Here at Bronx Banter we’re not so much on top of the news these days. Due to my work schedule posting is down considerably—and just as the Yanks head into their losing seasons, so like a Yankee fan, right? Anyhow, I’m resigned to this being a losing season so I don’t feel any urgency in letting you know what you already know—the Yanks lost again last night. Course, they’ll be at it again tonight and we will be rooting. Cause that’s what we do no matter how cruddy the squad is.
Never mind bitchin’:
Let’s Go Yank-ees!
So now what am I supposed to say when Red Sox Nation chants, "Yankees Suck!"?
I mean, what can I say? "Yep, big time."
A-Rod to the DL mildly strained hammy
Lead off double to be squandered in 3, 2, 1.
Some parts of baseball you can predict
Here we go again..... this time against a spot starter.
Jeez, how good are the Boids gonna be once Jones starts hitting?
0/3 RISP. so what else is new.
Thanks for nothing, Brett
One hit shut out.
Past is prologue.
Double play would be nice here
I'll take a K.
One more
Beautiful golden week holiday here. Many festivities around town. heafing out soon, hopefully they'll score a miracle run. (How much longer do they stick with Chase??)
Hey, one of them whatchamacallits. I think it's called a hit
Oh no. We have two guys on base at the same time. That's not allowed, is it? The umpires will notice soon.
A run!
Well waddyaknow.
Kay and Kenny seem a bit subdued..bored?
A Run!! Huzzah!!
What??
Is this a... rally?
A second run!
Ooof.
That was pretty nearly a three-run homer. Missed by three seats. Two?
Almost a tater!
Another run!!!!!!
Maybe unearned. E1?
Wait, what another one? I'm getting dizzy here
See, a fan spirits are lifted when the game is favorable. Wonder why today was depressing? Could it be Lonn Trosts' friend has a clear path to Cleveland? It feels better that the team is winning. It's complicated.
Come on CC! Make it like the old days.
From a Bronx Tale. "What do your friends call you? They call me Carsten.
I think I'll call you CC"
I think if we could get, say, two more runs, thelarmis should deem it to be a double-digit day. Closest we're gonna get.
Dang! Some help by the infield, but CC is tossing his best game of the season.
That was a reversal of possible negativity!
DD..nice play. Is that 4 DPs?
The Didi-Castro commercial is the highlight of the season. Yup!
[30] Three. Third inning, fourth, sixth.
I like Didi & Starlin goring forward. Just need to get some of the deadwood off be roster..
And how about CC tonight? So far.
Caleb Joseph. How many Old Testament names does a guy need?
No, no, no, take CC out after this inning.
Very satisfying end to a stellar outing!
Holy shit.
Dang.
A surfeit of runs!
I... don't know what to say.
I'm sure the commissioner is going to come down on the Yankees for a multiple runners violation.
Ouch, but I'll take it
An OuchBI!
So, does this mean no Dellin?
I guess it does.
A-yup. Got a weekend coming up vs. the Shit Sox
Yeah, and a long string of games with no days off. It's the right call. Just always a bit disappointing!
Kirby Yates, ladies and gentlemen. Walking Joey Rickard with a seven run lead.
Might see Dellin yet!
Kirby Yates.
See you again, Kirby, but maybe not soon.
Oh Durward Kirby!
Hmmm
Filth! (But not a strike).
Denkucy Kirby Saturday night v
Heh.
Well, a shut-down half from Yates would have been nice, but that was fun too.
Okay!
Shutout: preserved.
Betances: cured.
WTF? I leave to watch Caps/Pens and the yanks go bananas!
[56] keep watching Hockey, until the cup is won. CC pitched like the dependable hoss we loved.
Our nightmare is over. Can the Yankees be great again?
