A post game quote from Yankees manager Joe Girardi (courtesy of http://yankees.lhblogs.com/):

"We have to come out and swing good and pitch well."

Wow!

Thanks, Joe!

6:41 - The regular season for the New York Yankees is, in fact, (finally) over.

6:40 - Arizona 5, Houston 3 (F). Yankees host wild card game on Tuesday.

"Thank You, Arizona!"

- tentative title of early-2016 documentary on the 2015 Yankees (directed by Bob Feathers Jr.)

6:08 - Baltimore wins 9-4. The Yankees, in need of just two victories during the final WEEK of the regular season to secure a home game in the AL Wild Card Game, won once.

5:14 - 5:49 - Orioles succeeding, Yankees failing, part 2

5:00 - 5:13 - Orioles succeeding, Yankees failing.

4:59 - I mean it: is it over?

4:49 - Arizona 2, Houston 2.

The Yankees can 1. play poorly and 2. still back into a home game in Tuesday's AL Wild Card Game with a Houston loss.

This is absolutely the first/last? time I'm cheering for the Arizona Diamondbacks.

4:46 - CCH didn't go well (5-1 Orioles), Meanwhile: Arizona 2, Houston 1 (top 5)

4:43 - CCH isn't going well.

4:38 - Let us begin Chris Capunao Hour (CCH)

4:36 - Is the regular season over yet?

4:34 - IYOI

4:17 - The Yankees have left 277 players on base through four innings (Ellis Sports Bureau)

3:59 - IYOI

3:50 - Brett Gardner just took five pitches (three strikes). I'm not sure there's a better description for what it was like to watch Gardner hit the past two months.

3:44 - Every once in a while I'll express my disbelief that a player is still active at the highest level of professional baseball, then type his name and add some punctuation.

Today's winner is:

J.J. Hardy?!

3:34.15 - Chase Headley isn't a good hitter.

3:33 - I need to pay someone upwards of 15 peanut shells to find out how many ground-rule doubles the Yankees have hit this season. It has to be close to a team record.

Greg Bird has one to start the second.

3:14 - Infuriating Yankee Offensive Inning (IYOI) - 1 (of 1)

3:07 - I wasn't quick enough to get the screen shot, but the man in this photograph












was wearing an LSU sweatshirt and the man a few feet to his left had on a Detroit Tigers t-shirt.

Yanks-O's!

3:04 - Game 300 is underway.

2:45 pm - For the 29th consecutive season, I'm proud to say I've not watched a single second of Pre-Game Baseball!

I could not have done it without him
