How about some runs for C.C. tonight?
Yo Mighty Score Truck (seen here on 30th street off 6th Ave two days ago)–bring it on home.
Jorgie gets the start at first…
Derek Jeter SS
Curtis Granderson CF
Mark Teixeira DH
Alex Rodriguez 3B
Robinson Cano 2B
Russell Martin C
Jorge Posada 1B
Nick Swisher RF
Brett Gardner LF
Let’s Go Yank-ees!
The squeaky wheel gets the grease, eh?
Well, that's an ... interesting lineup.
What, because Posada is not 9th?
[2] I was thinking the same. This is one of the few times I could watch. Where's Waldo indeed...
[4] umm... "This is one of the few times I wish I could watch". I don't have TV and so far the Yanks' play has not convinced me to shell out for MLB.TV... but still, this is intriguing on a morbid level...
Brad Bergesen starting on normal rest due to a rainout. Yanks have hit him pretty well in the past.
[5] Living in L.A. as I do, mlb.tv is one of the great conveniences of the modern age, especially since, for the last 2 years, the home game blackout feature (for the Angels and Dodgers) hasn't worked ...
Fugh. Rain delay.
Finally got the backyard mowed. First time in 2 weeks, and it took twice as long as the whole yard usually does. And now a rain delay.
[9] You could have used a slow-mow!
Not to get sentimental, but let's win this one for a real 'True Yankee'.

T-minus 20 minutes!
[10] LOL.
BASEBALL!!!
[11] Never mind that shit, gimme some LUNABELLES!
I do believe I have become tumescent.
ZOMBIE JETER!!!
These two things are interchangeable!
THE FUCKING GRANDYMAN CAN!
C'mon Cletus, FUCKTHATSHITUP!
C'mon PISSHANDS, just a single!
C'mon Swish!
C'mon CORNFLAKE!
CORNFLAKE!!!
First inning SCORE TRUCK!
Oh, Nick that was delish! Even getting Po in from first!
Meh.
Oooooh
Double Meh.
It seems like Posada's tantrum is paying off. Moved up in the lineup, playing first.
Fucking Meh.
This better not be a rainout.
ZOMBIE JETER!!!
CRUSH!
KILL!!!
Three triples so far!
30
This had *better* not be a rain out ...
It would totally be Jeter's luck for this game to get washed away
TEIX GO BOOM!
Yeah, this game is gonna get washed out
Meh. Shitty, Shitty weather.
Can't it simply be suspended?
[37] I think it's more likely that C.C. doesn't get the chance for the win ...
Hey, singles!
One more inning please! It seems to have slowed down, it would be a shame if CC's not in line for a win.
Can we officially call this a laugher, if it's not postponed?
A nice change from last night's misery.
LINE DRIVE in the box score!
Yay!
I could have told you that. Far better to throw a strike right down the middle to GGBG than waste a pitch ...
[15] The Lunabelles? The country girl group? Certainly cute, but what is the connection?
Big Score Truck!
[45] Uh? Follow the previous link and then think of all 4 of the Lunabelles crawling all over you. I didn't think it was all that hard ...
[47] I guess I'm a little slow because of the game last night.
My head is a little tumescent.
Was Cervelli just taunting Colon with food?
Official game
Official Game!
[48] Indeed!
Time to call the game.
I missed all the Boom-Bap. Oh well, highlights later
D-Bard just gave up consecutive solo taters to the Tigers, tie game in Boston. Go Detroit!
Verlander at 97mph, 110 pitches in the 8th. Wow.
HipHip!
Save some Score Truckin for the Mets!
Phillies losing to the Rockies ... Giambi went yard.
I wasn't aware that the Phillies had lost four in a row not too long ago. Isn't that supposed to be impossible or something?
Miguel Cabrera, two out and bases loaded against Riverdance at Fenway, top 9th, 3-3 game..
Cabrera Ks! Damn it.
Might not be a bad idea to pull some starters
Watching the Sox-Tigers game for a few minutes with my son. Sphincter struck out Miggy to end the threat.
I asked him, when would we ever root for the Sox to win? I suggested maybe against the Phillies. Or maybe against the Rays if they are ahead of the Yankees in the standings.
He said No, maybe against the Nazi Baseball team, but that's all.
More Kim, less Kay ...
[62] I read that as "My son, Sphincter."
I thought that was unfortunate.
Michael Kay struck again earlier in the game when he got all hyper, apologizing to "the kids" for lauding Granderson's hustle. It was so grating.
[62] Your son is wise beyond his years.
Maybe against that alien team if they came to play baseball this time instead of Michael Jordan.
[66] Not so wise, he's 16.
[64] And if he was a Sphincter, we would love him just the same.
[67] Hm, wise and 16 are incompatible, it's true.
I kind of wish Nunez hadn't homered. I don't want to be seeing him in the future. That homer no doubt bought him a couple of extra starts.
This is tedious
Who gives a crap what people think it he performs ...
Seriously, OMG Núnez iz TEH SUCK, meme might just be my least favorite part of the start of this season. And given the legitimate sacks of suck that exist so far, that's saying something ...
Amauri Sanit, thanks so much, there will be some nice consolation prizes waiting for you in Scranton.
AMAURISENIT = A SANITARIUM
I'm about to turn of the television.
Bastante!
Oh thank god
How about this:
Jason Giambi hits three home runs in Rockies' win
[76] Cool. And apparently it's the first time he's ever done that. I didn't even realize he was still playing. He looks like Grizzly Adams now.
