Posted by meech.one at 6:58 pm ET 113 Comments

Once upon a time, A.J. Burnett was an impressionable young pitcher on the Florida Marlins.  During his time in the NL East, he was exposed to the celebratory ways of the other teams in his division.  Specifically — the Phillies, and even more specifically — Tomas Perez.  You see, A.J. has a “brand new” gimmick this year where he seeks out the hero of any particular Yankees game that they happen to win and shoves a towel filled with shaving cream in their face. In baseball circles, it’s known as “the pie”.

And A.J. Burnett blatantly stole that move from the originator — TOMAS PEREZ.

  22. Swift5648 Says:

    That blog is up, I’m over there until thefightins opens one.

  23. OutlawPete Says:

    well i guess we’re tied 1-1

  24. Lynniemac Says:

    :-(

  25. Luis A. Rosado Says:

    Who gives a damn about A.J. Burnett stealing Tomas Perez’s celebration? Let’s just beat his ass and move on! In addition, to dlhunter, “Tomas Perez sold me a hot dog this morning,” nice one asshole. That shit’s not funny! Seriously!

  26. stinkbug Says:

    lynnie come to the phillyburb glog

  27. OutlawPete Says:

    @ Luis, in honor of Shane’s at-bat you’re an asshole, No Questions Asked

  28. youngjames Says:

    need a real live blog!! the font is tiny and blue on this one!!

  29. Luis A. Rosado Says:

    thanks Outlaw Pete for calling me an asshole. Nice one, bro.

  30. Luis A. Rosado Says:

    I won’t call you anything. I’m better than that. Thanks for responding.

  31. Luis A. Rosado Says:

    I’m not arrogant, unfortunately.

  32. OutlawPete Says:

    *enjoying Luis talking to himself*

  33. Luis A. Rosado Says:

    I bet you’re twice my age.

  34. Luis A. Rosado Says:

    It’s all in fun, bro.

  35. Luis A. Rosado Says:

    I’m not offended.

  36. Brandon Says:

    hahaha

  37. Luis A. Rosado Says:

    I don’t even know you.

  38. Luis A. Rosado Says:

    40, 50 year olds shouldn’t be arguing with people that could be their son. Seriously!

  39. OutlawPete Says:

    ok im gunna guess that Luis is either one of the guys who runs this site or is the Yanks troll, just judging by responses

  40. dlhunter Says:

    Luis A. Rosado needs a blog of his own. Or pills. Lots of pills.

  41. Lynniemac Says:

    Okay, the philly burbs thing sucks. Only about 1 in 3 of my comments end up posting. I have not sworn or said anything off-color even once.

  42. OutlawPete Says:

    Fact: Pedro would’ve struck out the side if we had a live blog

  43. Luis A. Rosado Says:

    What kind of pills, dlhunter? In addition, I hate Yankees and the Mets. You people don’t know me.

  44. Lynniemac Says:

    If I knew how to do one, I’d so be on it.

  45. stinkbug Says:

    lynnie i agree it sucks. i told him to make all of us panelists but he won’t.

  46. youngjames Says:

    @lynnie…AGREED. Way too much lag time. It’s kind of annoying!

  47. stinkbug Says:

    pete knows how to do it. just put one up and let the first 25 people in as panelists so you wont have to do any work.

  48. Lynniemac Says:

    I totally understand that it has to be moderated because it’s being run by philly burbs, but I kid you not, like 5 or 6 of my comments have been eaten.

  49. Luis A. Rosado Says:

    I’m out, I’m not gonna argue against people I don’t even know. This is silly and I’m a fool for even getting in to it. I blame myself.

  50. dazhuzhu Says:

  58. Matt Says:

    hahaha who the hell is Luis A. Rosado? He scolds people for being mean, talks to himself, then scolds himself for arguing on the internet and then leaves? hahaha wow.

  59. joe Says:

    Poor pedro, phils never score for him

  60. Fightins Newbie Says:

    Thanks for booting me out of the blog pete…did I do something to irritate you?

  61. Phils Phan Says:

    On MLB.com’s live thing, they have a premium service that lists, for each player, the following:

    Loves to Face:
    Hates to Face:

    I wonder what Pete Happy’s are. … “Everything. … And nothing.”

  62. woody Says:

    Is it possible that we let the pitcher hit and have someone DH for Feliz? Im just saying.

  63. Yanks in 6 Says:

    WHO”S YOUR DADDY!!!!!

    WHO”S YOUR DADDY!!!!

    Ready for thousands upon thousands of New Yorkers to take over your little league field this weekend?

  64. dlhunter Says:

    and now the trolls return. did your dick grow back from game 1?

  65. Yanks in 6 Says:

    HIP

    HIP

    JORGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  66. stealth Says:

    lol oh now they come out

  67. Andrea Says:

    Where were you motherfuckers when we embarrassed your asses last night? Hmmm Yank fans? Hmm? Yeah. Bunch of pussies.

  68. stealth Says:

    I know…so quiet after last night…I still have faith in the Phils to come back in this one but thats the difference..I would stick it out till the end and accept a loss and not run and cower. At least we can say we one the first one at their ball park and in such a dominant fashion. Go Phils!!!!!!

  69. woody Says:

    Even IF the phils lose tonight, who has homefield advantage right now?

  70. dlhunter Says:

    I farted on your pillow last night, Yi6.

  71. stealth Says:

    oops meant to say won the first one..my bad

  72. Yanks in 6 Says:

    I might change my prediction to Yanks in 5. The Phillies have 1 good starting pitcher and he won’t pitch like that ever again! Can’t wait until Heartbreak Lidge pitches!!!!!!

  73. woody Says:

    double plays are fun!

  74. stealth Says:

    can you believe this guy?..so cocky still because they might I say might win this one tonight..where were you last night ass wipe? You might win one game and you still say Yanks in 5?…lmfao

  75. Yanks in 6 Says:

    Ready for 2 innings of Rivera?

  76. woody Says:

    Id prefer 2 innings of Franchise Phil, since he was so good last night.

  77. Brandon Says:

    I think i got kicked out because my computer flipped out on that double play

  78. Yanks in 6 Says:

    Nice of the umps to help you out. Your team needs all the help they can get

  79. woody Says:

    nice of your fans to show up tonight

  80. woody Says:

    nice of rivera to walk rollins

  81. true Says:

    wonder if your mayor is still awake

  82. woody Says:

    nice of victorino to get a hit

  83. Yanks in 6 Says:

    Nice of Phillies fans to discover baseball in 2008

  84. stealth Says:

    nice of your fans to show up last night and stay even lol

  85. woody Says:

    nice of the yanks to lay a terd in game one

  86. woody Says:

    nice of you to support a frillies website and not the yanks

  87. Yanks in 6 Says:

    Nice of Utley to hit into a double play!!

  88. woody Says:

    nice of the umps to call chase out when he was safe

  89. Deej Says:

    I dont know about you guys, but I still feel rerally good about this. To be honest, I didnt expect to win this game. I watch this team so much that I notice patterns. Werth falling asleep at 1st base really got the ball rolling and the Yankees rode that momentum the rest of the game. Seeing the Yankees celebrate that double play the way they did (would you see Jimmy, Chase and Ryan doing that?) you can tell that a WHOLE lot of pressure came off their shoulders. Theyre feeling the heat a little right now, and I feel like we can ride that once we get back to home field. We came and took what we wanted, a split. It stings now, but come Saturday, its all good fellas. Dont sweat it too much, were in good shape.

  90. Yanks in 6 Says:

    Feel confident going into game 3 with prissy Cole Hamels and his 6.75 ERA?

    Didn’t think so.

  91. woody Says:

    feel confident with scoring 4 runs in 2 games

  92. The chief Says:

    Feel confident going into game 3 with gagging A-roid and his 6.00 strikeouts?

    Didn’t think so.

  93. stealth Says:

    Yeah Deej…I agree..thats what I was hoping for also..to take one there. I have complete confidence in them and yes CBP will be rockin. Yeah Wanks in 6 you better hope Cole doesnt come around pal…could be like reliving a nightmare with Lee game one..oh by the way..how did that feel last night getting your asses kicked…ha! ha! I mean kicked

  94. Matt Says:

    These Yankee trolls crack me up…Is this what your life consists of? Trolling Phillies websites when your team gets the lead in a game despite being down 1-0 in the series?

    And does Mark Teixeira’s lower lip piss anybody else off? It’s so fucking huge and sticks out so much, and every time I see it, I hear a Lil Wayne lyric in my head…”Don’t you ever fix yo lip unless you bout to suck my dick…”

  95. Yanks in 5 Says:

    THE YANKEES WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    THE YANKEES WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    THE YANKEES WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Sing it, Frank!!

  96. Yanks in 5 Says:

    I thought the Phils were going to crush Burnett. Guees not?

  97. woody Says:

    YI5 incase you didnt notice the phils just split 1-1 in NY. We have home field now.

  98. stealth Says:

    I thought C.C. big head was going to crush the Phills? guess not

  99. The chief Says:

    Enjoy it, it’s the last time you’ll be hearing that song this year outside of your mom’s basement.

  100. Swift5648 Says:

    @Yanks in 5: I thought CC was going to outshine Lee, and A-Rod was going to be Mr. World Series. Not so fast dude… nice to see you trolling around now that the Yanks have a game under their belt, where were you last night?

  101. JB Says:

    Where were these bottom feeders last night?

  102. stealth Says:

    I know and it wasnt like the Yankess really beat the Phils bad tonight either..I mean last night was legit..a genuine asswhooping…get ready for some more at CBP

  103. Brandon Says:

    Yanks in 5

  104. will.H Says:

    yankees fans show up when they win just like they leave game 1 of the world series 45 mins before they lose. no heart, the new york way

  105. Swift5648 Says:

    @will.H: Hit the nail right on the head.

  106. MoyerIsMyHero Says:

    Ha Ha, I love it. Welcome back, Yanks fan. We’ll be enjoying your posts for the next two days until Game 3 is over and NY is down 2-1.

  107. will.H Says:

    even better moyer.. we’ll be here win or lose. yankees fans? call them out and they’ll act like infants

  108. Yanks in 5 Says:

    By this time next Monday night, World Series Title #27 comes back to the Bronx. Where it belongs!!!

  109. woody Says:

    are you sure it wont be world series loss number 15?

  110. Brandon Says:

    Hey troll. http://metropolitician.blogs.com/scribblings_of_the_metrop/_files_troll_2.jpg

    I agree with the formula. I could’ve saved a lot of stress tonight.

  111. Brandon Says:

    Sorry about the double link. Wasn’t sure if the post went through

  112. Wawa Says:

    Lidle really flew out of his seat.

  113. Amanda Says:

    Perez should replace Bruntlett on the roster. Pies are moe valuable than whatever Bruntlett claims to do.
