I wonder . . . just how many . . . of that cast of thousands were killed by Rodon during the production? May their spirits help raise the Yankees to a win today because what the hell else could they be doing in the afterlife?

Shaping up to be a long afternoon

JM said...

Suzyn is pissed. Rodon, all the Yankees pitchers, get two strikes or two outs and can't put the opposition away.

She is correct. Of course.

BTR999 said...

Let’s see if they phone this one in

Pocono Steve said...

They will. The fatally flawed but more offensively balanced lineups of the late 2010s might have mounted a comeback, but this team checks out at the first glimpse of adversity.

Terrifyingly Unsurprising

JM said...

Hello, operator? Hello?

JM said...

As Tchaikovsky named one of his pieces, pathetique.

BTR999 said...

Please enter 50 cents for the next 3 mins, or your call will be interrupted. Thank you!

JM said...

Well, certainly can't be busy.

TheWinWarblist said...

Hrrmm ... maybe I will check the scores?

No. No. Nope. Nah. [Open bottle of wine. ]


Fuck Boone.

DJ needs a day before he retires at the end of the season.

Pocono Steve said...

Pretty well-pitched game--except for the Rodan portion of it.

JM said...

Fucker fucked fuckheads.

TheWinWarblist said...

Wind-assisted warning track power.

JM said...

If he hit it out, we'd have to lost 4-3. You know it.

Unwaveringly Pessimistic

BTR999 said...

A lazy, complacent effort, typical of the team in a day game following a night game. They’re a reflection of their easy going manager, clueless GM, and uncaring owner… Tomorrow in a Williamsport we face the best starter in the league, Tarik Skubal, a guaranteed loss. But hey, as Verdugo observed, it’s just a game. Atta boy thought boone…

AboveAverage said...

I was just told that my game thread image likely jinxed the team today. For those that believe this I apologize 🤣

13bit said...

First off, we don’t believe in no fucking jinxes. Second, if there were such a thing as a jinx, it’s namedy HalBrianBoone and he comes from the Maritime provinces in the form of a wind that smells like 1 million farts.

Glad I missed it in technicolor.

Mr. bit, I apologize, but i will not be making the trip to NYC this week. I have too much going on and I'm not getting things done that need doning.

I has nothing to do with how pathetique the team is (h/t Herr JM).

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Is the game tomorrow really in a little league park? There should be a lot of homers.

Someone should measure the left field foul line and compare it to phen-weigh.

My transporter is on the fritz again or I'd beam over to the city for a game. Nothing I'd enjoy better.
