Yanks put a hurting on the Blue Jays last night, led by two substantial taters by Gary Sanchez. C.C. looked good and the Yanks romped, 12-2.
Big Mike takes the hill tonight.
Never mind the Bad Guys:
Let’s Go Yank-ees!

Can we have a repeat of last night?
I see we can still waste a lead off three bagger
Crud
Fuck
I can't stand it
You do not appear to be enjoying this game all that much, rbj.
Time for some bourbon!
Vodka tonight
I loathe the Blue Jays.
Jeez.
Nope, not enjoying this at all
Damn, missed that
Comeback?
Homer homer happy night
Starting to enjoy this game now
jeez carter sucks
also, we're down to one reliable reliever
Yeah. 40 homers doesn't count for much when you otherwise K and can't field. Ron Deer like
Starting to not like this game again
40 hrs would be great
Well. All things considered getting out of that with only one run wa reasonable. Unfortunately it's going to be tough to scratch out two here.
Didi, just get on.
Hicks with another hit!
Funky delivery
Fuck
Great, now Headley is up...
Pathetic, Chase.
Not a double play, so a victory for Chase.
Crap, Carter
How so we not pinch hit for carter?
Oh, great - now Carter is up.
He better fucking tie the game here.
Crap. Surprised he didn't strike out though...
The only positive is he didn't K. Still, DFA when Austin comes back
Crap. Night all
OK, let's try this again.
Good start, Monty
Feeling a W today.
But, can't stay around for much.
Uh oh.
Come on, Jordan!
Hmm, don't like the walks
Better
I'll take it.
as terrible as carter is, at least he can catch the ball at 1b (stepping on the bag is another story). do we really not have anyone who can play 1b and put up any offense while we wait for austin and/or bird?
Hicks!
back to back Aaron doubles.
Ouch!
phew
Blegh, hurt catcher running is not pretty.
pitchers duel
just tuned in. pitch count is getting high for Monty.
can we make cone the manager?
Yeah, I'd trot Monty out to start, go batter by batter and if anyone gets on, yank him.
A third run would be real nice
I do approve of back to back doubles
Sigh, but not that
Yeah, Cone is rather awesome.
So are the waitresses in the fancy seat section behind home plate. Especially the blonde wearing all black!
Gary would've gunned him down.
[55] Yeah, I noticed that one.
Babe Gardner strikes again!
Gritny!
O, Holy Day!
5-zip
Matt joins the party
There she is again. This is my favorite game of the year! ;)
Stars!
Half dozen to nada
back to back! Love the boobirds
As does Starlin. I suspect Grilli won't be in Toronto tomorrow.
to back again!
WOW!!! This is *fun*
Or even the rest of today. Belly to belly to belly
Ledge him in!!
they oughta leave Grill in as punishment for his sins.
I'm looking forward to reading Katie Sharp's Yankeemetrics post about this at RAB on Monday!
Tommy Layne time?
Gio instead?
Why waste Clippard here? Coz he was already warming up?
Layne warming. I'd prefer to keep the shutout in tact.
Siddown (again) Joey Bat Flip Fucker!
Why the FUCK is Dellin warming up ??? : /
What the hell is Dellin up for, unless he hasn't pitched lately
Carter struck out. Huh.
OK, it's been a week.
Oh, no, I missed four homers in the eighth??
And a Katie Sharp reference!
We have 8 hits today, all of the extra base variety. 4 HR, 4 2B. The most hits in franchise history without a single. Pretty cool.
Yes, RI, you sure did. 3 of which were in a row!
I hope this won't be one of those closers unraveling due to a non save situation.
I want a shutout!
guess DB needs some work.
Uno
One down
Yeah, he hasn't pitched since last Saturday and hasn't even warmed up since Tuesday...
Not getting the calls, but Lettuce seems to be good at framing pitches.
Tulo is a pain in the rear.
Dos
Two down
This game is a nice half-birthday present!
Tres!!!
Nice win, folks. Cheers!
Three down! Fun game.
Yay!
love the optics of Gritty next to His Honor! have a great nite folks.
Time to turn on MLBN and relive it.
Poo Holes 600th HR a grand salami. 3,000 hits up next...
Also, Edinson Volquez tossed a no-no for Jose Fernandez's team on the birthday of former teammate Yodany Ventura. Baseball magic.
I guess no new thread, so let's just flip the odometer
Oh goody Gibbons annoy the home ump from the start
Doink
No harm
Hey, Belth, whaddya got, a thread shortage? Come on, yer killing us here, making us triple up!
Ouch, that slider. Yikes.
Looks like another pitching duel
Huh, Headley with the first hit.
And now a stolen base.
6 SBs for Headley
So far this season, RI. Not today. Yet...
Nice AB for Judge.
And a nice SB plus, too
Go Judge! Wheels!
Yay, a run!
Martty Day!!
I love how Aaron was wanting to take the bat from the ump. What a good guy!
Siddown, bat flip fucker
Nasty pitch
Safe! Run number two.
kind of fun watching the Canadian commercials. impressive pace by Sev.
Yup, I had a bad feeling about that.
ugh
this game just got annoying. nothing bothers me more than batters getting first base on a pitch that's just barely off home plate. no umpire enforces the actual rule. it's a joke, and i hate it just as much when it's a yankee batter.
phew!
need a run or three
why the hell is refsnyder playing?
Come on Gary, you're due
Fucker
clippard is so bad. he hung like 3 straight changeups to one of the best hitters in baseball.
wouldn't you know it's Don aldrin bobble head day at Rogers
came out wrong. Donaldson
[128] just looked at his stats and they're surprisingly good. still, watching him pitch does not inspire confidence. and he looks like clay aiken.
osuna is 1-0 with 10 saves in 11 appearances vs. the yanks.
Modammit! I hate losing this way
jeez. last 5 outs by swinging ks. At least the game was fast. time for some bbq action.
Well, the take away has to be that Severino has been awesome and continues to rock. I'll take it.
