Details on the incident that reportedly sent Germán to rehab I figured that Germán didn’t just spontaneously decide to enter treatment. I don’t picture him coming back to the Yankees next year.
-
So the Yankees trade for a third-rate reliever. Whoopty-freakin’-do.
-
Or if Boone had taken Sevy out in the first inning(like Girardi did in the 2017 WC game).
-
I think so(IIRC, Alice changed Marcia’s ice cream sundae to a fruit cup).
-
Yankees fire hitting coach Dillon Lawson. I like how they always use the formal “relieved of his duties” and not, say, “kicked his ass to the curb.”
-
According to The New York Post, he suffered an orbital fracture and is at home resting.
-
I hope the cameraman who was struck by a foul ball at the Yankee game is doing OK.
-
For me, it was the home run against the Twins in 2019, followed by the incredible lunging catch to end the game and preserve the win.
-
Wow, the Yankees fans really let Aaron Hicks have it. 😧
-
I was surprised to learn that Germán is the first Dominican-born pitcher to throw a perfect game. For some reason, I thought Felix Hernandez was Dominican, but he’s actually from Venezuela.
-
Me too, Mojo. At least we have highlight videos and Yankees Encore. (I can’t remember who it was, but one perfect-game pitcher said that he’s signed more baseballs for people claiming to have been at the game than were actually there.)
-
Kind of like David Cone’s against the Expos(except for Vlad Sr.) But I’ll take it. 🙂
-
Yeah, at one point I screamed “GET HIM OUT OF THERE, BOONE!” so loud that I startled my cat.
-
“Why should I not be put in hell/To suffer for all time…” Yikes. -
In “Is There A Doctor In The House?”, the measles were treated like “eh, a slight fever and a few spots, no big deal.” Which, of course, had some…interesting implications later.
-
Those unis remind me of this:
-
The case I remember was a mid-to-late-30ish man with an 8-year-old daughter who had lost his wife to an aggressive form of breast cancer. He mentioned that he’d considered becoming a priest in his teens, “but then I discovered girls.”
-
Plus there are(admittedly rare)cases of widowers entering the priesthood following the death of their wives; it happened in my diocese back in the 90s.
-
That myth has been around for years, just like “The Duggars get free healthcare for life because JB served in the Arkansas House of Representatives.”
-
In their first book, I think Michelle says that she used ACE(Accelerated Christian Education)for the elementary grades, which has its own issues(“Slavery wasn’t really *that* bad; not all masters were cruel, and many slaves were brought to Jeebus!”)..

And IIRC, Park pitched briefly for the Yankees. Today’s trivia question was ridiculously easy: “These 4 future Hall of Famers played in the 1998 World Series”(Tony Gwynn, Trevor Hoffman, Mo, and Jeter).

I don’t have Peacock. I listened to it on the MLB app.

Cincinnati’s City Connect jerseys look like pajamas.

When the Yankees and Red Sox played in London in 2019, they converted a soccer pitch. I’m assuming they’ll do the same next time. ETA: From the London Series Wikipedia article:
