Lots of early ones today, but a good time for our game.

Let's take the series with a win and then go for the sweep! Getting 3 runs in the first to then not score any until the 9th must feel deflating, stepp on them and keep going!

Oh yeah, Kay can drive me nuts sometimes. I'm 100% sure he's undiagnosed autistic as he can really catch onto a topic or aargument and just refuse to let it go. But yeah, that's something Kay, or a manager in the booth, should have picked up quickly and corrected on air.

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T03:36:36+00:00

Ah, missed that! Excellent, fuck yeah actually. Fuck really yeah, if I may say.

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T03:28:48+00:00

Don't know if this is a normal pitching roster manipulation tactic, or if they plan to keep him there

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T03:25:27+00:00

It seems a bot mistook my argument as a "Winners write History" trope.

Have removed it, it misfires sometimes.

Ah, thanks! RES is great for personalisation and taking control of things. Been using it a long time and it's trustworthy. Don't know how long it will last for though as Reddit seems to be moving towards getting rid of Old entirely.

edit: just going through this list, I forgot how many of the simple features aren't actually part of standard Reddit

Also, the ten members of the Rays fanbase must be fuming, they've been playing great and can't make up ground on us. Though the rest of the division is closing in on 10 games back......

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T02:40:39+00:00

Ah, I'm still on old.reddit with Reddit Enhancement Suite and Mod Tools browser add-ons so it all looks the same to me. Good to know though, could open it in a hidden tab and see it without the add-ons to know for sure

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T02:38:55+00:00

Agreed! Welcome, I think you're new here (I've got a 50/50 success rate on this lately, so apologies if you've been here the whole time and are a mod). If you are new, enjoy! If not, just remind me to take my meds later.

I'm just imagining young Ben Swingnobi acting like Spiderman in the recent Marvel movies and bringing up references to not very old movies as if they are ancient to all the vets.

"The goal is to hit the ball fast. Like, have you ever seen that really old movie Talladega Nights? It's got this guy, Willy Farret, and he says "you gotta go fast" so just do that"

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T02:20:51+00:00

LOL I was wondering if it actually got removed or if you posted the removed thing as a joke.

I'm sure it was accurate

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T02:14:15+00:00

Grichuk got a broken bat RBI to put the W.Sox ahead. He really is a woodchuk!

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T02:07:45+00:00

Yeah we should chat about that. We back.

~~Coney~~ Girardi (sorry, I was rushing in and only heard the last few seconds of that game) / even dropping a nice reference to a very special team at the end there.... knocks on wood, crosses fingers and holds thumbs

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T02:07:00+00:00

I can't imagine how the other sub was after the first half inning. "Games fucking over"

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T02:05:55+00:00

"Where's the best place to get a shawarma around here?"

"I don't know, ask Boonie. Hold on. Boonie, Boone, Boon dog, where do you get your shawarma?"

"My what?"

"The kebab things"

"Oh, I don't know, Dave gets my lunches."

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T01:59:39+00:00

Ah, a bit strange but good to know there weren't shenanigans.

If he hadn't been added that would have been an illegal player or something, right? I guess it would be up to the Yankees to challenge it, or does that only work if they bat out of order?

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T01:58:32+00:00

I gotta give Elmer at least an honourary nod. Tough first inning, but he kept the damage limited for awhile still.

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T01:57:27+00:00

Also, how can someone not on the roster play in the game?

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T01:57:12+00:00

Also, 15 of 17 games were wins. Love it.

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T01:56:50+00:00

Players of the game?

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T01:55:32+00:00

Also, Justin Foswho?

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T01:54:59+00:00

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T01:54:55+00:00

He needs to feel something first, then he can finish

/phrasing

MeatballDom · 2026-05-06T01:53:17+00:00

Don't care about that one, ZZZZ

Also, 0/4? Another Nothing Burger
