We've come up with a lot of adjectives to describe them, but savages has never been one of them.

That's an Elmer Fudd-sized pate on the guy, too. I'm calling the PDE officers to send him back where he came from.

I assume Gardner is the moronic looking bald guy



Question: when he said ‘I feel bad for you' what did he mean? Umpire has personal bad news? :(



Also the batter seemed polite enough at least



Savages is hilarious though. Maybe it's a new baseball term

"I feel bad for how dumb you are"

The pitch that was "so far fucking outside" was a pretty clear strike.



Gardner looks depressed at the end of the video. Like he's been trying to get the Kase look, but realizes he's just not cool enough to carry it off.

Tanaka allowed 7 runs in the first inning tonight, stayed in long enough to allow 4 more in the 4th and is now gone after 3 1/3 with 12 hits, 3 walks, 11 runs and responsible for a man on 2nd.



SAVAGE!



i like leaving him in there. you are 99.9% fucked anyway, so why burn another guy's arm?

Last time Tanaka faced the Sawx it was in London when he gave up six runs in the 1st inning.

But that was London and a jury-rigged stadium; no way that would happen state-side.

Nope, today he gave up seven in the 1st inning ... and then things got worse.



The Yanx perfect record (2-0) in games where they allow 12 or more runs is in trouble tonight (although there are still [CROSSOUT]seven[/CROSSOUT] six outs to get).

Austin Romine is pitching now and not well.


The wacko part about all that was that Aaron Boone and the Yanx went into that game with a two man bench and one of those was the backup catcher (Romine - actually both catchers were backups since

Gary Sanchez is, like the Beastie Boys, currently IL'in ... see what I did there?). Gio Urshela was the other. That left them with a nine man bullpen but of course Boone didn't actually want to use any of his

respectable penners. Needless to say, none of the position players got to take the remainder of the game off as is common in one-sided affairs.



So Tanaka, despite coughing up 7 in the 1st and eventually an even dozen runs overall, stayed in thru 3-1/2 and 87 pitches and was only pulled then because the HP ump threatened to invoke the 'Mercy Rule'.

Stephen Tarpley (1.2 IP, 4 runs, 5 hits) and former NYM farmhand Luis Cessa (1.2 scoreless, although by then the Red Sox were batting from their opposite side just to see if they could do it) were the only real

relievers Boone used. Romine (lettuce pray) wound up charged with 3 runs in the full inning of work.





In Anaheim, Orioles utility man Stevie Wilkerson (I went to HS with a guy by that name) fared much better as a pitcher. He wound up with a 1-2-3 Save in the bottom of the 16th throwing balls at about 45 mph.

After BOTH teams put up a 3-spot in the 15th, Baltimore went ahead again with 2 in the top of the 16th. Wilkerson closed it out. Trade Diaz for him NOW!!!!

The 6 hour 19 minute game ended sometime after 4:30 AM EDT

That is all.

10-3 Sox heading for top of 9



I was so sure that, after the pasting they took last night, the Yanx were going to win three consecutive close games and win the series despite being out-scored by several touchdowns.

Considering that Yanx pitchers have allowed 48 runs over their last four games and yet the team won two of those game, it's not an unreasonable fear.



As of now they're being out-scored 29-6 over the first 17 innings of this four-game series.

Actually, that shouldn't have been all. I'd like to openly salute any fans back in Baltimore who hung in there for the whole game against Anaheim and got to see their manager be the first manager in history to successfully deploy a position player for a save.



I imagine only a few 10-year-olds enjoying summer sleepovers were still tuned in.

I was venting, every year a couple of social media MFY friends ball wash each

other over this and it's really quite a sight. Dude was not Amelia Earhart, fellas.

So apparently the Yanqui front office are savages as well.



A 'lifetime fan' with a partial (41-games, upper tank) season ticket plan for years decided to give up his season tickets for next year on account of the 40% rise in price over two seasons (2018 to 2020).

But it was the bill for this year's playoff tickets which really got him mad. A $92 surcharge was tacked onto his bill and when he inquired about it with the ticket office he was told it was, in effect, a

penalty for not renewing his plan. The surcharge was some 8% of the total but since I'm presuming you're required to pre-pay for all potential playoff games, any shortfall in the number of games,

either by quick wins or by (heh, heh) early elimination would effectively ramp up the size of the bite the surcharge takes since the unused tickets would be refunded but not the penalty. Or maybe they've

banned refunds also and will force him to buy tickets for next year in order to make up the difference.

While I appreciate the monopoly/drug dealer angles, it's the vindictive nature of the 'Fuck You if you won't renew' aspect of it that's the really dick move here.

We're charging you more than we're charging the guy sitting next to you as a punishment for not giving us enough future money.

The guy, btw, has vowed never to go to the stadium again after this. He'll watch, and he'll travel to see them elsewhere, but he's done handing over his cash.
