Put all kids in the lineup. Let them take Kershaw to the woodshed.

Put all kids in the lineup. Let them take Kershaw to the woodshed.

I'll second that but at the same time hope that Pineda can keep his head on straight and pitch a nice game!

 

[Messiah717]

Lets hope he's still a little rusty. If the best pitcher in baseball is on his game this will be a short ball game.

Ellsbury -CF

Mason Williams was recalled from Triple-A and Judge is done for the Season as per Brian Cashman.

...Rays kicking the shit out of the Jays...and either the O's or Sox are guaranteed of a loss later tonight.

 

[Messiah717]

This would be a big game to win. Get to within one game of the playoffs again while winning another series. Then onto a four game series with the Red Sox.

 

[yankeesince59]

...Dodgers have had trouble all year hitting LHed pitching which in a way could explain CC being so successful last night...when the Bums face RHed pitching though, it's a different story...Pineda better bring his A game today.

...and I'm not sure how well healed Kershaw is...guess we'll find out in an hour or so.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Final score up in Toronto 8-1, come on Yankees make Kershaw sing the St Louis Blues !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Here we are 4th inning, problems start with Pineda, damn lucky he got that DP, could have been real ugly.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Memo to Cashman: you need to make moving Pineda right up at the top of off season priorities!

 

[cagedlion]

Game in delay mode..........raining. Kershaw is lights out. Yankees have no hits. Pineda pitching
better.......out of jams! Has not allowed a run yet. Tight game. Maybe the rain delay will get Yankees some
winning hits.

 

[mrmel29]

come on didi big hit to get here

 

[mrmel29]

Ok, up to you mccann to do something and take the lead here.

 

[mrmel29]

Nice clutch as usual mccann. You can leave for atlanta now

 

[Messiah717]

Terrible AB by Mccann.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Son of a bitch, second inning in a row with two on, no good results! &^*&^%^*%^&%%$%*$^%#^

 

[Lillie]

I'm actually falling asleep watching this Shit.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Needed: a bloop and a blast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[yankeesince59]

...damnit Betances.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Castro and Dellin &^$&$(^&%(^%%^&$%^$#%#$

 

[Lillie]

I had a feeling they were going to lose this one.

 

[yankeesince59]

...another meltdown by Betances.

 

[yankeesince59]

...another very winnable game slipping away.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Starter only goes 4, pen does its job, closer and second baseman fumble fuck the 9th, cause two unearned runs. Add two missed opportunities with two on the bases each time. Real crock of shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[cagedlion]

Betances of late cannot pitch well two consecutive days. It's not concentration as much as it is stamina......
mental and physical.

 

[Lillie]

Yankees sign Billy Butler to a Major League Contract as per John Heyman.
