What all makes it an experience?

Seems like more confrontational metaphor would be more likely, what with sports and all.

The Joe Ryan gauntlet: Set to smack the Yankees down.

Joe Ryan tilts at the Yankee windmills: hurled down to the ground and up amongst the stars?

Joe Ryan as the man with two names a midwestern gunslinger in the Yankees pre-apocolyptic metropolis. He who pitches with his arm has forgotten the face of his father.

Joe Ryan and his Jumping Bean fastball.

Not to be confused with a bean ball, although i suppose we set a new season high in walks yesterday. Gotta do something to maintain momentum through the get away day.

Got a bad feeling about this one. We're gonna be up the proverbial Schlittler's Creek.

That's a hilarious show! 🇨🇦 Might be a tariff now.

Ok, random question that's probably not a big deal, but has been bugging me since I started thinking about it.

I remember getaway start times being a topic earlier this season (particularly with the angels having some weird start times).

Shouldn't the rules not allow for a night game today with the Twins playing in Minneapolis (more than a 2.5 hour flight) tomorrow?

Do the rules just not apply to the Yankees?

I'm not sure there is a rule but more of a gentlemans agreement that get away day will be an afternoon game.  But if the rules are going to be ignored or bent it will be for the Yankees.

No way this game will start on time. Hopefully it doesn’t start at all. Heavy storms in the mid Atlantic today (but we needed the rain 😂)

There definitely is a rule that was part of one of the last few CBAs, but I might be missing some of the subtleties.

The Angels started a game at 6:29 earlier this year because it was the latest time allowed to the minute. Probably traveling from the eastern to central time zone makes the 7 EST start time allowable.

But certainly an afternoon start is typical and would be courteous in this scenario.

I agree that it won't start on time, but I suspect they'll make every effort to get the game in, as it's our only trip into NY this season.

Be a late flight back to MSP

9/22 mutually off day but would require us to go MPLS to NY to TEX in three days
