Where to watch the Yankees tonight

 

FIRST PITCH: 7:05  

OPPOSING TEAM: Nobody important. 

ALL MARKETS: Apple TV+

PRESENTATION: Attractive Apple-brand graphics display unhelpful stats, including odds of outcome on every pitch. Booth personalities at once frivolous and flat, enough to cause upset. 

JOHN & SUZYN SITUATION: Top rank. Above and to right of progress bar, sound and language button mutes TV audio and gives radio feed, precisely in sync.

  1. I read I paused I chuckled I thank you, Stang.

  2. Im going to assume with the ass lineup that's out there tonight for the Yankees, Boone and the ANALytics crew already had this day predestined as a throw away game

  3. It’s games like these I remember… I’m not actually a Yankees fan. I’m a John Sterling fan. There’s no other reason on earth to have this game on.

  5. An excellent start. And a great game to be unable to watch.

    Now to Friday martinis!

  7. Ah well game over

    I can forgive this being a team of bum players they did not sign themselves to ludicrous long expensive contracts

    What I can't forgive is a total lack of effort and it looks like we are just going to half ass the rest of the season

    Fans deserve better and if the players are not going to try hard every game then perhaps they should donate the rest of their salaries this year to charity rather than take the money under false pretenses it is an insult to every fan who shells out a fortune to attend the game in person or pay for the very many options of watching the games on tv

    yours in ager from Scotland

  8. Shelley Duncan: “Congrats Johnny Brito, you’re going to the show!”
    Marlin Abreau: “ Felicidades, Tú vas a programa de mierda”

  9. Here I was thinking we might catch Cleveland and Anaheim, but now I believe, watching this programme merde, we can catch Detroit!

    Go Yankees.

    When the value goes down down down
    and the prices go up up up
    Hal will show you the reason he gives you
    poor quality
    profligacy

  10. I just heard that Ca$hman has traded Judge, Cole, The Martian & Volpe for Wanda Franco. What a steal!

  12. Stang, I am reliving parts of my childhood this season. And not the good parts. Watching this team is like waking up in the morning to discover you wet the bed.

  13. Too Bad we couldn't have used a guy like Yoshida...who is like Hideki Matsui and Steven Kwan hybrid

    ReplyDelete
  14. We’ll, it’s only 7-1 - there’s still a chance it could go to 10-1!

  15. Joe, so true

    Dick, but it's even worse.

    Mr. bit, that's only the tip of the iceberg.

    In an attempt to re-institute last year's mantra:

    Fuck Lon Trost with a rusty pineapple encrusted in zircon. Fuck HAL, fuck the intern, fuck bonehead. Fuck them all.

    Except Judge. Our generation's Bobby Murcer. Think about it.

  16. https://johnsterling.blogspot.com/2023/03/predictions-predictions-bold-predictions.html

    Fonzie had 77.

    Celerino and Mr. bit had 86.

    Celerino has the tie-breaker on Judge HRs

  17. Suzyn just said that she was looking for last night's Mets game, but it wasn't on SNY. And she still couldn't find it when she searched through all of the streaming services and, in her words, "something called YouTube."

    When the time inevitably comes, I'm really going to miss these two.

  18. AVG OBP SLG OPS WAR
    .213 .291 .388 .680 2.9
    .201 .283 .444 .727 0.0

    Who would you rather have on your team?

    Add that to Zach's pitching comparison earlier today and you have...

    HAL sell the team.

    Not an original thought here.

  19. Don’t get Apple, don’t care. Watching the Giants.

    Looks like Brito was Shit-o

  20. What is the white stuff in Hebrew National hot dogs?

    One of the main ingredients in these dogs is "modified potato starch." And another one down the line is "hydrolized soy protein." Either of these two ingredients would probably be the white minuscule flecks found on the inside of these hot dogs, which is pretty strange to come across at first.

    WELL I THINK SOMETHING FAR MORE SINISTER IS GOING ON.

    And, although it may not be rat feces - I'm just not so sure if those white flecks are much better . . .

  21. “A big swing and a miss. Cantrun goes down swinging , Suzyn.

    As I always say, with Cantrun you can predict baseball.”

  22. Judge’s first YS HR since May!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Let’s not overlook tonight’s silver lining. Kenyan Middleton pitched a scoreless inning tonight, which is surely a sign that Brian $man’s savvy deadline dealing is really paying dividends as the Yankees drive to the pennant heats up.

  24. Will Boone still be our “Milk Fart Skipper” come Thursday or will Gerrit Cole (BAHAHAHAHA)
    be our player manager?

    ReplyDelete
  25. I don't with him harm, other than opting out (he should), but I can't get past Cole's alto tenor voice. Our Squeaky Fromme.

  26. Hinkey,


    Do you work for the Death Barge's PR wing?

    ReplyDelete
  27. Ruf, that bothers me too! He always sounds like he has a clothespin on his nuts.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Boone hitting another new low in his presser, saying that the timing of the pitchcom outage was “interesting”, implying deliberate. He did walk it back later, perhaps realizing how stupid he sounded. When asked about the continuing struggle he challenged the media to figure it out. The bright side is that each loss increases the possibility of his termination.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Rufus, does PR stand for Fuck Hal? If so, yes.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Watch out Detroit, we’re coming for you. You think you’re the only team that can suck? We are in full suckitude mode right now!

    I’m probably going to wet the bed tonight.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I had 77 originally, but then stupidly thought better of it.

    Damn.

    ReplyDelete
  32. 79. 79 ... if they go on a hot streak.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Hold on to your hate ‘cause you’re gunna need it ALL on Thursday
