Top of the ninth inning, the Yankees have two runners on in a game they trail by two, and two out.

My brother: Come on Cervelli! Hit a home run!
Me: You’d better hope Cervelli hits a home run here; Ramiro Peña is on deck.
My brother: *facepalm*

(Yes, he did a literal facepalm).

Anyway, that’s basically what you need to know about the game. Here are some pictures, because when you get great seats, you have to take pictures.


Why yes, that is Phil Hughes, taking batting practice



He’s even getting some tips from Cervelli


Pelfrey taking his warm up tosses


Alex at the bat. He got out, like most of the rest of the offense.


Hey look! A Yankee reached base!


Game action.


You got Cerv’d!


“I’m going to stand on this step all alone and stare at the white line painted on the field just because I can. It means I am a Major Leaguer. I am thus better than you.”


Randy Winn made it to third base! Photographic evidence!


Obligatory wide-out shot


“You ate five Double Downs before the game? For real?”
“Pfft. The food here sucks.”


“Swish, man, listen to me. The thing is, see how greasy those dreads get. Do you really want that?”
