    4-4 bottom of the 17th.

    Longest game for Sunday Night baseball...

    44 K's, most in any MLB game, period...

    hope this one goes beyond the Yanx 19 inning affair a couple yrs back. Love the mid-am onshore flow fog, and balls hit into its ghost on Waveland ave.


    KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
    - kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

    game is still on. And Shreve is pitching......unreal.

    Disney store in Shanghai was blaring Star Wars imperial March....kid had an NY hat on and I pointed to it and said they are playing your song. He smiled and held up a finger and said Yankees number 1.

    Castro & Gregorius went 0 for 8 tonight/this morning. Severino, thank you Aroldis Chapman,
    deserved a victory tonight.

    My only question is: Who the hell is going to bail out CC for tonight's game? Girardi will
    probably leave his sorry 'Cheeseburger' arse out there for all to see.......looks to be a
    concession game.

    Take this back. Tanaka goes later tonight........not Mr. Cheeseburger!

    This is going to leave a mark. I love the way this team battles. Taking volunteers for bullpen Duty tonight in Cincy, Lil's in, who else, she doesn't want to cook Lasagna!
    A win it would have been a shame losing after 6+ hours...

    whadda game, still would rather see Miller any day over the shaky nail biter, wild to often, like he's trying to keep the speed down, over throwing while holding back. Good thing Chapman had a 3 run lead, then gives up 3 earned runs, 3, 3, wtf, 3, from a closer..... come back Mo',.... Miller,.... Guidry.... Dave LaRoche,... wanna' close....

    I've long thought, how guys like your father had to of felt cheated in ways; how they must of felt after being cheated out of seeing Sandy Koufax walk on water, Drysdale too, but Koufax was a loved local boy, and that must of hurt. The same how the people of Quebec City felt, after they landed Roy, and 5 great prospects for the Lindros debacle, then immediately moved to Denver and Won the S. Cup, screwed canucks, that one sucked. Or the A's change ownerships, move the Yanx unofficial farm club out of KC, into Charlie'Os Oakland, and go on to infamy within 3 yrs.
    One reason not many care for the returning lambs, ntm- the other returning homeless step child...(they should of looked for a stadium in Tijuana).

    My Husband found me on the couch this morning with a comforter over my head and as he was leaving for work said "Do you think you can get anything accomplished today???" I just laughed and said maybe. Now I'm stuck making Lasagna and the Pizza I was supposed to make last night. :biglaugh:
