That would be nice.

Uh oh...another "First time the Yankees are facing a pitcher they haven't seen before" conundrum. Yanks go quietly in first.

So 2 out 2 on. Are they really starting to figure out the newbie?

Murphy has really regressed this year vs. hitting about .284 last year in limited action. He seemed to have a live bat.

White says I can't come to bed at 130 in the morning. she says it wakes her up. my choice is to watch the game and sleep on the couch or go to bed at 11. after 42 years of marriage, that doesn't sound half bad. that assumes CC will pitch a decent five innings.

That's wife not white.

Murphy has played more than I thought this year. So far 48 plate appearances vs. 85 all last year.

[5] I feel your pain. We're coming up on our 54th next month. Sometimes I'll watch later innings in bed with mute on so she can't hear.

Brett caught a break.

[0] it would be nice, but he gets paid anyway.

Flash and Lorenz, your morning zoo mayhem. NOT, but the name is correct.

Another rookie pitcher faces the Yanks. Is this his MLB debut?

So lousy strike call let's Tex get #40 rbi

[10] Yes

Gritty surrendered, that's embarrassing for the umps.

Gift RBI for Tex. this game will be ugly from now on.

[12] Thanks

Coleman: no TV in the bedroom but sometimes I'll listen/watch on my phone. But then I yell and that's a no no.

Beltran is SUCH a DH.

Damn shift.

Well that all sucked, CC deserves better. Just get the third out

[15] My wife wakes up when I grunt

Carlos due for a HR

I wonder if Cano likes playing in obscurity? The difference in salary if he stayed in NY would have been made up in multiples from local endorsements. He would have been the #1 face for all Spanish media, and high in mainstream media too. Now that his average is down, he is not getting any national endorsement either. I hope he likes the NW lifestyle...

[19] that sounds like something the late great Rodney Dangerfield would say.

Lately the wife accuses me of waking up by my snoring. I do not snore. My left side however is black and blue. (Sigh)

[21] Suzyn interviewed him tonight and he claims he's happy. Welcomed by fans, loves his teammates, yadda yadda. I don't believe him.

[23] It's physically impossible to know you don't snore. It's usually sleep apnea. If wife continues to complain, listen and get a sleep study. I did and boy do I sleep better now.

CC pitching well, and the Yanks now need to get to this Rookie to support him.

Nice play by CC on the 2 out squeeze. I

The Big Fella did not like that bunt.

Lip read. CC: "SWING THE EFFING BAT"

Hi team!

who tired to bunt? i'll have to watch it on the roku feed...

[31] Seager

Not Carpenter!

If I was a carpenter and you were a lady, would you marry me anyway, would you have my baby ? HE'LL NO.

why the fuck is carpenter being brought into the most important spot in the game???

[35] If I had a hammer….

Better yet, why did they used to bring relief pitchers in on golf carts and why did they stop?

Carpenter sucks
Sucks.

I have no idea what's going on. I pay for Premium Package and it doesn't work.

goddamn motherfucker.

FUCK YOU, Joe!!! Fuck You.

what an asshole. you *know* carpenter is gonna give up the lead. who gives a flying fuck that it's the 6th inning?! bring in Betances to put out the fire and pitch the 7th. let Justin Wilson pitch the 8th for tonight and Miller closes it out. fuck you and your binder. dammit!!!

[37] so does GI Joe for putting him in the game at THE most important time.

Anybody wanna accept Carpenter, Drew, and DoDo for some AA PROSPECTS?

what a bunch o' bollocks. total and complete horseshit managing.

i wish CC had gotten through 6. that last hit was a broken bat bloop too. i understand taking him out if you're gonna put Dellin in, but...

[32] huh. i'm surprised he did that.

thanks.

Feel sorry for CC. He actually pitched a good game

They wasted Betances in yesterday's game when this would have been the perfect spot for him to come in. But noooooo! He's the eight inning guy. Wish Joe would manage outside the box.

[21],[24] Could you picture Robbie telling Suzyn, "well I have to admit this is not what I imagined it to be when I got here; I thought the ball would be flying out of the park every time I got underneath it a little. At least that's what Griffey told me before he woke up and retired... hell, I miss Stan's Bar, Suzyn, I really do."

I can't watch every game, but when I do, I prefer not to see Carpenter in the game. What does anyone see in him in the Yankee organization that we don't? I think Joe plays him in spite.

Frigging DODO

oh. my. god.

FUCK YOU, DODO!!!

you are the WORST baseball player ever of all-time.

nauseating.

DidI, you are a Modamn fucking disgrace to base running!

Unbelievable!

So if DODO didn't fall down he'd have scored and tied the game.

dodo is terrible and pathetic. so fucking far beyond awful.

he and his range can get the fuck off the yankees. yesterday.

i'd rather have drew on the club, starting every freaking game.

Didi must be taking base running tips from Gritner.

OK, I admit that was a do-do move.

Alarmis: please not Drew. He sucks even more.

Didi makes Posada look like Rickey Henderson.

I'm going to go now... after reading the comments before I posted, the word doo-doo came to mind for some reason, and wouldn't you know it...

that was dodo on his own, i believe. there was no stop sign put up by the 3rd base coach...was there?

FUCK!

that shot of Joe's reaction to Didi was classic.

[57] Another reminder to give DiDi a long leash. Posada started out as a horrible baserunner and retired a horrible baserunner, but a most beloved Yankee.

absolutely pathetic. downright disgusting.

[61] really?

[60] i didn't see it. i know dodo got a hit, but i wish he remained on the bench where he began that game...

Our best hope is that Rodney is the Mariners closer. So there is always a chance.

[56] that's how bad dodo is. i prefer drew!

and, oh, btw, the beginning of my screen name is not "the." that's caused some confusion here over the years. if it was, i'd put a space in there, like The Alarmis. but i don't know what an "alarmis" is.

it's one word: thelarmis. say it like you would "thelonious" : )

Does anyone remember Dodo, the Kid From Outer Space cartoon?

[61] I don't know what's worse. A cement foot catcher who has terrible base running instincts or a fleet footed shortstop with great range that has terrible base running instincts.

[66] Hee-hee, at least you're the calm, reserved and reasonable type so there's no way to confuse your screen name with an "alarmist" >;)

[69] : )

he should've bunted ; )

i like this shreve kid. why couldn't he have come in during the 6th? i know he's young and doesn't have that experience, but how the fuck is he supposed to get the experience if he's never given the chance? carpenter has been given many chances and continues to prove inept at every fucking one of them.

i think the move for Tanaka tomorrow should be getting rid of both carpenter AND dodo!

[68] can you can compare a beloved catcher, team leader, clutch hitting, 20 HRs per year, 5 time all-star, multiple WS champ, on the bubble HoF candidate to DiDi, be careful.

lame, garrett.

tie the game, alexander.

goddamn it, purple lips. : /

fucking pathetic.

Should have gone to bed when the wife asked. Couch tonight not worth it.

[76] don't bait the purple lip afflicted support group.

Got a hole in me pocket.

[73] No. Just saying'. He's still young. Plenty of time.

This breakdown of fundamentals tonight is an insult to the legacy of the Yankees and their fans. Joe better do something...

i'll take a leadoff walk.

c'mon, Beli!

great. my favorite player is up.

Joe can bench Dodo and Drew. That's a stsrt.

[84] Don't worry, Brendan Ryan is coming back. Be still my heart.

So Dodo has the same number as Don Larson. In common: no runs no hits.

shocker. the worst player in the history of the game goes down on strikes with a swing reminiscent of his baserunning.

good job, mac.

i'd really love a wild pitch or balk!

Funny. The Mariner announcers refer to Rodney as one of the best closers on the game, yet his era is almost 7. Weird.

not a strike, blue.

Cmon Yanks. you can beat this guy. Even with Drew batting

OMG. DREW?

DREW!!!

drew > dodo

awesome.

Yay!

Even the losers get lucky sometimes! Yay Drew!

I told you Rodney was terrible. Being in Northwest I watch the M's a lot. Rodney blows whenever I watch.

RE: Drew. I was about to write "Rodney is toying with him." Glad I held back…oops

Ma and pa time on the radio for me...goodnight crew. go Yankees!

bye bye, robbie!

well, we all know dodo has range...
