Renteria wins game with hit in bottom of 10th.

Which looks very similar to:


David Ortiz wins Game 5 of the 2004 ALCS with hit in bottom of 14th.

Look kids!  It\'s newly-eternally-bitter Yankee fan!  Observe how newly-eternally-bitter Yankee fan has also not said anything in this thread for the last two weeks.  In fact, nobody has at all.  We are all on the same level.  But when anybody comes in here to highlight a good game for their team, with no derogatory mention of anyone else\'s team at all, newly-eternally-bitter Yankee fan can do nothing but be bitter.  Newly-eternally-bitter Yankee fan is encouraged to post when the Yankees have a particularly good game, and to stop being so bitter and mean when others do the same.

"Harper told three friends he was sitting with that he was going to test whether the net would hold his weight -- and then he jumped, police said.  Police arrested Harper on charges of disorderly conduct and reckless endangerment. He was awaiting arraignment Wednesday in Bronx Criminal Court,"

what a dope!

"That was the only exciting thing that happened today," Yankees owner George Steinbrenner said after Chicago\'s 2-1 victory.

kid was clearly DRUNK.. good lord.. f\'in idiot..

we were surprised they showed it on YES.. usually they cut away when idiots try to get their 15 minutes..

while i woulda loved to have seen the kid fall and crack his skull, he was above a LOT of people and someone *else* would have got VERY hurt, if not killed, so i\'m glad he crawled his way out..

[Spacey]

I heard about this on the radio today and did not nderstand what they were talking about. Glad to have that all cleared up.

the kid went to my fucking high school!!! he was in the grade below me!! i used to get wasted with his older bro when i was a freshman..funny funny shit

[Jim Cobb]

yeah, haha i\'m friends with his mom...

[Wolfman]

He\'s definitely not the first person to fall into that net either.  It happened against the Red Sox maybe 4-5 years ago, and other times besides that.  Good thing that net is tight.  I wonder if they check it to make sure it is drunken-idiot worthy.  Does this happen at other stadiums?

yep, 2000 against the sox.

hey, they got 2 examples that it\'s drunk idiot proof.

[Whathefunk]

Not at Fenway... :lol:

But since they put in the monster seats last season, i\'ve been waiting for someone to reach for a ball just short of a homer and just free fall into left :hehehe:  nah j/k, but sometimes it really looks like people are going to drop, its nuts! they always look all scared and stuff when it happens.

[Wolfman]

Haha yeah impossible to jump onto the net at Fenway unless your name is Rem-Dawg or Joe Castiglione.  But I agree, it looks like someone\'s due to fall out of the 3-foot barrier on the monster seats.  Thing is though, they\'ve had a 3-foot barrier in center field from the beginning and I don\'t think anyone\'s ever fallen off of that.

BTW, Sox explode for biggest inning of the year (9 run eighth) to sweep the Rangers!
