He got the hand in FIRST!!!

Do the right thing NY!

Sons of first pitches!

I'm starting to think they don't actually phone anyone. I think they just wait around and eventually make a random call.

375 feet AMISH....375!!!

That's why skankees are so good that short field for their hitters. Thinking they are better then us. Routine fly all there is a homer. Unlike most stadiums u gotta really hit it.

You know Seth true story....the game that DT and I went to at Yankee...the foul line area is so small in that stadium that the PLAYERS had to run down all the foul balls. It's like there were no ball boys or girls. Just crazy.

"Bearly" a baseball joke.

A man in Alberta wakes up one morning to find a bear on his roof.
So he looks in the yellow pages and sure enough... there's an ad for "Alberta Bear Removers."
He calls the number and the man says he'll be over in 30 minutes.
The bear remover arrives and gets out of his van. He's got a ladder, a baseball bat, 12-gauge shotgun, and a mean looking, heavily scarred, old pit bull.

"What are you going to do?" the homeowner asks.

"I'm going to put this ladder up against the roof, then I'm going to go up there and I’ll knock the bear off the roof with this baseball bat. When the bear falls off the roof, the pit bull is trained to grab his testicles and not let go. The bear will then be subdued enough for me to put him in the cage in the back of the van."

He then hands the shotgun to the homeowner.

"What's the shotgun for?" asks the homeowner.

"If the bear knocks me off the roof, shoot the dog."

I know right. I mean don't get me wrong they are good but they play at an easy hitting park. Like the Rockies I mean. Crowd goes nuts for routine liners in most parks to easy homers in skankee stadium. I hate it.

I made a joke last night that the Rangers should wear 1968 Washington Senators unis and we should wear 1968 Seattle Angels unis.
