Apparently Ozzie Guillen once said that if AJ is not on your team you hate him, but if he is on your team you hate him less.

AJ got hit by a pitch one time and after the game a reporter asked Konerko if one his teammates should have plunked someone in retaliation. I don’t remember the exact wording but it was to the effect of A.J. gets what deserves.

If the game lasts into the sixth, I'm going to be irritated if they take Berrios out 2 outs short of 200.

 

So I'm already looking at retracting my previous Gibson statements about not caring about his usage the rest of the regular season.

4 pitches 3 outs , thinking about the rain ?

 

Hopefully the forecast is rain in the Bronx next week so I can get to bed before 12.

Official game. If it is going to rain let it be an obvious deluge that sends the team back to the hotel, not something that keeps them at the stadium for hours “hoping” to finish it.

[big dog]

Buxton gets that.

I thought that about all three of the flies that dropped.

Ok someone check that April thread. Who had Ryan Lamarre hitting #303?

i did 76D000C8-6A4E-4EEE-8FC7-543C40ABABEC.png

No, because the judges couldn’t read your writing? And put you down for Darin Mastroianni #303, not Ryan LaMarre

Interesting, looks like the players were eager to make sure they get in enough innings to qualify for an official game. I guess making up a game isn't something anyone is eager to do this late in the year.

Looks like Gibby is set to enter the bottom of the 6th, providing the rain hold off. We'll see.

Are they going to let Berrios get the 2 more outs he needs for 200 IP? I hope so.

Early indication is that he won't be allowed to.

LaMarre wreaking havoc on the basepaths

[IndyTwinsFan]

A stolen base? Who allowed the Twins to do that??

[big dog]

LaMarre wants to play in the majors next year. Nice steal.

[Brian450]

One behind the Yankees, as Urshela and Ford both go deep in the 6th in Arlington...

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

LaMarre wants to play in the majors next year. Nice steal.

Yeah, suddenly “the Twins needed me last year” doesn’t look too bad.

[gocgo]

Yankees with 4 homers so far...if it were any other team...well, not the White Sox.

Yep.

I'm all for it as long as it involves running fast instead of some sort of vandalism.

[stringer bell]

Well, Cleveland is done.

5 - ur slightly behind.

[PseudoSABR]

Congrats on 200, Jose!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Get this last whiff Jose

[IndyTwinsFan]

Well, Jose got his 200 innings. Good for him!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

AW yeeeaaaah

[notoriousgod71]

Now it can downpour for the rest of the evening.

[big dog]

Nice job, Jose. See you on Friday!

[insagt1]

Nice! Rocco let him go out out there to get his 200 IP and Berrios finishes the 6th with a flourish. A little ragged to start but ended up being a very strong outing.

Now the pen needs to shut them down for just 3 innings and we can look forward to 100 wiins.

[IndyTwinsFan]

Now it can downpour for the rest of the evening.

Looking at the radar, it's not a matter of if it starts raining, it's more of a matter of when the deluge begins.

[notoriousgod71]

Forecast says heavy rain and thunderstorm starting in 2 minutes.

[Brian450]

Rosario is trying to tie us back up with the Yankees...
