    First pitch strike. Good omen for Nolasco's command, and for results?

    Yeah, it looks like it will reach mid-80s here. We'll have to shut the windows for a few hours until it cools back down.

    Thoughts, but in a different style than Brian: Whenever one of your pitchers has a good inning, tell him "lucky inning". That way, he develops a good, lucky, feeling. To me, baseball is like a ballet, except there's no music, no choreography, and the dancers hit a baseball. It's easy to sit there and say you'd like to have more pitching. And I guess that's what I like about it. It's easy. Just sitting there, rocking back and forth, wanting that pitching. I think Gardy's new thing should be to try to be a real happy guy. He'll just walk around, being real happy, at least until some jerk says Strike Three to one of his players. I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at batting practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to do take out slides into people at inappropriate times." It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought, something is brewing inside the head of this Coach. He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on. / with apologies to Jack Handy and his Deep Thoughts

    I felt like I had jinxed Parms the last time or two I mentioned him, so this time I kept quiet on that front. No help.

    Nice gift to the Yankees on the outside corner. Game over.

    Robertson needs to start tipping his pitches. It's awfully hard to hit the curveball when the batter thinks it's a fastball, apparently.

    In answer to the question, "what have you been smoking"?

    Parmelee up with a man on second, down by two. This may be our best chance the rest of the way.

    Twins are pecking away - 6-4 now. Too bad we only got to face Whitley for three innings; guess we Chase'd him. In other news, the Yankees hats are dumb looking.

    The terrorists have won.

    Best you're going to get at my pay grade.

    Colabello on that strike three gave a good impression of someone who never saw a breaking pitch before.

    Calling Morales lumbering on the basepaths is an insult to sawed timber.

    That was a rhetorical web link I provided. It says so in the HTML headers or something.

    I can see there's no love lost between these two teams. And both teams are playing at a high level. The intangibles will be the key. Coach Muti certainly gets the most out of his players. Just have to remember the season is a marathon - not a sprint. The good teams get better down the stretch. You just can't let the NY crowd faze you.

    When you argue with yourself, who wins?

    You can throw out their season records whenever the CSO faces NY Phil. It's gonna be a war out there.

    The photo for the Yankees pitcher today looks a bit like one I recall seeing for Parmelee in seasons past:

    Yes, because if there's one thing Yankees fans hate, it's being stared at. 3-0. Why can't we have nice things?
