Montgomery vs Nova

Nova Ks the side and has not given up a walk this year.

Montgomery loads bases, gets out with only 1 run. Had some pretty bad control in the 1st..
I've hated the umps the whole series  
adamg : 4/23/2017 2:06 pm : link
The strike zone hasn't been my favorite.
And Ellsbury is a garbage fielder  
adamg : 4/23/2017 2:08 pm : link
No arm, an inconsistent glove, fucking eh.

Thanks god he's been hitting better, but I so wish we could dump him. He costs us a lot in the field.

Yeah, seems Nova is getting high strikes and Montgomery isn't.

And yet he doesn't seem at all rattled. The kid's got an impressive makeup.
Giving up some hits, but pitching out of trouble OK  
mfsd : 4/23/2017 2:29 pm : link
Down 2-0, could be worse. Time for the Yanks to start hitting Nova
Montgomery is really impressive  
adamg : 4/23/2017 2:41 pm : link
Reminds me a lot of Pettitte with his stuff.

And he's got that starter mentality... marathoner.
Is that the second inning ending DP?  
adamg : 4/23/2017 3:01 pm : link
Good timing, 80 pitches through 5.
Gardy needs some time off  
Neckbone1333 : 4/23/2017 3:08 pm : link
He is getting hard to watch at the plate. Guy takes every first pitch, and falls behind and then it's trouble. I love his hustle and glove, but its getting semi-irritating.

It seems like Gardy is an 0-2 hole every at bat.

Bird needs to get going  
bubba0825 : 4/23/2017 3:22 pm : link
If he didn't have such a good spring I'd assume he's still hurt.
Ray Searage is an incredible pitching coach  
Jints in Carolina : 4/23/2017 3:25 pm : link
Nova has been a stud since getting traded.
Mitchell crapping the bed in  
xman : 4/23/2017 3:32 pm : link
relief. Loads bases with no out

Agreed. He has worked wonders with many talented arms in the last few years. Mitchell has to be able to locate his off-speed stuff better.
Mitchell

getting squeezed with cutch.
great job by Mitchell  
Jints in Carolina : 4/23/2017 3:40 pm : link
getting out of trouble.
Very impressive performance by Mitchell to get out of that inning.

All of a sudden
nice single on 0-2 for Judge

Harrison boots a game-ending double play  
dpinzow : 4/23/2017 4:12 pm : link
the bases are loaded w/1 out
HUGE error on Harrison!

Nice AB, Hicks.  
bceagle05 : 4/23/2017 4:13 pm : link
Kozma, save the day!
Hicks strikes out on 3 pitches  
dpinzow : 4/23/2017 4:13 pm : link
and they can't replace Kozma; nobody left on the bench unless they want to send a pitcher up
Great AB Hicks

I would be thrilled with a walk here

And they lose ..hicks K's..cozma grounds out  
micky : 4/23/2017 4:15 pm : link
1 game out of 3 in pitt.
That'll do it  
dpinzow : 4/23/2017 4:15 pm : link
Kozma grounds out to 3rd. Should have taken until the pitcher threw a strike
Ending a game with Pete fuckin' Kozma at the plate...  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 4/23/2017 4:15 pm : link
just the way we drew it up.
11-6 after 17  
Dave in Hoboken : 4/23/2017 4:16 pm : link
mostly without Didi and Sanchez. I think we'd all have taken that before the season started. And those two are coming back pretty soon.
Come on  
Kyle in NY : 4/23/2017 4:16 pm : link
2-0 Kozma better be taking at least one strike. Missed opportunity.

Of course Nova shut us down. That was predictable

I guess it was too much to expect a career .220 hitter to use his head in that spot.
Guy shouldn't even be on the roster  
Kyle in NY : 4/23/2017 4:19 pm : link
I understand the issue caused by Didi's injury. But he hits like a pitcher. Surely they could have done better
.500 over their last 6, can't complain too much  
jgambrosio : 4/23/2017 4:19 pm : link
given what they did prior, but probably starting to play at their level without sanchez and didi. hopefully severino doesn't bomb on tuesday, this boston series will be a tough one. sabathia and pineda over the last couple days are more of what we expected from them. really need bird to snap out of this funk. they can't have their starting 1b hitting .100, and carter is not the answer.

Every body getting a bat on Watson's pitches and Hicks whiffs three times. Almost anything in play scores a run.

well bad situational hitting all day, by virtually the entire team. They all had a chance to get a hit.

yeah and Kozma - the guy just threw two bad balls and you swing at the next pitch, WTF?

Well at least this team fights until the end. Pitching continues to be good.
It's hardly the end of the world, but that was an annoying series.  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 4/23/2017 4:21 pm : link
The Pirates fielded like they were arm-less all series, but the Yanks left thousands of guys on base. They were also trailing after the 1st inning of each game.

Hicks looked like a pitcher. Utterly impotent.
I'm pretty much a purist  
section125 : 4/23/2017 5:01 pm : link
when it comes to baseball, but pitchers hitting needs to be a thing of the past.
Ugh...  
M.S. : 4/23/2017 5:02 pm : link

...still no series win on the road.

O-3.

Still, team looks damn good.
I'm really pleased with how the young pitchers are doing.  
yatqb : 4/23/2017 5:36 pm : link
Really well composed, and with very good stuff. Portends good things to come.
Should have pinch hit Chapman for Kozma there  
DennyInDenville : 4/23/2017 5:46 pm : link
Or even CC
Yeah, Montgomery looks like a pro already.  
bceagle05 : 4/23/2017 5:46 pm : link
Nice to hear CC endorse him. Can't wait til Sanchez and Didi get back.
Was @ yesterday & todays game  
Rover : 4/23/2017 7:04 pm : link
Being 20 rows up you really see how impressive a player Judge is now.
But what really matters  
jgambrosio : 4/23/2017 7:46 pm : link
Is how many yankee fans showed up
Bret Gardner sucks  
nygnyy274 : 4/24/2017 6:53 am : link
Enough of this guy. Doesn't have a RBI this year and is like 3 for his last 35
Gardner looks banged up...  
Dunedin81 : 4/24/2017 8:52 am : link
he hasn't been right since that collision at first.
Bright side: Montegomery continues to prove that he belongs.  
Victor in CT : 4/24/2017 8:53 am : link
Ellsbury was a moronic signing. Gardner is a 4th OF, but with a reasonable contract. And a good guy.
