The Martian Has Landed

Hey, at least it should be entertaining.

But of course, can't score from second on a two-out hit.

Wait, wait...Tigers' pitcher hits Pereira with a pitch with the bases loaded and Stanton DOES manage to make it home. Who said he was through?; August 30, 2023 at 6:52 PM
HoraceClarke66 said...: Another of those umps who makes one long for a robot strike caller. Detroit's catcher pulls every low slider up into the strike zone and the ump falls for it, every time.; August 30, 2023 at 6:53 PM
HoraceClarke66 said...: Boy, does Peraza stink. Sorry to see it.; August 30, 2023 at 6:55 PM
AboveAverage said...: Need five runs to win this game.

Nudge Nudge

AboveAverage said...: Ok just one more; August 30, 2023 at 7:29 PM
AboveAverage said...: According to my calculations, we have scored enough runs to win today’s game.

ThuuuuuuuuuuYunkeeez Weeeener!; August 30, 2023 at 8:16 PM
AboveAverage said...: Hey RooferUs - where is everybody?; August 30, 2023 at 8:20 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: First, I was ordering a magic TV box. Then, I was eating dinner. Then I had to convince MLB.tv that I was in Bratislava, so it wouldn't be blacked out.

I see the solo HR train has been running. Jogginson with another meaningless HR. Doubt I'll suffer through more. There's McHale's Navy reruns on.; August 30, 2023 at 8:28 PM
AboveAverage said...: Magic TV Box? And here I already thought they WERE magic…..; August 30, 2023 at 8:41 PM
AboveAverage said...: Maybe Carl can score you the CW?; August 30, 2023 at 9:03 PM
ranger_lp said...: Watching Detroit is a snorefest…; August 30, 2023 at 9:08 PM
ranger_lp said...: From X:

If Oswald Peraza (23 yrs old), Everson Pereira (22), Anthony Volpe (22) and Jasson Dominguez (20) all start together in a game this weekend, it will be 1st time the Yankees have 4 position players age 23 or younger in same starting lineup since Sept. 18, 1969; August 30, 2023 at 9:13 PM
ranger_lp said...: Yankees win…; August 30, 2023 at 9:21 PM
DickAllen said...: and if I hear one more time how the Yankees won their first season series since July...

and If I hear one more time how Cole was masterful even without his best stuff...

I'm going to keep repeating to myself: "It's the Tigers. The Tigers."; August 30, 2023 at 9:24 PM
Kevin said...: These callups are part of a nefarious agenda. If they look at ALL promising Hal will claim that he doesn't need to increase payroll (at least for positional players). Watch and see... And don't forget the old bromide, 'don't pay too much attention to players called up in September' (there's another half to the saying, it has slipped my mind Dave. I can feel it.).; August 30, 2023 at 9:30 PM
AboveAverage said...: “This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it.”; August 30, 2023 at 9:41 PM
HoraceClarke66 said...: Interesting stat, ranger!

And those four guys were Ron Blomberg, Frank Tepedino, John Ellis, and Thurman Munson. Hmmm...well, could have been worse!; August 30, 2023 at 10:45 PM
AboveAverage said...: You’re right, Hoss.

It could be raining; August 30, 2023 at 10:47 PM
HoraceClarke66 said...: Hey, if one of the four guys we play turns out to be a Munson, we're ahead of the game.; August 30, 2023 at 11:48 PM
HoraceClarke66 said...: By the by, Torrents lost the game for Texas by issuing a walk and hitting a batter to force in a run in the bottom of the 10th.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah.; August 30, 2023 at 11:51 PM
BTR999 said...: What number for JD. He wore 7 in the minors, no can do that here.
How ‘bout 77?
88 for Wells?; August 31, 2023 at 12:08 AM
Joe Formerlyof Brooklyn said...: I just looked at the box score. The Yankees had a Zombie playing CF, and the final 3 batters in the order had a batting average -- combined! -- of .381.

Yes, this just goes to prove the Tigers are even worse than we all thought.; August 31, 2023 at 4:56 AM
Kevin said...: AA, my God the locker room is filled with stars!!!; August 31, 2023 at 5:12 AM
JM said...: I wonder what the odds are that all of these young guys make the HoF? Has to be astronomical. And if they do, it probably won't be with the Yankees. Any of them.; August 31, 2023 at 7:24 AM
