On paper the Braves have the pitching advantage but Morton will be facing a much improved Yankee Team.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Oakland loses again to Seattle 5-1.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

I hope Velazquez hits 1.000 and doesn't make an error, from now until GT returns.
In other words: call me Wally-Pipp Torres!

Better have a short leash on this Idiot tonight.

Better have a short leash on this Idiot tonight.

A short leash, with a bark, heel and sit on command!

(I always wanted to use that emoji...a First!)

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Here we go with bad ball and strike calling by the HP Ump.
Freeman was given a base on balls when the K-zone clearly showed strike 3 was called Ball 4.

And Heaney pitching like the tomato can he is! He better be the odd man out when kluber returns. Cole, taillon, kluber, Montgomery and Gil should be the rottie. And Cortes moves to the bullpen giving us another multi inning reliever

I always considered myself a conservative MLB fan, in other words don't screw with the game don't change it leave it alone.

However, I cannot wait for the automated K-zone, to replace these dildo riding umpires.
Blind monkeys could do better.

 

[mrmel29]

Stanton goes deep. 2-1 braves

 

[Lillie]

Stanton goes Yard 2-1 Yankees.

Stanton's blast traveled 419 ft at 112 mph

Heaney...ugh.

[mrmel29]

Gardner about as useful as wet toilet paper

 

[mrmel29]

DJ blasts 2 run hr and 4-2 yanks

 

[Lillie]

DJ goes Yard 4-2 Yankees.

DJ is heating up.

 

[mrmel29]

Didn’t realize braves fans still do the dumb tomahawk chant

 

[mrmel29]

Yanks got a break on that one. Freeman was safe

 

[mrmel29]

Odor goes deeeep and it’s 5-3 yanks

 

[yankeesince59]

Chapman warming up.

 

[mrmel29]

Take him out Boone. Don’t let him blow another one
