Kremer vs Schmidt

Win and clinch the American League East

 

[yankeesince59]

1-0, bad guys...Schmidt was a little unlucky that inning, good location on both base hit pitches.

 

[yankeesince59]

I'll be so glad when Stanton's contract is up...horrible acquisition by Cashman...Jeter is probably still laughing about that trade.

 

[yankeesince59]

2-0, bad guys...Schmidt did it to himself this time...a 2 out wild pitch allows the runner on 1B to advance to 2B...followed by a clean RBI single.

 

[Messiah717]

Judge #56 makes it 2-1.

 

[yankeesince59]

Judge #56 makes it 2-1.

He smoked that 3-2 pitch...obviously a location mistake by the pitcher.

 

[yankeesince59]

Vertigo is another bad acquisition by Cashman that I'll be glad when he's gone.

And of course the rally killing Verdugo hits into dp. The Martian needs to play. Much better hitter and you can put Verdugo in for late game defense if you have to

 

[yankeesince59]

Wind blowing in from LF took a 2 run HR away from Torres.

That’s how I’d play it. Verdugo has been brutal at the plate for months.

The difference between July and September. In fairness the Orioles had one that Soto caught that should’ve been out.

 

[Messiah717]

Santander hits one off the foul poll in right to make it 3-1.

 

[yankeesince59]

Foul polle HR...3-1, bad guys.

 

[yankeesince59]

Santander hits one off the foul poll in right to make it 3-1.

Seems like that guy kills us every time we play them.

 

[yankeesince59]

Boone waits one batter too late to bring in the LHer.

 

[yankeesince59]

Soto has been off lately.

 

[yankeesince59]

Damnit Stanton...that pitch was nearly a foot and a half off the plate.

 

[yankeesince59]

What a BP...4-1, bad guys.

 

[Messiah717]

Urias homer makes it 4-1. Tonight doesn’t look like the night. Dead offense and sluggish off the west coast trip.

 

[yankeesince59]

Leiter...another Cashman gem.

 

[yankeesince59]

Urias homer makes it 4-1. Tonight doesn’t look like the night. Dead offense and sluggish off the west coast trip.

Dead offense?...c'mon Mess...they've got 3 hits tonight...sheesh.

 

[Messiah717]

Dead offense?...c'mon Mess...they've got 3 hits tonight...sheesh.

Even though they played well for a stretch this is what will once again ultimately kill them in the playoffs. Just too many nights of this.

 

[yankeesince59]

Why the F' is Boone letting Vertigo bat vs a LHer with a runner on 2B?

 

[yankeesince59]

Even though they played well for a stretch this is what will once again ultimately kill them in the playoffs. Just too many nights of this.

Yup, it seldom fails in the PS...the teams you face in the PS typically have better pitching, which has been kryptonite to the Yanx....they're simply not built for the PS.

 

[Messiah717]

Torres with a bad break double makes it 4-2. Would’ve been 4-3 if it didn’t bounce in the stands. Soto with a huge chance here.

 

[yankeesince59]

Torres makes it 4-2...runners still on 2B and 3B...time for Soto to come through for a change.

 

[yankeesince59]

Goddamnit, Torres !...ran the Yanx right out of a rally with Judge coming up...the O's will likely intentionally to lead off the next inning.

 

[Messiah717]

Torres with just horrific base running.

 

[mrmel29]

Clutch hit by Soto to make it 4-3 but then the brain dead mentally challenged no baseball iq Torres gets himself out on the bases with judge up

 

[Messiah717]

And of course the bullpen destroys any momentum.
