Some kind of onions win for the Yanks last night as they snuck by the Twins, 2-1. Dellin Betances walked the bases loaded in the 8th but he was rescued by Aroldis Chapman who struck out Joe Mauer on three pitches and then got Byron Buxton to fly out to right on the first pitch he saw. Chapman was dominant in the 9th as the Yanks got a big time win. Aaron Judge hit his 44th (word to Tino—20 years ago!).
Only drag was that the Red Sox won in extra innings…again. The O’s blew a big lead, no surprise there. That’s just the way it goes this summer.
Raining lightly in the Bronx but I hope they get this one in. Wonder if the Twins dare bunt against ol’ C.C.
Never mind the slickers:
Let’s Go Yank-ees!
Picture by Bags
Rats, rain delay thanks to remnants of Jose.
1 pm start tomorrow too. How about a good old fashioned day night DH tomorrow? Off day Thursday.
Tigers in a delay too
Per RAB 8:10 start
Yay, baseball
Boo, bunt
D'oh!
Safe.
Yeah, safe
Not a good start so far for the big fella.
That's a shit call by the ump. Not entirely close. And it's the crew chief. And he blew last night's sb. Oi!
No RBI for you!
Nice one, big fella!
Now, let's shut the door!
Nicely done, limited damage
That dude is fast.
Yeah, don't think CC is gonna catch Carlton in the K department. 1300 more. Still, third is not a bad spot.
Blargh ... Bird is the turd.
[15] Oops, confused Bird with another batter ...
Ugh, these Minnesota radio guys are not very enjoyable to listen to, may have to switch to Ma&Pa if they keep this up.
C'mon Gardy!
Gritty!
Tied up!
Grittner!
[17] Don't do it, man! Life is too short for that!
Rats!
Just too far off the end of the bat.
Buggerfuck.
[21] Hee-hee..but the Minny guys with their 'he's a real blue collar grinder type player' thing is annoying. (No points for guessing the ethnicity of the 'blue collar' millionaire ballplayer..)
C'mon CC, shut down these young Twins!
Phew, thought he might have hit that too hard to make it to 2nd.
I like Starlin but he may be the worst player to get to 3000 hits in his career...still very impressive but he has a lot of holes in his game.
I wish Joey Joe Joe was giving Wade more shots at this point ...
Taco!
CAN SOMEBODY MOVE A FUCKING RUNNER UP?!?!?!?
Ok, time to let the dogs out and refresh the drink.
Gritty does it again! Bye Bye Berrios
That'll do, Gritty ... that'll do.
Garsh darn it I hate it when I have to leave and the Yankees score.
Nice!
I'll accept that emergency stay sac fly from the Judge
Nicely done.
CC doing the do.
Dylan Gee..ex-Met?
Yeeowch
I men you have to laugh because your legs are crossed
Bollocks!
I accept that oopsie!
Yes! E3!
Rats
PHEW!
This is past my bedtime these days, and after dealing with a 100 degree fever to start the week, I'm done. Night all
Yeesh ... LET'S SCORE SOME RUNS!!!
The Orioles are without use.
Now they're cooking with grease.
Grrrrr .... DAMMIT
Atta boy, Castro!
MOAR RUNS PLZ!!!
Really hope that Houston holds on for top seed in the playoffs..want to avoid Cleveland at all costs in the ALDS
Damn. Chapman is still human.
[53] Houston is no picnic, but I hear ya.
Smoke this dude, Chappy.
Just win! Cheers, y'all. Zzzz...
Nice, solid win.
Glad it's a day game today, since I'll be in celebrating the holidays tonight. Wishing all of the MOTs a happy new year. Ah, let's make that a happy new year to all of the Yankee faithful!
And away we go
I accept that running into an out.
Man, Bartolo is still pitching, can't believe it.
Shit
twins look like they know exactly what type of pitch is coming on every pitch right now
Hot diggity, tied up.
Dropsie!
Sutcliffe is insufferable in the booth. Glad I'm headed to work soon.
Nice back-to-back dinger by judge & el gary!! Let's get more here.
Short outing for Sevy. That 3rd inning was rough...
C'mon, Bird. No DP. Get the run in.
That's what I'm talkin about!
Now, let's plate both of these runners in scoring position!!
Yes, a lead.
Yay, got them both in.
Ugh. Never like to see that
Gift gouble digits.
Clint joins the hit parade
I accept that sweep!
