Bell-Whore Update

Credit Jere for the "Bell-whore", by the way, which is just beautiful.

Just as Nixon hit the walk-off ball, Marky-Mark hit into a fielder's choice, which was really a double play ball that was messed up by the Mariners shortstop covering second.

The yanks have let Bell-whore keep the chops- although they are painstakingly clean and trim, making them look dorky rather than retro. His hair has been cut (which needed to happen anyway, I've been saying for months.) The ends are about two inches below the batting helmut. Tonight it was all curled up awkwardly and frizzy, but this is a good length for him, I think. Give it a week to grow in, and he might actually look cute... er, that is, if he were in a different uniform. And I'm actually not saying this to be bitter; he really looks sickly.

General yank update:

Moose will be missing his next start due to inflamation on the inside of the left elbow, which has supposedly been bothering him for a year now.

Chacon is finally pitching on par with his abilities tonight, having given up five in the second. That's 5-0, Mariners at post time, which I have corrected to be accurate.

update 11:08 -
the score is now 5-2. Bellhorn just ended the inning with the second pitch of his second at-bat, grounding out to third. The first pitch, by the way, was a beautiful swing and miss.

update 11:32 -
the score is now 8-2.

update 1:11 -
Seattle wins 8-3. I have to be up at six and have NO business being up. Still I'm waiting long enough for the post-game, just so I can give you info you could obtain just as easily from the box-score. ok, here it is: Bell-whore went 0-4 tonight.

Comments:
You're so colorful today Reb. And re my comment in Jere's blog, Chacon did come back to a more humanlike form last night.
