Kevin said...: Well, that sucked; August 22, 2025 at 9:02 PM
Hinkey Haines said...: Well, this game is over. On the plus side - another game the Yankees didn’t get no-hit! Makes me proud.; August 22, 2025 at 9:03 PM
ranger_lp said...: Can’t Run is up..,; August 22, 2025 at 9:29 PM

Hinkey Haines said...: Helluva pair of at-bats there by Volpe & Stanton. Those were some weak-assed swings.; August 22, 2025 at 9:31 PM
TheWinWarblist said...: Hey, just logged on. How are we doing?? Are we WINNING??; August 22, 2025 at 9:31 PM
TheWinWarblist said...: Did Li'L Tony throw to the wrong base!? Oh that wee little scamp!; August 22, 2025 at 9:35 PM

TheWinWarblist said...: Just saw the recap. Wells was doubled off first base because the Yankees run the bases like drunken sailors? Yep. That checks out.; August 22, 2025 at 9:54 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: If Judge is Casper, Boone must be Casey Jones.

AboveAverage said...: Nope; August 22, 2025 at 10:20 PM

AboveAverage said...: It is pathetic; August 22, 2025 at 10:36 PM

AboveAverage said...: With a nod to Blondie, re: Boone:

Crappy games that still arrive
Die in 2025
Go away and terminate
Go away and terminate
This team was once a dream
This dream was on the screen
Go away and terminate
Go away and terminate
Go away and terminate
Go away and terminate; August 22, 2025 at 11:08 PM
