Yankees-Red Sux
Here’s some breaking news for you.
I don’t particularly care for Yankees-Red Sux matchups.
It all started in the late 70’s.
I hated Jim Rice and Bill Lee and really was pissed at Mike Torrez for going over there. When Bucky F***ing Dent put it over the wall...
...I thought it was pretty comical.
In the 80’s, I hated Clemens and Boggs.
Even when they came over to the Yankees in the 90’s, I never truly warmed to them.
Yet, I used to hang with Red Sux fans and the back and forth was fun.
It got ugly in the early 2000’s.
I hated, really hated, Pedro and Manny and Ortiz.
I still can’t stand the sight of them in uniform. Curt Schilling has to be asshole number 1 for me because of his mouth and the fake blood on his sock.
Still galls me!
And they finally won a few.
I didn’t watch a pitch of any of the World Series games they played.
Recently, the starch was out of the rivalry.
Boston finished last a couple of times. That made me laugh.
On Thursday, Tyler Austin slid into second, with his spikes high. I didn’t give it a seconds thought, even when Holt and Austin discussed it and the benches emptied and everyone picked a dance partner.
But then I got mad again.
Joe Kelly drilled Austin with a pitch.
“How ridiculous,” I thought.
And now it’s game on again.
Kelly is involved in this type of garbage every year. He’s a little coward who throws hard, and seems to really enjoy plugging guys.
I could see the rage in Austin’s face.
I woke on Thursday morning to a text from a Red Sux fan.
“His spikes were high!” My buddy said.
“Then why didn’t Holt fight him? Hit a guy when he’s batting? Cowards!”
And during the battle I just kept thinking:
“Don’t fight! No injuries!!”
But deep down...
...I thought about Judge, Stanton and CC...
...all massive humans...
...body-slamming a couple of Sux.
Could’ve been fun.
Game on!
