  2. Looks like it ain't gonna matter. The bastards are gettin' shut out in game 1.

  3. Just what Cole needed, a stupid, meaningless distraction courtesy of Caballero and his idiot pitch clock games.

  4. Mr Meatball strikes again.

  5. Pirates are a great hitting team now. Cole did a reasonably good job. Though the two homer was a killer. Obviously, mathematically zero chance of winning when you never score a run.

  6. Cole is starting to pitch really well. Except for these pesky gofer balls. When you can't score runs, these home runs are killers.

  7. If the Buccos had to do it over again, I think they'd rather let Rice walk. Then go after Jones. I never could figure out why pitchers do that. They pitch around a guy for the first three pitches and it's 3 balls, no strikes. Then they throw two straight hittable pitches. What the fuck?

  8. I read a book about Tom Parker and Elvis. Hence, the kernel.

    1. We're caught in a trap
      I can't walk out
      Because I love you too much, baby

    2. Wiki says Col. Tom Parker was an illegal alien. Is that true?

      Dunderhead Trump missed out on a golden opportunity this World Cup. He could've arrested everyone in the World Cup tournament final. Claim they were all illegal aliens. Shake down their governments for $500 mil a pop. Steal the trophy and claim it's his by default. Straight out of an Austin Powers movie.

  9. Ceiling once again lookin' like its bowing in.

  10. They escape catastrophe, by the skin of their teeth.

  11. Battlin' Bronx Bastards better score in the 9th. They suck extra special at extra inning games.

  12. One thing Grisham does besides the home runs, he does draw walks. Another reason why Brainless Cashman is ga-ga for Grisham.

  13. Man alive, the Yankees suck at hitting. Here come extra innings. A real long shot for the Yankees. they suck at extra innings.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Bucs did something Yanks could never do. They got a single with a runner in scoring position.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Pretty long leash for a guy who's struggling, eh?

    ReplyDelete
  16. This one’s as good as over.

  17. They're crapping the bed
    They lost the first game
    What a shame, a shame, a shame
    In the Bronx, New York

    1. The bed we done crapped
      I still got the trots
      Because we love you so much Brian…

  18. These little town blues
    Are draining my brain
    I'm gonna make a brand new start of it

  19. They couldn’t even get the meaningless x-runner in.

    Typical Yankee offense. All runs scored on one swing, the other AB’s were mostly weak, to the point of being non-competitive.

    This is such an easy to hate. I’m like Robby the Robot when asked to shoot someone. My circuits are all crossed and I don’t know what to do,

    ReplyDelete
  20. The Yankees get what they deserve.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Yeah, no surprises in this one. They're so predictable. If the Bucs had just pitched more carefully to Rice, Yankees probably get shut out or lose 3-1 in 9 innings. Rice only prolonged the agony.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Not a great throw but certainly nothing you could expect Volpe to come up with.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Volpe is unplayable. This must stop.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Da Battlin' Bronx Bastards finally score a run

    ReplyDelete
  25. Amazing what can happen when you run hard the whole way instead of jogging.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Bellinger proves he can score on a double

    ReplyDelete
  27. It's easier for a vampire hunter who can't stand the sight of blood to stake a vampire than for the Yankees to score a run.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Holy shit, Will Warren to pitch the 9th!

  29. Wow, the gambling establishment must've wanted the out call!

    ReplyDelete
  30. What’s with Yankee infielders throwing the damn ball?

    ReplyDelete
  31. Sure looked safe to me, but I'll take it: woo hoo!

    ReplyDelete
  32. That was a terrible call. Wasn't close. Take the W, I guess, but wow. If that happens in October there'll be hell to pay.
