NFT: Rubber Game // 6.14.17 // NY Yankees vs Angels // 10:07PM ET

Anando : 6/14/2017 9:52 am
NYY: Pineda (7-3 , 3.39 ERA)
vs
LAA: Shoemaker (6-3 , 4.22 ERA)

Quote:

Pineda (7-3, 3,39 ERA) has been consistently good all season, giving up three earned runs or fewer in 10 of his 12 starts. He is 1-1 with a 7.50 ERA in two career starts against the Angels, but they will be facing a different Pineda than they've seen in the past.

Matt Shoemaker (6-3, 4.22 ERA) will start for the Angels, and set to face the Yankees for the third time in his career. He lost both previous starts, giving up six runs and 15 hits in 13 1/3 innings.


Disappointing loss last night (as OP of the thread, I'll take responsibility), but streak was bound to end at some point.

Tonight should hopefully be a bounce back with our favorable pitching matchup. As mentioned above Shoemaker (while having a decent season) has not matched up well with the Yanks in the past.

From Yankees.com:

Things to know about this game:

• Pineda notched 22 called strikes in his last start -- a 7-3 win over the Red Sox last Thursday night at Yankee Stadium -- with 14 of those coming on first-pitch fastballs to tie a career high. He worked seven innings, allowing a run on four hits while walking two and striking out eight.

• Shoemaker defeated the mighty American League West-leading Astros, 9-4, last Friday night in Houston, allowing four runs on seven hits, walking one and striking out four in seven innings. He's allowed 14 runs and 34 hits in his last six starts over 36 1/3 innings.

• Talk about a difference in two seasons. The Yankees were 31-31 last year after 62 games, in fourth place, 5 1/2 games out of first place in the AL East.

Journeyman scrubs and complete nobodies.
Pineda has been mostly good this season  
mfsd : 6/14/2017 11:27 pm : link
guess he was way overdue for a 2016 vintage start.

Going to be a long one, hopefully the offense can outslug that murderers row on the Angels

Two of the three hits in the first inning were dinners, including an infield single, and a seeing eye ground ball in the second.


Most of the outs have been hit hard and he had a grand slam brought back. He's had a solid year but he's pitching horribly tonight against a AA lineup
This pitcher is a fucking slug too

Because he is suppose to be looking at the ball. (First base with a runner in front of him)It was a ground ball not a line drive. Announcers both agreed.
Why would the 3B coach wave him on?  
giantsfan44ab : 6/14/2017 11:57 pm : link
I saw him getting out easily.
Should not have  
River : 6/14/2017 11:58 pm : link
Sent him desperation Baseball.
Questionable send there  
bigbluehoya : 6/14/2017 11:58 pm : link
judge was just touching the bag as young fielded the ball
And he wasn't deep out there
Great send there  
Greg from LI : 6/14/2017 11:58 pm : link
You've got to be kidding me. This game is pissing me off something fierce.
Bad call by 3rd base coach  
River : 6/14/2017 11:59 pm : link
Would have bases loaded for Gary who is 2-2.

Man, not even at the bag yet. I'm generally a fan of making the defense execute that play, but that one is a red light for me
yea we had a perfect view

horrific send there with red hot Sanchez coming up.

Shuttup. He was looking. The ball was laced and took a hop.

You really are the worst. I thank the BBI gods that your existence is allowed on this site. ::eye roll::
Honestly, I don't think he was actually tagged  
Greg from LI : 6/15/2017 12:03 am : link
But it would never be overturned so it doesn't matter. Horrible decision to send him anyway.

Exactly. Truly awful.

Btw, no surprise because of the network, but between this crew and the Sciambi, Sutcliffe and Ross crew, baseball is on mute for me. Just terrible.
Didi misses a double by a whisker and then strikes out.

That kinda night.
Yay Headley for tying the game  
Greg from LI : 6/15/2017 12:17 am : link
Boo for running yourself into an out in Little League fashion.
wonderful baserunning tonight  
Stu11 : 6/15/2017 12:17 am : link
are we trying to cost ourselves 10 runs?
I'll take it from Headley

Makes sooooo many outs on the bases.

Good for Pineda  
Greg from LI : 6/15/2017 12:33 am : link
Didn't have anything close to his best stuff but ground out 6 innings.

Top of the order needs to get it done here.
tough call  
PaulBlakeTSU : 6/15/2017 12:34 am : link
regarding sending Judge. He's the kind of guy that when he gets accelerated, he can cover a lot of ground with those strides.

The LF received the ball before Judge touched third and I thought he was going to be out by a country mile, yet it ended up being a very close play at the plate even with a very good throw by Young (though he did double clutch).

Just because Judge was likely getting thrown out does not mean it was wrong to send him. It's like hitting on a 16 in blackjack when the dealer shows a 10. You're likely going to bust, but it's still the best decision.

It's worth knowing that if Judge holds up, it's bases loaded with two outs for Sanchez. Sanchez is hitting well this year, with an OBP of .365.

Also, according to data from 2000-2015, the chances of scoring at least a run with 2 outs and the bases loaded is 31.6%

Odds are, if Judge held up, the Yankees would not score because all baseball players make an out more often than they avoid an out.

So, using that, and considering that Sanchez is above average, it becomes a question of which was more likely: Young making a great throw and getting Judge, or Sanchez reaching base.

Simmons can really flash the leather. Another guy that the fans miss out on seeing because he plays for a non-contending West Coast team.
Wow great bunt by Hicks.

They're getting killed by Eric fucking Young in this series. It's like bizarro world.
They are probably saying the same thing

about Headley as we are about Young
Castro striking out on a terrible pitch?

Shocking
This entire fucking team is annoying the shit out of me

tonight as Castro ends a good AB by swinging at a horrendous pitch.
More to the point  
Greg from LI : 6/15/2017 12:53 am : link
3.2 IP by that joker Bridwell and one lousy run. Gotta do better than that against a crap pitcher.
Eric Young on base again...
