Jimmy Rollins is either trying to get a rise out of the New York Yankees and their fans, or he's just exercising his psychic powers.
"Of course we’re going to win," he said on The Jay Leno Show Monday night. "If we’re nice we’ll let it go six, but I’m thinking five. Close it out at home."
Well, that was nice to give the Yanks a game. Fast-forward to the 30:00 mark to avoid a ridiculous 80s Leno photo montage and any more Dr. Phil than one human being should ever have to endure.
Game 1 of Cheesesteak vs. Cheesecake airs Wednesday night at 7:57pm ET on FOX. Enjoy your Buck/McCarver dosage... or just drink a lot.
