URP alert!

[1] I hope you're deliberately trying to put a reverse jinx on the URP curse.

[2] I can't admit that, because that would negate the reverse jinx.

Wow, Oakland murderized the Rangers. We're going to need Tampa to stumble a little.

Crap

Holy fug.
Could be a long night.

Develop into a Curt Schilling? Why would you want a guy to become an asshole?

So getting URPed is an old Yankee tradition.

[7] As in, "I'm worried about junior. Since he reached puberty he's been developing into a real Curt Schilling."

Rob don't get URPed.

Welcome to the bigs, kid. Robbie will do that to ya.

Yessir, Cano.

Hm, the idea is to get the walk first, then the homer. Get your True Outcomes in the proper order, please.

I guess Rob rattled him a little.

Yeah, rattled for sure.

Take advantage, Ichiro!

Dang!
Two walks, a double, and a homer, makes one run.

Grrrbuglefrubit.

Congrats, kid.

Okay.
Better.

I feel confident.

Holy alligator arm.

Not only did he not field it, but he threw it like non-throwing-person. WTF was that?

I love a successful 3-0 swing.

Yeah, baby.

Gritner!

Brettsky is having a very good year, huh?

Jebus, he could have strolled into 3rd ...

Man, he had an outside shot at home if he didn't slide ...

Nerts, Cap'n.

BURP!

Good, Bloody Good!

Robbie Cano, don'tcha know!

Ummmm.
That doesn't look good. CC lost his control.

Found it.

I ran to the store and had the game on the radio. It was Sterling and some dude filling in for Suzyn. It sounded strange.

The Fat Kid appears to be all warmed up now.

[33] The High Holy Days must be early this year.

Who's the dude with the beard, pony tail and medals?

[35] Oh, that's right, they are. Rosh Hashanah started at sundown. Or as Suzyn would say, "That's exactly right, John."

I think Ryan Dempster and Daniel Webb should merge and form Daniel Webster.

Nova-Pettitte-Huff-Kuroda?

[37] Right. Happy New Year to all the Banterites of the Tribe!

That second baseman is good.

[37] Isn't John Sterling's real name 'Moskowitz'? Or is that Donald Sterling of the Clippers, aka 'Worst Owner in Sports'? Either way, happy holidays to those who celebrate! Thankfully the local falafel guy here from Israel is not religious and opens every day of the year so we're all set for lunch. :)

[35] Oh, yeah. My school has off tomorrow for Rosh Hashanah for the first time in 9 years for some reason. I didn't even put two and two together. Cheers.

Jeez, ya can't do nuthin' 'bout dat.

[42] No, it's some Anglo name, but he did change it to 'Sterling'. Can't remember.

Yeah, Israelis who emigrate are as a rule not religious!

[42] Dude, where do you get falafels? I see doner kebabs everywhere these days, but no falafels.

[42][45] Born John Sloss. Maybe still is legally.

Genius Jim Leyland just issued an IBB to load the bases in the sixth inning. So, of course, Porcello walked the next batter. Al Al Al Albuquerque enters and serves up a meatball to Young Will Middlebrooks... meatball, salami, whatever.

Alex kinda lollygagged that one to Robbie.

[47] Sloss. So I think I was wrong, that sounds/looks German, not Anglo.

5 mins from my office, you can get frozen falafels to take home. Tahini, Hummus and pitas too of course.

Good work, Big Fella. Now do it against a non suck team next turn.

[48] Al Al had problems here with the Mud Hens. Jim does have a few games to play with.

I don't think I've ever see Tony Pena that mad.

[54] It's understandable. The home plate ump is apparently calling some other game.

Okay, David, got 'em just where you want 'em. Now DROP THE HAMMER.

Bring in Fat Bastard. Let's make this game exciting.

FUCK!

Fucking Bollocks!

CC almost swallowed his chaw.

Aw jeez, an easy night just got hard.
Fuck!

Now is not the time to shit the fucking bed, ROB!

Uh oh.

Fuck.

The extra low punch out.

Mo!

Thank Mo for Mo.

Exhale.

The pitch was plainly a strike. This ump hasn't been giving the pitchers anything extra below the knees, but that one was not all that close. It was just a great pitch.

Well, here we go

Well, let's hope Mo has it going ...

[51] Thanks. Next time we have lunch together. Too far out of my jurisdiction for a special trip.

Is there anything Mo can't do?

Jeez, blue.

I'm gonna miss Mo so much

Of course to A_Rod!

Thanks be to Mo.

night all.

Praise be to Mo. And thankfully he got the 4 outs with not too many pitches.

Praise be to Mo.

Praise be!

Just got in, and listened to the last 2 innings on the radio. What's up with D-Rob? Thanks to Mo for restoring normalcy. Did I hear it right that Boston beat Detroit 20-4? Hopefully their bats will be tired tomorrow.
