2014 New York Yankees season thread Vol. (84-78) .. Essential's Offseason thread coming soon

Move over Jason Giambi Gold Thong, make room for Shawn Kelley's Horse Mask!
Here’s a fun little story in the middle of the Yankees’ five-game winning streak. Jeff Passan wrote about the 2014 version of Jason Giambi’s gold thong: Shawn Kelley’s horse mask. It’s exactly what it sounds like, a giant latex horse mask. Here’s a photo. Apparently Kelley stumbled across it online one day, bought one, and started wearing it during pre-game warm-ups and in the clubhouse to keep the team loose.

“When I see those things, randomly in a crowd, it makes me laugh. So I figured I’ll do that, and it’ll make everyone laugh in the clubhouse,” said Kelley. “And then we went on a winning streak.” The Yankees are a perfect 5-0 since the horse mask they’ve dubbed Seabiscuit — they really dropped the ball by not called it Tex or Teixeira or something like that — so it stays. Baseball players are a superstitious lot. Say it with me, folks: the latex horse mask that turned the season around.
So we all gonna change our avys like last time?

The shrimp! :lol totally forgot about that one. Good times :hat

IDK if I'll switch to this one, I switched yesterday and we lost :lol
 
I didn't catch the whole game...were they in trouble in the 8th and 9th? You'd think that's a game to get these weary guys some rest.
 
Good thing there were 2 outs for Jeter in the 3rd with a runner on first because he hit another 6-4-3 Double Play ball :{
