    ...I thought they had decided to bench ARod vs RHed pitchers?


    ...his stats vs RHers this year are terrible (.193 .228 .336 .564)....and striking out 1 out of 3 times with a horrible OPS+.

    Since A-hole said "you haven't seen the last of me he's gone 0 for 8. I'd be willing to bet that A-hole in that lineup is being directed by one of the tadpoles.

    ...just found out that Beltran's hammy is keeping him out of the line up...so I guess that explains ARod playing.

    Had to leave the game to finish my yardwork ahead of the daily storm. Looked like Pineda itched a nice game for a change. Saw Gardner with the bases juiced, said come on damn it do something, and he grounded out $$%$$&^%^*(&^&*((*&(^

    Chapman is going to fuck up his outing again.

    Great game from Pineda vs a good hitting team.
    He's a knucklehead with a crooked cap when he sucks, today he had his crooked hat and was great.
    Funny game baseball.
    Yanks suffered their worse most unusual loss of the season Monday vs Texas- and bounced back to sting Texas these last two games with walkoff wins, once with a couple of 9th inn HRS, another on a passed ball.
    I like it.
    Far as I'm concerned, Texas was fortunate to split the four games.

    ...lol...the Rangers were "fortunate" to split 4 games but the Yanx somehow were not...Rangers fans surely feel differently.

    Homerism
    In sportcasting, having a bias toward your hometown team or toward the team for which you play/used to play.
    (colloquial) The tendency of sports fans to advocate for their home teams to an unreasonable or irrational degree.

    The local newspapers practice homerism, predicting that the hometown teams will win and complaining about the refs when the local teams lose.
