Taillon forst 3 batters: HBP, single and 3 run homer. Taillon sucking ass

 

[yankeesince59]

Taillon forst 3 batters: HBP, single and 3 run homer. Taillon sucking ass

That's an understatement.

 

[mrmel29]

However, Stanton 3 run blast tied it at 3 all in the first

 

[mrmel29]

Great catch by Gallo ends the Houston 2nd!

 

[mrmel29]

Taillon gives up another 3 run homer in the third making it 6-3 Astros. Get the hook Boone

 

[yankeesince59]

Jesus tap dancing christ...6-3, bad guys.

 

[yankeesince59]

Could just be Taillon's pitching but it sure seems like the Stro's know what pitch is coming.

 

[Messiah717]

Tired of the Astros and Altuve owning this team.

 

[yankeesince59]

Tired of the Astros and Altuve owning this team.

In hindsight, since he's been on all 4 times tonight, I wish all 4 of them had been a HBP.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

16 pitch at bat by Rizzo.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Rizzo came close, bottom of the 8th, robbed by RF'r Tucker. Waiting for the replay to see if that was going to clear the RF wall?

Nope Rizzo's hit was not going to clear the wall, after review replay.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Could just be Taillon's pitching but it sure seems like the Stro's know what pitch is coming.

Deja Vu. I will never Trust the Ass-tros again.
If Lillie were here she would be calling them cheaters!

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Bottom of the 9th
Due up-

Stanton
Torres
Hicks

I bet all three swing for the fences, instead of getting base hits and starting a rally, or playing small ball which Aaron Boone really doesn't know how to play at all.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Ass-tros RP Pressly walks Stanton and GT, and he's playing "small ball" For the Yankees

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Hicks B'Avg = .130 AB with RISP

Hicks with a 3 run BOMB

 

[Messiah717]

Hicks with the unbelievable clutch hit.

 

[mrmel29]

You guys just saw a baseball miracle. Hicks bat met a ball and result is game tying 3 run hr in bottom of the 9th.

 

[mrmel29]

Wake up ikf. If you run off the field like that even though you were safe you sell the call the wrong way

 

[Messiah717]

Judge with a shot to win it.

 

[Messiah717]

And with the green light 3-0 Judge wins it.

 

[mrmel29]

Judge with the cutch game winner and says see you in arbitration tmo cashman u idiot!!

 

[Mattingly23NY]

What's Classic Finish 3 Run Walk Off by Judge!
Enough to ice the arbitration cake vs Trashman. 21 Million or 17 Million, more than likely 35 Million in 2023.
Will #99 remain true to his pinstripes after 2022?

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Unfortunately the Arbitration Judge can't use this years stats, but Judge was 4th in MVP Ballots last year.

 

[Messiah717]

The pitching was due for some bad starts. Great to see the offense bail them out.
