"A New York Treasure" --Village Voice

Hello? McFly?

The Yanks have lost four games in a row. Couple of dumb ones against the O’s, couple of tough ones against the Angels. Be nice if they win one today.

Scoretruck–on the low–anyone?

Never mind the angst: Let’s Go Yanks!

Francisco Cervelli’s locker was just cleared, and his nameplate was replaced with a hand drawn tag for Austin Romine.

Looks like Romine will be here today, wearing No. 71.

No word on a move to make room on the 40-man.

3 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 2:11 pm

Rays up 3-0 in the bottom of the 1st and have forced Lester to throw close to 40 pitches so far ...

4 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 2:52 pm

Shields is struggling in the third now. Pedroia just helped him out by waving at a few pitches, but he's still in a jam.

5 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 2:53 pm

Hoo boy, Papi steps in with the bases loaded and one out...

6 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 2:55 pm

Gets him to fly out short to LF.
Here's Scarlet Penis with two out...

7 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 2:55 pm

C'mon Jimmy, wriggle free!

8 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 2:57 pm

Oh, whoops. Sorry, I can see why that one is awaiting moderation'!
Well, anyway, Shields retires Papi on a short fly, now goes 3-1 to Reddick (ball three looked pretty good to me)...
And Reddick pops out to end the threat.

9 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 2:57 pm

WRIGGLED!

Now, Devil Fishies, SCORE MORE RUNS!

10 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 2:58 pm

Ah, it passed moderation. Good, because I have a whole load of nicknames for Josh Red_dick and I would hate to lose all of them!

11 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 2:59 pm

[10] =)

12 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:00 pm

[10] Injun Cock!

Meanwhile, SWEEP THE LEG JOHNNY!

13 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:01 pm

[12] And yes, that was horrible, I was just guessing along with [10].

I'll be quiet on that subject now.

Go Rays!

14 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:02 pm

Damn, they are just pummeling Lester. Pummeluh pummeluh pummeluh.

15 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:03 pm

Oh, man, that really is dreadful, cult.
But there are many shades of red, and lots and lots of words for the other thing, so just mix and match!

16 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:07 pm

I'm now watching the World Cup. Rugby Union. I only understand part of it. But it's awesome.

17 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:07 pm

[15] Well, when I go off the rails, I prefer to do so on a bridge, for maximum effect!

18 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:11 pm

4-1 Rays!

19 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:13 pm

Hm, apparently in Rugby Union we are not exactly a world power.

20 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:29 pm

[19] What's the difference between Rugby Union and Aussie Rules?

21 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:33 pm

So what shitty reliever do we put in a close game today?

22 Just Fair   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:34 pm

I picked a good weekend to go camping. Looks like I missed nothing good. Yikes. : (

23 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:35 pm

[20] Hm, a bunch of differences. The overall feel is much more open and loose in Aussie rules -- in Rugby there are a lot of scrums and piles and less kicking.

24 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:36 pm

Our side have earned a try! (That's good. But we're losing by a bunch, this is just for respectability.)

25 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:47 pm

[24] There is no try! Do, or do not!

26 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:50 pm

Well, that was one fucking terrible at bat from Teixeira.

27 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:54 pm

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND here we go.

28 Just Fair   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:58 pm

Nap time. Fuck You Howie!

29 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:58 pm

Ballgame.

30 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:58 pm

This isn't going well.

31 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:59 pm

GRAND SALAMI for Upton!

8-1 RAYS!

32 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 3:59 pm

Salami for BJ Upton. 8-1.

33 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:00 pm

Wait, are we on?

34 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:00 pm

No! Dammit. I didn't realize I had to type fast.

35 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:00 pm

[33] In a manner of speaking.

36 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:01 pm

Is there a real chance it'll be us vs the Red Cocks for the wild card?!?! WTF

37 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:04 pm

[32] =)

Beatyabythismuch!

38 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:06 pm

Well, at least we got a clean hit.

39 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:08 pm

Tampa beating Boston would be a lot more fun if the Yankees game plan wasn't "wait for Tampa to eliminate themselves"

40 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:10 pm

I forgot what its called when a Yankee crosses home plate

41 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:12 pm

[40] An aberration.

42 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:15 pm

I don't HATE any team, not even the Red Sox, but good GOD, I sure do DISLIKE the dink-and-dunk Angels ...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH.

43 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:16 pm

How sad is it that Eduardo Nunez is such a horrendous fielder than I even panic when he goes to back a play up?

44 Just Fair   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:22 pm

But he's TOO BIG to catch!

45 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:22 pm

This game just isn't going to ... FUCK YEAH, ROOK!

46 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:28 pm

Blargh.

47 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:30 pm

[31/32] BJ is now 20-20! J-Up is already there. i wonder if they're the only brothers to reach 20-20 in the same season. (i care about this stuff!) there are 8 20-20 so far this season and prolly a coupla few more before the month is up...

Chipper just passed Yaz on the all-time homer list. 453, #33 (i think)

[42] oh, i very much hate a team very Very VERY much. hate Hate HATE the shit sox. hate them. a lot. more than a little...

so, jesus threw out a runner. he and sado!

48 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:30 pm

well, that frame sucked.

49 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:36 pm

[47] I can't think of any other good base-stealing brothers.

50 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:36 pm

[47] But beware of the dark side. Anger, fear, aggression; the dark side of the Force are they. Easily they flow, quick to join you in a fight. If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will ...

51 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:37 pm

motherfucking halos.

52 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:37 pm

My Little Throwing Error on the DP pivot.

Would-be DP.

53 OldYanksFan   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:39 pm

TB plates another. 9-1 after 7.

54 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:39 pm

[50] will Maiden be the house band on the dark side? if so, i'm there dude! ; )

55 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:40 pm

Whoopsie, that one's on HeyZeus ...

56 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:40 pm

[54] I dunno. No women on the Dark Side. Certainly not Natalie Portman.

57 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:41 pm

[52] hilarious!

braves just got swept (again). switched over to phils-brew crew.

58 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:41 pm

[55] That boy is our last hope...

59 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:41 pm

[54] More likely to be someone to the dark side of Slayer, don't ya think?

60 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:42 pm

oh, for fuck sake. enough with wild pitches, errors, infield hits, bunts and overall total fucking bollocks. goddamn it!

61 Raf   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:42 pm

Oooo, Garcia wanted that first pitch

62 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:43 pm

Eli - leading rusher

63 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:44 pm

[59] yeah, prolly so. then, i'm definitely not going...

64 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:45 pm

i still can't still watching k-rod pitch. his follow through has to make him the worst fielding pitcher this side of the Tigers in the '06 WS...

65 OldYanksFan   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:45 pm

Am I wrong... or has Teix NOT contributed to this team winning in quite a while?

66 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:46 pm

Wow, that was worse than his last AB

67 rbj   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:46 pm

Robbie!!

68 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:47 pm

[65] i'd say that's pretty accurate. grandy & gritner have been scuffling, as well...

25 blasts for robbie

73 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:49 pm

So far, Chavez, Rob, and a bunch of midgets.

74 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:51 pm

Um, no offense to midgets intended.

75 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:53 pm

[74] They can't hear you. They're all the way down there.

76 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:54 pm

[75] It went over their heads!

77 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:54 pm

please get a big hit. please.

78 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:55 pm

[76] nice!

79 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:55 pm

C'mon GGBG, we kinda, sorta, really need this AB ...

80 rbj   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:55 pm

Sigh.

81 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:57 pm

beltre hit his 300th homerun. he recently racked up his 2,000th hit. he's a little shy of 1,000 runs and 1,100 rbi. 32 years old...

82 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 4:57 pm

[80] That's MY line!

83 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:01 pm

I give up.

84 rbj   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:01 pm

*bangs head against desk*

85 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:01 pm

Ugh.

Women's tennis is on.

86 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:02 pm

Are they even trying?

87 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:03 pm

I assume King Felix is pitchin during the next 3 games so is there a real chance at an 8 game losing streak?

88 OldYanksFan   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:04 pm

Wow... this last week has been like a bad dream for NY and Boston, and a wet dream for TB.

89 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:04 pm

Fat Freddy's got FUCK ALL today ...

Meh.

[85] any hot blonde russians playing???

93 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:08 pm

[92] There's a cute Australian. And Serena, who I love, though admittedly not the way I like looking at hot blonde Russians.

94 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:08 pm

Well, wouldja look at that. Somebody besides Rob and Eric brought a bat!

[87] yeah man, i think the King throws tomorrow night...

99 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:09 pm

Fucking Tesh.

HeyZeus is going rocks here ...

i was just thinking that the curtis for MVP wagon has skidded to a halt, then bang.

103 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:11 pm

Wow. Oops, guess not.

104 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:17 pm

fuck. my thumb hits the stupid built-in mouse pad on my laptop. i hate that thing. any way to disable it?

anyway, sometimes the screen starts changing sizes. this sucks. now, my scoreboard page is tiny and i can't get it back to normal.

any one know anything?

105 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:19 pm

[100] he throws a lot of them.

[102] i was thinkin the same thing. still, the voters aren't gonna like the .266 avg.

106 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:21 pm

[105] We'll just have to settle for him being *our* MVP ...

107 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:21 pm

[104] ???
The whole screen changes sizes? Some window in particular?

108 rbj   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:25 pm

Oh good, looks like we're going to give back those runs. Wouldn't want to actually try and win a game.

109 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:25 pm

[107] yeah, kinda. it's like all the text. it can happen on any window. i have NO idea how/why/when this happens. it just does. something with that built-in mouse...

110 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:26 pm

Blech.

You've got to block that.

Why the fuck is Fat Freddie stlll in?

114 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:30 pm

You know I kinda like it when an NHL playoff-bound team that's underperforming changes coaches shortly before the playoffs. Wish the Yanks would ax Girardi right about now.

115 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:32 pm

Jesus Christ, don't let Nunez call you off anything

Sheesh.

What is it with our pitchers and leaving the bases loaded??!!?!?!?

120 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 5:35 pm

Wow, the MVP candidates do zilch

Damn, that should have been an out, 100%.

TOTAL CLANK.

C'mon, Chavey!

143 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:04 pm

So is it Proctor, Ayala and Noesi for the 7th 8th and 9th?

144 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:05 pm

Hey, awesome, I went and cooked and came back to a lead!

145 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:07 pm

Wait, I obviously missed something cool. What was the "wow, just wow" stuff?

146 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:09 pm

Sweet, some Romine time!

147 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:09 pm

Oh, the Angels CF muffed a fly ball, I get it.

148 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:10 pm

Thelarmis, do you have a Mac laptop?

149 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:10 pm

[145] The fact that Bourjos just dropped a ball that hit him in the mitt.

100% out ... just, dropped.

150 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:11 pm

[143] Ha! actually might be brackman, kontos and pendleton. hell, i don't even think pendleton is with us any longer. still, he'll pitch. maybe tanyon sturtze, if it goes to extras...

151 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:12 pm

[148] nope. just a regular dell laptop. studio, i think. 15", maybe...

154 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:13 pm

You know, for all the ragging on Montero defensively, I didn't see anything I don't regularly see from Cervelli

155 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:14 pm

Ugh.

Blech.

Seriously, Bodie, lose the chew ...

156 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:14 pm

I bet Russell could spit a guy out stealing second.

157 Raf   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:15 pm

[150] Pendleton is with the Astros now.

158 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:17 pm

Ugh, dammit.
We need a new SIG.

Pesky these flippin Angels are...

160 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:18 pm

Hate fucking sori

161 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:18 pm

i really dislike soriano.

162 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:18 pm

Why is that weird, Kay???

Why are you SO FUCKING dense!??!?!?

Markakis fucking lowered the boom on Cervelli as if he was leveling a kick returner ...

It wasn't baseball, it was the worst aspects of that other game ...

163 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:18 pm

[160] [161] Why it's practically a fan club!

Yeah, dude, it's probably the ball.

164 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:19 pm

[159] This and {160} that and [161] the other ...

165 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:20 pm

Robbie now!

166 Raf   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:20 pm

Hunter's not catching up to the FB

167 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:21 pm

What???? How could he be safe???

168 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:21 pm

What the hell was that?

169 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:22 pm

Batter interference

170 Raf   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:22 pm

Romine would've pegged Hunter had he thrown...

171 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:22 pm

Oh, he was safe. I'll be. Didn't look safe.

172 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:22 pm

[167] He was. Wow.

173 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:22 pm

How is that NOT interference?!?!?!?

174 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:22 pm

Fucking Nunez can't catch or tag

175 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:23 pm

Yeah, it was batter interference. I wonder why it wasn't called.

Anyway, no harm.

176 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:23 pm

[174] How quickly we forget that he can't throw either.

177 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:23 pm

[174] But he's good at other things.

178 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:24 pm

[176] Well, yeah. But other things.

179 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:27 pm

[178] He looks just like one of my sister's friends.

God bless her, not the prettiest thing.

180 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:33 pm

It's Hamma Time.

181 Mattpat11   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:33 pm

Hmm. Defensive replacement for Nunez

182 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:34 pm

[181] And Scott Proctor is warming up.

Can't predict baseball.

183 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:35 pm

If Scott Proctor comes into this game before Mariano ... I will KILL Joe Girardi.

No.

Really.

184 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:36 pm

"Scott Proctor warming in the bullpen" is the scariest phrase Kay has uttered since Jody Applegate said "I do" (I know it's illogical but go with it)

185 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:36 pm

Nice cover, D-Rob.

186 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:37 pm

NICE play by Tesh and Robertson!

187 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:38 pm

YOU HAVE BEEN HAMMERED MOTHERFUCKER.

188 Raf   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:41 pm

[183] I wouldn't worry, figure it's a throw day or something.

[184] Still trying to figure out the Applegate-Kay union...

189 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:42 pm

[187] I prefer ... YOU LOOKED LIKE A NAIL, MOTHERFUCKER!

190 Chyll Will   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:45 pm

[188] Isn't it obvious? One is the Keymaster, one is the Gatekeeper. Keep an eye out for a vagrant giant marshmallow man strolling down Fifth Avenue...

191 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:47 pm

[190] i have a new composition called "Gatekeeper" : )

192 Chyll Will   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:50 pm

[191] Kay is the "Gatekeeper" >;)

193 rbj   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:51 pm

Mo gets to work without a net

194 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:53 pm

(189) Maybe all of Kay's heads are huge

195 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:54 pm

Meant (188)

196 Just Fair   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:55 pm

I hate the Angels.

197 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:55 pm

That was impressive.

198 Just Fair   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:59 pm

Huzzah!
All Rise!

199 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 6:59 pm

Thanks be to Mo.

200 rbj   ~  Sep 11, 2011 7:00 pm

In Mo I trust.

The Hammer of God descendeth once again!

203 thelarmis   ~  Sep 11, 2011 7:00 pm

[121] told ya.

204 mhoward120   ~  Sep 11, 2011 7:01 pm

Boy do the Giants ever suck - 4-12 if they're lucky

205 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 7:03 pm

The Red Sox are now equidistant between us and the Rays.

206 cult of basebaal   ~  Sep 11, 2011 7:08 pm

Praise be to Mo.

So it is written, so it shall be done ...

207 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 7:13 pm

I think my favorite part of that game was: after seeing our crappy relievers for so long, we got to see the right way to finish a game. D-Rob and Mo, FTW.

208 RIYank   ~  Sep 11, 2011 7:25 pm

And speaking of pitching, just imagine this feeling:

Your Best Team Evah is in free fall. Your ace just got clobbered by the Rays. And you have Wakefield up next, and Andrew Miller after him.

There's a name for that feeling.

209 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 11, 2011 8:35 pm

We have the Father (Mo), the Son (Montero) on this team. Who is the Holy Ghost? Could it be the increasingly invisible Tex? Girardi actually praised Tex's long fly error, saying that he hit it far, in his game post interview. Jeesh.

Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. Yankees have been hung over from the crazy hurricane schedule and the flights. If they lost today, with King Felix tomorrow, they could have been facing a six game losing streak. This is much better. Maybe a detour to Vegas is in order.

The Angels will probably overtake the Rangers. The Yankees must take the devision to prevent a first round PS series against the Angels.

210 Boatzilla   ~  Sep 11, 2011 8:56 pm

[209] The Holy Ghost is Jorge. Girardi is Pontius Pilate. Jeter is Simon Peter and A-Rod is Judas. Oh, and Swish is King Herod.

211 OldYanksFan   ~  Sep 11, 2011 9:59 pm

Over the last week, the Yanks PS chances went from 99.8 to 99.1. Still not much to worry about The Sox went from 99.6 to (currently) 88.2. It's been a tough week, but we are still in good shape.
