More aggravation coming I’m sure from our Yankees but I expect the Yankees to prevails and if they don’t I expect both Cashman and Boone to be gone! And for gods sake can we pretend to run the bases like professional athletes and not little leaguers

Last night was a demoralizing gut punch to the Yanx as well as their fans...and may be a harbinger of things to come. And if they don't somehow find a way to win tonight, they will probably lose the series.

I still maintain that they "are not built for the post season". They simply found a little hot streak. (Judge and Stanton) But poor situational hitting. and base running, errors, as well as sketchy pitching is handicapping them.

Ian Hamilton hurt and off the roster and replaced by the immortal mark leiter jr. Let’s hope leiters services aren’t needed

 

[mrmel29]

Soto goes deeeeeeep and it’s 2-0 yanks

 

[yankeesince59]

Soto puts good guys up 2-0 with a 2 run HR.

 

[yankeesince59]

Jazz sure has been swinging at some terrible pitches recently...he looks lost at the plate.

Yup, the clean up spot is perfect for him.

 

[yankeesince59]

Gil has thrown 6 pitches, and all were down the middle.

 

[Messiah717]

Gil will give it right back.

 

[Messiah717]

I’ll take getting out of that 2-1. I think Gil was too amped up. He’s throwing very hard but have to locate.

 

[Messiah717]

Austin Wells gets the run back with a much needed homer.

 

[mrmel29]

Long bomb by wells and its 3-1

 

[yankeesince59]

Damnit Volpe, swing the f'n bat !....Wells puts Yanx back up by 2 runs.

I was pissed but then Wells homered. Like what the hell are you looking at?

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Will Soto remain a Yankee? Will Steinbrenner cough up the cash to sign him?

[Stepupstepan]

Is Williams record misleading? He is not that good but not horrible

 

[Mattingly23NY]

NY 3
Cleveland 1

 

[Messiah717]

Dumb walk

 

[yankeesince59]

Gil, 38 pitches after 2 innings.

 

[yankeesince59]

Nice double clutch, Wells...WTF was that?...you cost your team a run.

 

[Messiah717]

Will be in the pen early.

 

[yankeesince59]

Gil, 70 pitches after 3 innings....I'd be surprised if he goes back out there for the 4th inning.

 

[Messiah717]

Jazz is absolutely useless right now.

 

[yankeesince59]

Chisholm had NO chance during that AB.

 

[Messiah717]

Stanton now takes one right down the middle.

 

[Messiah717]

Volpe watching good pitches leads to flying out on the pitcher’s pitch.

 

[Stepupstepan]

I don't know how you guys watch this team in the regular season. So frustrating watching them trying to score runs.

Funny thing is that I read something this morning that said in 2020 all teams had a team batting average of over .250. This year it’s down to five teams. It’s like all the threes in basketball. Everyone swinging for homers.
