Solid game tonight.....Sanchez looked like Engelberg behind the plate and McCutchen was starring in The Land of the Lost on that fly ball......

Hello Mr. @DirtDirtDirt

I sure am. That may be my favorite game of the year last night, well I watched it last night anyway. Starting the JV team they still win on the road against a first place team with 2 amazing comebacks.

Both better then Ted William's 1959 season.

Too bad they probably won't be outhitting 1960 Ted Williams when they're 41.

It wasn't 3:59 in Thailand where I'm posting from. I'm sure Dirt appreciates your concern though. Good looking out

Said it before and I'll say it again, the inability to play fundamental defense is the glaring deficiency on this team. Severino should have been out of the 1st inning giving up a solo run and less than 20 pitches. Does not bode well.

On a positive note, this guy Hechavarria can flat out field.....Crazy play last night

The season is over bro.Their ceiling right now is ALCS. No way can they win a best of 7 series with Severino pitching the way he is.

Ted was pissed all season because he thought the Marines might call him up again to fly in Vietnam

He was pretty lousy last postseason as well (1-1 with a 5.68 ERA) and they got all the way to game 7 of the ALCS, so I'm not waving the white flag just yet.

I most definitely want an extra-rested Tanaka in the WC game however.

Good thing about being so far out of the division is the yanks can definitely give Tanaka extra rest days leading to the WC game

Entering Wednesday night’s game against the A’s, Voit — a beefy, amiable lug (6-foot-3, 225 pounds, seemingly with an ever-present smile) — had homered seven times in 65 plate appearances for the Yankees, batting .322/.385/.678 for a 185 wRC+ since the trade. Five of those homers either tied the game or gave the Yankees the lead.
