Game Thread Yankees vs. A's Thursday 8/22/19, 9:37 pm

[Mattingly23NY]

GT home run to CF. Approximately 399 ft.
A sure out in Yankee Stadium, but a HR in Oak Alameda...

 

[Mattingly23NY]

note to cesspool- the dirt is not part of the strike zone and neither is the backstop screen

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Two out in the top of the ninth and GT hits a second solo home run of the night. Good going kid.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

GT doing his best to win the game single-handedly unfortunately his teammates did not pick him up

 

[Mattingly23NY]

The biggest screw-up of the game had to be sancheeto over running the base in the second inning.

Looks like GT was the only Yankee who came to play this evening. 15.5 million will come off of the books at seasons end when Biggie & Gardner depart. Another 12 million could be saved if they let Gregorius walk.

add Stanton and another 26 Million (or 260 Mil for 9 Yrs).

then talk Trout into wearing Pinstripes....

Hell the way he plays, he can Pitch too.
He'd be the only Pitcher in the AL who bats in the DH spot...
Not even Nippon Shoes does as much.

Impertinent question of the day.
Who was Philip Humber???

Was a number one pick (overall maybe?) by the mets?

Yep, and more importantly one of few to throw a Perfect Game, for the White Sox, in his short career...
