So, our lineup today features a No. 4 hitter with 0 home runs on the season and a .234 average; a No. 5 hitter with 0 home runs and a .200 average, and a No. 7 hitter who is batting .091.
(Yes, Miggy is back on the bench. Yes, I am sure he will soon regain that major-league swing playing a game once a week or so.)
They just announced it: first pitch in 45 minutes.
So those fans who stick around will have spent at least 2 1/2 hours on a freezing afternoon, waiting for a game to get underway.
The front office, the players, the announcers are all somewhere warm and comfortable. The fans sit out in the cold, paying extortionate prices for bad food copiously laced with rat droppings, while ads are blared at them at ear-splitting decibel levels.
Gee, I wonder how it is that baseball is losing popularity?
The weird thing about last night was the rehabilitation project who started the game and pitched to a mediocre level, was our pitching star last night. And yes, I am intentionally ignoring Whatshisname cause I'm still hurt over the departure of my TuchusMan.
Only question today is if Scherzer will pitch a no-hitter (or a perfect game). Michael Kay keeps inviting the juju gods by talking incessantly about all the no-hitters so far.
So, two walk and three strikeouts in that inning. With two of the K's called third strikes.
This reminds me of when I was a kid and no one was around to play ball, and I would just throw a ball against a fence, seeing how many I could throw for "strikes."
"Baseball: Come spend $100 on the same game you could make up as a kid!"
4 innings, 10 strikeouts. Yeah, I'm really glad we never even tried to get this Scherzer guy when he was a free agent. It would have got tired, celebrating all those World Series wins.
Judge strikes out on a ball out of the strike zone. Torres strikes out on a ball in the strike zone. Gardner strikes out looking on a ball in the strike zone. Multitude ways of ineptitude.
Judge looks awful. And he often has, for some time now.
Nice finish by Kluber. All right, all right, a decent outing all-in-all. But 2 runs in 5 2/3 with potentially another run out there? Not exactly his old self.
This is not a clutch team. It's not a team with good fundamentals in any sense of the word.
Gardner is done. He will always be a great and true Yankee. He should retire now. Have one more trip around the league, get his goodbyes in and watch the second half of the season at home where he can't do anymore damage.
Nah, Warbler. Don't send Gardy home. Make him a coach. Maybe make him the third base coach where, unlike Phil Nevin, he could successfully wave a runner home without getting him injured.
I know Hicks was just coming off the bench and all that. But with the game on the line you cannot go up there and swing at 1 pitch in 4. He was lucky he wasn't called out on three straight pitches.
One run handed to them on a mental error. One run detracted from us because of impatience at the plate...after watching legions of called strikes float by.
Bad clutch pitching, worse clutch hitting.
All in all, a team that once again showed up looking like it would rather not show up.
What just happened? What just happened? I'm not prepared to warble! I'm not! I'M PISSED OFF AND POUTING!! THESE FUCKERS - WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO BE YANKEES - ARE NOT ALLOWED TO TIE UP THE GAME, MUCH LESS WIN!! FUCK THEM!! FUCK YOU FORD!! GO BACK TO LOSING YOU FUCKING LOSERS!!
Meredith asking Gleyber "how much of a grind it was today," what with the rain delay, Scherzer, and extra innings.
Stop. Enough. Fourteen months into the pandemic, these young millionaires having to sit around a couple extra hours in their luxurious clubhouse, face a great pitcher, and play a couple extra innings is not a grind. It's a slightly longer, slightly tougher day at the office. Which is, after all, a playground.
She should have gone and asked a couple fans that question.
No, really, sorry she was so disturbed, and sorry she put poor old Chuck Finley through so much.
But can I also say: Tom Hanks is a force of nature. People he did movies, TV shows and whatever with in a different era have now retired, died, been reincarnated, etc. And he still goes on, an American icon.
Helen Hunt, where is her career? Peter Scolari? Meg Ryan? Melanie Griffith? Mary Steenburgen, Robin Wright, Gary Sinise, Sally Field???
I mean empires have fallen—and been put back together—and Tom Hanks marches on. Was he in films with Greta Garbo? Did he have an affair with Sophia Loren?
As all of you know, we could have had Scherzer, Corbin, and Verlander on our staff (staph?) at a "reasonable" price. Instead we have to listen to that SOB Hal 'splaining to us that it's Championships are sweeter when bought for as little possible. Not the price that fans pay for tickets and merch, just what he pays. What would it take for sports fans in this Country to go on strike? Sorry, I need to take more peyote and come back to earth.
All of the above isn't enough griping, but gawwwd Meredith gets on my nerves really quickly. Another Hal money saving move I imagine.

Weirdly, the Mets and Yankees are playing in the same city today. The Mets are playing, the Yanks have the tarp on the field.
So yeah, having a staff made up mostly of pitchers who have trouble going five innings has led to the bullpen already starting to wear out in May.
Hmm, who could have predicted that? Oh, right!
Just wait until September.
My bad. SNY was just re-running last night's game.
Can we take bets for when we’ll see a baseball game?
No, “they haven’t payed real baseball since 1969 and never will again. “ is not an acceptable answer.
Hilarious, Beauregard!
Hey, it's just the routine mistreatment of the modern fan. Wait two hours for the rain delay to end.
So, our lineup today features a No. 4 hitter with 0 home runs on the season and a .234 average; a No. 5 hitter with 0 home runs and a .200 average, and a No. 7 hitter who is batting .091.

Count your blessings. Hicks is not in the lineup today. May his cramps persist!
At least until next month.
Ah the glory of rain delay theatre dysentery.
BUT...
The Genius of Aaron Boone has Gardner batting fifth.
What a manager.
Never thought I would hear myself say: "Can't wait for Luke Voit to show up."
Looking at that photo, do you think the Master is related to Lewis Black?
The weird thing about last night was the rehabilitation project who started the game and pitched to a mediocre level, was our pitching star last night. And yes, I am intentionally ignoring Whatshisname cause I'm still hurt over the departure of my TuchusMan.
Once more: Does August 18th work for everyone? We should all be vaccinated by then and restrictions lifted.
Yes for me. Every day being much like every other.
Yes Winnie, count me in for Aug 18th!
Works for me!
Barring and act of God or Satan, I should be able to come. How we going to work this fiasco?
Simply brilliant play today.
Mike Ford, after a mental mistake in the field that led to a run, strikes out to go to 3-34 on the year.
Hey, at least he shaved his moustache!
HIGGYBURGER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only question today is if Scherzer will pitch a no-hitter (or a perfect game). Michael Kay keeps inviting the juju gods by talking incessantly about all the no-hitters so far.
But...HIGGY!
Love me some Higgy.
Higgy is so obviously the superior catcher in every respect. Sanchez should just be traded.
So, two walk and three strikeouts in that inning. With two of the K's called third strikes.
This reminds me of when I was a kid and no one was around to play ball, and I would just throw a ball against a fence, seeing how many I could throw for "strikes."
"Baseball: Come spend $100 on the same game you could make up as a kid!"
Judge looks lost.
Bitty, I'm just the ideas person. Now I need you and LBJ to do all the work getting the tickets.
I'll pay for tickets for whoever does everything!!
4 innings, 10 strikeouts. Yeah, I'm really glad we never even tried to get this Scherzer guy when he was a free agent. It would have got tired, celebrating all those World Series wins.
Judge strikes out on a ball out of the strike zone. Torres strikes out on a ball in the strike zone. Gardner strikes out looking on a ball in the strike zone. Multitude ways of ineptitude.
10 strikeouts through 4 innings. Holy Shit are they unwatchable.
How much longer can the Yankees and MLB keep the charade up that Judge is one of the best in the sport?
Judge looks awful. And he often has, for some time now.
Nice finish by Kluber. All right, all right, a decent outing all-in-all. But 2 runs in 5 2/3 with potentially another run out there? Not exactly his old self.
This is not a clutch team. It's not a team with good fundamentals in any sense of the word.
And now Chad Green is on. Sigh.
Keep pitching Green until his arm falls off. No worries if he's ineffective down the stretch. We won't be in the running for a playoff spot.
Gardner is done. He will always be a great and true Yankee. He should retire now. Have one more trip around the league, get his goodbyes in and watch the second half of the season at home where he can't do anymore damage.
That 2-1 score seems like 9-1…
They were mostly NOT hitting in spring training. "It'll come," I said to myself.
They mostly did NOT hit in April. "Maybe later," I said to myself.
NOW: I am no longer talking to myself. If the NYY pitchers aren't near-perfect -- all the way thru ALL of the bullpenners -- we ain't got a chance.
If Boone let's Ford bat in the right, he should be fired.
Nah, Warbler. Don't send Gardy home. Make him a coach. Maybe make him the third base coach where, unlike Phil Nevin, he could successfully wave a runner home without getting him injured.
JM, that's like saying I should fire my Apple for my next typo.
Hoss, just so long as Gardner never gets another at bat.
Ford! Ford! He's our man! If he can't do it ... AND HE WON"T DO IT BECAUSE HE'S TERRIBLE! HE'S NOT A MAJOR LEAGUE CALIBER PLAYER!! WHY IS HE HITTIG!!
FUCK YOU BOONE!!! FUCK YOU BOONE!!
Un-fucking-believable. .086.
Hey, lefty-righty match-up!
Who wants to bet Ford exceeds expectations here and hits into a DP?
And Chapman is up. Boy, that's optimism!
Washington had the shift on against Ford, which I think was insane. He was as likely to hit an opposite-field dribbler as anything else.
To think I sent my warbling pants to the cleaners for this ...
Tawny Kitaen died :(
And Stanton takes a swing at ball three, from a guy who can't get the ball over the plate.
Great. A "rally." Now they are intentionally fucking with us.
GELYBER!!! IT'S A GLEYBER SIGHTING!!! A HIT!! A PALBAPLE HIT!!
I dunno. I think LeMahieu should have taken more of a risk on that...
Boone wants to lose the game.
Nice!! And glad our runners were able to advance on that single.
Oh, good Lord, it's Hick!
A break from the ump!
And now the make-up call...
I guess that was a brain cramp.
Pathetic
I know Hicks was just coming off the bench and all that. But with the game on the line you cannot go up there and swing at 1 pitch in 4. He was lucky he wasn't called out on three straight pitches.
And now Frazier takes the first two strikes...
Awful, awful hitting. And now comes bullshit-ball.
If Stanton is patient there, we win the game.
Three good games against the minor league Tigers and two more against a hated opponent, do not make this a good team
And of course, this is the day Chapo has nothing.
They truly suck!
Doug K. (somewhere in Missouri)
One run handed to them on a mental error. One run detracted from us because of impatience at the plate...after watching legions of called strikes float by.
Bad clutch pitching, worse clutch hitting.
All in all, a team that once again showed up looking like it would rather not show up.
What just happened? What just happened? I'm not prepared to warble! I'm not! I'M PISSED OFF AND POUTING!! THESE FUCKERS - WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO BE YANKEES - ARE NOT ALLOWED TO TIE UP THE GAME, MUCH LESS WIN!! FUCK THEM!! FUCK YOU FORD!! GO BACK TO LOSING YOU FUCKING LOSERS!!
FUCKERS!!!
Wait, what's going on? Some big-ass pigs just flew by my window.
There are also strange, chilly drafts coming up through that weird portal in the basement...
Voit will be here next week so we won’t have Ford to kick around no more…
Boone batted Hicks as a PH.
Then he got worse.
We have to score a run here…heart of the lineup…
I would red-light Judge on everything. This guy can't find the plate all of a sudden.
Rainey’s got nothing…
Paulie just called Judge "Aaron Hicks." Paging Dr. Freud, paging Dr. Freud...
This would be a great spot for a Baltimore chop.
Baseball is gone.
Washington going to just two outfielders. All we need is a bloop!
yes. yay.
This is the greatest Yankee team ever!!!!
Doug K. (Somewhere in Missouri)
Paul O'Neill speaking truth: contact makes things happen.
The pitcher should have let Starlin take that one. But hey: a win is a win is a win.
Glad most of all for those people who sat out the last 6 1/2hours.
Thuh Yankees win.
I am astounded.
FUUUUUCKERS!!!!!!
That was a big Yankee win.
Meredith asking Gleyber "how much of a grind it was today," what with the rain delay, Scherzer, and extra innings.

It's a slightly longer, slightly tougher day at the office. Which is, after all, a playground.
She should have gone and asked a couple fans that question.
She should have asked the fans behind the plate not paying attention to the game in the 10th.
We should have lost this game...good omen?
Every Yankee win is a big Yankee win, but they didn't have to put us through that.
Fuckers.
Goodbye, Tawny Kitaen.
You were never the same after the plastic surgery.
Tawny, we hardly knew ye.
No, really, sorry she was so disturbed, and sorry she put poor old Chuck Finley through so much.
But can I also say: Tom Hanks is a force of nature. People he did movies, TV shows and whatever with in a different era have now retired, died, been reincarnated, etc. And he still goes on, an American icon.
Helen Hunt, where is her career? Peter Scolari? Meg Ryan? Melanie Griffith? Mary Steenburgen, Robin Wright, Gary Sinise, Sally Field???
I mean empires have fallen—and been put back together—and Tom Hanks marches on. Was he in films with Greta Garbo? Did he have an affair with Sophia Loren?
On he goes...
As all of you know, we could have had Scherzer, Corbin, and Verlander on our staff (staph?) at a "reasonable" price. Instead we have to listen to that SOB Hal 'splaining to us that it's Championships are sweeter when bought for as little possible. Not the price that fans pay for tickets and merch, just what he pays. What would it take for sports fans in this Country to go on strike? Sorry, I need to take more peyote and come back to earth.
All of the above isn't enough griping, but gawwwd Meredith gets on my nerves really quickly. Another Hal money saving move I imagine.
Hal’splaining... Is a new and accurate word!
Very true, Kevin. Not to mention Chris Sales, who could have been had for the price of Yoan Moncada.
But you know, much as we rightly ridicule Food Stamps Hal, the Yanks do have a pretty big payroll.
The trouble, again and again, is that HAL listened to Brain. "Get Sonny Gray, not Verlander!" Etc., etc., etc.
