NY Yankees

[2forheels]

And that's why I would have pitched Rodon. 2 strikes and Cole grooves a fastball right down the middle.

Every time they've ever shown Boone he's either blowing bubbles or packing his mouth with seeds.

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

And 1-0 feels like the ballgame.

 

[Heels68]

Yankees firing blanks again?

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

Yankees firing blanks again?

Rasmussen simply owns them. On like a historical level at this point. Forget a run…I’d just like a hit. It’s comical how much this dude dominates us.

 

[2forheels]

These chumps are getting ready to be no hit in a playoff game by a team with no history. Smh

Just wish we had a collection of professional hitters…guys who grind out ABs in a game like this and who change an approach to find a hit or two. Guys like Bernie and Jeter and Paulie and a couple others.

As I’m typing…Jazz rolls over a first pitch ball to lead off the 8th.

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

No baseball IQ at all. Inexplicable by Wells there. Never make first or third out at third. And try to remember that you are a catcher.

 

[2forheels]

How ******* stupid was that? Yankees make more base running blunders than a little league team.

 

[lakelawyerheel]

Well, the good news is the no-hitter is done and Wells absolutely lasered that ball

The bad news…I just don’t understand

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

Well, Monday is a must-win now. Cam can’t pitch any better than Rasmussen did tonight. And if we don’t score any runs, I promise you we won’t win.

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

You have to give Stanton a righty-righty chance here. McMahon has no chance of getting a hit.

Stanton honestly didnt look that bad. Put two good swings on heaters, laid off junk out of the zone, etc

Completely agree. He spit on two change-ups. And just missed the first fastball.

 

[lakelawyerheel]

Time to quote the immortal Harry Doyle:

“One hit? One GD hit?”

Broadcast partner: “you can’t say GD on the air”

Harry: “oh, who gives a ****. Nobody is listening anyway”

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

They had their ace on the mound and beat us 1-0. Need Cam to go get Game 2 and then we can show them how valuable it is to have four legit starters as Fried and Rodon dominate in NYC.

 

[2forheels]

I don't like Stanton at all. Period. McMahon can at least put the ball in play. Plus we had other options to pinch hit. Boone looking for a genie in bottle.

 

[2forheels]

We now have to win 3 of 4 to advance. I don't see it happening.

 

[2forheels]

This is what has killed us in the post season for the past umpteenth years. We rely on home runs to win. You have to play some small ball at some point to win.

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

We now have to win 3 of 4 to advance. I don't see it happening.

We just did it last week. Very doable. Let’s get to a Schlittler in Game 5 scenario. Or, hell, we could just let Cam, Fried and Rodon shut these punks down three straight.

Need to do it every game. Batters were swinging from their heels the last 3 innings.

I don't want to be in the Trop for game 5. Let's bust out the brooms for a 3 game sweep.

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

Simply a must-win tonight.

 

[2forheels]

We lose tonight and it's over.

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

Another RHP, do I assume lineup will stay the same. It worth noting that Rosario has a much higher average and SLG than McMahon does against RHP.

True, but Rosario may be the worst defensive infielder in the majors as well

 

[2forheels]

Ill be so glad when Jazz is gone. What a dumbass. He just has no damn baseball IQ. Volpe should be the 2B.

 

[2forheels]

What a great start. Cam doesn't have it. 3 errors already in the 1st inning.

 

[2forheels]

Damn Jazz! Get him out of the ******* game. He talks all that **** and can't handle pressure.

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

Damn Jazz! Get him out of the ******* game. He talks all that **** and can't handle pressure.

I’m so ready for him to be out of the Bronx completely.

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

What a great start. Cam doesn't have it. 3 errors already in the 1st inning.

Dude…they got ONE oppo hard ground ball single. Cam has got plenty. We hit the ball much harder than they did in the first. But we also decide to play like an 8U rec team in the field.

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

After Spencer’s ball…I’m about to just throw my hands up. We are cursed.

Are you watching a different game than me? They are making contact on damn near every pitch by Cam. That's very un Cam like. Makes me wonder if he's tipping pitches. But their approach has always been to just put the bat on the ball. Defense is not helping him at all either.

 

[2forheels]

Cam already at 41 pitches in 2 innings. He looks very uncomfortable.

We had Randal Grichuk early in the season, but designated his for assignment.

He then went on to bat .287 for the White Sox this year, an average that would've been the best on the Yankees.

 

[2forheels]

And the Yankees seldom give him much run support.

 

[2forheels]

Something is just amiss. Cam only has 3 swing and misses on 52 pitches. They are just punching the ball. Very smart. Kevin Cash is a good manager. We NEED SOME HITS. Cam will not be around but a few more innings. Come on Yankees!!!

 

[2forheels]

That home run helped.

 

[2forheels]

After Spencer’s ball…I’m about to just throw my hands up. We are cursed.

I think we ARE cursed. We can't get a break. If Bellinger pulls that ball just a hair we're up 5-1.

 

[2forheels]

Another 2 freaking errors. This is how you win games. You put the ball in play. We live for home runs and only have 1 real home run hitter. Jones should have caught that first ball and Grisham jogged after the next ball. We've given them this game but their philosophy is to just punch the ball in play. That's how they won 100 games. Pitching. Hitting. Defense. We have pitching but nothing else.

 

[2forheels]

They hit 2 balls. One to 2B and one to SS and scored 2 runs. Inning should have been over.

 

[2forheels]

See? Every time Boone changes pitchers this happens.
