John is absolutely bracing himself for the day David Robertson gives up a run

It will happen, The Master told Suzyn last night, a gathering darkness in his voice. He hoped it didn't happen soon, but it... will... happen.

You can predict baseball, afterall. And throughout David Robertson's enchanted three-K eighth, John chanted his new Robertson mantra at least three times. (Juju?) Someday, it will happen. In fact, John even predicted that someday, David will give up two, or maybe even three runs in an inning.

Chilling stuff, when the legendary Voice of the Yankees spends an entire inning with a Nostradamus rant about the looming plague: Two or three runs. At one point, he noted that Robertson's streak of scoreless innings, extending to last year, now stands as the equivalent of nearly three complete game shutouts. After a moment of contemplation, he clanged upon down his anvil of inevitability: Eventually, Suzyn, it will happen.

Yes, it will. Someday. The waters will cease to flow, and the loins of Mother Nature will turn barren. The Master has seen the future: David Robertson will not throw forever. It will happen.

But not if The Master's juju chant can forestall it.
