CC vs Hammel
This is a good series to get back on track. The Royals have 2 good pitchers in Vargas (Wed) and Duffy (Thurs), but their hitting has not been good this season.
minors note: Blake Rutherford is starting to get hot in A ball.
He is hitting .290 with .375 obp in 33 games. He hit his first HR this season. He has 19 runs and 15 rbi's. He also has 6 SB.
Our future outfield of RF Judge, Frasier CF, Rutherford LF?? I know he has a few years to go but he is only 20 but 2020 would be a good year to expect him.

Even Ellsbury getting involved. Throw CC in the 7th, I assume?
his pitch count is only 63, so yeah ...
^^^^this.
No, that was Nick Markakis.
Too bad, he seemed to run out of gas middle of that inning.
rRling on the field - no catch, Carter caught off first - first and third, one out. Replay - catch was made, Gardner out, Didi back to 2nd - first and second, one out. Never seen one quite like it.
7-0 but we are raking.

It was about 10 minutes ago - you had to see it ... I like BBQ as much as anyone but this stack (they were showing BBQ at the stadium) was on the gross side.

It WAS frackin disgusting. Mediocre ribs on wonderbread with some slop tossed on top? Right. Pass.
Just like an ump that calls Judge out on a pitch clearly inside just to get the game done.

Thanks. It seemed like a weird play to challenge. Didn't know if they were hoping for a DP. Taking Gardner off the bases and moving the guy on third back to second makes sense to challenge for though.
Here's Holder now.

I was questioning your taste. It wasn't disgusting. Guess you don't like BBQ.
I think it was at a famous rib house, not the stadium. But, they could keep the bread.
Thank god the umps didn't do that then. Ugh. I can't stand illegitimate uses of replay. It's bad enough as is.
About as good as people on Yankee threads bitching about Girardi for no particular reason.
Go Yanks!!

benches Carter tomorrow after he finally puts together a multi-hit game?

Literally incrrdullous at this phenomenon. Girardi is a top 3 manager in baseball and he gets shit on by Yanks fans here. The waters he has been asked to navigate the past 7/8 seasons have been tumultuous to say the least.
