"A New York Treasure" --Village Voice

Oh, Yeah

Tonight gives a rematch of C.C. Sabathia and James Sheilds. Great as the big man is, my hunch says that C.C. will finally have a bad outing. Yeah, I know it’s his birthday. I know the Rays aren’t a good hitting team. What the hell am I talking about? Mabye the heat is getting to me.  So here’s hoping I don’t know dick and that my hunch is all kinds of wrong.

In the meantime: Let’s Go Yank-ees!

Man, I'm watching MLB and Orlando Hudson just caught a foul ball and went crashing into the wall on the 1st base side in Florida. (carted him off on stretcher with his the thumbs up sign) This after watcing Stephen Drew have a horrific fractured ankle after sliding into home last night in Arizona. 3 pitches later Brewers cf dove and caught a ball breaking his left clavicle. Be careful out there y'all.

Alex, find some shade, grab a cold drink, take an aspirin, and check yourself for heat stroke!!

Good news:

Derek Jeter SS
Mark Teixeira 1B
Robinson Cano 2B
Nick Swisher RF
Jorge Posada DH

[5] Heh.

I'd say "great" news would be:

Gardner
Granderson
Teixeira
Rodriguez
Cano
Swisher
Montero
Martin
Jeter

But that's just 'cause I'm greedy and want to crush my enemies (etc, etc)

7 Just Fair   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:19 pm

Cano was blowing a bubble right in the middle of that 1st pitch.

8 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:19 pm

C'mon Cornflake!

9 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:22 pm

WTF?

Did they just shift on Swisher with 2 on base?

I'm as confused as Cornflake was ...

10 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:27 pm

Fugh.

11 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:33 pm

Pisshands ... just call him Pisshands.

12 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:35 pm

Losing the "Russtache" was a bad, BAD decision.

Just sayin'.

13 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:45 pm

This is reminding me of the most over-rated Pink Floyd album ever ... "Is there anybody out there?!?!?!?!?"

14 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:46 pm

Just post if you can read me ...

15 William J.   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:47 pm

I hope I didn't jinx CC tonight!

16 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:49 pm

[15] You've been sparse around these parts. For only the best reasons, I hope?

17 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:51 pm

Oh, Derek ...

18 William J.   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:53 pm

[16] Mostly because I am seldom at a PC during games like I was in my bachelor days. It's much easier to tweet from a phone than post a comment.

19 William J.   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:54 pm

It even looked like DJ broke it down early on that ground ball. Very sad to watch his rapid decline.

20 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 7:55 pm

[18] Ah, I didn't know about your loss of bachelorhoodosity, congrats!

21 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 8:07 pm

Unlike *most* of your bunt ideas, THAT was a good one, Cornflake ...

22 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 8:09 pm

Oh, Whore-hey ...

23 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 8:40 pm

Oh, you farging chack-sacker's ...

Mother-farging corksuckers ...

26 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Jul 21, 2011 8:46 pm

Cano walking always makes me think of that old "Bird dunks!?!" commercial from the 80s..

27 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 8:47 pm

Bastages!!!

28 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 9:00 pm

40 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 9:25 pm

[35] Indeed, mylarmis!

Hope your gigs were "TEH AWESOME!".

Where you at now?

41 Just Fair   ~  Jul 21, 2011 9:27 pm

Ratshitfuck!

42 thelarmis   ~  Jul 21, 2011 9:29 pm

[40] the gigs are not awesome, but it is good work, i suppose...

i'm in madison, wisc...which is indeed awesome. i always heard it was great, but it's waaaay better than i was expected. i would've loved to have gotten my masters here, or something. wonderful place!

unfortunately, we hit the road at 6am. the traveling on this tour is beyond brutal...

43 thelarmis   ~  Jul 21, 2011 9:31 pm

just fair - in regards to [1]...

yeah man, i was actually watching the brewers game here in Wisc and saw those 2 brutal injuries back-to-back. that was nuts. didn't see the hudson injury, but heard about it.

braun made a great play in the brewers game last nite. i'm glad he's back from his calf injury and hitting bombs again.

44 Just Fair   ~  Jul 21, 2011 9:43 pm

Life!

45 monkeypants   ~  Jul 21, 2011 9:44 pm

46 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 9:45 pm

[42] Sheeeeeit, I always expect you to report back with fuckingawesome in the bag.

47 Just Fair   ~  Jul 21, 2011 9:46 pm

[43] Brutal, right? Hurts just thinking about it.
C'mon, CURTIS!

48 cult of basebaal   ~  Jul 21, 2011 9:49 pm

Fuck.

No.

Sigh.

Shit.

49 Just Fair   ~  Jul 21, 2011 9:50 pm

Watching Farnworrth get a save is an extra kick in the balls. Damn! One bad pitch from CC.

50 monkeypants   ~  Jul 21, 2011 9:51 pm

[49] I was going to write something along those lines, but your said it. #%$@(#* Farnsworth.
