Trout, Trout, pretty little Trout, throw that pitch and strike him out…..

Name what I took that lyric from and twisted it slightly for the circumstance.

Did Papelbon make a bet with Johnny Damon on how can say "ass" on live TV the most?

Thanks for not blowing the win. Would have made my day more depressing. Found out a half hour ago that my ex daughter-in-law is in hospice dying from cancer. My son didn't find out until a day or so ago as his ex didn't want to tell him. He found out from her mother. He got to visit her yesterday.

Thanks to Gleyber Torres, the Guardians pulled out one win against the NYY. They will be less depressed on their plane ride to Boston, therefore, I reckon.

Bugs Bunny! The one with the hillbillies where Bugs is the square dance caller and makes them fall in the water.

Can't ever recall staring a new series on Marathon Monday
Cleveland flies in tonight. Got to be chaotic with all the movement in the city.

5:00 am start for me; I'll miss the first few innings.

Sadly, we will always remember Patriots Day 2018.

I haven’t watched many games this year, but just based on the box scores, it seems like Jansen has been about as bad as he could possibly be, while still getting the job done.

I mean, not quite as extreme as Playoff Kimbrel in 2018, but still…

I used to question you when you had these reactions to Kimbrel.

I took the path you travel today, though. And while I still wish I had stuck it out until the end, I think in this specific instance I made the right call.
I cheated and listened to the getting into trouble part on the radio, then flipped to the stream for the getting out of trouble part. Not punished, ideal.

Jansen said after the game the baseballs that have been used this season are poor quality.
Nike's fault probably.

Earl Weaver would have needed a carton if Jansen was his closer. Good God.
As most people here know, Weaver called Don Stanhouse “Full Pack” because Weaver would need a full pack of smokes to get through a close game with Stanhouse on the mound.
Since weed is legal in Mass now, maybe Jansen should be known as “Full Bong”.
