Tanaka vs. Snell

Lineups to follow...

 

[Yankeefan5545]

It's how the Yankees won last night that was special. Lots of small ball, a smidgen of fortune, capped by a clutch hit. I might even give Boner credit calling back Gardner and pinch hitting Maybin. Though he (Maybin) hit to a fielders choice, he atoned by stealing to second. A Tanaka Snell rematch today so we'll hope Tanaka can equal or better his previous performance. I also hope that the offense can get going earlier in the game. Don't know what last nights game attendance was but from the highlights the crowd looked a bit thin. Get out there and kick butt today Yankees.

 

[Lillie]

LeMahieu -2B
Voit -1B
Hicks -CF
Sanchez -DH
Torres -SS
Urshela -3B
Maybin -RF
Romine -C
Gardner -LF

Decent recovery by Tanaka

41,281 but that's not turnstile clicks it is tickets sold

Damn Double Play.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Hicks misses a golden opportunity to re-earn his pinstripes. Sanchez striking out no surprise there. ESPN Sidecar notes say Grgoriuis may be back in June, Stanton starts Tampa Rehab Monday. He (Stanton) can stay gone as far as I'm concerned.

Looks like Urshela was Safe these Umpires Suck.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Sancheeto with 26 hits on the year. BUT 29 Strikeouts rolling eyes.

Gimme Munson or Posada anyday.

Sancheeto is channeling Butch Wynegar.

Wonder if Pagliarulo would consider catching at age 59...

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Imagine where the Yankees would be without LeMahieu and Urshela?

 

[Mattingly23NY]

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Tanaka pitching a quality game, the boys have to start hitting the baseball, score some runs.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Tank uses his foot to redirect the groundball out to Voit, as if he were a Pool player, or used his foot like a Hockey stick.
Tank must be watching the Stanley Cup Playoffs on his off-days...

 

[Lillie]

Looks like Tanaka is hurt now the Ball Hit off his Ankle.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Hicks: )^)^&*^)(*&_&^&%^&%)__&*_&_-

Gas Can Kahnle comes in and promptly gives up a Home Run 1-1.

[Mattingly23NY]

Voit is no longer using Andujar's bats.
He should of bought all of Miggys bats b4 he checked out.

Noticed the old original Batman logo at the brand label. I gotta figure out which bat company makes his bats. Bat company lol, seriously tho'...
