Jeter, A-Rod and Ortiz on the pregame show with the anchorman is kind of Yankees-Red Sox monopoly.

Hard to watch. Though I will say Jeter is 10x more insightful and well-spoken that ARod and Ortiz. Seems Ortiz is just there as a sort of court jester.

Yuck, official start time 2:15pm now.

Totally agree.   Ortiz is a clown who can't stop fauning all over the Rangers and Rodriguez gives us nothing.  Jeter very fair and insightful.

It’s clearing up nicely.  Field and stadium look amazing!!

According to the radar the rain is stopping right now. Why are we waiting another hour to start the game?

Ortiz just said the O's and Twins are the same team..... Except Minnesota is better because they didn't lose their closer.  Lol

Unless I'm missing something, Ortiz hasn't said anything but the obvious. We'd be more dangerous with Bautista at the back end.

F**k Ortiz. Brain dead loser who never should have been elected to the Hall.

You know it's bad when Ortiz is doing the weather outlook for the MD area.  He couldn't point out Delaware on the map either.

He said there are similarities. I think he was inferring that they are alike by not being perennial post season teams with something to prove, and he isn't wrong. I'm not a big Ortiz guy, but if you are going to drag him, do it in context, we're all watching the same feed, so you can't just be like Ortiz is hammering the O's when he isn't.

This is their third trip in the last five seasons, that ain't bad.  Way better than Boston over that time period.

First time winning a game in 20 years, though. They aren't a team with a lot of real playoff experience and they have a bunch of guys that nobody knows, there are similarities, records, and their superior pitching aside.
