That was a "big fly" if there ever was one ...

by Judge standards that carried over the wall

;)

Judge leads the AL in HRs, BBs, and Runs Scored.

The only 5 AL players to ever do that:

- Babe Ruth (7x)
- Lou Gehrig
- Hank Greenberg
- Ted Williams (4x)
- Mickey Mantle

It hasn't been done since Mickey in 1958.

And misses out on the record books because MLB stole a legit homer from him.

short of that how bad can it be

It was either a ground rule double or a HR (or an out for fan interference.)

That's pretty good company.

after the harsh unfounded criticism bandied around here the past few years

for Ellsbury.. a machine.

we will see. Another guy that maybe can wear down thees chump pitchers like the old days

change up...

give that pitcher credit to throw that shit. Bird classy reaction with the ump

with 7 K in 3 innings. He is pitching hangry. I like it.

What was borderline? It was a just above the belly button, middle of the plate change up that froze him.

Meanwhile, Jaime looking solid. Let's get this guy some help.

by Judge. Two terrible whiffs around a slider he should have destroyed.

two awful pitches and looks at a meatball....Take it the other way..

bomb...

To form....Os up 5-1

to get Polanco and end the top of the 4th.

they don't throw him fastballs low and away. FB up and in, offspeed low and away. It's almost automatic.

Take the ball the other way. 75 feet of open base and he is trying to pull sliders away. Awful at bats.

all the RISP and they can't get a run in...

and have such a hard time in others. It's almost like this is a very hard game being played competitively at the highest level.

rubbish.

Would've been nice there.

Sheesh.

in Betances and Chapman. I'd be leaning on Green and Robertson.

This offseason he's gotta block balls with J-Lo

Gulp

Bases juiced for the 5 out save


Let's go Chappy

between our pitchers throwing the ball all over the place and Sanchez being slow/lazy/tired of reaching for shit - it's really not good for the heart.

Betances with another turd.

lol.

That wasn't Sanchez fault.101 mph 58 feet 2 feet outside?

This will be fun.

Why wasn't Green ready?

Well 7 RISP fail tonight...

Yanks were smart to not offer him the big money. Definitely his most disappointing year, but having no crystal ball to foresee this season's blown saves etc I wonder if the front office just didn't like his mental makeup all along.

Hitting 103

Clutch!

*nod*

Hopefully it's here to stay for 5 years
