A brief recap of Thursday afternoon inside the Bronx & Beans office:
Bottom 8, Yanks down 7-6.
Johnny Damon at the plate. He hits a shot to deep right that Toronto's Brad Wilkerson runs down at the wall. Bean Dennehy takes a pot shot at his former Idiot ringleader. Bronx La Monica utters something like "If only his mustache was a bit thicker, that would have been gone." Bronx-in-training Dwyer mutters something about Giambi's bushy stash.
Bottom 9, Yanks down 8-7.
Bronx La Monica looks over at the TV, sees a runner on first, two outs and Giambi trotting back to the plate after a grounder went foul down the first-base line. "Giambi two-run bomb to end it? A little mustache madness?"
Bean Dennehy grumbles in his seat.
Boom! Let the world rejoice, for the mustache has done it again! Yanks win, 9-8.
Bean Dennehy grumbles in his seat.
Moments after the game
Mama La Monica calls in to make sure we saw Giambi's bomb. She's anti-mustache. Big Cat of Campus Confidential fame calls in to make sure we knew YES reporter Kimberly Jones asked Giambi about the future of his mustache and that he said it's never going away.
Bean Dennehy grumbles in his seat.
