Romine Catching.  
section125 : 5/26/2017 7:37 pm : link
He has caught Tanaka better than Sanchez - or at least Tanaka pitched better with Romine behind the plate - was brought up sometime last week...

I saw one pitch. Lowrie laced it for a double. It was snake-eyes down the middle.
7 K's through 3 innings

i'd say I may have spoken too soon.
Tanaka looking great.

breaks the 0-19 with a double. Missed a HR to RF by about 5 feet.
Tanaka is keeping the ball down  
RasputinPrime : 5/26/2017 8:03 pm : link
much better results.

8 K's.
Yeah Tanaka with really bad command early  
B in ALB : 5/26/2017 8:03 pm : link

Quiet implies volume. I think you mean silent. Since I was expressing sarcasm I don't believe i'll remain silent.

Judge with a solid AB and then gets picked off attempting a steal.

I'm surprised Joe lets him run as often as he is.
RP really lollygagging it over to 1st tonight.

Putting on a pitching clinic  
mavric : 5/26/2017 8:38 pm : link
everyone who wants to be a pitcher should watch this game. Both pitchers in a classic battle - both bringing their best stuff. This is all about pitching, not throwing.

The only question is, which one is going to make a mistake first?

Always loved Manaea. Sucks he is showing off tonight.

Needs some more time off.

Where is Torreyes?
wow - Tanaka pre 2017 and 2017  
RasputinPrime : 5/26/2017 8:42 pm : link
average inches drop on splitter before 2017 : 2.67
average inches drop on splitter in 2017 : 0.89

That average is going to change for 2017 after tonight. It be droppin.
10 K's  
RasputinPrime : 5/26/2017 8:44 pm : link
6 on slider and 4 on splitter tonight.
11th K  
RasputinPrime : 5/26/2017 8:46 pm : link
ties a career high. Just about the best thing we could see tonight is Tanaka dealing.
Tanaka on fire!  
Dave in Hoboken : 5/26/2017 8:46 pm : link
Ties a career high 11 K's.
Umpire  
mavric : 5/26/2017 8:50 pm : link
has a very liberal strike zone. That has to be taken into account. Some of the pitches he's calling strikes would never by called by most umpires.

Still, the pitching from both guys are putting on a show and I don't mean to take away from their games. I just notice a lot of strikes that are fairly questionable. The kind of ump that pitchers love and hitters hate.
12 K's  
RasputinPrime : 5/26/2017 9:01 pm : link
new career high. Mixes in a one pitch popout. Loving it.
I suggested that Romine catch Tanaka after his last disaster  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 5/26/2017 9:02 pm : link
and it's obvious the coaches used the rainout as a perfect excuse to do so. Tanaka's numbers with Sanchez are horrendous. I wouldn't be surprised to see Romine as his caddy for the time being.
Hicks ran a damn mile to get that flyout to the wall  
RasputinPrime : 5/26/2017 9:04 pm : link
went in hard. Love how hard he is playing this season.

So El Gary would DH (I would hope) on days Tanaka starts
They are going to ruin Sanchez  
River : 5/26/2017 9:07 pm : link
With that nonsense. Romine is not some great game caller hell tanaka and Girardi can call the game. They used that nonsense with Posada back in the day. Tanaka is on 6 days rest. Thats the key the yankees need to go to a 6 man rotation but Girardi would never do it.
Sanchez need to hit everyday even if that is at DH. You don't hit like he did last year riding the bench because a Pitcher needs his own personal catcher.
Please Cashman trade Romine.
I've said this before- Romine is a very smart baseball guy-  
Del Shofner : 5/26/2017 9:09 pm : link
His post game interviews are impressive. If he wants to be a manager, I think he will be.
Judge gets fooled  
RasputinPrime : 5/26/2017 9:12 pm : link
jam-shot bloop to RF.

...and a hook shot.
How do you not  
bigbluehoya : 5/26/2017 9:13 pm : link
PH Sanchez here??
You suck  
bigbluehoya : 5/26/2017 9:14 pm : link
Headley
No catcher is going to start 5 straight days.  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 5/26/2017 9:14 pm : link
so it wouldn't be a big deal to let Romine catch one guy in particular. And I didn't post that as a critique of Sanchez. Tanaka and Sanchez were GREAT together last season, but it just hasn't clicked for them this year. It's a small sample, but the numbers are horrendous. Severino, Sabathia, and Pineda have all pitched well with Sanchez so it's not really an issue with Gary.

DAMMIT HEADLEY.
Can they get Headley

Wanting to see the crowd give an ovation to Tanaka, but they cut to the 20th Toyota commercial. I'm sure they gave him a rousing tribute to one helluva pitching performance.

Maybe I can find it on YouTube in a few days. Sucks!

A lefty starting why isn't,t Torreyes playing 3rd. Headless is slumping and Torreyes needs to get some playing time. Perfect opportunity to start him tonight.
