  1. Please god lets fuck up gerrit Cole, split this series, and regain our dignity

  2. Either Cole will lose control of one off his 98 MPH fastballs and bean a player, or one of Bassits 68 MPH Curves will bean a Yankee, which will result in the benches clearing.

    These are the types of funks that are going to make me miss having Teo’s bat in the middle of the order. What I would do for a 3 run home run after the 6th inning.

  3. At the risk of this comment aging like milk im just going to say that the Vladdy play didn’t look bad. He finished the inning. X-Ray comes back negative. He is in the lineup tomorrow.

  4. I was at the game yesterday, and I finally understand what u/justsomeaudioguy meant about the difference between the ambience at other stadiums and the Dome. It was just SO LOUD all the time, and the stadium just never gave people a chance to breathe and talk.

    I was with a friend who doesn’t know much baseball so I was explaining things to her, and I legit couldn’t get through a single concept at any point without having to stop and wait for some loud musical interruption to end. They barely allow 30 seconds of silence before pumping in some ridiculous crowd prompt or 2 lines of a song.

    It was not this bad last year, or even at the day game I went to last month. It really took away from the experience for me.
