Yanx/Rangers ALCS IST

[Frayed Knot]

The ALCS kicks off tonight with CC Sabathia and CJ Wilson in the ... wait for it ... initial matchup.

Hopefully the Rangers KO CC ASAP which puts the Yanx in a hole and force them to rely on AJ or become DOA

RIP MFYs, IMHO.

I'm digging the WM behind HP waving the TEX state flag after every strike.

[G-Fafif]

Good start. Could have been better.

[G-Fafif]

I especially admired the way Jeter's unseen hand flipped the Wild Pitch from Posada to Sabathia. He's so awesome.

[G-Fafif]

Don't be a hero, Jorge Cantu. Just be a Marlin.

Darling doing the kind of second-guessing on the play at the plate that won him an Emmy. It must be brilliant.

[Willets Point]

A close call at the plate goes in the Yankees favor. Imagine that!

That's Jeter's leadership right there. Or as Ian O'Connor would call it, Jetership.

At least it was the correct call. The folks who would be storming the gates if the blue had blown that one would have been looking at my ass as they went because I would have been ahead of all of y'all.
Thing is, once that bounce came right back to him, even two slugs as slow as Posada & Sabathia were able to pull that one off.




Damn, Granderson's single ruins my dream of a perfect game.

[Willets Point]

Who is calling this game?

[Willets Point]

Jeter intangibly flies out as "the tying run at the plate."

[G-Fafif]

Michael Young, two hands, third out, always good to see.

Darling & Smoltz are the color men. I forget who's doing p-b-p, they're mostly interchangeable to me anyway.

Darling and some other guy lol

[Willets Point]

The one guy just called that other guy Rick Sutcliffe. Sutcliffe sounds a little like McCarver in his cadence if not in his voice.

[G-Fafif]

Ernie Johnson, whose most appealing quality is he's not Chip Caray.

I think I'll start referring to him as His Jetership. I mean Derek,
of course, not Stevie Jeets.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Wow! Two and a half innings already!

You're on radio then.
Sutcliffe's not one of my favorites.

Only His Jetership can be it, but anybody can display it (if Touched by a Jeter).

Weird. I'm streaming ESPN America and there are definitely visuals.

[Guest Edgy DC]

A big fat 67 pitches through three innings for Sabathia.

[Willets Point]

I was feeling the Rangers love right up until I saw W. in the stands.

Jeez, shouldn't they have run him out of town on a rail after he looted the local treasury?

[G-Fafif]

Sutcliffe is generally paired with ex-Met 'PIX voice Dave O'Brien, though Chris Berman big-footed his way into the first two Brave-Giant games last week.

[Fman99]

Another rally cooking here in the 4th. I'd like to see CC make a big POOPOO in his pajama pants out there.

Oh shush, it's a fucking baseball game.

[G-Fafif]

Rangers increase lead to 5-0. According to Ernie Johnson's suck-up logic from Girardi interview, MFYs couldn't be doing better.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Wheeeee!

[Guest Kong76]

Tubdrawers looks to be in spasm on the bench.

Besides, you'll have to see Guiliani at the MFY game.
