Stripling vs Brito

 

[yankeesince59]

Schmidt yesterday, and Brito today....sigh.

And don’t forget our new CF today …the immortal IKF.

 

[Rangers94]

Brito will got 3-4 innings top. IKF is being used as a sacrificial lamb by throwing him all over the field to make him useless and make Hicks look better. There’s literally 2 GIANT black holes on this team in Hicks and Donaldson. IKF is a good contact hitting 3B who we REFUSE to play at 3rd but will trot out useless Donaldson every day to swing at pitches a foot and a half off the plate. And instead of bringing up Dominguez we have to suffer with Hicks. This is the only MLB team that will let skilled, MLB players stay in the minors while overpaid vets destroy the team.

Brito, with 5 Ks in a row...this kid has got some nasty stuff...a lot of movement.

 

[mrmel29]

I like this kid too. Meanwhile, judge crushes a line drive jr to left center and Stanton hits a moon shot 485 over the cf black to make it 3-0 yanks

 

[yankeesince59]

I have never seen a ball land where Stanton hit it...wow...3-0 good guys.

 

[mrmel29]

Higi makes it 4-0 and the kid completes 5 innings of shutout ball. Nice job kid!

Yup, a very pleasant surprise so far.

Now is about when Boone's inane pitching/BP management rears its ugly head..."if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

 

[yankeesince59]

Nailed it...Brito with only 76 pitches...and Boone summons Cordero.

 

[Messiah717]

Stanton absolutely tattooed that ball. In the middle of summer that's over 500ft.

 

[yankeesince59]

3 walks and 3 wild pitches gives us 2 more runs...6-0, good guys.

 

[Messiah717]

The Giants are dreadful. Shouldn't of lost yesterday but it happens I guess.

 

[yankeesince59]

Ball game...good guys win.
