    So does this thread make this the most spilled-over game? The most commented-on game?

  • Dela G

    we have d-rob and gaudin left i believe

    so i guess d-rob is in now

  • Charlie

    ugh, d-rob? i love him and everything, but he’s not exactly trustworthy in a spot like this. let’s hope he throws strikes

    • Charlie

      i just realized there’s like no one else left in the pen

      • http://twitter.com/tsjc68 tommiesmithjohncarlos a/k/a Ridiculous Upside

        Gaudin.

    • http://twitter.com/tsjc68 tommiesmithjohncarlos a/k/a Ridiculous Upside

      Patience, young padawan.

    • TheLastClown

      It was K-Rob v. Gaudin v. Marte

      AL K/9 leader FT…….

  • dkidd

    can’t say i’m surprised by marte

    might have pitched in his last high leverage situation this post-season

  • Alex S

    wow! mauer got a double

    K-Rob! Clap-clap-clap!

    Well, Robertson, we just need three Ks. Or one and a ground ball.

    • Ivan

      No Pressure

  • Dela G

    this has to be the longest thread since i started posting here in may

    the 15 inning game went 5 spillovers i believe

  • Alex S

    pleeeeease strike out the side! that would be ultimate badass

  • cjc

    hey just wondering has anyone figured out yet where the hell gardner was going

  • SF Yanks

    I’ll take a massive dose of some of D-Rob’s strikeout right about now.

    What genius move was this to take out Ace and bring in Marte? WTF?!!

    • http://twitter.com/tsjc68 tommiesmithjohncarlos a/k/a Ridiculous Upside

      That’s the first move I questioned from Girardi, just because it’s extras and I’d rather not burn the pen too quickly at this point.

      That was overmanaging.

    good thing Cervelli didn’t go for Gomez, he could have thrown the ball away and a run would’ve scored

  • Mouch “Half Man Half Couch”

    Harris of all people.

  • BigBlueAL

    Cervelli shouldve drilled Gomez in the back, he was way out of the basepath.

        i’m sorry i littered rab with forms of the word “fuck” and i’m sorry that you’re crazy enough to actually care. i believe the first thing you posted after big tex’s HR was “fuck the haters”.

          Nobody was upset at your cursing. We were upset at your lack of perspective and wisdom. We were upset at your overreactions and your vitriol directed at members of this team who are doing their best to win this ballgame, which they did.

          The cursing is not the issue. The impatience and lack of faith and historical memory is the issue.

        • http://twitter.com/tsjc68 tommiesmithjohncarlos a/k/a Ridiculous Upside

          We were upset not at the cursing, but at the overreactions in these comments.

          Nobody cares that you cursed. We were offended that you:
          A.) smeared Girardi for being an idiot for not bringing in Mo, even though bringing in Mo would have been the WRONG move and bringing in Joba and then Coke was totally the RIGHT move, and the subsequent chain of events that transpired after your comment backs that up;
          B.) called Mariano Rivera a “dumb shit” because he didn’t immediately get an out and gave up a run; he’s the best postseason closer ever, and frankly you don’t have much of a right to be upset when the best player to do what he does EVER doesn’t succeed; Mariano has earned your respect, deference, and gratitude;
          C.) claimed that people who didn’t overreact and fly off at the handle like you weren’t “real Yankee fans” and “didn’t care” like you did, which is just all sorts of ignorantly rude, self-centered, immature, inflammatory, assholish, counterproductive, anti-intellectual, and flat-out wrong;
          D.) chided other fans for continuing to be confident, even though the game was still very early and we had plenty of valid reasons to remain confident because we understood the abilities of our team, the weaknesses of the opposing team, and the historical record better than you did, as was borne out both by your irrational and foolish in retrospect comments and by the final outcome.

          THAT’S what we got on your case for, Charlie. Not for saying “fuck”. I could give two fucks in you say fuck. I love saying fuck. Fuck rocks. Being a belligerent, thickheaded, dour, reactionary, screaming dolt does not rock.

          I accepted your apology, but it looks like you weren’t apologizing for what you should have been apologizing for.

      Not to mention the huge, rally-starting hit in the ninth. You can’t get much more clutch than he and A-Rod were tonight.

      The Mauer call blows, but I can’t feel bad for the Twins after we got jobbed by that horrible magical strike zone all night long.

      • Jordan

        So right, dude. Mauer’s ball was totally fair, but the Yanks don’t make the calls, and they got out of a crazy jam after that. All they can do is make the most of what they’re handed.

    • ShuutoHeat

      ESPN can suck it, which I’m sure they’ll gladly do. They can hug each other and cry about it all they want.

      Also, to any Twins fan who feels like it sucks to have bad call cheat you out of a run late in a big game: Brandon Inge, Jim Leyland and the Tigers say hello…

    Charlie, You said F Mo, which is wild. You told someone who said “I’m still confident,” “You shouldn’t be.” Finally, you said the game really sucked. Which, it obviously turned out to be awesome.

      They play in an old ass shitty stadium and how much do we pay them in rev sharing? Please. They traded one of the best pitchers in baseball for Carlos Gomez, that’s the real issue here; management, not payroll.

      • Bob Stone

        Stadium? That’s not a fucking Stadium. It’s a fucking over-size baggie with air-conditioning.

      • vin

        Are you saying they’re not a well-run organization? Yeah, the got a shitty return on the Santana deal, but for poor management may I refer you to the Royals?

      • Jersey

        Fuck the Twins. They’re receiving like $20 mil a year or thereabouts, and there’s no reason Pohlad can’t increase payroll.

        • http://twitter.com/tsjc68 tommiesmithjohncarlos a/k/a Ridiculous Upside

          The Twins owner volunteerd his club for contraction to take the fat cash payment.

          Keep that in mind.

          He was offered the choice of A) Taking a one-time cash payout or B) refusing to COMMIT EUTHANASIA ON HIS OWN TEAM, THUS RIPPING OUT THE HEARTS OF MILLIONS OF BASEBALL FANS, and he chose the cash-payout + the murder of his own team.

          • Jersey

            Oh, I remember that farce. Props to Twins management for consistently fielding an excellent ballclub in spite of ownership’s best efforts.

          • Bob Stone

            See my comment just below. They just look at it like any other investment like a stock or bond or money market fund. They only care how to get the best return. So they were quite willing to blow up the franchise for a few bucks. They have never acted like stewards of the franchise, its fans, the city or anything else one expects responsibility-wise from enlightened ownership. It’s always come down to the last buck and the best return for the Pohlads.

            • http://twitter.com/tsjc68 tommiesmithjohncarlos a/k/a Ridiculous Upside

              Very true.

              In a related story, I love George Steinbrenner and his sons. They’re awesome.

      • Bob Stone

        Management have done a pretty good with what their very rich skin-flint, dirt cheap ownership has given them. The Pohlad’s just never wanted to win at any cost like the Steinbrenners. They just run the club like any of their other businesses. Make a profit. Winning be damend.
