Phiten was a very big sponsor for the Mariners this season.
From the Boat race to giving out free bracelet vouchers and demonstrations. It’s definitely more mainstream, and a LOT of the players seem to be wearing them now. More than ever had in the past.
I think the ball was over the wall and the fans had the right to the ball, but they interfered by sticking their hands into the area of play and knocking Cruz’s glove down.
The fan clearly touched Nelson Cruz' glove IN THE FIELD OF PLAY.
The ball was over the fence and would not have been caught by Cruz, unless Cruz had made a jump to make the catch like vintage Griffey, Gutierrez, Mike Cameron, or Ichiro.
The Rangers getting WS money would suck and I am hoping that whoever wins the NLCS would just destroy the Yankees. I wanted to see them get their hopes up only to be utterly crushed later.
BLESS AMERICA. MY HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME SWEEEEEEEEEEEET HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME GOD BLESS AMERICA. MY HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME. SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME.
He can force the umpires to convene, which could get it changed if other umps saw differently from another angle. But it's probably unlikely to be changed on a HBP.
Damn, Nolan turned into the baseball equivalent of Jake LaMotta...
so much for the work outs. When I saw him I was reminded of an old Saturday Night Live skit where the Starship Enterprise is turned into a revolving restaurant. Khan is the health inspector and starts docking Kirk for not having a sneeze guard over the salad bar. Out of no where comes this fat Asian guy playing Sulu and Khan blurts out, “Sulu? My God, man, what happened to you?”
Eric Wedge took a year off to grow a moustache.

Either that, or he wants us to know he isn’t Russell Branyan.

I love JK Simmons.

I don;t see him as AJ though.

But I also wanted to take the opportunity to express my love for JK Simmons.

ambrosia2112 - October 19, 2010
Are the phiten the same as the magnetic crap?
And the phiten have been around for a good 3 or more years now.
the other side - October 19, 2010
Phiten is the namd of the Japanese comany that makes the Titanium infused products, yes.
They have been around, yes, but were not plastered all around the ballpark until this season.
ambrosia2112 - October 19, 2010
I guess I'm ignorant from apathy. Isn't Phiten Seattle based?
the other side - October 19, 2010
They have a Corporate headquarters here, yes.
The company is Japanese based, and every employee in the corporate store is from Japan.

Cody Ross is like Jose Lopez but 100 times more awesome
seattlebruin - October 19, 2010
Of course it would be Ross up right now.

This will either be glorious or disappointing but not excessively so.

FUCK YOU YANKEES!
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
Exhibit B that the National League is silly.
Joe Metro - October 19, 2010
It wastes the talents of Cody Ross?
seattlebruin - October 19, 2010
Yes, because 4 1/2 hour Yankees-Red Sox games are so much better
lemonverbena - October 19, 2010
That is... an odd rebuttal.

ambrosia2112 - October 19, 2010
Anything without the Yankees will make me happy.
Thingray - October 19, 2010
As long as the Rangers lose.
ToddK - October 19, 2010
I know it helps them as an org if they win,
but I’d still rather have them win than having the Yankees get another one.
Thingray - October 19, 2010
How about neither one wins the WS?
Go GIANTS!
ToddK - October 19, 2010
I'm trying.. Really trying to get behind the Giants.
But it’s so hard when their entire offense is Cody Ross.

You are correct.

I like Bones more.
On the show she was her cousin, not her sister, just saying.

But they look so alike they could be sisters!
Just watched that episode.
LonelyintheBleachers - October 19, 2010
When was she on the show?
I completely lost interest over the last season and a half.
the other side - October 19, 2010
I'll admit it's been disappointing recently.
This season has sucked, and the season before was off and on for me. I still have faith.
SeaKoala - October 19, 2010
Christmas episode last season.
They tried to out act eachother and it was awesome.

Cliff Lee was quite entertaining last night

kevin_ess - October 19, 2010
Yes
bluemax - October 19, 2010
Yes
kevin_ess - October 19, 2010
It seems as if the Rangers need to only win 1 of the next 3 games to guarantee a trip to the World Series.
A Cliff Lee loss seems unimaginable and I don’t recall ever thinking that about a pitcher. But I also have a short memory.

Tommy Hunter is a large man.

Probably should have named him Tommy Vegetarian.

I see where you're going with this,
but nobody loves a goddamned vegetarian.
kevin_ess - October 19, 2010
How is Tommy Hunter pitching in the ALCS?
A worse Doug Fister!
Mariner John - October 19, 2010
That's unfair to compare him to someone so glorious.
CapSea - October 19, 2010
I slightly better David Pauley!
Mariner John - October 19, 2010
A
Mariner John - October 19, 2010
No I think you probably are slightly better than David Pauley.
Kenneth Arthur - October 19, 2010
Much better.

Previously it was like "This gold sucks compared to this platinum."
Now it’s like “This garbage can doesn’t smell as bad as this one!”

“AWESOME FISTER RENDERS ANGELS USELESS.”
kevin_ess - October 19, 2010
Wait, are you saying his name sounds like a sexual innuendo?
CapSea - October 19, 2010
I believe that is the implication.
Thingray - October 19, 2010
No -- I tend to shy away from that sort of base humor.
I prefer jokes like “Brevity is.”

sanford_and_son - October 19, 2010
Replay!
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
It takes maybe all of five seconds to decide to replay it and they moved on anyway.
CapSea - October 19, 2010
One of the Yankee fans actually tried to reach into Cruz's glove to pull out the ball assuming he had already caught it.
CapSea - October 19, 2010
Well shit, how do you rule that?
THEY’RE NOT LOOKING AT THAT?
Two Rs and Two Ls - October 19, 2010
WHAT THE FUCK?
Two Rs and Two Ls - October 19, 2010
They'd have to walk ALL THE WAY to the cameras.
I mean… how much work do you expect them to do?
CapSea - October 19, 2010
Wait I just assumed I'd got the replay rules wrong
What the fuck indeed.
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
Actually, it looks like the fans reached over, but the ball was actually over the fence anyways.
I can’t believe they didn’t even look at it though.
drblacknwhite - October 19, 2010
His glove was pushed downward. If nothing else it could have been an injury risk.
CapSea - October 19, 2010
Robinson Cano willed that home run over the fence.
Mariner John - October 19, 2010
That is major interference.
I think the ball was over the wall and the fans had the right to the ball, but they interfered by sticking their hands into the area of play and knocking Cruz’s glove down.
Bad call.
Wilder. - October 19, 2010
The fan clearly touched Nelson Cruz' glove IN THE FIELD OF PLAY.
The ball was over the fence and would not have been caught by Cruz, unless Cruz had made a jump to make the catch like vintage Griffey, Gutierrez, Mike Cameron, or Ichiro.
You still have to review that.
Two Rs and Two Ls - October 19, 2010
Ladies and gentlemen, your quintessential New Yankee Stadium home run
lemonverbena - October 19, 2010
Jim Reynolds is wearing a size 8 1/2 cap so maybe he couldn't see it.
Mariner John - October 19, 2010
Jim Reynolds has barely one job.
CapSea - October 19, 2010
He'll have less than that if there's any justice.
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
Whuh oh.
ThundaPC - October 19, 2010
It's almost like starting a fly ball righty against the Yankees in New York is a bad idea.
Mariner John - October 19, 2010
FOUL BALL!
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
That was foul.
ThundaPC - October 19, 2010
FUCKING HELL UMPS YOU ARE TERRIBLE
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
That was a foul ball you dipshit ump.
drblacknwhite - October 19, 2010
How could you call that ball fair?!
Wilder. - October 19, 2010
Looks foul.
Probably call it a home run though just to be as incompetent as possible.
CapSea - October 19, 2010
GOOD THING WE HAVE THOSE TWO EXTRA OFFICIALS
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
No shit.
This is awful.
Wilder. - October 19, 2010
At least they're reviewing it.
Mariner John - October 19, 2010
Watch them review the other play by accident, realize they're idiots, and blow a call in the Rangers favor later to make up for it.
CapSea - October 19, 2010
FAN INTERFERENCE!
Mariner John - October 19, 2010
Berkman should be forced to round the bases backwards.
Wilder. - October 19, 2010
Lance Berkman and the Yankees didn't even argue, whichmeans that from the dugout they could see it was foul.
And the umpires still called it fair upon initial review.
CapSea - October 19, 2010
Hit the foul pole
lemonverbena - October 19, 2010
apparently it did not.
Paul AB - October 19, 2010
Ahoy!
lemonverbena - October 19, 2010
Microchips in footballs have been mentioned.
How about baseballs? Seems easy enough.

It appears to the "double-wank"
BRKLN M'S - October 19, 2010
That would describe the gentleman quite well
JLC - October 19, 2010
Oops! I meant "appears to BE the double wank"
BRKLN M'S - October 19, 2010
I rather preferred him conjuring the "double-wank" with those gestures.
Even though I have no idea what the “double-wank” is, it seemed like something George Lucas could monetize with a Pizza Hut tie-in.
misterjonez - October 19, 2010
Yankee fans' reputation as insufferable douchebags is well deserved
lemonverbena - October 19, 2010
They are certainly the most arrogant, in my experience

It's weird -- Why do they smell like Philly chessesteak???
kevin_ess - October 19, 2010
I was going to post something about how his friends and family were going to see him online....
But then I realized that they probably already know he’s a jerk.

Human garbage.
sanford_and_son - October 19, 2010
Years ago, I sat behind some guys just like those guys
It was in Detroit at a Tigers game. They had taken a bus from New York for the game. They had started drinking when they got on the bus.
Paul AB - October 19, 2010
I'm impressed they were awake
BRKLN M'S - October 19, 2010
They were Yankee fans.
Drink doesn’t make them pass out. It just makes them more obnoxious.

Just take the pills we gave you and close your eyes.
kevin_ess - October 19, 2010
Just be happy we have a new manager that wants to give "110 Percent."

The pills help us accept 110% as a real possiblity.

I AM SO SICK OF SWALLOWING.
kevin_ess - October 19, 2010
Dude, I have a friend namned Fucker.
I had no idea these Yankees were in with him.
kevin_ess - October 19, 2010
I'm not sure if I want to see Hereafter or not.
On the one hand Clint Eastwood and Matt Damon. On the other, uh what?
Mariner John - October 19, 2010
It looks awful and I've stopped giving Clint the benefit of the doubt.
Add in some very mixed reviews and unless it’s nominated for 20 Oscars there’s no way I’m seeing it.
drblacknwhite - October 19, 2010
Why were you giving him the benefit of the doubt? Unforgiven?
BRKLN M'S - October 19, 2010
Pretty much.
There’s been some decent ones since then, like Letters from Iwo Jima, but his last few have been downright terrible.
drblacknwhite - October 19, 2010
I'm really mad he's getting to do the Hoover movie.
That shit was meant for Oliver Stone
BRKLN M'S - October 19, 2010
Stone hasn't exactly done anything decent recently either.
Though an Eastwood-Dustin Lance Black collaboration is not something I ever would have envisioned.
drblacknwhite - October 19, 2010
Gran Torino was pretty good.
Big Jared - October 19, 2010
I liked Million Dollar Baby, Letters From Iwo Jima, and Gran Torino.
He’s doing well, as far as I’m concerned.
misterjonez - October 19, 2010
Is Bud Selig a lich?
Paul AB - October 19, 2010
Soon to be demi-lich.
Just gotta get some of those gems installed in his mouth. He’s stolen enough souls, I’d wager.
misterjonez - October 19, 2010
So I just looked up Robinson Cano's stats for the first time.
Him winning the MVP would be akin to CC winning the Cy Young.
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
You forgot to add the extra points for playing for the Yankees.
Droid Rage - October 19, 2010
So the guy who who ran onto the field yesterday was trying to hurt A-Rod because he's dating Cameron Diaz.
Also, I never would have guessed that a guy named Grim LeRogue was crazy.
drblacknwhite - October 19, 2010
Now there's an informative headline.
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
At least try not to sound elated when the Yankees get a hit, Ernie.
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
Elvis Andrus:
Still really good.
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
How did that get through the infield?
Everyone knows Derek Jeter has amazing range…
romdal - October 19, 2010
Go 26th man!
CapSea - October 19, 2010
I really hope Hamilton goes yard after the fan interference with Gardner
JLC - October 19, 2010
Aw :(
JLC - October 19, 2010
It would have been karma.
Paul AB - October 19, 2010
Derek Holland goes 3-0 on Curtis Granderson after Granderson attempts to bunt 3 times
And then walks him on the next pitch.
JLC - October 19, 2010
I just did many things around the house and...holyshitwhatthehell it's still the 5th inning
BRKLN M'S - October 19, 2010
This is boring
surfmonkey89 - October 19, 2010
That doesn't look good.
drblacknwhite - October 19, 2010
That slide by Teixeira was the most retarded slide I
JLC - October 19, 2010
*I've ever seen
But on the replay I now realize that he pulled a hamstring while running, so disregard
JLC - October 19, 2010
He didn't even slide head first.
Slurvey - October 19, 2010
That looks like a pretty legit hamstring injury
BRKLN M'S - October 19, 2010
Once again via Das Twitter der Jeff
BRKLN M'S - October 19, 2010
You don't even need to see their faces to know they're douches.
JY - October 19, 2010
Sometimes fans down the line think the ball is foul and they go after it,
but these guys clearly knew the ball was in play, and their own player was going after it. But that wasn’t going to deter them.
Paul AB - October 19, 2010
This is the Cano 'dinger'
BRKLN M'S - October 19, 2010
Ah
thought it was the later play down the third base line.
Paul AB - October 19, 2010
Their own player hit it.

HamFighter! - October 19, 2010
It has to do with making comments easier to read, part of the LL commenting guidelines, linked on the sidebar of the front page
Also, it allows individual comments to be link-able
BRKLN M'S - October 19, 2010
Got it. Thus, the '.' subject titles.. Thanks.
HamFighter! - October 19, 2010
I didn't see those guidelines before..
I assumed the ‘.. read this’, this, and this..’ links were the usual legal BS I ignore when signing something. ;).. But understood. Thanks.

I am now happy that the Rangers are winning.
This is awkward.
JY - October 19, 2010
I'm not going to lie, as a long-time NYC resident, it's simply impossible to root for the Yankees
BRKLN M'S - October 19, 2010
I wanted to root for them.
The Rangers getting WS money would suck and I am hoping that whoever wins the NLCS would just destroy the Yankees. I wanted to see them get their hopes up only to be utterly crushed later.
JY - October 19, 2010
Me too
It’s just so difficult to keep wanting it when you have to watch them.
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
Exactly. It's in my blood like a virus. Unconditional Yankee hate.
BRKLN M'S - October 19, 2010
I'm in the same boat. They can't get WS money.
Yet, this is painful to watch.

This is the worst game ever.
CapSea - October 19, 2010
This is worse than a 17 inning Oakland/Mariner game with Greg Olson pitching.

I figure I should get done right around the bottom of the ninth.

Nolan Ryan's gonna win this bitch.
Mariner John - October 19, 2010
Jon Daniels who?
Nolan Ryan nuff said.
w00tah - October 19, 2010
Did anyone else hear Molina on that home plate celebration?
the announcers claim he said “take that”
The fcc will surely disagree
Awesome

I guess Feliz is only for seven run leads
surfmonkey89 - October 19, 2010
Is it just me, or does Molina's chest protector look like a bib when he's standing?

Nothing but bad feelings right now.

More controversy!
drblacknwhite - October 19, 2010
27.00 ERA Oliver
HamFighter! - October 19, 2010
He just improved to 18.00!
HamFighter! - October 19, 2010
Why didn't Girardi argue that? It got his pant leg clearly.
Decatur - October 19, 2010
Has arguing a call ever changed a call?
This is an honest question, but I’m guessing no.
doublemazaa - October 19, 2010
He can force the umpires to convene, which could get it changed if other umps saw differently from another angle. But it's probably unlikely to be changed on a HBP.
Decatur - October 19, 2010
TBS advocating cheating.
Eyeball Kid - October 19, 2010
Michael Young makes the play this time.

It looks like the Yankees are going to have to face Lee one more time.
This is so difficult. Texas cannot go to the World Series, yet, I cannot cheer for Lee to lose.
TrustBaseball - October 19, 2010
This is still not a comfortable lead.

John Lithgow should play him in the movie.
wazzu93 - October 19, 2010
Damn, Nolan turned into the baseball equivalent of Jake LaMotta...
so much for the work outs. When I saw him I was reminded of an old Saturday Night Live skit where the Starship Enterprise is turned into a revolving restaurant. Khan is the health inspector and starts docking Kirk for not having a sneeze guard over the salad bar. Out of no where comes this fat Asian guy playing Sulu and Khan blurts out, “Sulu? My God, man, what happened to you?”
Nolan Ryan is fat.
But he can still kick my ass.
RustyJohn - October 19, 2010
Mass exodus out of the stadium.

Yankee fans just know how to watch baseball.
Best fans in baseball.
w00tah - October 19, 2010
So the fans that interfered with the homerun ball already left the stadium?
ThundaPC - October 19, 2010
Hopefully to swallow a bullet.

ThundaPC - October 19, 2010
Yankees fans behind home plate disappeared, then reappeared when the NYY had the basses loaded, then disappeared again after they missed their chance.
I’ve just never seen that happen before. Is that SOP for club-level dickheads?
Jesus Jones - October 19, 2010
The kind of people who have the money to throw at that may be doing it just for the status anyway.
We’re talking about New York here.
JY - October 19, 2010
I would guess it has to do with wanting to be imprinted in Yankee Lore
by being present in the video library, should the Yankees make an epic comeback. That’s bragging rights for the rest of your life, I guess.
