Yanks won again last night (again with the 6-1)—Sox did too and they are this close to clinching the division.
Tonight is beautiful in the Bronx, not cold but the humidity is gone and it is cool. A hint of what is to come next Tuesday night when the Yanks, in all likelihood, host the Twins at the Stadium.
Stay healthy, keep chugging away, fellas.
Never mind the future:
Let’s Go Yank-ees!
Picture by Bags
Well that’s not a good way to start
Better
Judge with 51! (52)
Had to run to the store so I caught Gardy goes yardy and All rise and here comes the judge on the radio. Sweeeeeet!
Boom Boom! 90 wins ian there and so is the Serious. I'm feeling confident!
The Toe-Night Show may be the one of the most creative things I've ever seen.
Come on Astros.
1 pm start tomorrow
Nailed!
Great scoop and quick throw by Brett.
Bird dropping f-bombs on The Toenight Show. Huzzah!
Bird joins the party
Hi all!
[6] I absolutely love that show. It's helping put the joy back in baseball.
I seriously can't get over this team. I looked at playoff history last night. It's been an Ugly 5 years. It's almost blocked from my memory. Swept by the tigers ferfuck's sake. Oi!
Oy
Got to get the little things right.
Fuck
Sanchez is brutal.
Can he learn?
The Stros are raking E-Rod, that's nice to see.
Dammit, Gary. Catch the fucking ball, dude!
Motherfucker
With the Astros up by 6, this is an absolute must-win game. And forget that nonsense about Gray being on Severino's level.
Motherfucker.
[23] Pissed off minds think alike
Didn't the Cubs start the whole interview in the dugout after a homer a few weeks back? Something like that. Maybe not as elaborate as the Yanks, but they came up with the initial idea, methinks.
Getting the big things right is also important.
[25] It could be an old Cubs thing, actually. Starlin seems to be the main director in YS.
Fucking Lame!
Good start. Your name is holder, not hit him.
Wasting an opportunity to up the pressure on the Cheat Sawx
Well, these things happen.
But I do feel we may have overpaid for Sonny.
Really lame.
Boo.
Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Who is this fucking guy? JFC!
Jesus Christ.
Holder? Are you fucking kidding me?!?!?!? Thought that Girardi really wanted to catch the Bo-Sucks.
I thought it was really dumb to bring holder into a 1-run game. Division wasn't over. Now it is...
Well, relax and enjoy the show, then.
This isn't a spring training game or a "let's evaluate the young pitchers game because the games are meaningless " game, Joe.
Holder..??
Ouch! But somehow, deserved from a karmic perspective
OUCHIE!!!
Please be ok. At least it's not his throwing shoulder...
One run back
We'll take it.
Ok, cool.
Now, we need an earl weaver special!
Fuck this shit.
Yeesh
BR says Holder has pitched 39 innings this year. I've never heard of him.
[48] usually a garbage time pitcher. Inexplicable
I guess no new game thread. Fucking Blow Jays.
That's a good start
I'll take that for an RBI
Tanaka looking very good
I was staying up for the no-hitter. Guess I should crash now. Bring it home, boys.
One last thought, why do they cut Romine so much slack on the stolen bases. He is one of the worst catchers in all of baseball at throwing out runners. Blaming Tanka's splitters, high kick. Bullshit. Romine is beyond bad. Absolute garbage. Yet, Sanchez gets all the shit in the world for passed balls.
There's some garbage article in the Daily News saying Romine should catch the WC game. He sucks. And he can't hit. He should only be catching or even in the line up in emergencies.
Hot damn, Tanaka.
Damn, only a single.
Excellent outing from Tanaka.
So, Tanaka's opting out, isn't he?
Probably. I'd resign CC to be #4 starter, Let Monty continue to develop
I agree with that.
I like that we've stolen 4 bases today!
Jeez Dellin.
WTF is with DB?
That's two down.
Phew, three gone!
90 wins! Way exceeding my expectations for the season.
Glad we got he shutout.
Can't trust Dellin in the WC game. At least Chapman seems fixed.
Yeah, 90 wins!
Betances made it interesting in the 8th. What a great game. Bird was dazzling today on offense and defense, not to mention Tanaka being perfect through 5 2/3.
Well at least Cone is in the booth
Dumb running by Bird, but he's looking good with the bat.
I hate AJ Pieceofshit
52 (53)! Wowser
Sentenced!
It's a start, but we'll need more.
Damn. Shit Sox are copying us.
What the fucking hell are you doing? That's helping out the other team you stupid shit
Good job, CC
We're gonna lose the division today...
Shit, 5-0 Boston
[79] Time for Dellin work?
'Stros are threatening. Let's hope for a Boston meltdown.
Go'Stros!
Ruh roh
I'm still mad that GI Joe went to Holder in a 1-run game the other day. And I'm still pissed that he didn't ask for a review when Didi had that awkward slide into 3rd late in a game last month. He was safe!
Price came in and got 2 outs with no runs allowed. Dammit. Some callup is at bat now...
Ooh, a walk. Bases loaded for Springer, who's a monster. I'd really love a to ahead granny!
Crap. 5-2 cheat sawx
Phew! Some insurance, please
We're up 2-1, but they're now up 6-2...
I guess no net.
One down
Two down
Nice curve, aroldis
Three down!
I guess 91 wins isn't enough to best the cheat sux.
What a great season for CC!
McCann homered off the guy with the stoopidest setup a pitcher ever had. 6-3 in the 9th, man on 2nd, 1 out.
Wild Card it is...
Oh well, at least the Yankees made the Cheat Sux earn it.
Earn it. Ha!
Well this season has flown by.
4+6+3=2
Nice DP!!
Stanton's batting leadoff today to try to get to 60 homers.
Good thing it's padded. Man, face first.
Ouchie!
Twins are in a rain delay. Let's hope it lasts so they have to play late.
Good. Netting will be significantly extended in the Bronx and Tampon!
They're playing this game rather quickly.
Safe on a pick off!
Off the bag!
girardi making this challenge in a meaningless game is hilarious
Wow. Amazing catch for that replay! Man in scoring position. Let's tie this puppy up.
J-Mo lookin good.
does anyone know if and how i can get mlb tv for tuesday and (hopefully) the postseason? the only link i can find is for the 2016 postseason.
Clap clap clap. Excellent job, Monty.
Is Castro in the game? He's at .300 even. I know it's silly, but still a nice round number and would be cool to have one regular reach the mark.
Great rookie season for J-Mo!
WTF is Joey Joe Joe doing?
Monty was cruising.
I think Castro is out of the game now...
Yeah, I figured he'd let J-Mo go through a full 6. Alas...
[116] If you use that fucking nickname again, I'll have to fly out to Atlanta and SLAP you.
[119] Oh, it's on ... you've got some slappin' comin'!
[116] Agreed! Maybe he'll be the next Pettite?
I love good Yankees LH staters ...
It was Gator who made me a Yankee to begin with!
Yeah, Castro went 0-1 and Joe pulled him immediately.
i've been very skeptical of montgomery but finishing his rookie season with 28 starts and a sub 4 era is awesome
cult - why???
I'm paying tribute to my friends from the Allman Brothers: Jaimoe the drummer and Jamo the old drum tech. So, J-Mo is meaningful to me.
But you should come to Atlanta anyway!
And, yeah, I was a huge Louisiana Lightning fan as a kid!
It's JoMo ffs. Lol.... I have been worried about Tuesday for days already. And the Goddamn start time is well past 8 of course. Just got Home to watch this last regular season game. What a ride.
My first day of the fall quarter at the music college where I teach is Tuesday, so I'll be working through the entire game and won't have a second to check...
[126] I just hate any version of [x]-[xxx] as a nickname.
It was dumb and lazy when it started ... now, it's even worse.
Kaboom!
[129] I'm going to be home ... can you check your phone?
Tied up! Hope it doesn't go extras.
Every day's a Holliday!
Tie game
[130] Also ... adding a "y" ...
Oh, I hear ya on that type of nickname. I don't love it either and wouldn't normally use it. I was excited that I could make a J-Mo one to pay tribute to two of my friends. The ABB family has had a rough year and it's been nice for me to call this kid, who I like, J-Mo : )
Miguel with another major league double!!
Nuts!
Yeah, the Nix-y and Hicks-ie thing is really tired.
Sev-vy makes me ... punch - y
Romine is the BEST defensive catcher of all-time. Start him on Tuesday!!! : /
Sevy, I kinda like for some reason.
what is the team record for passed-ball-strikeouts allowed in a season? i feel like we used to see it once every 5 years. not all on sanchez.
"i never forget how lucky i am ... until the game goes over 3 hours, then life sucks"
[142] Don't make me come over there ...
Alright ... last 3 of the 162 to go!
LAST ONE!
Uhhhh ... I'm a doofus. I thought the Yankees were winning 2-1 and that was the end of the season ...
::facepalm::
Carry on ...
Welp that's a wrap. Tuesday can't come soon enough.
Good season gang. 91 wins; 20 games over .500.
See Y'All TUESDAY!!!
Except for Nostra ...
:(
