Dave Portnoy was not a fan of the Yankees’ champagne-fueled wild card celebration: ‘Poverty franchise’

Consider Dave Portnoy unimpressed.

As the Yankees celebrated their wild-card series win over the Red Sox with a boozy clubhouse party Thursday night, the Barstool Sports bigwig and noted Boston sports fan wasn’t holding back his feelings.

“Yankees celebrating wild card with champagne,” he wrote on X. “Poverty franchise.”

There was plenty of party to around in the Bronx, where rookie Cam Schlittler dazzled in his first postseason start, throwing eight innings of five-hit ball, finishing with 12 strikeouts and no walks in the 4-0 win.

Schlittler, 24 and a Walpole, Mass. native, had the entirety of Yankee Stadium — all 48,833 of the sold-out venue — behind him as the Bombers became the third team (including 2020) to win a wild-card series after losing Game 1.

Having the entire series played in the Bronx was another point of contention for Portnoy.

“Also not making excuses but the 3 games at one field in the wild card is such Jv little league bulls—t it’s not even funny,” the “Fox Big Noon Kickoff” analyst posted to X.

The Yankees won’t get to enjoy that advantage going forward.

They begin their best-of-five series with the Blue Jays north of the border in Toronto for two games at the Rogers Centre.

Portnoy’s only interest in the series now is getting eyes on Barstool’s livestream of the event after he brought in Red Sox podcaster Hogdale to rival his company’s Yankees fans.

“Gonna see who I can dig up from Toronto to make people care about our Yankee fans in the office for the next round,” he wrote.
