Well, I was wrong about the Twins, here's hoping I'm wrong about the Tigers. A's/Tigers should make FOX/ESPN squirm nicely, too. Not sure what it does to Gutches.
If Detroit wins tonight (against an iffy Eunuch who hasn't pitched since 9/23), they have a very strong advantage in Game 4 with Bonderman v Wright.
Even if there is a Game 5, well, you know these Yankees ... they can grab onto first place in September, but in October, when shit really counts, they choke.
But he was part of the greatest double play of all-time the inning before, if you listen to Morgan and Miller. I mean, sure, it was the kind of double play where you only record one out, but still...
Captain Cook, who sailed to Antartica, came to Detroit and threw out the first ball at the 1909 World Series. It was so cold in Detroit, he left after 3....
Other Harwellisms so far (he's been in the booth for a while, and they're just letting him announce):
"charged with excessive window shopping": caught looking at strike 3
"stood there like house on side of road": well, the same thing.
L-Girl: did Gameday tell you that the ball they just called foul is now COVERED in foul-line chalk like a powder puff? There's a freaking green space where the chalk is missing. After earlier caliing a borderline call a "bad call," these geniuses keep making excuses for the two umps who were each ten feet a way from the ball landing directly on the line and kicking up a hunk of white stuff. Say it now! Say "that was a horrible call"! Unbelievable.
Yeah, I heard the paint story. But I thougt I might confuse people by calling it paint, since it's always called chalk. In Little League, it was "lyme."
Jeez, that was almost as much fun as a Red Sox win. Hope Bonderman catches some of what Rogers had. What a job! In, out, up, down, changing speeds. Jayzus. Morgan must have a bundle on the Yanks with a pyschopath bookie. He's practically peeing his pants for a Yankee win.

Go, Slappy, Go!
Keep on putting him in pressure situations, Yankees!
Prove that 2004 was no fluke!
He's not hitting solid with an accelerated bat head.
I have no doubt the Tigers will win. I expect to see them in the World Series, and I hope to see them win it.
nobody needs monday morning quarterbacks.
You know what else nobody needs?
Here I am.

In 4. No trip back to NY.
Oh yeah, definitely in four. I don't expect to see the Yankees win more than one game this post-season.

So the A's finally make it out of the DS. It's about time.
I respect your choices
Mighty white of you!

Joe Morgan just said that Randy Johnson pitching is "good" for the Yankees, and that another good thing for the Yankees is A-Rod.
Aren't those the two big uncertainties of the team right now? Did he mean to say "bad"? Twice?
Don't think too much about what Joe Morgan says. It's bad for your brain.
Okay, well what about Jon Miller? He just said that Bobby Abreu held Bernie Wiliams to a single.
Randy's cursing.
Randy's cursing!
Hey, he's good at something. He curses well.
Okay, well what about Jon Miller?
I'm telling you, it's harmful. Turn back while you still can.
CI GIDP to end the MFY 3rd.
Get back out there, Ugly.

Did you ever hear that Captain Cook story before? That was some funny shit by Harwell.

At work. Gameday. Tell us!

A's/Tigers for ALCS. A's win world series.
It better be A's/Tigers and they better go 7 games 'cause I got tickets to game 7!!

Bye, Eunuch.
When I got home and turned on the game, they were talking about supposed chalk dust, which of course doesn't exist because it's paint, not chalk.
A's??? No way. NO WAY. TIGERS.
5-0 right now. The Yankees are toast.
excessive window shopping :)

Lyme? Must be a CT thing.
7th inning: Dumbo doubles, but Shemp grounds out to second (Dumbo to third), Peanuthead whiffs and Canoe grounds out first to pitcher.
Then Granderson homers to lead off the home half. Hahaha. 6-0.
What redemption for Kenny Rogers. Even I'm happy for him tonight.
MFY 8th:
Damon (bcf) strikes out swinging.
Jeter (bsffbb) walks.
Abreu (fs) strikes out looking.
Zumaya relieves Rogers.
Slappy (bc) flies out to RF in RCF.
Way to cleanup!
Final: 6-0.
It's gggrrrrrrreat!
