It Seems Like Forever....


 ....since I have witnessed a Yankee game like this.

Where a young player ( rookie) does the unthinkable. 

Where hope reigns. 

What a day.

El Chapo, fill-in closer for the Pirates, trying to hold a 9th-inning lead against the Mets.

—Walked the first hitter.
—Let up a single to Bader.
—Now 3-2 on Ventos,

Ah, good old Sweats!

Men on first and third, two outs, four full counts, one wild pitch...

And another walk!

Bases loaded for Lindor!

Ah, poor Pirates fans. I keep thinking of that Randy Newman song:

"I just want you to hurt like I do..."

And Lindor hits a two-run single.

"I just want you to hurt like I do
Honest I do
Honest I do
Honest I do..."

Cubs' Colten Brewer breaks hand punching wall after rough outing


I'm sure that made it better.

Gil should be our closer. He looks like a closer. Throws hard like a closer.

Also, These announcers totally suck.

JM said...

Fucking Devers.

Did everyone here go to bed early?

There is nothing worse than an ESPN telecast. It’s aimed at backward caps wearing meatheads of all ages

Meanwhile, the team keeps cutting at the first pitch. Must have dinner reservations, Hey, if they don’t give a shit why should we?

At least, Gil pitched better tonight… maybe Matt Blake did something?

JM said...

Gil did really well. Now our hitters just have to figure out Cy Young.

Driving back up the coast so no text inputting whilst driving

JM said...

Ah.

JM said...

Soto doubles with no outs and doesn't score. Unbelievable.

Doug K. said...

Why do they pitch to this fucking guy?

AboveAverage said...

Why indeed

AboveAverage said...

Uhh Ugh Yuck Suck

A fine effort by Gil wasted. Judge was particularly lethargic. Perhaps he’d fare better playing CF; he is rapidly returning to his April malaise. Vertigo and Volpe continue to provide awful at bats.

We will lose both series this week against the O’s and Rays and Boone will continue to gaslight the fawning media.
