I think my wife has some medical texts, because she's in the healthcare field. I'll see if I can look up "something" so I can get a better idea of where Hicks is going to be for the rest of the series.
Sonny Gray and Lance Lynn sound like the names of a jobber wrestling tag team who weigh about 170 pounds each and are about to get destroyed by the Road Warriors.
Stanton sucks. I don't care how many meaningless HRs he hits, or his occasional high average streaks. We need a consistent hitter in that slot, not him.
Why does coming to New York cause some players to morph into Dave Kingman? I mean, Stanton wasn't exactly Rod Carew in Miami, but he wasn't a 210+K guy either.
We are not executing in the clutch. At all. We have had so many opportunities tonight. We are beating ourselves. I hate when we beat ourselves off when we should be fucking the opposition
We have not execute in the clutch for almost 10 years. "Clutch" is the word that does NOT describe this team. It is one of those intangible things that does not appear in binders, although I'm sure someone will point to some strange acronym that purports to represent "clutch," "heart," "guts," "balls" or "money player."
13bit!!!! My bosom awaits you and your head!!! My fucking Siamese cat is screaming himself hoarse!! He is the stupidest animal I have had!! He is blissfully free of the ravages of intelligence!!!!!!
You're very right, 13bit. Because we have no one to teach them how to perform in the clutch. Or what to do in clutch time. Make contact. Move runners. You know what I'm talking about. Baseball.
The dink broadcaster says that "you couldn't ask for a better lead off hitter here than Gardner!" Um, yeah, someone who gets on base a little more often would be nice.
You know, el Duque's comic "The Wrong Earth" features parallel universes, Alpha and Omega. Just curious ... is there a universe where Stanton doesn't strike out more often than most people blink?
FOR YEARS, WE WERE OUTHIT AND OUT-"CLUTCHED" BY BOSTON'S CLEANUP HITTER COMPARED TO OUR CLEANUP HITTER.
FOR YEARS, THEY HAD PAPI, AND WE HAD AROD.
BIG MISMATCH IN THE PLAYOFFS.
PAPI WOULD GET CLUTCH HIT AFTER CLUTCH HIT, AS AROD CONTINUED TO SHIT THE BED.
NOW, HERE WE ARE YEARS LATER, AND THEY HAVE JD MARTINEZ, AND WE HAVE THIS STIFF GIANCARLO WHATEVER THE FUCK HIS NAME IS.
ONCE AGAIN, BIG MISMATCH.
IT'S NOT ABOUT THE MONEY, BUT WHEN YOUR CLEANUP HITTER IS MAKING $300 MILLION DOLLARS (LIKE AROD WAS, AND STANTON IS NOW), AND THE BASES ARE LOADED WITH NO OUTS IN A PLAYOFF GAME, YOU WOULD THINK YOU CAN GET SOME KIND OF RETURN ON THE INVESTMENT.
....BUT NOT FROM OUR CLEANUP HITTERS IN THE PLAYOFFS...NOPE.
NOT FOR A LONG TIME.
THINKING ABOUT HOW STANTON HAS ANOTHER 10 YEARS WITH US, MAKES ME WANT TO COMMIT SUICIDE.
AS WE CONTINUED TO GET RUNNERS ON BASE, AND MOUNT OUR COMEBACK, AS THE CROWD BECAME MORE TENSE AND QUIET, I ACTUALLY FELT LIKE WE WERE LEADING, AND BOSTON WAS BEHIND.
THAT WAS UNTIL STANTON STRUCK OUT WITH THE BASES LOADED AND NO OUTS.
RIGHT THEN, I KNEW IT MEANT THE GAME.
AS I FLEW INTO A NEAR RAGE, I EVEN GUARANTEED MYSELF, THAT IF THE GAME WAS CLOSE IN THE 9TH AND HE FACED KIMBREL, HE WOULD HAVE NO SHOT HITTING HIM, AND WOULD STRIKE OUT.
BOY, THAT PREDICTION WAS HARD TO SEE COMING, RIGHT?
I'M A REAL KRESKIN, HUH?
TOMORROW IS A MUST WIN. (FORGET ABOUT COMING HOME WINNING 2 THEN GOING BACK TO BOSTON TO WIN A 3RD STRAIGHT GAME). AIN'T HAPPENING.
WE CAN WIN 2 AT THE STADIUM, BUT IT WILL BE LIKE HOUSTON LAST YEAR. WE WILL FALL SHORT.
Happy Birthday John M. We all become more disgusting as we age, but that's okay as long as we have someone we love and who loves us back. Like me and Buck's Puckered Hemorrhoids.
I'll never criticize Cashman again if he can convince (accent on con) the Dodgers to trade for Stanton. A minor-leaguer back would suffice and then we can sign Harper who at least makes contact with a baseball often enough befitting someone with talent to be a major-leaguer. Los Angeles really wanted to get Giancarlo before the Yankees snagged him.
I really want the world to know about this great man who brought back happiness into my life again after my husband left me and the kids 3 years ago for another women online when i contacted Dr Believe he cast a love spell for me within 48 hours my ex husband start calling me and begging for forgiveness for everything that have happened between us. I was so happy to have my family back together with love again here is the email of Dr Believe via believelovespelltemple@gmail.com a man with the great powers you can also call him or add him on Whats-app: +2348156148821 God bless you I am very grateful for your help in my marriage.

See ya, Sale.
ReplyDeleteOnce again we’re one swing from turning this back into a game.
ReplyDeleteMiddle relief is their weakness.
ReplyDeleteWonder if anyone will identify the photo.
ReplyDeleteGardner scores!!! Voit!!!!
ReplyDeleteBuckner?
ReplyDeleteBuckner...
ReplyDeleteLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUke!
ReplyDeleteVoit is going to Wally Pipp Bird.
ReplyDeleteBIG GIANT HEAD !!! BIG GIANT HEAD !!!
ReplyDeleteBIG GIANT HEAD !!! BIG GIANT HEAD !!!
Buckner.
ReplyDeleteADROIT!!!
ReplyDeleteBGH!!
ReplyDeleteAt least the Yanks are showing signs of life...
ReplyDeleteJohn sez, Fenway.
ReplyDeleteI get up to pee and Luke what happens....
ReplyDeleteRun scores, but shit.
ReplyDeleteOooh, APP.
ReplyDeleteOK DIDI!
ReplyDeleteBetter than a DP, but that sucked.
ReplyDeleteDiDiJuJuDiDiJuJuDiDiJuJuDiDiJuJuDiDiJuJuDiDiJuJuDiDiJuJu!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteNot giving that pitch to Pawtucket.
ReplyDeleteIs there any run-scoring play more deflating than a GIDP?
ReplyDeleteHahahahahahahahaha!!!
ReplyDeleteThis guy sucks.
ReplyDelete49 footer there
ReplyDeleteOh dear lord, let's hope this whole rally doesn't rest on ice cream sandwich.
ReplyDeleteBoston, suck my fucking balls!
ReplyDeleteThere we go! Another hook.
ReplyDeleteThis whole rally rests on Ice Cream Sandwich.
ReplyDeleteWow could you imagine ICS...nah
ReplyDeleteOh, I don’t know if I can bear to watch ICS here.
ReplyDeleteICS whatever you do don't melt
ReplyDeleteReport from Suzyn ... Aaron Hicks has a "right hamstring something."
ReplyDeleteThe doctors are looking at Hicks. Wonder if he's looking back.
ReplyDeleteBig Daddy Ice Cream Sandwich strides to the plate, like a Collossus, the Fens tremble at his giggling approach!
ReplyDeleteSuch fragile players.
ReplyDeleteBall 4, baby.
ReplyDeleteLoaded up.
ReplyDeleteC'mon, Gleyber.
ReplyDeleteGood AB. Didn't force the issue
ReplyDeleteHere comes Gleyber!
ReplyDeleteI told ya, the soft underbelly.
ReplyDeleteJust make contact. Bat on ball.
ReplyDeleteWell, let it be known that it was at least made interesting for a while here.
ReplyDeleteFor those of you in the chat room with formal medical training ... How long does a "hamstring something" usually keep a player out?
ReplyDeleteBe patient here, rookie.
ReplyDeleteYou said it, Steve.
ReplyDeleteIf it was Mantle, they'd just tape him up and he'd play tomorrow.
ReplyDelete3-2
ReplyDeleteCome on Gleyber!
ReplyDeleteBBB, it could be day to day or a 60 day DL, depending on severity of the 'something'
ReplyDeleteFUCK!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat sucked
ReplyDeleteFuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuccccccccccccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkk.
ReplyDeleteAh, shit
ReplyDeleteDammit.
ReplyDeleteGleyber played that like a Yankee veteran.
ReplyDeleteI think my wife has some medical texts, because she's in the healthcare field. I'll see if I can look up "something" so I can get a better idea of where Hicks is going to be for the rest of the series.
ReplyDeleteIt was interesting. My interest has collapsed into sullen disappointment.
ReplyDeleteOh good, Sonny Lynn is back out. ... I mean Lance Gray. ... I mean ... ah, fukkit.
ReplyDeleteFuckity fuck the fucking fucks
ReplyDeleteSonny Gray and Lance Lynn sound like the names of a jobber wrestling tag team who weigh about 170 pounds each and are about to get destroyed by the Road Warriors.
ReplyDeleteHave no fear. Joe Kelly will be in soon enough.
ReplyDeleteShit, two out walk so Mook can come up.
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah! Kelly sucks. Even my cousins who like the Sox say that.
ReplyDeleteWish Lance-o-lynn would calm the fuck down and end this inning.
ReplyDeleteI hope we can avoid Birdman Kimbrall.
ReplyDeleteOr is it Kimball, like Green Acres...
Hate those stupid, senseless posers
ReplyDeleteBye, ya mook
ReplyDeleteOK there's a wide one for us. Kept Benintendi from coming to the plate with two on.
ReplyDeleteShould've scored another run or two last inning. But still, nine outs to go.
ReplyDeleteCutch is I what he was, but I kind of like him.
ReplyDeleteIsn't what he was
ReplyDeleteJudge!
ReplyDeleteWe are set up now. Must be Barnes coming in and not Kelly. Shit.
ReplyDeleteGardner ready for his close-up?
ReplyDeleteYeah, fucking Barnes.
ReplyDeleteC'mon, Brett.
ReplyDeleteWild one
ReplyDeleteCome on Brett. One more "Gardy goes uardy" For Old Times Sake.
ReplyDeleteExcellent! Time for Boston to choke
ReplyDeleteAlmost another wild pitch
ReplyDelete"Yardy" ... Fat thumbs, small phone.
ReplyDeleteLoaded up!
ReplyDeleteBullpen imploding
ReplyDeleteGood AB! If they bring in Porcello that lets us know they don't trust their BP
ReplyDeletePorcello is warming up
ReplyDeleteWE HAVE TO EXECUTE!
ReplyDeleteMan, can Giancarlo please get a nice fat pitch like he did against Oakland? Please?
ReplyDeleteTime for Stanton’s Yankee Moment.
ReplyDelete(The good kind.)
He missed that one
ReplyDeleteThat wasn't his moment ...
ReplyDeleteAnother bad pitch strikeout. Fuck him.
ReplyDeleteLuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuke!
ReplyDeleteAll season with him, only a few weeks of good hitting.
ReplyDeleteGardy slide plates one.
ReplyDeleteI'll take it!
ReplyDeleteGreat slide. Wily veteran.
ReplyDeleteTime for Sir Didi to be King Didi ....
ReplyDeleteWile E. Veteran
ReplyDeleteLol
ReplyDeleteFucking bums
ReplyDeleteNeeded one more run. Damn
ReplyDeleteWell, if we keep chipping away, we'll catch them somewhere around the 14th.
ReplyDeleteShit
ReplyDeleteStanton sucks. I don't care how many meaningless HRs he hits, or his occasional high average streaks. We need a consistent hitter in that slot, not him.
ReplyDeleteWe need more Miggys, less John Carlos.
ReplyDeleteWile E. Veteran. Nice! That makes CC our Craft E. Lefty
ReplyDeleteI'll be here all night
ReplyDeleteI'm already tired of this advert with the Pearl Jams.
ReplyDeleteJohn and Suzyn are castigating the three schmucks who couldn't get a hit with bases loaded no one out.
ReplyDeleteAt least Voit got a run in.
ReplyDeleteWe should be up 7-5. Bedshitters.
ReplyDeleteAs well they should. We should be ahead now
ReplyDeleteGotta score more than one with bases full and no one out.
ReplyDeleteNOW!!!! MAXIMUM FUCKING JUJU!!!!! UNLEASH UNLEASH!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy does coming to New York cause some players to morph into Dave Kingman? I mean, Stanton wasn't exactly Rod Carew in Miami, but he wasn't a 210+K guy either.
ReplyDeletePorcello and Asshole Birdman coming up. Low odds.
ReplyDeleteI like Craft E. Lefty
ReplyDeleteNO TIME, NO TIME, UNLEASH ALL THE JUJU UJUJ JuJu jUjU YOU HAVE!!!! MAXIMUM EFFORT!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBern, remember Curtis Granderson? Good spray hitter with some power. Then 40 HRs and .240. terrible.
ReplyDeleteThat was almost a disaster...
ReplyDeleteOK, why did Britton apparently throw a 98 MPH slider to Voit at first?
ReplyDeleteCAVORT! GAMBOL! INCHOATE WARBLE! WARBLEWARBLEPANTSONHEADPANTSONHEAD!!!!
ReplyDeletePanties on head, man! Get a grip!
ReplyDeleteYes, Triple B. That's exactly what Britton did. A fucking bowling ball slider to Voit.
ReplyDeleteDo I have any more Percocets? Let me check...
ReplyDeleteThere will be no Joe Kelly. Cora knows better
ReplyDeleteJohn, Jason Giambi did the same thing. He hit .340 one year with Oakland. He comes to NY, within 2 years he's hitting .240 and wearing golden thongs.
ReplyDeleteYep. I remember.
ReplyDeleteThe star rooks have a bad case of nerves.
ReplyDeleteMiggy has to learn to walk. Lousy OBP relative to BA.
ReplyDeleteWatching Kimbrall is worse than facing him.
ReplyDeleteJerk.
Let's clip the Birdman's wings
ReplyDeleteHe's the only pitcher in MLB who has to rip a fart before getting a sign
ReplyDeleteShit, shit, shit.
ReplyDeleteDamn.
ReplyDelete"Whoever can surprise well must conquer."
ReplyDeleteWe are not executing in the clutch. At all. We have had so many opportunities tonight. We are beating ourselves. I hate when we beat ourselves off when we should be fucking the opposition
ReplyDeleteWhat I am drinking.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.cocchi.it/cocktails/corpse-rejuvenator/
You said it, APP. Exactly.
ReplyDeleteWe have not execute in the clutch for almost 10 years. "Clutch" is the word that does NOT describe this team. It is one of those intangible things that does not appear in binders, although I'm sure someone will point to some strange acronym that purports to represent "clutch," "heart," "guts," "balls" or "money player."
ReplyDeleteBad week to stop shooting battery acid.
ReplyDeleteWinny, that would go good with my oxycodone right about now
ReplyDeleteOh yeah. Anything is good with oxy.
ReplyDeleteLol!!
13bit!!!! My bosom awaits you and your head!!! My fucking Siamese cat is screaming himself hoarse!! He is the stupidest animal I have had!! He is blissfully free of the ravages of intelligence!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're very right, 13bit. Because we have no one to teach them how to perform in the clutch. Or what to do in clutch time. Make contact. Move runners. You know what I'm talking about. Baseball.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.cocchi.it/cocktails/corpse-rejuvenator/
ReplyDeleteWhere have all the homeruns gone
ReplyDeleteLong time passing...
Win, you have all those esoteric ingredients on hand? I'm impressed.
ReplyDeleteAPP!!!
ReplyDeletehttps://www.cocchi.it/cocktails/corpse-rejuvenator/
Fuck you, Kimbrall.
ReplyDeleteJUDGE!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteALLMUTHERFUCKINRISEMUTHERFUCKERS!!! ALLMUTHERFUCKINRISEMUTHERFUCKERS!!! ALLMUTHERFUCKINRISEMUTHERFUCKERS!!! ALLMUTHERFUCKINRISEMUTHERFUCKERS!!! ALLMUTHERFUCKINRISEMUTHERFUCKERS!!!
ReplyDeleteI love it but I hate it. Too little too late. We need baserunners!!!!
ReplyDeleteGardy, let's go
ReplyDeleteWell, there’s one.
ReplyDeleteFuck Kimberly rough in the mouth on his knees in the shower.
ReplyDeleteShit.
ReplyDeleteA lemon is not an "esoteric ingredient." 🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋
ReplyDeleteI hate the fucking beard and the fucking asshole birdman stance. Repulsive.
ReplyDeleteAside from the lemon...
ReplyDeleteOnly drama with Stanton is how many pitches it’ll take for him to strike out.
ReplyDeleteStanton sucks
ReplyDeleteFucking Stanton fucking sucks.
ReplyDeleteThe dink broadcaster says that "you couldn't ask for a better lead off hitter here than Gardner!" Um, yeah, someone who gets on base a little more often would be nice.
ReplyDeleteFUck. Stanton looked like one of those Italian piazza statues in that AB
ReplyDeleteC'mon Luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuke!
ReplyDeleteNO TIME, NO TIME, UNLEASH ALL THE JUJU UJUJ JuJu jUjU YOU HAVE!!!! MAXIMUM EFFORT!!!!! GIVEALLTHEJUJUYOUHSVE!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOk, .... NOW!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteShitfuck. Should've won. Pathetic.
ReplyDeleteOh man. Bad bad loss. Lost opportunities everywhere you look.
ReplyDeleteFuck.
ReplyDeleteTomorrow, men.
ReplyDeleteHey, how come there's no women on this site? Are we so unattractive?
Wasted opportunities...
ReplyDeleteYou know, el Duque's comic "The Wrong Earth" features parallel universes, Alpha and Omega. Just curious ... is there a universe where Stanton doesn't strike out more often than most people blink?
ReplyDeleteJohn M, you are unattractive in ways you will never grok.
ReplyDeleteTomorrow. David Price. We got him. Or else.
ReplyDeleteBut we live you for your service tonight. A womanly bosom awaits you, although it may just be on a hairy sweaty chubby dude.
ReplyDeleteToday's game summary:
ReplyDeleteGotta score more than one with bases full and no one out.
Thanks Ruf. You're a big fucking help.
ReplyDeleteCan you write the epitath for my tombstone? "TWW was great except for the death thing." . YOU'RE NOT HELPING!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, well I had to watch the fucking game and shouldn't have.
ReplyDelete...and I'm not good with a chisel, so get someone else to write your epitaph.
P.S. Suzyn agrees with me in the postgame.
ReplyDeleteI may be unattractive, but my wife still likes me. And she's younger and cute.
ReplyDelete8 minutes to my 63rd birthday. Have many drinks, as if you needed the excuse.
I FUCKIN' HAD TO FUCKIN' WATCH THE FUCKIN' GAME TOO !!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteFucking sad for fucking all of us. We'll get these assholes...
ReplyDeleteI'M BESIDE MYSELF WITH ANGER AND DISGUST....
ReplyDeleteFOR YEARS, WE WERE OUTHIT AND OUT-"CLUTCHED" BY BOSTON'S CLEANUP HITTER COMPARED TO OUR CLEANUP HITTER.
FOR YEARS, THEY HAD PAPI, AND WE HAD AROD.
BIG MISMATCH IN THE PLAYOFFS.
PAPI WOULD GET CLUTCH HIT AFTER CLUTCH HIT, AS AROD CONTINUED TO SHIT THE BED.
NOW, HERE WE ARE YEARS LATER, AND THEY HAVE JD MARTINEZ, AND WE HAVE THIS STIFF GIANCARLO WHATEVER THE FUCK HIS NAME IS.

WE CAN WIN 2 AT THE STADIUM, BUT IT WILL BE LIKE HOUSTON LAST YEAR. WE WILL FALL SHORT.
WHOLE SEASON IS TOMORROW.
PRODUCTION MATTERS.
CONTACT MATTERS.
MOVING RUNNERS MATTERS.
ESPECIALLY IN THESE GAMES.
CAN OUR CLEANUP HITTER EVER GET A CLUTCH HIT?
John, Alles Gute zum Geburtstag! Wow - I'm old enough to be your... younger brother.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, John M. Hope you get a Yankee win as a gift.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday John M. We all become more disgusting as we age, but that's okay as long as we have someone we love and who loves us back. Like me and Buck's Puckered Hemorrhoids.
ReplyDeleteSING IT, ALL CAPS. SING IT.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the birthday wishes! Anon is so right, it hurts. Badly.
