The Yanks played well in Tampa. Tonight, the Rays come to town for the first time this year.
It’s the Warren Report featuring:
Jacoby Ellsbury CF
Brett Gardner LF
Alex Rodriguez 3B
Mark Teixeira 1B
Brian McCann C
Carlos Beltran DH
Chris Young RF
Stephen Drew 2B
Didi Gregorius SS
Will be watching Didi with special interest–I’m rooting for the guy, I feel for him, especially in the field where he seems all screwed up. I just hope he can ride it out because he should be better than this and he will be better than this. It’s not easy following Jeter, you know?
I know Beltran has sucked but I hope he stops sucking any day now. It’s bound to happen.
Hey, never mind the kvetchin’:
Let’s Go Yank-ees!
I share the sentiment. He's no Carl Pavano.
White Sox/Orioles postponed due to riot.
Those 8 fans behind home plate look thrilled.
It's so lame seeing all those empty seats behind home plate.
Just so sad and lame.
[3] Right?
[2] Ugly situation all around.
NIce fucking play.
Damn, though.
Lucky break.
Lucky break.
[8] Jinx
Yes!
Good Houdini ing by Warren. Let's go offense, By the way, if Maddon was still the manager, YES would have shown him about 37 times by now. Good riddance to the "genius."
Really?
Player of the week?
That's kind of sad, isn't it? Teix is the hottest player in the league right now?
That was low.
Yeah, it was way low.
[12] I just discovered that Mike Matheny is a serious chess player. I mean, literally, not the way Girardi and Maddon used to play. Interesting.
Well how about that?
[2] Christ, that is serious.
Damn. The Bronx is a cozy little suburb, huh?
What are we going to do with Beltran?
[19] Carlos must seek advice from Pentland. They won't approach him because of his seniority.
It doesn't look like this game will waste too much of my evening.
Via David Pinto, Brandon McCarthy needs TJ surgery.
McCann could.
Me likey
[2] Yes, the macing and clubbing of newspaper photographers by police is really out of control. Hope the N Guard is sent in to protect the protesters.
Man, Didi.
Attaboy, Jacoby.
[25] Where's the footage of that?
He might have been thrown out anyway had he not tripped.
[26] we're all rooting for him, I know..but man..
Weeping, check out John Angelos's statement last night? Orioles COO (Peter's son)
(Also, thanks for saving Mattpat's kishkes by not just standing there waiting for Brett to homer.)
That wasn't a strike.
[28] Chicago Tribune. Train now, will look for a link and send you later if you can't find it.
Wait--everyone seems to be doing it, or at least a lot of guys. This scrubby little mustachio growth. Holy cow. Dude, Gardner looks like a gay stripper. This is could be so bad it's good. If they get A Rod to grow a mustache the Internet will explode.
[33] I was looking at the Tribune videos. Must have looked at the wrong page.
[30] Wow! Damn! That's incredible.
[36] Isn't it? Wonder if Hal&Hank would respond that way.. :)
[35] Saw on Twitter
Warren dispensing some justice this evening.
[38] I won't judge you on that pun.
Pace of play pretty good tonight.
Atta boy, Didi
Hey!
I was just thinking, "Well, at least that Drew walk clears Gregorius so we don't have to start the sixth with one out."
Got a break. Now Jacoby has to do something big...
Damn.
Just missed.
Damn, foul.
Argh!
I got excited by a foul ball. Jacoby didn't.
Two on, two out, two balls, two strikes...
Ball four.
Let's go, Brett!
Nice and easy...
Nice AB scrubby mustache Ellsbury. Time to bring 'em home, scrubby mustache Brett.
Well, just a nice line drive and Brett could be the hero.
Up to you, Brett.
[48] Is JoeyJoeJoe growing a 'stache too?
Find a gap, Lil G!
3-1...
3-1 count...
Sit on the fast ball, Gritner!
3-2.
Start the merry-go-round...
Hey!
I'll take it, baby.
I'll take that!
Yay!
Nice ab, Brett!
Three BB and an IF single.
And now... it's money time...
Hit this fucker out, Alex!
Or that.
Nope. No money for you.
It's cause he doesn't have a scrubby mustache.
Dagnabit!
Damn.
Alex in a funk.
That was a lame-ass dribbler.
Shit.
Hm. Warren might be running out of gas here. Big inning for him.
Run roh!
IF in, interesting. Probably right.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Fuck fuck fuck fuck!
Damn it damn it damn it.
What?
Oh, bad throw. Should get the runner on that kind of grounder.
Dammit.
Fuckit! Damn, did touch, can't challenge.
So the proper strategy backfires. Can't predict baseball.
You fucked up the easy part! Dammit!
Ohhh, come on!
Bear the fuck down, guys!
Oy
Imploding.
Tied his ass up.
Whoa.
Justin Wilson. Go figure.
Ahhhhhhh.
Yes he McCann.
Yaaay!!!
I was just thinking, "Hit a home run, Brian." And then he did!!
McCann can!
Yay, Carlos!
Keep that up!
Now Carlos is happy.
SCORE HIM.
There ya go, Carlos!
Nice rip Carlos!
Good On all accounts.
[83] I have not seen that Medici show, by the way -- but I mean to. Maybe when Mad Men is over.
Whiff.
Okay, one more shot at a cushion.
Baltimore is on fire
Police appear to be passive. Like they don't want to shoot anybody.
Yay!!
A hit! A hit!
RBI!
Yes!!!
I like Stephen Drew now, despite myself.
That was a sweet rip.
Sweet, insurance!
And Carlos definitely has his head up his ass.
[90] Can't condone the rioters, but when a shackled guy goes into a police van and comes out with a severed spine, something ain't right.
Nice.
I was sure he'd walk Guyer.
So if he gets Kiermaier, Betances for four outs?
Nice hustle Didi!
Fabulous play, Didi.
Nice play, Didi. Looked confident.
Yep, looks like.
Well, that doesn't look like Betances at all.
just checking in...
LOVE the title of this post!!!
Love Hannah Davis
[105] Well, he scored an insurance run for us, so I think it counts as a good game.
[107] after hitting a double, no? yup, good game!
Very terrible mustaches. Please guys, shave!
Hustle hustle hustle gritner!
Go Go, Brett!
[108] Yes, and a real one, not like that one Brett just hit.
nice hustle by the gritty 'stache!
[106] Had too Google the name. I'm fast losing touch with popular culture.
Boooooooooo!
Scary A-Rod.
I remember scary A-Rod. He's not really back, is he?
Hmph. Squandered.
Strike up the band, Souza: you just got Delined.
Totally fooled
Man.
Betances is not a piss-poor pitcher, is he?
Ohhhh!
God, that wasn't even fair.
Jesus.
Hello Nasty.
Sweet. Dancin' Betances is back!
Holy moly.
That is just sick.
Blow those huge heaters by a hacker like Asdrubal, then that nauseous hook. Absolutely no chance.
fuck yeah, dellin!
that was really nice to watch.
It's such a luxury to have two shut-down pitchers in the bullpen.
I wonder if Dellin might move into the rotation, though. He has three top shelf pitches.
: )
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.
What if Brian was trying to do that? And also hiding it so he can do it again later?
Nah.
Monday night, Tampa Bay. Ye olde castle keep abandoned by the peers. The moat keeping the rable at bay.
Can't they at least give the corporate held seats to the guys in the mailroom?
The wide open spaces behind the plate is disgusting. What about hired seat fillers like at the Oscars and Grammys?
Dellin dealin' like Mo in '96. Automatic outs.
[129] Ken Boyer!
BA up to .193? Ugh.
It would bs great if Drew wasn't terrible this season.
Two, three more hits and McCann will score.
[130] we can dream, but it's exciting to watch.
Dangerous Didi gets walked.
Oooh.
You know your reliever has control problems when he walks one of our Gregorii.
OK, me.
Yep, control problems.
Is that an RBI? It is.
Ouch, that hurts!
HBP RBI!
c'mon, Ells!
hmmm, my roku feed is slow...
[137] Like
ooh, rbj - you ok?
[143] Roku tends to be slow, I've found.
[145] RBIs make the pain go away. Thanks for asking.
Miller time
I don't think I'd use Miller here. I know Joe will do it, because it's a Save situation, but he pitched yesterday. I'd rather have him available for the next two or three days.
Hmm
[149] Mo, instead?
Phew!
Had it all the way.
[151] I wonder what he's doing right now.
Two down!
loud out.
one more.
Long Island Hockey is over...
Mr. Miller, I presume? Nasty.
Got him!
Well done.
Cheers, y'all. Great game!
[151] 泣く...
betances & miller yet to give up a run this month..
they need a nickname.
Nice win, Team!
Nice pitching.
Strike three! Miller makes history. Night all.
13 - 8, right? That's good! A whole lot better than I expected.
I have to admit that I pegged this team for maybe 84 wins this year.
good job from the non-closer!
No, 12-8. Well, respectable. That's .600.
1st place!
Nice win. This team has numerous points of interest that to me seemed pointless at.the start of the season. Baseball!
[169] You should have known better. There are no pointless points.
The team was pointless, not the points. But by definition, aren't points pointless geometry speaking?
[170] You havn't been watching CNN..
[172] Hahahah! Very good.
