Game Thread Yankees vs. Tigers Saturday 9/1/18, 4:05 pm

[Lillie]

Please don't embarrass yourselves get a Hit please.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

When playing non-contenders this team sinks below the level of the team it plays.

 

[Lillie]

Cone talking about picking his nose he must be Drunk.

 

[cagedlion]

^^^^^this is what happens when the team sucks on the field!

 

[cagedlion]

God. I hate football. But if this shit continues, I’m going to turn on any football game!

 

[cagedlion]

First hit...it’s Gleyber Day. Yankees up 2-1!

 

[Lillie]

It's Gleyber Day.

 

[cagedlion]

Wow. They don’t make ballplayers the way they used to! Tigers take Norris out of the game...Percautionary
measure from previous groin injury......the reason.

 

[cagedlion]

Hey Gardner, August is over. It’s September. Let’s go.

 

[Lillie]

Go ahead Hit McCutchen losers.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Great job by GT, Stanton, not so much.

 

[cagedlion]

The guy’s been wild by walking two & hitting Cutch. So, what does Stanton do? Swings at first pitch and pops up. Unreal.

I wonder how long they'll be making excuses for Sanchez and his failures at the plate. Stanton, has been a lost soul since the Miami series.

 

[Lillie]

Take him out.

 

[cagedlion]

That lucky horseshoe sure helped Tanaka!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Note to Tanaka: for rebounding from the 1st, keeping your team in the game, and pitching out of that 7th inning jam I dub you the Hip Nip. Enjoy that post game beef fried rice and Sapporo Beer.!

Slim lead, pen is in, Yankee Fans are nervous.

 

[cagedlion]

Holding my breath when Holder is on the mound. Finally, a ground ball double play! Rare.
And it’s about f’king time.

 

[cagedlion]

Shut my mouth. He got the side out. Also, rare!

 

[cagedlion]

Two hits. Nothing to call home about! Can’t believe it gets them a “W”.

 

[cagedlion]

Betances warming up for the nineth inning. Yes. I will be very nervous.

 

[Lillie]

It's over.

 

[cagedlion]

I give Tanaka credit. He pitched 7 strong innings. This team needed this performance
by him. If only consistency rules his game.

 

[mrmel29]

Hey. Wasn’t pretty but a win is a win and we move on. Good to see both Sanchez Bach and McCutchen here and in the lineup as long who immediately gets lengthened. Didi will be next in a week or so and then we hold our breath on judge to see if he can make it back this season. Pitching both starters and bullpen continues to make yankee fans nervous

 

[mrmel29]

No mention of any repercussions from the league for Boone so maybe they thought the hp ump was as bad as the rest of us did

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Mind-boggling and disturbing for several reasons....

Yankees unsure when Chapman may return...

Had Hicks of played LF, with his 105 mph arm; would the sole run of scored.
Gardner's arm is and always has been a limp noodle rubber arm. That was one of the weakest OF throws I've ever seen...Courtesy of tutor Johnny Damon...
