DickAllen said...: This is what pitching in the 21st century has become:

Michael Kay stated that “German is giving the Yankees length.” This comment came after a graphic showing Domingo averaging 6.1 innings per start.

That is what is now considered length. And the comment passed without further remarks out of the YES booth. I wonder if there are former pitchers sitting at home, shaking their heads, wondering what they are watching.

At this rate, bullpen arms will be falling off by the Fourth of July.; May 20, 2021 at 2:57 PM
JM said...: German is one weird looking bastard, you know?; May 20, 2021 at 3:32 PM
Suzyn's Bitch said...: I don't care if he looks like ET (actually, he kinda does!), as long as he pitches like this!!; May 20, 2021 at 3:36 PM
Joe Formerlyof Brooklyn said...: My eyes have not yet gone bad. It looked to me as if Ursh beat the throw there.

What did you see?; May 20, 2021 at 4:00 PM
ranger_lp said...: @el duque...tnx for the graphic of my favorite hockey team who has early tee times...; May 20, 2021 at 4:23 PM
DickAllen said...: Watching the game today on YES, they were showing Higgy comfortably sitting on the bench between Kluber and Montgomery, with Cole bouncing around behind all three. Higgy was having fun while Cole joked with them. Looked like real easy camaraderie.

I had to wonder if Sanchez has the same rapport with those pitchers.

Bet not.; May 20, 2021 at 4:29 PM
Joe Formerlyof Brooklyn said...: Game almost over. Judge PH, one at-bat (hit). GStanton not with club. YET: 10 strikeouts by the NYYs.; May 20, 2021 at 4:32 PM
HoraceClarke66 said...: The YES replay showed that when Gio reached around the tag he put his hand not on the base, but the fielder's spike, which was covering the base.

If we had a manager who was actually awake, he would have challenged the call, AND charged out to argue that this constituted blocking the bag, which is illegal.

Probably wouldn't have worked, but who knows?; May 20, 2021 at 4:46 PM
HoraceClarke66 said...: And now Machine Gun Chapman can't find the plate...; May 20, 2021 at 4:52 PM
HoraceClarke66 said...: We'll be lucky if Chapo doesn't blow the game right here.; May 20, 2021 at 4:53 PM
HoraceClarke66 said...: Right again! :) Well, glad to see it.; May 20, 2021 at 4:56 PM
DickAllen said...: Horace, 100% correct. What does Boone have to lose challenging that call?

The guy must be sleeping.; May 20, 2021 at 4:57 PM
TheWinWarblist said...: Sorry I was away today. Long day on call at the hospitals.

The-e-e-e-uh-uh-uhuhuhuhuh-UH-UH-UHUHUHUH YANKEES WIN!!!!!; May 20, 2021 at 5:48 PM
Ceeja said...: Very poor baserunning by ford and gio. Three outs on baserunning mistakes. Get your head in the game. As the great Joe Schultz would saY: "AW shitfuck. Well pound that Budweiser tonight a d get em tomorrow "; May 20, 2021 at 9:45 PM
HoraceClarke66 said...: At least the last Gio out was an effort to get into position where he could score on a sac fly. Assuming any of our hitters could cordon a sac fly.

But hey, I don't mind a little over-aggression to try to extend a lead. It's the other absent-minded stuff that's not good.; May 21, 2021 at 12:11 AM
Anonymous said...: Ceeja,

I'm thinking "Aw shitfuck" for Ford and "AW fuckshit" for Gio. He was nothing if not verbally versatile.
