Torres is just a clown but what the hell is IKF doing there?

 

[yankeesince59]

This HP Ump is making horrible balls and strike calls by both teams...that was clearly strike 3 on Donaldson...and WTF is Torres doing stealing 3rd with 2 out?

 

[yankeesince59]

Torres is just a clown but what the hell is IKF doing there?

I'm guessing because the shift was on, and Torres was the cutoff man?...I dunno.


Edit; After looking at it again, yeah, if IKF had been anywhere near 2B, they would have had the runner trying to get back to 2B easily.

 

[yankeesince59]

HP Ump just missed another call...first pitch from Schmidt was a strike.

 

[yankeesince59]

Another blown call by the HP Ump...first pitch to Marte was CLEARLY a strike.

 

[yankeesince59]

Not a fan of a sac bunt there, but the Yanx got a break with a misplay by Alonzo.

 

[yankeesince59]

For the 3rd game in a row, Beni comes through again...3-2, good guys.

 

[cagedlion]

Benintendi gives Yankees 3-2 lead off Rodriguez.

These 2 teams get together and strange things go on………

 

[yankeesince59]

And ex-Yank Ottavino, who once said that he would have struck out Babe Ruth every time, comes in out of the pen.

 

[mrmel29]

Bad at bat by lemehieu

 

[yankeesince59]

Judge smokes a single to LF...4-2, good guys.

 

[yankeesince59]

Bad at bat by lemehieu

He just doesn't look right...gotta believe his toe problem is bothering him more than he's letting on.

 

[cagedlion]

Bad move by Judge, stealing base. Takes bat out of Rizzo’s hands.
Rather have Rizzo at bat instead of Torres.

 

[yankeesince59]

Torres, unless you want me standing on your nuts for the rest of the year, you better do something here.

Edit; Well, evidently Torres has a YS59 foot fetish.

 

[mrmel29]

Big hit for judge. Come on gleyber

 

[yankeesince59]

Bad move by Judge, stealing base. Takes bat out of Rizzo’s hands.

Yeah, that was a head scratcher...with 2 out, it's not like he was trying to stay away from a DP.

 

[mrmel29]

And gleyber disappoints once again

 

[yankeesince59]

Walking the leadoff batter and bringing the tying run to the plate....Ugh.

 

[yankeesince59]

First 2 runners on...here we go.

 

[yankeesince59]

Luckily, Voglebach is slow as molasses in the Winter time, and the Yanx turn 2 !

 

[mrmel29]

Please let Schmidt pitch the 9th and leave peralta in the bullpen

 

[yankeesince59]

Donaldson is a shell of his former self.

 

[yankeesince59]

Oh shit, here comes Peralta.

 

[mrmel29]

Damn it kid. Now we have to sweat our balls off with peralta.

 

[Messiah717]

Schmidt loads the bases after two quick outs.

 

[yankeesince59]

Schmidt loads the bases after two quick outs.

Out of gas.

 

[yankeesince59]

Never any doubt...Yanx win again !

***This team is on a mission.***

 

[Messiah717]

 

[mrmel29]

2 good wins over the Mets and now take a 3 game streak onto Oakland and California. I’m thinking they should take 5 or 6 out of 7 there
