We need to digress from sports action for just a second. We just saw the trailer for the December release I Am Legend, and it - along with American Gangster - is making us want to shove all these summer movies down the shitter. We can't wait for the fall/winter: NFL Sundays, decent movies, Christmas bonuses... but anyway -
Tonight
Pirates at Yankees (7:05 P.M. ET, MLB.TV)
- Tom Gorzelanny, he of the textbook left-handed control, faces A-Rod and a high-powered Yankee lineup hellbent on destroying our fantasy baseball team.
Indians at Reds (7:10 P.M. ET, MLB.TV)
- Homer Bailey, meet major league baseball. Your first opponent: Grady Sizemore. Uh-oh.
A's at Giants (10:10 P.M. ET, MLB.TV)
- This Battle of the Bay features two pitchers - Chad Gaudin and Tim Lincecum - who will come back to earth soon. Here's hoping it's tonight. We love us some self-destruction.
Saturday
Frankfurt Galaxy at Hamburg Sea Devils (12 P.M. ET, NFLN)
- One of these teams could secure a World Bowl berth. Whatever that means.
Pirates at Yankees (1:05 P.M. ET, MLB.TV)
- Some guy named Clemens is pitching. His groin may or may not fall off.
Mets at Tigers (3:55 P.M. ET, FOX)
- It's the World Series that could've been.
Sunday
Mariners at Padres (4:05 P.M. ET, MLB.TV)
- King Felix vs. Chris Young in cavernous Petco. The home runs will be a-flyin'.
Cubs at Braves (8:05 P.M. ET, ESPN)
- Perhaps ESPN will refrain from interrupting this for its NBA Finals pregame coverage.
Cavs at Spurs, Game 2 (9 P.M. ET, ABC)
- Those NBA scheduling geniuses have the legend of then-and-now (Duncan) vs. the legend of the future (LeBron) going nuts to nuts with the final episode of The Sopranos. We could DVR Tony and Co. and wait until after the game to watch it, but...fuck that, right? This game's only worth watching if it's tight in the second half anyway, and we'll need something brainless to watch while we recover from the emotional beheading that comes with one of the top five television shows of all time exiting the landscape.
