Hopefully Will Warren picks up where he left off last time. But against this Cards lineup, it ain't a good matchup for him.

The Hammer of God said...

Who is playing with the lights?

The Hammer of God said...

I see Garcia has already caught the drunken baserunning contagion.

The Hammer of God said...

Seems like Lombard has already turned more double plays than Volpe did in a whole year.

BernBabyBern said...

So, do they put Lombard’s plaque in Monument Park this weekend, or wait a week or so just to give his family a chance to clear their schedule and be on hand?

The Hammer of God said...

Another game with non-existent offense.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

I was thinking that I need a funeral suit.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Have to wait to see if he gets into the Jacob ellsbury wing of the rehab center.

The Hammer of God said...

As long as you're not the guest of honor.

The Hammer of God said...

So far, Warren holding his own.

The Hammer of God said...

I hear the sounds of creaking, like the ceiling is about to collapse.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Boom, boom, out go the lights

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Yogi told me he wouldn't show up unless I did for his.

Hinkey Haines said...

Well, that’s that.

The Hammer of God said...

And there goes the ball game!

Rufus T. Firefly said...

ALL-STAR center fielder

ranger_lp said...

Can we all agree that Grisham has lost some range?

The Hammer of God said...

3-0 Cards, pretty much curtains

The Hammer of God said...

If I was managing, Spencer Jones would be in CF.

The Hammer of God said...

Grisham is slower than an old lady.

The Hammer of God said...

The other day, I saw ex-Yankee Carlos Narvaez run a lot faster than Grisham.

AboveAverage said...

L o s t ?

ranger_lp said...

Hold it you went with no range…

AboveAverage said...

Jazz might consider running hard all the way down the line next time

The Hammer of God said...

Jazz doesn't play hard all the time. Only when he's interested & motivated.

The Hammer of God said...

Hey, Lombard with a hit!

The Hammer of God said...

And Wells with the twin killing....

The Hammer of God said...

Hell, what a terrible game. This is like a goddammed funeral.

ranger_lp said...

What an anemic impotent team…

Hinkey Haines said...

That was impressive. The Stadium grounds crew is way better than the baseball team.

ranger_lp said...

Killed that rally…

The Hammer of God said...

Hell, this offense looks worse than when The Martian was here.

Hinkey Haines said...

Let’s see if the rookie has been corrupted by the can’t hit with runners in scoring position bug.

Hinkey Haines said...

He’s officially a Yankee.

ranger_lp said...

No joy in Mudville…

BTR999 said...

In another uniform

AboveAverage said...

i LOVE this team !!!!

Hinkey Haines said...

Rays & Red Sox fans do, too.

BTR999 said...

As boone would say, this team needs to score more than one point.

HoraceClarke66 said...

Six walks, four hits. One run. Unacceptable.

Hinkey Haines said...

Savages in the box, my ass.

HoraceClarke66 said...

Not only can Grisham not play CF, he also can't lead-off. This is ridiculous already.

HoraceClarke66 said...

But hey: we DID manage to get all three of our first basemen-DHs into the game!

Hinkey Haines said...

And both non-hitting catchers!

The Hammer of God said...

For some unholy reason, Boone is married to leading off Grisham & married to Grisham in CF.

BTR999 said...

Next level managing!

edb said...

Game thread, only a moron would take Garcia Jr. out and end up with Ali Sanchez as the tieing run with two out in the ninth.

edb said...

I mute God Bless America. This is what I understand the fans at the Stadium were singing; "God bless Cashman, a bald headed geek. He does nothing and makes alot, so to speak. He picks up alot of stiffs and when the Yankees need contatc the most, they whiff.

BTR999 said...

Nuthin’ sez complete ineptitude like Ali Sanchez taking a called strike three on the last pitch of the game.
