I wonder if Gian-K-arlo Stanton will K more than last year’s total? Please, unload this guy to the Dodgers!
Tanaka pitching into the 4th inning. And there is the obligatory HR by Realmuto. No surprise here! Does Tanaka have a ground ball in his repertoire?
Boner, on impulse, yanks Tanaka with 2 outs in the 4th. Calls in Chad Green.......whoopsie-do.....he gives up a go ahead HR to Kingery with a man on base. Yankees 2 Phillies 3.
Just tuned in, Boner up to his usual tricks again. Gonna be a long disappointing season with that dumbass running the Yankee Field Rodeo.
Ottavino shitting the bed in the 5th...bases loaded one out. Phillies about to break this game wide open.
Note to Ottavino, still think you could strike out the Babe? Kiss my 64 years of Yankee Fandom ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yankee pitchers masquerading as Houdini. Tanaka in the 2nd inning loaded the bases with no one out. He got out of that jam unscathed. Ottavino loaded bases in 5th. He gave up one run, but escaped further damage if not for a runner being thrown out at the plate. Yankees losing 4-2.
Stanton gets Yankees closer with a solo HR. Yankees 3 Phillies 4 This is Yankees first hit since the 2nd inning.
Yankees pick up a lead but once again Boner bats Burns for Gardner (fail), Judge makes the final inning out. A nice double or single would have kept the train moving.
Checking the individual stats on players from both teams I see a lot of late twenties early thirties "rookies" and ST Invitees that probably have no chance of going north when the season starts.
Game tied at 5 going to bottom 9. Boner left Diehl out there to hang dry! Both teams have players who have no chance to go north with their parent club.
