I really don’t care that the Orioles celebrated their playoff clinching in the Bronx, and I only marginally care that Gleyber Torres continues to remind me of perhaps my favorite Aaron Boone quote of all time. (Name that quote in the comments for extra credit.)
Here’s the one thing I truly care about — the Yankees will clinch tonight. Book it!

"OWWWW MY KNEE! I CAN'T BELIEVE I WAS DUMB ENOUGH TO PLAY PICK UP BASKETBALL IN THE OFFSEASON! NOW THE YANKEES WILL HAVE TO TRADE FOR A GENERATIONAL TALENT THAT WILL GET THEM ONE CHAMPIONSHIP!"- Aaron Boone
is it that quote?
I think I established myself as an OK player.
I cut my dog's walk short so I wouldn't miss Judge's 1st at bat. 3-0 with 6 straight hits. See ya in spring training, Marcus. Wooof.
The thing is, this isn’t on Stroman.
First batter, ground ball to Volpe, safe by a blink.
Second batter, possible DP grounder, just last Volpe.
Third batter, jam shot just over a leaping Volpe.
Fourth batter, routine fly that Domínguez simply missed. Two runs.
Fifth batter, ground ball up the middle. One run.
Sixth batter, ground ball between Torres and Rizzo.
Seventh batter, tailor made double play ball to Chisholm, bobbled, lucky to get an out at second.
It was indeed a trainwreck, but it could’ve been a 1-2-3 inning.
Thank for the play by play. All I wound up seeing was the Dominguez gaffe replay on twitter. I'm glad i missed the inning.
Howdy. Ugh, this isn’t good.
Alright, Volpe
That, however, is not.
Jeez, does this team want the division or not?
Not
See, this is Clay Holmes time. Low leverage situation.
Ok, no more puddy-catting around. Go for the jugular tonight
Good job, Stanton
Jeez, blue
Oh fer crying out loud, once again strike three, not a ball, Blue.
I'm going to need major freakout control when the post-season begins. Last year was a bizarre hiatus.
Hell yeah! Get that man going!
Ha, walking the terrorists worked. And some insurance.
Note to Boone, this is not Holmes proof.
Verdugo as defensive replacement is acceptable
58!
Doink.
No Boone, not Holmes proof
Ok, Verdugo, you made the post season roster. And double digits!
Two.
AL East Champions!
