Time for our boys to get even.
Never mind the Gashouse Gorillas:
Let’s Go Yank-ees!
Picture by Bags
Go Yankees!
Hey, I am getting the Yankee game!
Hell yeah!
Gritner!
Go go Gritner!
[2] i'm not getting it anywhere. mlb/roku is blacked out. mlb.tv on my laptop is giving me a radio feed. fox has cards vs. reds.
Geez, Colabello is kind of a stud. I didn't realize.
Next time the Twins don't like a power hitter they have, Cashman should jump.
Wooohooo, Big Mike in the House!
nice inning!
suzyn's accent is sooo bad. bawtom of the inning...
Stay solid, Big Mike!
[9] There are no bad accents.
Chased!!!
Holy smokes!
Chase!
Headley, double the pleasure
Atta boy, Chase!
Okay, we need the next two homers with men on base.
[11] well, if my students play accents instead of ghost or tap strokes next week on their finals, i'm taking points off!
Oh, man. Uh oh.
Crap, now I'm switched over to the Reds game. See you for part II.
suzyn just pulled an RI!!!
Jesse Barfield was clearly the answer to which player hit 50 homers for both the yanks and blow jays. this, apparently, confused sterling so she had to clarify that this did not happen in one season. i imagine that would be some kind of record.
Good to have Brettski back.
[20] You should hear my accent.
I figured it out, Drew has pictures.
[22] are any of your lectures online?
if not, gimme a call later and we'll have a drink over the line!
i used to have a very thick NY accent. after a few years in PA, i started to purposefully (purposely?) change it. now, there are certain words i can't say without a strong NY accent and it comes back quick!
When coaching I always ask the players on the bench how many points we need to win by one. I'll say five runs in this one.
fucking joey bats.
Yeah, Joey Bats it. Kind of expected. Well, just a solo.
I don't really have a New England accent. Or a New York accent. I guess Suzyn has both! In a way I do too, but really in my case they sort of averaged out and disappeared into a fairly generic American. (My mom's family is from New England, though my mom was born and grew up in Manhattan.)
We seem to lose a lot more with our shifts than we gain. Is that (i) just an illusion, (ii) bad luck, or (iii) bad strategy?
Yikes.
Not a good inning for Pineda. And he knows it!
Go get 'em, Mike. Kill.
Whew!
Now we're talking!
Double your pleasure, double your runs!
[28] yup, that's what i say - i have a pretty straightforward american accent. sometimes i get pretty new york - esp. when i'm drunk, super tired, or angry : )
certain words always come out with a thick NY accent - chocolate, water, coffee, daughter...
hey-rod!
i missed the homer. we have our neighbors here...
fuckin' fuck fuck.
Oh, man.
Freaking EE.
motherfucking bullshit.
Motherfucking blue hays and that asshole trot. Fuck!
lotsa bandwagon blow jay fans in the house, huh? that pisses me off something fierce.
ellsbury has been struggling...
bullpen.
Well that was terrible.
bollocks.
oh, good!
All worked out though.
Now time for runs.
OK coaches, are we going for this with Dellin against Their 2,3,4 or sticking with Wilson until we get a lead?
[46] dellin.
Now we need that fifth run.
weak.
FUCK YOU, BAUTISTA!!!
FUCK YOU.
Seething.
i wish ellsbury would steal bases again...
back-to-back walks to the top of the order. speed on the basepaths. bullpen move.
if we don't fucking score here, we don't deserve to make the playoffs.
score, take the lead, miller shuts 'em down. do it. make it happen.
LET'S GO YAN-KEES!! !!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
gotta double steal here.
oh, good.
gritner should steal now...
yes, plays!
MAC!!!!
tie game. gritner on 3rd w/ 1-out.
of course, it comes down to Alex. let's go A-ROD!!!
another bullpen move. wasting guys for Game 2!
a-rod 0-3 vs. osuna, w/ 3 k's.
inside 1-0
high and inside. chin music. fans boo.
2-0
low and outside.
3-0
green light? i don't think so.
swing and a miss.
3-1
infield in.
low, ball 4.
bases loaded.
NO DP!!!
alex is pulled for a pinch runner. it's pirela.
helps avoid double play...
shouldn't it be noel?
outside.
1-0
Rats.
FUCK!!!!
goddamnit, chase. fly out to shallow right. gritner couldn't score.
motherfucker.
c'mon, bird.
earn those pinstripes!
Bird was robbed.
FUCK!!!
pennington. motherfucker.
Fail.
pathetic.
extras in game 1. of course...
Looks like free baseball. Since we suck at extras let's get it over without using every arm in the pen. Watch out for Bautista. .
miller kicked ass!
4 k's in 2 innings, including donaldson and bow-teeeeeest-uh in the 10th.
gotta be loup.
[75] beat.
beat loup.
c'mon ackley. show you're a true yankee! ; )
hey, it's NOT a pinch stand there!
Heartbreak ahead.
nothin' doin'.
mitchell in now and throws 4 straight balls to his first batter.
FUCK!!!!!!!!!
wow. a walk and hit batsmen. with 2 strikes no less...
yup, we're doomed.
Eat fucking shit, blue. Are you fuckimg kidding!
Mitchell, you fucking suck, too.
fucking douche fucker.
another goddamn walk.
bases loaded for free. nobody out. gonna lose this won and again tonight. oh, and we'll lose tomorrow too. pretty soon, it won't fucking matter.
ok. BIG strikeout.
please get a dp right fucking now.
bullpen. lefty. who is it?
i hope it's shreve over pazos...
yup, shreve.
must get DP!!
fuck. coltrane pinch hitting.
this is a bad move...
wow.
3-0
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!
unfuckingbelievable.
Good to know Jay s could have gone to plate blindfolded with ping pong paddles this inning and still taken the lead. What a fucking joke!
what are the chances donaldson goes 0-6?
Eat a big bag of fucking shit.
wow. walks in a run.
FUCK YOU!!!!!!
Sprinkles, like strikes, are for winners.
Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooopoooooooooooo
Walk him. Better than a salami.
holy shit.
dickfucker.
Too painful to watch.
imagine if a-rod didn't get pulled and was able to hit before...
i'm shit the blow jays will reach double digits...
You asked for Double Trouble A.B. and you got it - four runs on one hit so far. Eleventh inning. It's on FOX so I can watch. Glad to see the banter up and at 'em. Hi everyone. Do we have a chance at the Serious?
[104] i'm not sure we'll have a shot at the 2nd wild card when it's all said and done...
What happened?
Imagine if Pineda didn't hang one to that miserable fuck, EE.
Keep the line moving.
we gave up too many to make this threat real...
[105] you really don't wanna know...
[106] or, if pennington didn't make that play...
motherfucker.
[109] brief explanation if you don't mind. I've been watching game day. Do I really want to know....
woulda be somethin' if didi walked and drew tied it up with a granny...
[111] i've been listening to john/suzyn.
mitchell walked two and hit a batter. chasen walked in eleventy billion runs and gave up a hit. we totally beat ourselves by being wild as fuck. 4 runs on 1 frickin' hit. i think it was 5 walks and an HBP...
UGLY!
worst game of the season by far.
Fuck a fucking duck. Eat shit blue jays you sons of bitches.
Holy Hell, that was brutal. Almost comically brutal. Can't say the Yanks don't have it coming to them after owning the Jays for so long but that doesn't mean we have to like it.
Glad I missed the first game.
Dodo
Man.
This is embarrassing.
God damned Blue Jays
Losing already. Shocking...
Oh this is getting worse all the time
Jesus.
Of corse another run scores
This is fugly.
Let the rains come.
What. Shiite way to end 5774!!!
Fucking hell.
What is up with all these Blue Jays fans?
Beyond embarrassing
Makes me nauseous...
6-0 already. Wow.
What a bunch of fucking bollocks.
Yay, a hit
Good for Papi.
Amazing competitor. Well liked by his peers.
"This is our fucking city".
Yes! Thank you Brett
And now a rain delay
And we're back
Didi with an rbi
Last I saw it was 6-0. This is an improvement I suppose. This has got to be the least attended game in new stadium history. Oi!
OH, JESUS CHRIST!!!
I should have just not tuned in. Clown. Show.
Ugh. Game over. Night all.
We're going to be swept, aren't we?
No question.
Yay, Brett.
Fuck today straight to Hell.
I can't see this team making the playoffs now. Or if they there, it will be over fast.
[Sigh]
[147] yup.
total fucking horseshit. at this point, i wouldn't be surprised if we're surpassed by texass and/or the twinkies. maybe even the fucking hatelos.
it doesn't matter. if we sneak our way in, we're not making it past the first wild card game. and, if we somehow do, there's no way we're winning the first series. we fucking suck and this whole entire baseball thing is a bunch of fucking bollocks.
the yankees are wasting my precious time. fuck this bullshit...
