Here’s hoping that’s today. Like to see our boys get off the mat and score a mess o runs—Mr. Judge, Mr. Sanchez, we’re looking to you.
Never mind the orange:
Let’s Go Yank-ees!

goddamn, i can't stand joe fuck.
game is on regular fox today, not FS1.
And the owner of the local Fox affiliate is in a fees dispute with Directv so I have to watch on my iPad.
8-pitch leadoff at-bat for brett. swung at a lot of high balls. ump called a low strike. fucklander's breaking stuff = nasty.
why swing at that, judge?
that place is LOUD. roof is closed. this is going to become a house of horrors for us, isn't it?
well, that was pretty lame...
judge has swung through just about every breaking pitch he's seen this postseason. those 2 were pretty nasty though.
To Hell with that little midget.
unbelievable how excited joe fuck is that altuve hit a single on the first pitch. i'm sure if judge hit a 5-run homer, the booth would be silent.
Greetings folks. Long time no see. Hola thelarmis.
@5 Wait till they're back at YS.
those first two outs came so easily...
[10] OYF!!! Hey there, friend :)
[11] yeah, our Stadium was rockin' last week!
hi all
ok, good.
seamus!
Jesus Christ, Gary.
jesus. so much for gary giving us the lead there...
ooh, almost dropped it. that would've ruled.
fucklander already gets to go home to kate upton. that should be enough. he should throw batting practice to the yanks!
safe. closer than i thought it would be...
nice hustle Starlin
i really like aaron hicks.
i'd like to like him more right now.
i think i like him a little less now. fickle fans...
Great. Just great.
30 pitches for V in 2 innings. would be great if there was a bit more contact.
WTF about football!!!
what. the. FUCK!!! eat a dick, blue.
WTF is with the strike zone! !!
Robbed.
beli: love you, man. hit into a double play early in the count. thanks
ok...NOW the DP.
good block, gary
sure wish Sanchez would turn his glove around when the ball hits the dirt.
yes. . the way they wet down the front of the plate made that an easy DP
I like it. Make jv work this inning!
oh, man. FUCK!
Dammit!
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!
red dick robbed a double, if not a homer, from chase.
I didied off the couch. Looked gone immediately. Dammit!
6am..mumble mumble...espresso...no score....letsgoyankees
Come on, that thing's straighter'n straight.
Yes!
Looks like Gardner thinks he's out.
Oh, boy. If he's out that is a colossal fuck up.
why in the hell did he go for 3?
fuck yeah, gritner!
fucklander pretty sure it'll be overturned. fuck. it will be.
he's out. DAMMIT!!!
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!
that is truly moronic
ugh
Brett, Brett, Brett. Sigh
Gardy trying just a bit too hard to make some magic.
Unusually stupid play by Gardner.
These goddamn motherfuckers had to do everything perfectly to get Brett out. Jesus fucking Christ.
At least we are spared from watching Judge strike out for the first rispfail of the game.
perfect throws yesterday and today. sickening.
Great relay, bad decision by Gardy with two out :(
booth saying this is on espada, not brett.
A bad break for the Yankees, buck? You don't say.
Brett, understandably, is still an early twentysomething between the ears when he's blazing the basepaths.
Eat shit, reddick.
great job, sevy!
Need to stop giving away outs on the basepaths.
Nope. My bad. Gritner had slowed down rounding 2nd and was (smartly) settling for a double. Then he say Espada waving him on, and tried for the base. It was Espada's error.
that's low and outside, blue.
need to get a new 3rd base(ment) coach. espada's been shitty for years. remember when Tex got super mad at him?
Strike 1 to Judge was ball 4 to the Astros hitter. What else is new.
Blue...
that's really low, blue. you fucking SUCK at umpiring. go to hell.
That's not a strike, either.
that's a great bender right there. dammit.
and a lazy fly ball. crap.
Jv beat the Yankees in 06, 11, and now looks like he could go 15 innings today.
A Vin Scully "bubble"
that was nice!
i'll take the strike. we need a bunch more calls like that to 'even' it up.
oh, no.
Damn
shades of Jeffrey Meyer!
possible fan interference. jeffrey maier part ii. doubt it'll be overturned; it was heading out...
Tex Meier!
It would have been out but he touched it on the field side of play.
Yanks are hanging tough but haven’t gotten many breaks yet.
You didn't even catch it, kid. Throw him out anyway.
good thing we have good camera angles on borderline home runs
Correa is so good..these ‘Stros worry me
oh, no. please don't be hurt.
[83] Many? Not any.
I had the feeling that Judge shied away because the kid was there
we need the yankee bats to come alive this inning
Kids glove was over the wall when the ball hit it. How can you extrapolate that it would have ricocheted into the stands?
that's really fucking low, you asshole fucking ump.
i agree that the glove was over the wall and judge held up 'coz of the kid. we're getting hosed on everything this series thus far.
The pitches that register about 2 baseballs bellow the box that are called strikes are my favorite.
Birds k resulted from the terrible strike 1 call
bruno mars looked *terrible* on that swing.
[95] yup.
[95] it was a terrible call and verlander has gotten quite a few of them, but he did then get 2 fastballs right down the middle
some of these strike calls are brutal.
outside you blind bat before the double
Was Verlander pitching this well in Detroit??
Nice job Aaron!
Hicksy!
do these umps watch replays of their horrible calls on a nightly basis? they really should. in fact, it should be mandatory. i'm sure there are video workers who could quickly put together a compilation of the questionable calls. they should have to view it and take notes on it all the time.
hahaha wow
what the fuck? double? should be a fucking homer!
game of inches. it's killing me...
Toddfather!
Ground rules homer! Lol...
Wedgie!!
Almost went through the screen
boom goes Frazier
another run would have been nice, but I feel good that we're hitting hard against JV
oh, no. is sevy hurt? fuck.
Sevi hurt?
How hurt is Sevy???
Ruh roh, Sevy out.
We got a burn burner here. Great fun.
Is it just me, or are these commercial breaks interminable.
Luis has to be hurt. Wonderful.
Had to be the wrist…
looked like glove hand
the left hand is so bad that he can't pitch righty? they had come out a few batters before that for something... crap.
Dang. Whut happened?
I love how easy Hicks makes catching pop flies look. I was always (still am when I play) terrified by high flies in the OF
Boat, they go on and on and on
Ohayo, Boatzilla! Rainy cool AM, perfect watch baseball on the couch day, right?
that's a strike, you fucking asshole.
another bad strike call!
That is a strike for jv. Ball 4 for the Astros.
nice! 11 pitches for kahnle. gotta send him out for the 6th too.
great play by Bird to keep the DP option open
My Japanese grandmother is 89 and looks faster than McCann..
[125] Ohayo. I've been watching on my futon since 5 am. I can get up oily when it's important. (*J*)
Nice play by Didi. Changed feet and still got both runners.
Can't replace Sevy for the LCS, cuz that means he's ineligible for the WS.
we have jordan montgomery and jaime garcia for starters. i hope sevy's fine to pitch later this series...
Judge has zero chance. Absolute zero.
[135] Those two names don’t make me feel confident..
Judge will never be able to hit that pitch. I hope he learns that someday.
Fuck verlander.
really fucking weak. astros kinda seem unbeatable right now. especially, with the umpiring and bad breaks...
[140] Yet we are tied!
[141] true! though it feels like we're losing...
Judge may need to move down in the lineup at this point?
Kahnle has easy cheese..
fuck yeah, tommy!
ok TK
Sit down, little guy. I don't care if you don't like it.
KKKahnle!
Great job, Tommy
[147] Inadvertant, am sure Kahnle is not a grand wizard. I remember first time seeing the Kokusai Kogyo Kaisha logo of triple K here and thinking maybe I should tell them.. :)
3rd verse, same as the 1st.
gary,gary, gary. awful at bat
wtf are you swinging at??? : /
I know Verlander is great but why help him by swinging at everything?!
SO painful. Had a damn pitch to hit, too. So painful.
[149] Dang. I thought that would slip through the radar. Big branding error by Native Creative.
beautiful bendy, d-rob!
What the hell is Camping World?
Fuck.
Why is Beltran still in baseball?
whew
Good. Dave for the 8th, too.
Runs, please.
[159] Veteran Presents
Right there, Todd.
Give 'em hell, Jersey Boy!
really? 12 K's for fucklander?
Is there a puppy punching channel? That would be more pleasant to watch.
Yanks have held the best O in baseball to 3 runs in 16 innings...and it won’t matter if they can’t score
motherfucker
What a joke.
Just hold them one more inning and the Yanks will get that go-ahead run in the 9th. Promise.
They are really helping him out.
[171] alex? alex belth? is that you?! ; )
d-rob!
Here we go. Keeping Verlander in makes sense. But the Yanks are gonna get him.
GIT IM BOYS!
All Hail, Mr. Robertson!
173) C'est moi!
JV is going to leave a hanging curveball this inning.
FUck, that 0-1 pitch was his. Damn.
Judge has to stop whiffing at some point..
nice didi. now: steal second, third, and home! ; )
DiDi! DiDi!
Gary has been awful...time to lay down the law!
crap
do it again, bird!
122pitches and he hits 96mph..
I'm gonna have a heart attack here...
weak ass motherfucking bullshit.
Welp, you know the Astros are gonna win it now, dammit.
Altuve walk off inevitable
Sigh
How in the world does Altueve NOT do something big in this inning?
How'd the run score?
Go ahead and bunt, dickweed. Chapman ain't CC.
of course.
Ugh, that swing looked like me in the batting cage against the super fast machine (80mph)
Inevitable
Frazier drove in Hicks.
But this time Jose is stranded, right?
I hate this Altuve worship
[199] Yeah. It's tiring.
Ugh
oh, dear god. he was dead to rights.
gary couldn't catch the fucking ball. are you kidding me???
WTF just happened
Fail, everywhere fail.
Mofuckingdammit
How was he safe?
what could they possibly be looking at?
seemed like a safe slide into 2nd.
judge was casual throwing it to didi.
Interference at 2nd. Fuck that shit!
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
[208] Didi was blocked.
How did Gary drop that??
Verducci just compared Fucklander to Gibson and Koufax. Eat shit, ya hack.
[212] It was buried in the dirt. No bounce.
That was brutal.
throw was an in-between hop. he needed to stay back closer to the plate. it's done. just move on and win.
We've been down like this before. No worries.
correa did look like he went into didi intentionally. i guess that's not interference but it's pretty dirty baseball.
If Judge hit Castro the cut off man he would've thrown him out by 75 feet.
Astros forced Yanks to make a play. And Judge was good getting to the ball but his throw didn't go to Castro the cut off man but to Didi and Didi’s throw home were not great, Sanchez couldn't make the catch and Altuve willed the run home.
To repeat. Astros, aggressive—like the Yanks had been, but unlike the Gardner play, where everything went well for the Astros D, almost everything went wrong for the Yanks here.
Losing twice 2-1 is a kick in the nuts no matter how you look at it. Good news is that they were RIGHT there in both games and legit, Keuchel and Verlander were great. It's not just that the Yanks are pressing or striking out too much, Verlander consistently pumped fastballs past Yankee hitters all day. Got to give it to him.
It's all on CC. He wins game 3 then I love Sonny G in Game 4.
Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
D-Day will save... his best swing for a big spot.
The Astros are on double secret probation.
There's a Boone joke that someone here will make better than I ever could.
[222] Two BSs means it's true.
I would play Romine at catcher in game 4 with Sanchez as the DH. DH has become DO = Designated Out.
