When Stanton steals..
When dolphins fly,
When nuns wear heels,
When lakes go dry…
Then Stanton steals!
When box scores lie,
When kings cut deals,
When fans ask, “Why?”
Then Stanton steals!
When Royals cry,
“He has no wheels.”
It’s time to try…
And Stanton steals!

Excellent wordsmithing.
It was the "steal heard 'round the world." Who'd a thunk it? I'm so glad to have been alive to see it.
Can he do it again?
Yankeeland expects everyone to do their duty.
As does Yankton, formerly Yankville and. a long time ago, the homely hamlet of Yank.

of south torsion, ny says:
please mr judge
please hit the ball
hit it really far
over the war
Nice start -
I'll say. C'MON, JUDGE!
Well, he didn't strike out.
25 tons of hardened glass, rolls on no ordinary hammy, the hardest part, big man of hardened glass!
DP MVP.
Judge hit into the most double plays in the league this year? I can believe it.
Ugh
Now Judge is getting more outs than at bats?
Poor Judge! Guy needs something to dunk in for him to get him off the schneid.
Duque, is that an ABC song you're rewriting?
Now we'll see what Cole is made of.
We got the April -May Judge for the playoffs, instead of the June through September Judge.
What is the over/under inning for Cole? Great to have him go to the 7th but my guess is 5 1/3...
Could it be that the Anti-Flouncy has shown up?
The good Flouncy
Big man of hardened glass behind old Boonie's ass. (Debbie Harry rules)
We should be so blessed he goes 5 1/3.
S T A N T O N !!!
Man of Glass!
Does someone need to hit a triple to score Giancarlo? Is he all run out after yesterday?
Zzzzzzaj
That would have been an in the park hr for most anyone else
They let this guy get away. More awful clutch hitting. The Judge at-bat was really a killer.
Good work, A.F.
Yeah. Let him get away.
Shut it down!!!
Flouncy getting some swings and misses tonight. It doesn't mean anything.
He's still gonna stink up Kaufman, and we'll lose. Just pointing out the swinging strikes.
Wow. We just do NOT have a good-hitting team.
Volpe is never going to become the great base-stealer, is he?
Nope!
W.B Mason got a hit…
Yay!!!!!
Gleyber!
Who? Who are those players in the grey uniforms?? Cannot be our Yankees!?
Nice!!!!!! Another run!
They're hitting, after all. Sequential singles works.
I guess not…you’ve actually got to try to steal. Seems like Volpe stops running around June 1.
We’ll need three more runs to win
2 runs won’t be enough.
Hoss can you make a few calls and make those additional three runs happen, please? THX
See above
Allergic to the big inning, we are.
Should we assume Cole will ill intentionally walk Pham if he faces him again?
Phew
Flouncey's got his jag on.
Nope
Cole is pass my 5 1/3 guess. He's doing a great job this game!!!!!!!!!!
Judge. IAN double!!!!
Nice double by Judge.
Solid hit this time for Judge
I'm watching bits of the WNBA final during commercials. Refs flat out don't call traveling in pro basketball anymore, do they?
Wells just hit into a productive out that advanced to runner? Who the fuck does he think he is!?
Wat??!!
MAN OF GLASS!! 25 TONS OF HARDENED GLASS!!
S T a n T o n !!!!!
Worthless with another RBI.
Stanton always a threat to steal.
Blondie if the reference by the way, you irascible curmudgeons.
https://g.co/kgs/SQvQJUQ
Fashion and Rock n Roll icon!
Who is this guy wearing Stanton’s number for the Yankees? He’s pretty good, and a marked improvement over Giancarlo.
Insurance runs. Above Average thinks 3 will win. Hope he's right!
Great time for a double steal here.
Damn.
A good AB by Volpe turned into 2 outs…
Critical half inning coming up for Cole
Off the fourth album. I stopped at the third. The disco song lost me. Heart of Glass, that is.
It’s so much more entertaining listening to Sterling and synching the tv to the radio than it is listening to “and that’s that” Costas and Ron Darling.
Oh boy
Not tv coverage here for me - just the mlb app listening to John and Suzyn
Hey CLAY HOLMES is warming up
What's going on??
Now a brawl
Volpe comes up Big! Jazz need to stay cool...
Why wasn’t Brett on the field?
Great DP. And the Royals decide to punk it up. Ridiculous that Costas is going off on Chisholm, as if he had offended all of Kansas City to the core with his "Aw, they got lucky" remark.
John thinks this is all nonsense. He’s said that about 4 or 5 times already.
Cole looking like he was gonna beat Garcia's ass
Biggest out of the year, here...
I agree with him. That was bullshit.
Don't worry they'll interview him for the next three innings
Cole needs to abandon the cutter next yr
Get out of this inning!!!
Cole is emotional. That could be a problem
F@kkkkkk
See
Oh dear.
Aw nuts! The big, 0-2 meatball. Disgraceful.
Okay. Okay. That's enough of our ace. But not Aroldis. Please no Aroldis Holmes.
The almost fight got Cole all pumped up. Bad!
The princess felt the pea.
That's the problem of that fake-fight - takes Cole out of his rhythm.
And now the Yankee killer perez
This is the moment…
Dammit, Wells!
Now I’m emotional
Wells misses the pop up. It's another meltdown sign
Wells blew that one.
YES!!!!
Just gave them another breath…
Whew!
All right, Flouncy comes up big.
Still regret that run. Oh, well.
Nine more outs.
Some runs here buries them.
Need two more runs
It's Zerpie again!
Well said.
The Royals have 4 good left-handed pitchers in the pen. Must be nice.
Now it’s Clayber
Very bad call.
Horseshit call. They don't need any help, ump.
Yeah, I think AA is right. Two more runs.
Not even close to a strike.
Why the fuck that punk ass royal keep looking at the dugout....they don't give af bout you
Wow
I just spit up my first solid food (and that was a long time ago)
OMG! Thank goodness for that stiff KC wind blowing in.
Susan should interview the wind after the game. MVP
Costas: "On a different night, this might very well be a tie game."
I love you, Bob...but go fuck yourself. Yeah, no winds in the midwest in October. Un-heard of! What a freaky development!
Great!
STOP IT. STOP IT. THAT'S ENOUGH OF COLE. GOOD BOY. TIME FOR A NAP.
BOONE, I WILL FUCKING SHIT IN YOUR FUCKING DRIVEWAY.
With every moment the Yankees are ahead...Costas dies a little more inside
Six more outs.
Yeah, and if the wind hadn't been blowing in in Phoenix, in 2001, Shane Spencer has a two-run homer and the Yanks go home to a ticker tape parade just two months after 9/11. Sorry, Bob. Sports doesn't follow your script.
This is where Judge should stop pretending and be himself…
Yeah, that fly got me reaching for the paddles.
I wouldn't let Cole pitch the 8th. The reliever should get a clean inning
But I agree: enough of Cole. Good job, get ready for the next round.
Costas is getting flamed online for his obvious bias toward the Yankees.
I guess a lot of people think he's doing a terrible job. I don't get it. He's kinda goofy sometimes, but he doesn't bother me one bit. To each his own.
It's Smoltz I can't stand.
Jazz has a chance to turn those boos into salty tears of despair. But he won't. What sort of ballplayer is named Jazz?
Fuck all those parents who give their children embarrassing stupid names.
Boy, the Liberty is booting this game. Had a huge lead early, gave it all back, now bumbling through OT.
Chisholm really embracing the role of villain.
See? Told you. Jazz could have been the next Willie Mays were it not for the weight of his horrible name holding him down.
I like Jazz...he's like Evil Didi
It would be embarrassing if his parents had spelled it Jhazz.
For a "loose carefree" guy Jazz sure is sure as hell hitting an uptight .131! But it aint bothering any. The boos. Oh yeah, those aren't "boos" those are "Lous"... Pulling Cole, don't like it.
I wish he would hit more.
Mistake to take Stanton out of the game. He could still be very needed.
Holmes! Aaarggghhhhhh!
If I were KC I would love to see Holmes right now.
Yep
He seems good with this setup role, though.
Where the fuck was that pitch? Boone ought to be on the ump. Still, got the out.
Oh lord
Ooooo say can you CLAYYYYY!
Much better as the setup guy.
Three more outs.
Holmes did so well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3 outs to go
The Clay Holmes redemption tour continues.
Johnny Wad for the 9th? Man this is stressful
Wait, who is that man, and what has he done with Clay Holmes? (Not, you know, that we really care. Cut up his body and threw it in the East River? Well, we all have to go sometime.)
Will Holmes pitch the 9th?????
Volpe just getting robbed in this game.
What does the brain(less)trust have against Oswaldo?
Yankees simply refuse to bury opponents until the absolute last second.
Don't chase, Gleyber!
Maybe we won’t need any more runz
Damn. Well, I guess that was the wind, right?
Gave it a ride.
Now - two runs need to hold up....
JM, I used to be a fan of Costas, but he doesn’t do much for me anymore. He just doesn’t hold my interest, for whatever reason. I think he sounds bored sometimes — although not as bad as Al Michaels is now on football. And his call on the final out of last night’s game — “and that’s that,” followed by seven or eight seconds of silence— just seemed bizarre to me. It’s a 1-run playoff game, not a 13-2 game against the White Sox in May.
If Weaver is our closer next year, they have to start playing Dream Weaver when he comes in from the bullpen.
That is a great idea.
Yes….
Perez is KC's best hitter...
Yes! Yes!!!!!!!!
The bullpen has not given up any runs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's it!!!
Yankees WIN
YES YES YES!!!!!! WE DID IT!!!!!!!
Yankees Win!!!
He's not as good as he used to be. But I don't even register most of what any announcer says. They all talk too much. It's like the constant noise at the stadium.
ok
We am advancing!!!
THuuuUHUHUH-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH-UHUHUH Yankees WON A POSTSEASON SERIES!!!!!!!
Woo hoo!
WARBLE MASTER!!! WARBLE!!!
The magic number is 8…
Well. How do ya like that?
It feels so nice!!!!!!!!
HAHA True Dat.
Weaver absolutely filthy.
Suh-weet!
And the green grass grows all around and around, and the green grass grows all around.
We are being teed up by the Juju gods...
Take the cannoli...
It was a lot of fun to hear John do a series-ending warble. I think John is loving the chance to do the playoffs.
Costas making very nice comments about the guys he's worked with.
I like it Mel! I like it!
He didn’t Cistas the win!
Costas, thank you very much
Yeah, that was a nice tribute. Wonder if he's stepping back.
