"they should be disillusioned, they should be despondent, they should be depressed."
-chipper stuff from the YES postgame.

Not here
I love beating the Yankees in ways that make their fans feel like they've been kicked in the balls by a horse.

When all hope was seemingly lost, Dom Smith hit a pinch single. I want Casas back yesterday, but I like Dom, and he seems like a good guy in the clubhouse.

I woke up at 7am in Rome and mostly kept my eyes open for the end of this one after making it home to Boston. Now I feel like playing two.

This was a game of little moments like that

He seems like an important guy in the room and he deserves a roster spot at the very least in the late inning defense at first base role.

Horn and Booser were great, and it was a really nice bounceback from Slaten after a rough day yesterday.

What a great fucking win and what a fun fucking team.
The youthful energy is off the hook. L'il Rafi's home run trot alone starting with the cocky swag of knowing it was gone followed by the how bout that let's hear it hand wave followed by look at these guns followed by a hop skip. I rewound it 4 times!

twitter: "Awesome at-bat. He never gave up, fighting to the end," -Ceddanne Rafaela on teammate Masataka Yoshida's dramatic game tying home run.

Yeah it would be tough to cut him now... his bat isn't great but his defense is pretty good - I almost turned it off when was pinch hitting... but sure enough proven wrong in a good way. But he seems to enjoy the team and would be great in the clubhouse. Not sure what you do... but a IL visit maybe when Casas comes back or something.

Seemed like they were really close all night, lots of fouls straight back aside from Romy ripping it his first two ABs.

And the Yanks didn’t do shit all night except draw walks, really glad we didn’t let them get away with the cheap win when they could’ve easily been shut out.

The late squander sucked real hard but even so it is always fun to see them terrorizing pitchers and catchers alike on the bases making something out of nothing. Such a fun team.

Massive props to the middle relief as well.

What a win. Nutpunching the Yankees can never ever get old as it is proof that there is a benevolent God who loves us.

WFAN show after the postgame: Boone not the problem, players are the issue.

That may be mostly true, but it’s the same old shit with the Yankees year after year. When is Boone going to be held accountable?

I don't care much about who makes the all-star team, and frankly I usually prefer our guys to get the time off instead of playing in it, but Kenley Jansen should be an all-star. He's been fantastic this year, and we would be so much worse without him.
