Real nice emergency relief work by Valdez to hold the line, and Devers with a pair of bombs.

that was a good win


Sure was!

The homer off Cole was particularly satisfying.

Hope ERod's okay!

Evo was in total command and it seemed all but over. Strange game. May get stranger.

I can hope.

And Franchy Cordero? Must we?

Not nearly strange enough.

Close to strange enough.

Seemed like that was a W all day.

bad loss

Evo deserved better.

I'm 50/50 on whether pulling him for Otto to face Stanton was the right move.

I'm not sure anyone but Mookie could have caught those cheap ass bloops.

Wow

today was like a mirror image of yesterday.

Gerrman was brilliant and deserved better.

But that 8th inning comeback was awesome

no-no gone

shutout gone

lead gone

lead taken

game over

3 out of 4 is right.

"Turnabout is fair play" is what I said during the 8th.

It makes quite a pair of games! Toronto and TB also lost today, putting everything back to where it was on Thursday...

Except Baltimore has now crept back to within 26 games...

BOSTON -- Domingo German was simply dominating the Boston Red Sox. Never more so than in the seventh inning, when the Yankees right-hander struck out stars J.D. Martinez, Rafael Devers, Xander Bogaerts and rookie Jarren Duran.

Always an odd phrase, that.

Sounds like a tangled web for lawyers to get unstuck.

Seems someone in the sport biz is already using Guardians in Cleveland.

Somewhere on a banked track Joan Weston is laughing and elbowing someone in the mouth..

Oops...

If I were the Roller Derby club, I would work out a deal similar to what happened when Ted Turner wanted WTBS and a small college radio station already owned it.

The radio station got a complete upgrade to modernized equipment, a bunch of money, and a new set of call letters. Ted got WTBS.

I would bet that the Cleveland Guardians can do at least as well, given how much money the Indians have already sunk into this change.

So you leave a guy in at 90 pitches with a no hitter, but remove him at 93 with a 1-hitter and a 4 run lead

Okey doke.

So, he struck out 4 batters in one inning? I guess those extra outs really help out the Sox. over the course of a game.

Cleveland Guardians....

Sounds like a security outfit that patrols your local mall.

I too once met a girl in Central Park, but it is not much to remember. What I remember is the time John Wayne killed three men with a carbine as he was falling to the dusty street in Stagecoach, and the time the kitten found Orson Welles in the doorway in The Third Man.

Sure - instead of throwing his 91st through 93rd pitches to Verdugo, he'd have been at least three pitches fresher - might have gotten Verdugo out.

Probably not, but who knows?
