19 LOB... the poem

T'was once, they said, a pennant race.
The Yankees, second best to none!
Nineteen runners left on base…
They couldn't even score one run.

Each tortured week, a darker chase.
Every batter up, an instant clown.
Nineteen runners left on base…
T'
is time to shut the season down. 

Don’t ask to see a hopeful face.
Don’t say this team is looking good.
NINETEEN RUNNERS LEFT ON BASE…
I’d punch the owner if I could.

I'm not listening tonight, just going to assume they do what they always do and make someone with and era north of 5 look like Randy Johnson circa 2001

I think you need to start counting the men left on base like the tabloid tally

This is really bad. This week is going to be a disaster.

Sorry, Duque, the "19 LOB" poem will need to be rewritten.

19 is but a dewy memory.

Woo hoo! All the way, baby!

Fucking Chapman. God damn it. Put Clippard in.

Steve Miller said...

For crying out loud, Joe. This guy is going to blow this game.

Steve Miller said...

Jesus. What the hell? Why did it take an amazing DP to put some fire in Chapman's eye?

Girardi is a pineapple fluffer. Even when we win, he gets you ready for the pineapple.
