Ridiculous. A base hit after a pitch that should've been strike 3. Hughes has been getting 6 inches off the outside corners to lefties all game, and Johnson can't even get 1 inch.

The strike zone doesn't matter when the Yankees get themselves out by swinging at pitches they can't even hope to hit. :2yay-thumb:

Every time they show a close up of Swisher, I wish I could get close enough to him, to smack that look off of his face.

No doubt, but its beginning to look a bit nuts (Swisher's puckered lips, cocky, eye swelling look) recently....IMO :)

I got ejected in the 3rd. Didn't you hear the 9 rounds of .40 cal gunfire I let off into the sky? I was celebrating like New Years Eve in the DR.

Last week, I got kicked out of a movie theater for bringing my own food. I couldn't believe it. I told the usher that the prices at the concession stand were outrageous, and besides, I haven't had a barbeque in a long time.

    • I was hoping that would be this season, but he faded this second half. But even Gunnar not living up to his lofty expectation is still a good player with an .811 OPS.
    • Mike Elias simply can't offer Michael Baumann, Cristian Pache, Connor Norby and Kyle Stowers this kind of experience. Jack Flaherty was kind of Meh again, but hey, at least he isn't on Detroit for this weekend. It is a special player to get to watch.    He's reviving some of the Babe Ruth "he hits too brilliantly to let him pitch" stuff, but hombre is going to do whatever he wants to do, it is part of the deal.    It does seem pretty likely the SB to this scale are a 1-time deal with the legs getting the year off from the mound. I do have a baseball-y wish to see if he could be Ken Griffey, Jr. in center field if he tried.

    • Hopefully it will be like giving a blood transfusion to a sickly patient. Yes some players haven't played as well this season, but it's mainly the injuries that have taken it's toll. The lineup gets much better if Westburg, Urias and Mountcastle are back. No longer does Eloy have to play and Holliday can be platooned. Plus O'Hearn will absolutely not see at bats against LHP like he has been recently at times. Webb and Coulombe provide depth to make the bullpen postseason viable. And Coulombe can close games instead of Dominguez assuming he's back all the way.
    • Gunnar stands to improve on: fielding and stolen bases. I also think he’ll have a 1.000OPS season or two before he’s done.
    • Maybe they were going by Tony's reaction, not realizing that with the winning run on third there wasn't any point in running.
    • looks like some of y'all are gonna be pissed when we win 2 of 3 against Detroit, at least one in NY and 2 o 3 against Minn.  I'd be embarassed if I were some of you....projecting the apathy and misery in your own little lives onto our O's.  This is a F upped sport and a team with talent like this can turn on a dime and start winning consistently at any time.  This isn't over.  I you're mad that your life hasn't worked out well......please don't bring the rest of us down.
