Benintendi with a line drive rising rocket HR to LF!
2nd as a Yankee, 5th on the year.

 

[Messiah717]

Good start for once.

Good start for once.

Makes me miss and realize how vital Ricky Henderson was to line up, with all those lead off home runs.
Great way to start a game early.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

I went to a game in Anaheim in 1986. Ricky hit a hard liner but died in the grass to RF. If it weren't Henderson hitting/running it was a kind of hit you could almost throw the runner out at first.

The lazy Dog George Hendrick, reach down to glove the ball and bobbled it, he made a second effort with his glove and his foot kicked it. By the time he finally got his hand on the ball Henderson was at third standing up.

I've never in my life seen anyone run that fast!

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Needless to say the Yankees scored 6 Runs in that first inning

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Rizzo with a solo home run to deep right field. Two to nothing

 

[Messiah717]

Rizzo with homer number 30 on the season.

 

[cagedlion]

C ya once, c ya twice. Do they have another in them?

 

[cagedlion]

Yankees pitching leaves a lot to be desired. Main reason why this team will have an early exit in postseason.
Angels 2 Yankees 2 top 3.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

 

[cagedlion]

Yankees score 2 runs on Angels’ 3B error. Yankees 4 Angels 2

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Judge HR number 51

 

[Messiah717]

Judge HR number 51

Just amazing. The countdown to 60 continues.

Fk Ohtani
There's only one American League MVP candidate this year, and he sure as hell does not play for the Halos!!

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Here's All 50 of Judge's prior HR's

I can't remember any HR Hitter ever utilizing the entire ballpark for as many HR's as he's hit.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Rizzo with homer number 30 on the season.

Only 7 Yankee first basemen have ever hit 30 home runs

 

[cagedlion]

I could and will root for Judge because he’s special & for now he’s a Yankee. Yet, there are several in this
lineup who make me sick & I’m so sorry they are Yankees!

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Marinaccio is a work in progress. This kid could turn out to be something special. He blows the ball past hitters, confuses hitters with his offspeed change up, has a back door slider on right-handed batters, and has an incredible 96 mph 4 seam fastball with a ton of movement on it. Off speed changeup nearly beheaded an Angel hitter, followed by another wild pitch that Trevino pulled in.

I like his form, I like his mechanics, I like his delivery, I like his arsenal of different pitches. So feats Don't Fail Me now. Trashman better not fuck with this kids head, by giving him a honorary seat on the Scranton Wilkes Barre Express. Trashman ruins more rookies than he enables!

Out here on Fox sports West ex Royals pitcher Mark Gubicza likes what he sees in Marinaccio too. Mark has been speaking highly of Marinaccio. Mark usually reserves his opinion until a pitcher has proven himself over time.

It's good to hear it's good to see, for a change of pace!

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Johnny Lasagna enters the game. Over the last couple years, just when I think he's putting it all together, he does his best impression of Luis Cesspool!

Lasagna still throwing 99 mph, the kind of kid Trashman will eventually trade, then Lasagna will put it all together, and become a stud with another team.
I hope not, but...

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Lasagna strikes out the side in the eighth, gets Fletcher to swing at a ball 2 feet off the plate outside and low!
I wish Lasagna would figure out whether he's Dr Jekyll or Mr Hyde, and stay the course.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Cabrera finally shows his Human after all, misjudges a fly ball in right field, Ohtani scores.
Fly ball to Judge games over.
Yanx 7
Aholes 4

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Judge with three hits tonight, brings his total of RBIs to 112, with 51 home runs.

It's been a long time since I've seen any power hitter capable of turning on an inside fastball as easily as Judge does. It's not just about turning on the inside fastball, he's hitting it (the inside fastball) to all fields.
He's more than proven himself year after year after year, and lived up to his hype from years ago. Now pay the man!
And -
Go ahead and hand him the MVP now.

Over and out
