  1. So, we now know that Schlittsky is possibly the equivalent of the Manchurian Candidate and that he may, in fact, have a Musk-installed controller chip in his head that is controlled by a joystick in the Red Sox dugout. Dark times, my friends...

    1. Or . . . controlled by Valentine from Kingsman The Secret Service
      (look for the scare near his ear on the side of his neck)

  2. Schlittler is an editor's dream. Can you imagine the headlines in the Post if he falls on his face?

  3. I'm hiding under the covers with the pillow over my head. The thought of losing to those guys is revolting, worse than the 5th inning last year.

    1. Make sure there's enough air under there

    2. Leave room for the rest of us. We're on the way over.

    1. After the earlier conversation about Catwoman, I can understand.

  5. Big G? They're calling Giancarlo Big G in the Yankee booth.

  6. Don't stare at your dame hits, Stanton -- run!

  7. See ya, Rosie! Time to go lie down in the back of the car.

  8. So, what's the prevailing sentiment towards Jazz these days? Can someone tell me how I'm supposed to feel?

    ReplyDelete
  9. I'll tell you what - if these assholes advance to the next round, I say we do a zoom watch party.

    1. Can we all be drunk?

      (rhetorical question, obviously)

      Delete
    2. Drunk, crazy, screams puking - you name it. Let's dream big dreams. I could totally set up the Zoom part. For this game, though, I recall the words of Colonel Ruppert, Who said something along the lines of "I like it when they score 7 runs early and then slowly pull away." I'm sure that Hoss could correct me, but I feel like I read once that he said that when he was asked his idea of a perfect game.

  10. I can't help but think of Cheech and Chong's skit about Basketball Jones: sponsored by budweiser. Just remember when you're out of beer -- tough Schlitz!

    ReplyDelete
  11. These fuckers better hang on to get that Zoom party.

    (And Amed Rosario of all people is the guy to drive in the run?)

    ReplyDelete
  12. Wait a minute ... the Yankees had the bases loaded ... and DIDN'T hit a weak pop-up? What the hell is going on here?

    ReplyDelete
  13. Is Aaron Judge finally gonna have a post-season moment?

    ReplyDelete
  14. Typical station-to-station Yankee offense right there!

  16. Need a quick shutdown inning & then another crooked number.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Do not believe what you are seeing. Do not.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Not quite quick but … another zero.

    ReplyDelete
  19. The little info boxes on Schlitter says he's throwing a 100-mph sinker.

    I mean ... what???

    1. Trust me, just lust.

      Not that there's anything wrong with that.

  21. 11 K no runs through 7. The bullpen has got their work cut out for them if their gonna blow this game. But I have faith.

    ReplyDelete
  22. It's really never over until it's over with these guys.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Judge just doesn't playoff, does he?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I love Judge, but he needs either a shrink or an exorcist. One good hit could cure him, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

      Delete
  24. We actually developed a pitcher…

  25. Bruh Did Aaron Boone's body get taken over by the ghost of Joe Torre what is THIS going with his gut

  27. Boone gettin' ready to fuck this up! Leave the man in.

    ReplyDelete
  28. If they throw Luke Weaver out there in the ninth I will throw a brick through my TV ....

    ReplyDelete
  29. please god let Chapo crapo the bed

    ReplyDelete
  30. Boone should let Cole pitch the 9th

    ReplyDelete
  31. Unless they score 52 runs this inning, it’ll be Bednar.

    1. You'd think -- but remember it's Boone in our dugout, so ........

      Delete
  32. Remember what it was like when we had Mariano? I know you do...

    ReplyDelete
  33. Can someone tell me how many pitches Shlitz had? Was it under 120? How many ways can I hate Boone anew?

    ReplyDelete
  34. HOLY SHIT

  38. I predicted Yankees in 2.

    Just wasn't the first 2.

    ReplyDelete
  39. You know, there's nothing quite like ending the Red Sox season.

    And Cam Schlittler might just have become a star.

    ReplyDelete
  40. From the interwebs:

    "On July 2nd, Cam Schlittler gave up 7 runs in 2 1/3 innings against the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs. Life comes at you pretty fast."

    ReplyDelete
  41. I envy the people in the stands right now. As someone who was at game 6 of the 2009 ALCS, I can say that there are few places as fun to be at than Yankee Stadium after winning a clincher. EVERYONE sings along with Sinatra, and high-fives everyone within their field of vision. I high-fived so many people my hand was sore, and it was great.

  42. Katie Sharp:

    Cam Schlitter is the 1st pitcher in MLB history with 8+ IP, 12+ K, 0 R and 0 BB in any Postseason game.

  45. Shlitz became a Yankee tonight. I'm happy for the guy. Can we put Boone in a sealed Airstream for the next few weeks?

    ReplyDelete
  46. Number 31. Cam (Cammm) Schlittler (Schlittleerrr).

    ReplyDelete
  47. How sweet it is, All Hail King Schlittler!
