Brito vs Chirinos

 

[yankeesince59]

Anything less than taking at least 2 of 3 from TB, is a failure.

 

[mrmel29]

Not happening 59. This rays team is so fundamentally sound it’s ridiculous and with a 200 million dollar payroll less than this disjointed pathetic team that the pathetic cashman put together. I’d be happy if we can steal 1 this weekend

 

[mrmel29]

And bader ties it up at 4 with a 3 run blast

 

[Messiah717]

5-4 Rays after Bauer butchers a fly ball out into an RBI double.

 

[mrmel29]

Terrible at bay by bader with 2nd and 3rd and 1 out

 

[Messiah717]

Second and third with one out and the Yankees fail. Bader with an infield pop up and IKF strikes out pinch hitting for Bauer.

 

[yankeesince59]

Pinch hitting IKF for Bauer?...seriously?

WTF Boone?

 

[mrmel29]

And of course the under .200 immortal IKF pinch hits and strokes out on ball 4 swinging at a pitch a foot in the dort

 

[Messiah717]

Boone and Cashman should've both been shown the door instead if receiving new contracts.

 

[mrmel29]

Cabrera can take his .180 ave and go back to triple as kid just can’t hit

 

[yankeesince59]

Well, at least we showed up.

 

[yankeesince59]

And of course the under .200 immortal IKF pinch hits and strokes out on ball 4 swinging at a pitch a foot in the dort

lol...actually, it was ball 5 ...he swung at ball 4 earlier on a pitch that was a foot above the zone.

 

[Messiah717]

There you go. Now ten games behind Tampa.

 

[yankeesince59]

Cabrera can take his .180 ave and go back to triple as kid just can’t hit

I think he got suckered by the "short porch" in RF like so many others have.

 

[Messiah717]

Boone is a disaster but Cashman has failed miserably.

 

[mrmel29]

Outside of volpe the Yankees young players all stink

 

[yankeesince59]

Still waiting on "The Martian".

Yankees 4-5 Rays (May 5, 2023) Box Score - ESPN We lost to the First-place team. The O's are on fire with an Atlanta Braves win and Boone coaches like it's last year.
