Does it take two days for Col. Rasmus to get his hair washed?

maybe it's an annual thing. I could see that taking a couple of days.

I hope it's not staph. That shit is bad.

Yankee announcer John Sterling says Girardi would most likely not make Bentances, Wilson or Shreve available today. So, keep it close going into the late innings, boys.
-
The shift does its job and fucks up the routine inning ending double play.
-
In true Yankee fashion, Brett Gardner is kind of a shitass. The fuck is he wearing an oven mitt for? Some kind of pussy or what?
-
I'm really starting to hate that redass.
-
So, Hinch calls Girardi to apologize for Obie because that is not the way the game should be played. Did he then ask Girardi to apologize for Gardner?
-
Wow, disaster averted. A catch and no injury. I had bad thoughts as the play developed.

A juggling catch while negotiating his way between a rock Carter and a hard place Santana, no less.

No shit. That was a little alarming.

McHugh has a good curve working today.

He's throwing well. It would be nice if they scored some runs for him. If they can't do that, at least get some solid contact.

Or at least make Pineda throw some more pitches so that we can get to the bullpen.
-
Not sure I call that solid contact, but it worked out well.
-
That was pretty ridiculous. But props to Correa for hustling from the get-go.
-
I walked outside to spray poison a yellow-jacket nest that I had been staring at through the window since the game started. I missed the score. What happened?

Correa hit a fly to left center. Both outfielders said "you take it" and it fell between them. Then Gardner, going to pick it up, kicks it to the wall and Correa scores. Basically, a little league HR.

Carter is back below .200.

Cool, thanks! Can't wait to see the replay.

Apologize for playing good, clean hard nosed baseball? I doubt it.

Well, it wasn't exactly clean. Even if one gives Gardner the benefit of the doubt that he was cleanly breaking up a DP, which I assume Hinch does, then he sure as shit needs to be giving fatass an earful on why the neighborhood rule applies.

Correa hit a high fly should-have-been-easy-out to LCF, and Gardner and the LF played I-got-it-I-got-it-you-take-it and it fell in between them. Then Gardner kicked the ball (or something) while trying to retrieve it and it went to the fence. Correa was running pretty hard from the start and made it home fairly easily.

In my opinion, there's a line and Gardner might not have crossed it but he had one leg over it with his cleats up like that.
-

There is no neighborhood rule.

I'm not getting into a semantic debate, you've seen enough baseball to know what is meant. Otherwise, you must be outraged every time someone doesn't actually touch the bag on a turn.

No, you're searching for ways to vilify Gardner for playing good baseball, most likely because you're really embarrassed by Oberholzter's behavior. You should be.
-
Correa with a leadoff double, altuve sacrifices him to 3B.
-
Gattis with an RBI triple!!!

This is a clueless statement.

Much less than your insistence that the umpire is required to call some mythical "neighborhood rule".

Valbuena strikes out on bouncing pitches.

I vilify him because he is a Yankee dick. That's all the reason I need. It also pleases me to see him fuck-up in the outfield.
-
Carter pops out to 1B. 5 and 6 hitters leave a man at 3B, but the Astros take a 2-1 lead.

This - the bush league "cleats-up continuation slide" just helps cement the fact that he is a dickhead Yankee...
-
Tucker with a leadoff double, moves to 3B on groundout to SS. Got a break there.
-
Castro with a sac fly to make it 3-1.
-
Is that the same noodle-arm that was out in LF for the Yankees last night? That throw was embarrassing.
-
Springer takes a cookie right down the center to end the 8th. Man he is lost.

I think so. The one last night with Carter scoring was the worst. Carter was two steps from 3B when he fielded it in shallow LF and it bounced like four times and wasn't even close.
-

I know he is strong and capable of hitting homers but I think he's better when he is just trying to get on base. And with Correa behind him that is what he should always focus on.
-
Gregerson in to try to nail it down. Gets the first out 4-1.

Yep. He's back to swinging from the heels trying to murder everything.

Great outing for McHugh.

which is huge for this team.

Gregerson with a 1-2-3 9th to nail it down. Astros split the series.
McHugh was fantastic today.

and a 2.5 hr game. I barely had time to descale my coffeemaker
-
I don't think that Rasmus was in the dugout today. I didn't see him after the game and I would think that Hinch would have used him to replace Tucker in the eighth.

I wonder if they shouldn't mold him into a kind of Rickey Henderson, power/speed, leadoff type without the doucheyness?

If only the Astros had a HoF leadoff hitter with power hanging around the organization , , ,
