Yankees Outdid Themselves in Series Loss, Hence Sarcasm
NYY @ KC
This series had it all: a horrendous outing by Carlos RodĂłn, a lack of offense by the Yanks (no surprise there), and potentially saying goodbye to veteran starting pitcher for KC, Zack Greinke.
Game 1
As mentioned before, LHP Carlos RodĂłn got the start for the New York Yankees versus veteran RHP Jordan Lyles and the Kansas City Royals.
The trouble for the Yankees began in the bottom of the first inning with RodĂłn on the hill.
Straight out the gate, 3B Maikel Garcia got a single off RodĂłn followed by SS Bobby Witt, Jr. getting a walk.
Next, longtime Royal and 1B Salvador Perez hit a two-run RBI 2B off RodĂłn, scoring Garcia and Witt, Jr. The Royals took an early 2-0 lead against the Yankees.
After that, LF Edward Olivares hit a two-run HR off RodĂłn, scoring Perez and himself. The Royals extended their lead to 4-0.
RF Nelson Velazquez and DH Nick Loftin then hit back-to-back 1Bs off RodĂłn before Yankees pitching coach Matt Blake held a conference on the mound with Rodon and C Austin Wells.
What was interesting about this exchange was that RodĂłn purposely squeezed himself in between Blake and Wells to turn his back toward the pitching coach.
RodĂłn then proceeded to shoo away Blake with his glove on his right hand. Blake wasnât finished with what he had to say to RodĂłn, but the lefty pitcher continued to wave off his coach.
RodĂłn was fired up and frustrated with his performance during this first inning. However, despite this and Blakeâs lack of experience as a coach in MLB, the southpawâs actions were disrespectful and inexcusable.
After the heated interchange ceased, 2B Matt Duffy hit an RBI 1B off RodĂłn, scoring Velazquez. It was now 5-0 Royals.
After Loftin stole third base, RodĂłn walked C Logan Porter. Without an out recorded in the inning, Yankees manager Aaron Boone removed RodĂłn â who threw 35 pitches â from the game.
With the bases loaded, reliever Matt Bowman was called upon to prevent any further damage in this game. Unfortunately, that didnât happen for this righty pitcher.
CF Kyle Isbel hit a two-run RBI 2B off Bowman, scoring Loftin and Duffy. The Royals extended their lead to 7-0 versus the Yankees.
Garcia in his second at-bat and plate appearance of the first inning hit an RBI 1B off Bowman, scoring Porter from third base. It was now 8-0 Royals.
The line on RodĂłn was complete with all eight of his earned runs scoring.
The first out of the inning was recorded when Witt, Jr. hit a sacrifice fly off Bowman. However, a run did score with Isbel crossing home plate.Â
The scoreboard had another crooked number added to it with the Royals ahead of the Yankees 9-0.
After Perez hit a single â his second hit of the inning â Bowman ended the inning by retiring Olivares and Velazquez via a force-out and strikeout looking, respectively.
In the top of the bottom of the third inning, Perez grounded into a force-out with reliever Randy Vasquez on the mound. Garcia scored on this play and it became 10-0 Royals.
In the top of the fourth inning, Wells hit a three-run HR off Lyles, scoring DH Aaron Judge and 2B Gleyber Torres. The Yankees trailed the Royals 10-3.
youtube
In the top of the fifth inning, LF Everson Pereira hit an RBI ground ball for an out, scoring 3B Oswald Peraza with Lyles still pitching. The Yankees now trailed 10-4 against the Royals.
In the top of the sixth inning, Wells hit a ground ball for an out versus Lyles, scoring Judge. The deficit was cut in half with the score at 10-5 in favor of the Royals.
In the bottom of the seventh inning, Witt, Jr. hit a two-run HR off reliever Keynan Middleton, who recently came off the injured list. Isbel and Witt, Jr. scored, making it 12-5 Royals.
With the Royals adding those insurance runs, they won by the score of 12-5 against the Yankees in this game.
Game 2
RHP Clarke Schmidt got the nod for the Yankees versus opening pitcher Steven Cruz and the Royals.
In the bottom of the first inning, Velazquez hit an RBI 1B off Schmidt, scoring Garcia. The Royals took a 1-0 lead.
In the bottom of the third inning, Perez as the DH hit a solo HR off Schmidt, extending the Royalsâ lead to 2-0.
In the top of the fourth, RF Oswaldo Cabrera hit an RBI 1B off reliever and bulk pitcher Alec Marsh. Torres scored and the Yankees trailed the Royals 2-1.
youtube
In the same inning, Pereira hit an RBI 1B off Marsh, scoring 1B Jake Bauers. The game was tied at 2-2.
In the top of the sixth inning, CF Estevan Florial hit an RBI 1B off reliever Collin Snider. C Kyle Higashioka scored and the Yankees led 3-2.
Later in the inning, Torres hit a two-run RBI 1B off Snider, scoring Florial and 3B-1B DJ LeMahieu. The Yankees extended their lead to 5-2 and won by this score.
Ironically in his only appearance this season, RHP Frankie Montas got a win for himself out of the bullpen.
Game 3
RHP Michael King looked to cement his role as a starter for next season for the Yankees against RHP Zack Greinke in his second stint with the Royals.
In the bottom of the second inning, RF MJ Melendez hit a solo HR off King, giving the Royals a 1-0 lead.
Later in the same inning, 1B Nick Pratto hit an RBI 1B off King, scoring CF Dairon Blanco. The Royals extended their lead to 2-0.
In the bottom of the fourth inning, Olivares hit a solo HR off King, extending the Royalsâ lead to 3-0.
Another home run was hit in this inning off King via a solo shot by Blanco, giving the Royals a 4-0 lead.
In the bottom of the fifth inning, Perez as the catcher in this game hit a sac fly off reliever Jhony Brito to Cabrera in right field. Witt, Jr. scored and the Royals extended their lead to 5-0.
Before the Yankees scored any runs in the top of the sixth inning, Greinke was taken out after walking LeMahieu to start this inning.
With Greinke taking the game ball and putting it in his back pocket as a souvenir, you would think that the 39-year-old pitcher has decided to call it a career and retire.
However, Greinke didnât announce at the start of this season that it would be his last one. Who knows for sure, right?
Anyway, fast forward to when reliever Taylor Clarke took over for Greinke in this game in the top of the sixth inning.
With runners in scoring position after Wellsâ double, 3B Isiah Kiner-Falefa hit a two-run RBI 1B off Clarke.
LeMahieu and Wells scored with this clutch, two-out hit by IKF. The Yankees trailed the Royals 5-2 and unfortunately lost by this score.
The Yankees showed baseball fans why they couldnât make the postseason this year. They lost a series that they shouldâve won.
The Royals had over 100 losses this season and still beat the Yankees due to shaky pitching and not getting timely hits consistently.
Even though the Yankees had a winning season at 82-80, it was a shoddy winning season.
The positive attributes that I take away from this season for the Yankees are the following:
IFK resurging as a super-utility player instead of starting at SS. Hopefully, IFK and the Yankees agree to a reasonable contract for next season.
Anthony Volpe showing a glimmer of hope as the future SS with 21 HRs in his rookie year.
Aaron Judge playing respectable baseball by hitting 37 HRs even though he missed a third of the season with an unlucky and weird right-toe injury while playing against the Los Angeles Dodgers in June.
Michael King pitching well enough as a starter to secure a spot in the rotation for next season.
CF Jasson Dominguez getting called up by the Yankees in September. The Martian played eight games for the Bronx Bombers and hit four home runs before needing surgery on a torn UCL.

Israel is burning people alive in Gaza.
Scenes of untold horror are emerging from the vicinity of Al Aqsa Martyrs' Hospital in Deir Al Balah, where the Zionist occupation dropped massively destructive bombs on displacement tents roughly two hours ago.
Witnesses at the scene recorded footage of Palestinian civilians being burned alive in front of them. Due to the power and size of the fires that ignited, witnesses were helpless to aid those that burned alive in the impacted tents.
The 2-ton bombs that Israel has been using for over a year to carry out its genocide on Gaza are made in the US, Canada and the UK. They are transported to Gaza by shipping giant Maersk, with the seal of approval from the American, Canadian, and British governments.
History will record the genocide of Palestine as one that was facilitated by Western powers.
We will never forgive or forget.
#Israel bombs the tents of displaced families and burns them ALIVE in Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital courtyard in central Gaza Strip#Gazan people burned alive in their tents tonight#Israel is burning people alive#this is genocide#this is Zionism#al aqsa hospital#deir el balah#free palestine#palestine#free gaza#gaza strip#gaza#this is US policy#gazaunderattack#save gaza

Civilian Gothamites realizing they can get vengeance through Sword!Robin
Gothamites figuring out if they happen to mention a rogue treating animals poorly within hearing range of sword!Robin that rogue will be in custody with at least four fractures and a concussion and Damian being completely aware that like 63% of these people are lying but itâs the only way he can get experience with the nonlethal takedowns heâs experimenting with bc everyone keeps complaining about how he treats his opponents and alliesÂ
Like heâs guiding a civilian to safety and they mention that âthis would be the worst thing to happen to me today if riddler didnât stab my fucking catâ and this civilian does not own a cat but they did own a car that was just paid off but riddler fucking crushed it with a stupid ass hot air balloon thatâs shaped like a fucking question mark and Damian is aware of this bc he was the one that verified the insurance claim (but heâs been looking for a reason to punch Nygma in the throat since his last Arkham escape when he called Damian a moron)
And he also knows that if he plays along with it and says âas if Iâd let that gaudy and tactless imbecile get away with committing such atrocitiesâ when prompted that heâll get away with barely a slap on the wrist like he gets three half hearted but long lectures heâs not going to listen to and an online sensitivity training seminar he goads Tim into completing (Damian and Tim 100% try to trick each other into doing work they donât want to do and full heartedly believe the other has no idea what theyâre doing)
Bruceâs tendency for finding small crashouts at risk of becoming future rogues in Gotham and deciding they need love & supervision but what actually happens bc heâs so fucking awkward is they get almost the same amount of supervision just with like an hour of intense helicopter parenting a week but honestly besides that they just have more money and resources to do fuck shit
Tim đ¤ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ Damian: using the manipulation tactics they learned from their mothers then later improved on with help from an assassin cult and bat/cape interrogation questioning techniques on the homies
#Both central city and gotham are referred to as crashout central and no oneâs ever sure which city is being mentioned unless a cape is named#random Gotham civilians outsourcing a rogue getting their ass kicked to a middle schooler with a katana is fucking funny#Damian & Tim 100% try to trick each other into doing work they donât like and definitely believe the other has no idea what theyre doing#Whenever damian gets benched the civilians protest until heâs back on duty#and are just generally unhelpful like âanswer your questions?? Thatâs crazy I got a question for you: whereâs my guy??â#Random gothamite: Batmanâs so mean like free my guy đ he didnât even do anything?? Heâs just a little guy#Their friend visiting from out of state whoâs pretty sure they saw that kid fuck up a dinosaur with no backup: 𤨠ikyfl#the loa ninja who came for a welfare check: youâre joking right???#Sword!robin#robin 5#Robin V#gothamites definitely tried to count the robins but they change names heights & costumes so often that no oneâs really sure#so thereâs angry!Robin nerd!Robin emo!Robin blonde!Robin and sword!Robin#but thereâs also the theories of robin being an amalgamation of every child ghost in Gotham or a shapeshifter with an emo dad#only in gotham#dc civilians#Damian Wayne#Damian Al Ghul#Damian Al Ghul Wayne#dc robin#robin#dc comics#Civilian Gothamites: that polite young man!!#The bats & everyone else that knows Damian: đ¤¨#Damian currently using psychological warfare against scarecrow a rogue w/ a doctorate in psych and winning: dr crane?? more like dr cringe#Damian: sometimes I just get the urge to weep inconsolably not out of fear but bc I know you believe yourself to be a threat & thatâs false#Insurance companies in Gotham either make so much money itâs insane or every employee has 746 hits out on them at all times

NBC Sports: MLB 1985-GOW-6/22-New York Yankees @ Detroit Tigers: Full Game
. Source:The Daily Journal 1985 is the perfect example of why MLB shouldâve went to the three division format in both the American and National League with the playoff wildcards well before 1994. Because you had four ninety win teams in 1985 and each division champion wouldâve had at least ninety wins.

And we finish the low quality Classic Transformation Constellation of the Robin round-up with Damian, the Boy himself! He's about to Wonder his enemies something good
His Robin transformation also has black because of the influence of the Bat in his blood since he, like Duke, is the son of a Star and has some of the powers of said Star in his blood without needing a crystal for it.
Abilities:
Flight
Enhanced athletics
Enhanced healing
Colour Swirl: that charging light he looks about to spear you with is a colourful wave that bludgeons through enemies like a brick rain (tim can confirm)
Son of the Bat: this ability takes its roots both in the pre-existing parental link between the Constellations of the Bat and the Robin, and the parental relationship between most holders of the Robin and one of the holders of the Bat, as well as Damian's powerful drive to prove himself as Batman's son. When Robin is in the vicinity of a Bat, all of his abilities, physical and magical, are enhanced (up to 3 times more powerful) though that may be altered depending on his relationship with the current holder of the Bat.
#damian wayne#damian al ghul#robin v#btw you can suggest powers if you want#if a character doesn't have powers you think central to his character that's normal#these powers may come in other transformations#both because characters are complex and because these abilities are used for chara development#like Damian only needs semi transformation to talk to animals#there's also the fact that constellations are semi sentient and have relationships#so for ex of course Robin Steph and Spoiler Steph don't have the same abilities#magical girl robin#magical girl au#dc#magical girl damian wayne#magical girl damian al ghul#magical girl batfam#batfam magical girl au#magical batfam#dark magical girl#robin son of batman#batman & robin#damian wayne fanart#damian fanart#robin fanart#robin v fanart#Damian al ghul fanart

Sara Boboltz at HuffPost:
Four men of color wrongly accused of a New York assault in 1989 walked onstage at the Democratic National Convention on Thursday with strong words of criticism against one of their accusers: former President Donald Trump. Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, Korey Wise and Raymond Santana, four of the former âCentral Park Five,â appeared after an introduction from Rev. Al Sharpton. âLet me tell you, this is gonna be so beautiful. Together on Nov. 5th, we will usher in Kamala Harris and Tim Walz into the White House,â Salaam told the crowd. Along with Antron McCray, who was absent, the group of men were accused of brutally sexually assaulting a white female jogger in 1989, but they were exonerated more than a decade later, in 2002. The group, who were all teens or young adults when they were arrested, is now also known as the âExonerated Five.â
Trump infamously spent $85,000 on a full-page ad in The New York Times addressing the case: âBRING BACK THE DEATH PENALTY, BRING BACK OUR POLICE!â
Last night at the DNC, 4 of the Central Park Five (or Exonerated Five) appeared at the convention in Chicago alongside Al Sharpton to call out Donald Trump, who wanted them dead (or unalived). #DNC2024

Good Talia characterization and good Damian characterization can co-exist easily, they are not mutually exclusive whatsoever. Good Raâs characterization along with good characterization for either Talia and Damian cannot coexist eight out of ten times, they are mostly mutually exclusive.
#I know that a lot of people didnât like Robin (2021) and tbh I didnât read after 14 but I personally loved how they handled raâs#I think the fact that both Talia and Damian have been abused by the league is very center#central to both their characters. A well written raâs however would not abuse his daughter and grandson.#UNLESS and this is a big stretch and a big ifâ unless he finds way to justify it to himself as for the greater good of whatâs best for them#then itâs possible#but even thatâs hard to believe#so good characterization for raâs and Talia or Damian is mutually exclusive#one needs to be thrown under the bus and most times itâs either Talia or raâs#which makes me really mad cuz it just feeds into the âArab men are violent and abusersâ stereotype#I hate it but itâs the truth and it canât be changed#you either gotta villanize Talia or raâs to make things work#like all three of them are at their core compassionate. thatâs the emotion that drives all three of them.#dc comics#comics#talia al ghul#raâs al ghul#damian al ghul#Damian Wayne
