Clueless Joe figured he was too hot and needed to cool him down. Grrr.

Well, if there's any bright spot beside Severino's excellent outing, it's that maybe we won't have to hear Stuttering Leiter for a while....or ever again.
