Nice play by Vertigo.
My favorite game ever, but Lou was the real hero, not Russ O'Dey.
Rufus - that's a really great troll! Well done.
Oh for the record schmutz rhymes with foots not with putz.
Putz rhymes with mutts. :)
I do not like Stroman. He's the Holmes of starters.
Stromanized.
Doug,
I was lucky enough to be at the Bucky Dent game -- in the bleachers behind Lou. When Larry (evil empire) Luccino said they would be selling bricks, well -- I had to. I have a certification that they will never remove it as long as the park stands. Inside the Carl Yazstremski gate, who made the last out.
Oh, and fuck the rude sucks.
And Doug -- I have a replica in my office. Signed by Bucky Dent and Mike Torrez.
The Casas Show - live from Fenway
Gleyber tried REALLY hard there
Rufus - That's truly great!
AA - This guy is auditioning and should get the job!
How about we win this fucking game.
Stanton wiffs.
All this stealing is showing the rest of the league how to beat us! This does not bode well.
Why are they asking edumbo Perez about base stealing? He had NINETEEN FUCKING SBs his entire FUCKING career.
Gawd that guy sucks.
Doesn't suck as much as this ump! Soto had five balls already.
Then there was the check swing K on DJ.
Russ O'Dey?? I know you have told us before. But??
Bucky Dent. Adopted by his Aunt and Uncle. Birth name -- Russell O'Dey. Aunt and Uncle were Dents and adopted him. Needed to get past the carmines censors to get the brick in phenweigh.
Perez is full of shit that his father hit the Citgo sign. It is 800 feet away from home plate.
Our offense has semi disappeared again.
Perez does get an occasion fact wrong, I hear.
Occasional
I had no idea Trevino was so bad at throwing guys out. What happened to his vaunted arm?
Nice clown play by the Sox.
Poor Rizzo can't catch a break. Maybe a bad choice of words.
Nobody beats the Rizz - but he sure does get hit a lot
Ben Rice come on down (actually come on up!)
Rizzo went to a baseball game and a hockey game broke out.

https://pinstripesnation.com/yankees-top-prospect-ben-rice-moves-up-to-triple-a-one-step-from-mlb-2024-06-05/
Torres is a moron
Gleyber comes through in the clutch again.
Damn it they suck!
Bases loaded no out and not even contact? Jeeeezzzzz.
Actually, it's jizz
ok. jizzzzzzzzzz.
If only there was a hitting coach...
Embarrassment.
Ferguson, another waste of bullpen space
I'm done.
bullpen collapsing. I blame McBroom.
They're a .500 team again. It's a familiar feeling.
I can't believe I'm going to see this dog fornicating team in July.
Welcome to the “lose 15 of 18” portion of our program.
If I see that McBroom guy around here one more time, I’m going to plotz.
But first I’m going to strangle him. This is the second time he’s made an appearance and he never arrives with good news.
Puke.
Vomit
There are, what, 8 stolen bases tonight? This is truly embarrassing for Trevino
Brian has a plan...
'Duque, you got some 'splainin' to do!
Happy Father’s Day my Ass CasHal!
Send Rizzo flowers!
Send Gleyber to Iowa !
I was at the stadium for Pedro's next start after the infamous "who's your daddy?" interview. It was spine tingling to have that chant echo from one end of the stadium to the next, over and over, in waves. Happy daddy day, Brian...
Their hearts were young and gay.
And their buttocks!
What’s a buttocks?
Asking for a friend (he’s a priest).
I think we all need to take a deep breath, access our compassion and generosity, and recall that without Duque, we wouldn't even be here. Let's take it easy. Let's not get carried away.
Ok,I am stating the obvious here, but hopefully it's obvious to The Brain. Namely that the past week has clearly shown what the flaws are: Judge can't hit all year like he has been hitting for the past month, we need ideally two corner infielders who can drive the ball and play good defense, two relief pitchers who can strike people out, and have a real swingman type reliever unless Poteet has some kind of underlying metric known only to the front office. We are stuck with Torres, it's unlikely that we can reasonably replace him. Pray for health. But let's not get into the funk that the end is near lest we become clones of the Red Sox fans of years gone by. Personally I will stop watching and following baseball before that happens!
