I worked in Canada quite a bit late 90's early 2000's. Plus my brother and sister-in-law ran a dirty dancing type resort in Saugerties for a while. I'd stay there when I was working in North Jersey. All my material is stolen (unless you like it, then those jokes are mine).
Any else streaming the game on At Bat? Some time ago YouTube decided I speak Spanish and started playing about 50% Spanish language ads. I blame listening to Ricky Ricardo. Now what I can’t explain is why At Bat now keeps trying to feed me “Beyond Black History Month”. This ad is preferable to what I used to hear for “Mother Country Radicals with Zayd Dohrn” but still not really my thing. But I guess I’m asking… did MLB decide I’m black based on my browsing history, place of birth in Orange NJ, and other stereotypes, or is everyone getting that ad?
JM - Yes horrible clock management. First time this year I've questioned Daboll.
Beau - What is beyond? Is it like another dimension? Also, perhaps since your name is Beauregard (like the confederate general) the algorithm is trolling you.
It’s Beauregard like the obscure character from Mame. Figured since this was a John Sterling blog that show tune references were de regueur. Isn’t that enough to get me, maybe, a Metamucil ad or something?
Giants and Cowgirls tied. At 6-6! Lots of bad play.by both teams. Jones looks like the best player on the field. No seriously. Quick observation : Giants get no YAC. None. Shepherd goes down like he was shot ar first contact.
Wow, Barkley just broke one for a 36 yd TD. JINTS up by 7.
Got it. And Jackson isn't Stonewall it's the town from the Johnny Cash/June Carter song. and Pickett isn't the charge guy it's the type of fences in The Music Man.
I miss the Hebrew Home ads. That was before they were targeted. When you play an archived game, you get all the WFAN ads. Back in the day I used to love hearing familiar things like Pathmark or even… the Shop Rite Can-Can Sale.
The live spots they can’t change, Coupa Coupa Coupa. We installed Coupa where I work, it’s a been a joke. The owner wanted software so if one factory bought a 1/2 hp motor with a 3/4” shaft and 3-phase and it was $500 and never broke, and some other plant found one for $450 and it broke in six months, we’d know which one to buy. Coupa attempts to assign pretty much anything you can buy into commodity codes and then show you best price from the vendors you have onboarded. We’ve managed to onboard three in two years. The commodity code for electric motors is ridiculously broad, so you can’t compare important specs. It works fine if you’re ordering printer paper but it’s other wise useless.
Didn't watch the game, but let me get this right: they walked Judge twice. But we insisted on pitching to Vladdy, Jr., with two out in the bottom of the 10th?
O-kay.
The home run hunt has now officially become psychotic. And Boone needs to go.
I really liked your work. The comparison you have attached in your article is very helpful for me. Keep it up and share more. Now it's time to avail Hi Vis Bomber jacket for more information.

Clinch your buttocks?
I'm thinking Ali-Frazier.
Rizzo's batting stance looks different. more straight up. maybe because of his back.
Q: Why do Canadian couples do it doggy style?
A: So they can both watch the hockey game.
He'll be here all week, folks. Try the veal.
Stanton in post-season form.
It's so easy to get Stanton out. He has the same swing plane every time. Just don't throw it in the swing plane and he misses it.
Has any team ever won a World Series with half or more of the lineup batting under .225?
JM,

White Sox, hitless wonders.
Ralph, baby!!!!
That was some team, Rufus. The pitching was incredible, and they could bunt. Unlike any modern team.
The Giants aren't undefeated they just haven't lost yet.
How many runs we going to give up this inning?
IKF muffed, now Sevvy in trouble.
And another guy admiring his not quite home run.
Well, the error sucked, but Severino otherwise didn't look bad at all. That's good to see.
Yep, he was pretty good. Giants losing, but it's early and only 3-0.
The error was scored a hit, which was home team pandering at its worst.
Kay is getting his calls wrong like Sterling does. But he's annoying.
I figured Donaldson would hit into a DP, but he struck out. A productive at bat.
why is stanton in the middle of the lineup?
Why is Stanton *in* the lineup?
Hopeless. He’s utterly hopeless.
Stanton is heavy into sucktown.
Giants got away with obvious pass interference and Dallas only got three. Terrible umping.
JM - reffing... reffing

“…although it’s been said many times, many waaays..”
Stanton Sucks.
That’s weird, Beau…you must have triggered some kind of algorithm.
A few months ago I kept getting pop-ups for Asian porn. Can’t imagine why…
Beau, you're obviously black and Hispanic and the algos have found you. Stop denying it.
Beau,
Do you get Kars for Kids in spanish?
I use mlb.tv, but get the same fucking ads over and over. They are obviously not tracking me, since I don't get any ads from Czechoslovakian websites.
On an unrelated note, I just noticed Trivino's first name is Luigi. So the Yankees have a Super Mario and a Luigi.
However, I still don't know why I get ads for igloo outbuildings.
I'm waiting for Kars for Kids in Navajo. That I'd like to hear.
Giants terrible time management, no time out called and they have all three. Totally weird.
I apologize for the first half of the Giants game. I promise I won't watch any more of it.
Wow so you aren’t getting Beyond Black History Month Podcast? That’s dangerous territory for the algorithm. I get this ad pretty much every inning.
Beau,
Just be grateful it's not rubber fetish for bears sites. I heard puckered gets those ads all the time.
The Maris family must be getting sick and goddam tired of ballgames every night.
JM - Yes horrible clock management. First time this year I've questioned Daboll.
Beau - What is beyond? Is it like another dimension? Also, perhaps since your name is Beauregard (like the confederate general) the algorithm is trolling you.
They're in Toronto?
the cowboys just keep beating Neal.
Sterl is commenting on the "hit" error.
That one will have to be reversed after the game.
It’s Beauregard like the obscure character from Mame. Figured since this was a John Sterling blog that show tune references were de regueur. Isn’t that enough to get me, maybe, a Metamucil ad or something?
Apparently Beyond means months other than February. They say something like “Are you tired of only hearing about Black History only in, oh, February?”
It’s fine but literally every inning. EVERY inning.
Ooooh extra innings, so I get an extra Beyond Black History Month ad!

Beau,
Hebrew home! It's like a college campus!
I’m just pleasantly surprised that the Giants are going to outscore the Yankees tonight.
Bader returning to form. Judge working the crowd.

So yeah, don’t buy what Suzyn is selling.
Here comes Judge after a poor AB by Trevino. The BJ’s are crazy if they pitch to Judge.
Things are getting kinda exciting.
Excepting the Yankees 14 strikeouts.
That’s his entire name! Sorry it was our high school musical one year I was on stage crew and I’ve had it stuck in my head for decades.

LOL!!!! Mea Culpa Maxima!
Jilly Rizzo
that sucked

where do we send Boone?
How about we send Boone into the tree chipper?

Who else prefers Best Services commentary to Barney’s?
I prefer Dr. Ulu's commentary over puckered's.
I caught a brief scent, a waft on the wind if you will, of BO and mom's basement. But it's gone now. Perhaps it was a figment. Or alcohol withdrawal?
Nah. Can't be that. I haven't stopped drinking.
Fuck.
