Official IT IS HIGH "We love you, juju gods" Sunday night game thread


Why do we bother? Jon Lester is pitching. He always kills us. The only question is whether he'll throw a perfect game, a mere no-hitter or maybe have an off-night and pitch just a shutout. Maybe we should change this to an NCIS: Los Angeles thread? Any bets that the cops will lose?

  1. NO SANCHEZ TONIGHT! (ONLY 2 HITS LAST NIGHT).... DIDN'T SEE THAT ONE COMING! ...JOE G. KEEPS US GUESSING!.......AND PISSED OFF.

    CAN'T POSSIBLY WIN TONIGHT.

  2. We have some time to kill... why doesn't the new Yankees stadium say "No Pepper Games" like the old one did, and is lax enforcement of pepper a cause of this dreadful Yankees spring?

  3. We can't win this. You hear me, Juju Gods? There's no way we can win this. AP

  4. The Yankees are going to have to play one heck of a game to grab a page in the papers tomorrow. All of this Harvey drama is guaranteed to snag both back pages and maybe even the front pages as well.

  5. I think Joe is worried about Sanchez being back a bit early from his injury and, he doesn't want Austin to go stale. He was playing really well.

    Our worry tonight is Luis: it looks freezing in Chicago ( note the coats on the fans ) and he may not be able to grip the ball. Beyond that, Holliday at first base? A recipe for disaster.

    Maybe we get an 8-0 lead and bring back Carter. I just don't see this.

    And I was blown away to hear that Tyler Austin is still three weeks away, at least.

  6. What is the Harvey drama? I saw he was suspended for three days ( big deal...pitchers get that much time, or
    more, between starts ).

    Did he beat up his girlfriend?

  7. Sevvy gave that ball a ride

  8. HARVEY IS A COMPLETE ASSHOLE....... ADRIANA LIMA DOESN'T REALIZE SHE IS GOING OUT WITH A CAR WASH ATTENDANT TO BE........ SHE WILL DUMP HIM SOON. (MAYBE SHE DID ALREADY, THAT'S WHY HE MISSED PRACTICE).....

    ReplyDelete
  9. SEVY DID GIVE IT A RIDE...... BUT IF I HAD MY DRUTHERS, PITCHERS WOULD NEVER EVER STEP UP TO THE PLATE AGAIN.

    ReplyDelete
  10. I'm with you on that. We have child labor laws, yet we make pitchers bat.

  11. On Judge's tripe. He said, "It is high, it is far, it is... caught."

    ReplyDelete
  12. Triple, not tripe. I'll be writing about Judge's tripe in a separate post.

  13. It's pretty clear the people who produce ESPN baseball don't like baseball. Maddons RV tour, the split screens, it's all shit. Broadcast the fucking game.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I cannot handle this. El Chapo better get his balls unknotted fast.

    ReplyDelete
  15. What a fucking asshole

    ReplyDelete
  16. I hope there's no pineapple on the dessert menu tonight.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I am assuming the position

    ReplyDelete
  18. MUSTANG...I WAS IN THE CAR AND SAID THE SAME THING TO MYSELF....THE MASTER PLUGGED THIS WEBSITE, (AGAIN)..... "IT IS HIGH IT IS FAR IT IS ...CAUGHT!"....."AND IT'S OFF HIS GLOVE"....... MY FRIEND WATCHING SAID THE GUYS GLOVE DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH THE BALL...LOL.... THE MASTER NEEDS LASER SURGERY.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I'M TELLING YOU..... I THINK THE MOST ENRAGING THING ABOUT GIRARDI IS THE RESTING OF OUR HOT, AND BEST PLAYERS..... I KNOW SANCHEZ CAME BACK FROM INJURY A COUPLE DAYS AGO, BUT I CAN'T HELP BUT FEEL WE WOULD HAVE WON THIS GAME LONG AGO, IF GARY SANCHEZ WAS IN OUR LINEUP.....AND IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CHAPMAN BLOWING THE GAME..... THE REAL "KICKER' FOR ME IS SANCHEZ WINDS UP COMING INTO THE GAME AND CATCH IN EXTRA INNINGS!....SO THE IDEA OF "RESTING" IS TOTALLY OUT THE WINDOW....THERE IS NO REST WHEN YOU PLAY ANYWAY....AM I RIGHT?

  20. Great morning. Breakfast with the Yankees.
    Just hope John and Suzyn don't catch a cold.

    Top of the 15th - 2 out. Great game.

    ReplyDelete
  21. "We may be witnessing the making of Holder".
    "Just like Andy Petitte; remember the game in Boston when he was a kid? They sent him down to stretch him out".

    ReplyDelete
  22. Shreve pitching bottom 16th.
    Torreyes last position player Joe had left and he is in too.

    ReplyDelete
  23. 44 Ks in game. MLB record.

  24. Today's quiz: When this game began, Yankees OF Aaron Judge was:

    A. Leading the league in HRs;
    B. Batting .320;
    C. 11 years old

    ReplyDelete
  25. And I believe Nick Swisher is up in the bullpen for the Yanks.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I'M STILL WATCHING THIS FUCKING GAME...
    HICKSIE WITH A BUNT SINGLE AND AN ERROR!
    LETS GO!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Top 18th..... bunting to victory????

    ReplyDelete
  28. I believe we have a new Yankee nickname: Aaron "Fuck Yeah!" Hicks.

    ReplyDelete
  29. WE GOT THE LEAD!!!!
    O GOD, IT'S BAEZ, SHWARBER, AND BRYANT NEXT INNING...SHIT.

  30. It wouldn't hurt to add on a run or two...ask any 1981 Rochester Red Wing what can happen if you don't.

    ReplyDelete
  31. HAHAHA... LOVE THE NICKNAME BERN....

    ReplyDelete
  32. The 1981 Rochester Red Wings were still playing when this game started ...

    ReplyDelete
  33. What a great win!

    ReplyDelete
  34. And so the Yankees and Cubs honor Ernie Banks by playing 2 today.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Except Chapman the bullpen was phenomenal.
    Fun morning - time to get to work.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Fell asleep in the 8th. Woke up in the 17th. The Master's warble never sounded so relieved.

    ReplyDelete
  37. WOW! I'm vacationing in Rome and can't believe I actually was able to wake up to catch this WIN, this brutal> fantastic WIIIIIIIIIIIIIN!

    ReplyDelete
  38. And the hero of the game was Starlin Castro ... who was 0-for-8.

    ReplyDelete
  39. JJ ... I was wondering what kind of winwarble the Master would have after that. He's getting up there in age, but he can still bring it in clutch spots.

  40. @Ken of Brooklyn:
    Europe can be great fun when it comes to late games!

  41. @DutchFan,
    I'll say, especially with a game like this!
    I'm thinking of starting a Kickstarter campaign to keep me in Roma for the rest of the season, me being out of the country seems to be extremely favorable to the JuJu gods, LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  42. Dutchfan,

    I'm in for $50. Just keep doing what you're doing.

    ReplyDelete
  43. @BernBabyBern: It had more energy than I figured it would at that point, but you can always tell when he's really done with the game when he lets the silence hang while he waits for Suzyn to "get her man."

    ReplyDelete
  44. OK, can I stand down from the position now?

    ReplyDelete
  45. @el duque:
    No need for money. Just trying to make up for Didi.

    ReplyDelete
  46. HOLDER AND SHREVE WERE MAGNIFICENT!

    SOMETHING SPECIAL GOING ON HERE GUYS!...I DON'T GIVE A SHIT WHAT DATE IT IS!
    NOBODY WE HAVE PLAYED SO FAR HAS BEEN FAR BETTER THAN US, NOBODY.
    LETS TRUST OUR EYES!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Something special IS going on here, I absolutely agree AllCaps Anon!

    And I keep repeating my own personal mantra for JuJu Gods appeasement, something along the lines of 'This season has already given me more that I ever could have expected, so from here on out, whatever happens is juuuuUUUUust fine by me" (WINK WINK!)
