It's the Yankees, it's a four game series, we're going to hit 200 comments any second now. I occasionally check in on my phone and scrolling down to the bottom is a chore.
Parker, it was agreed later, had crushed the pitch, hitting the ball exactly in its middle with the middle of his bat, so that it flew toward Dauer without any spin - a knuckleball, in short, which took a sudden and characteristic knuckleball veer at the last instant and skipped free. Tim Foli, running toward second, was the nearest witness, and he said later, "I could see the seams of the ball, so I knew what had happened. It was so strange to see a ball hit that way, and hit so hard, that I yelled 'Look out!' as it went by me. Dauer never had a chance."

Welcome to quaint, old Fenway Park.
Sorry baby
We call it like we see it in Chicago
All right then - the White Sox are bad.
Well the danger on the rocks is surely past
Still I remain tied to the mast
Home at last.
Playoffs, baby! Hang on, Tampa Bay already won their game.
It's inter-league ball. Cool.
You said, "Vegas is beautiful at night"
And it's not about the money,
you just like the lights
That was one weird road trip.
Yikes. Let's get out of Tampa Bay. It remains a place where Blue Jays go to die.
Welcome to Steinbrenner Field. At least it's not the bloody Trop.
Well, Blue Jays. You now have our undivided attention.
