Yankees with some lineup adjustments with a lefty on the mound. Rizzo sitting, so is Austin Wells. Stanton gets bumped into the cleanup spot.
1.Gleyber Torres, 2B
2.Juan Soto, RF
3.Aaron Judge, CF
4.Giancarlo Stanton, DH
5.Jazz Chisholm Jr. 3B
6.Jon Berti, 1B
7.Anthony Volpe, SS
8.Alex Verdugo, LF
9.Jose Trevino, C
Totally agree. Hate to say it but you have to tip your cap to the two Cleveland hitters who capitalized on two shitty pitches. They could’ve fouled them off but got the barrel on both and cashed in. Also helluva defensive play on Jazz’s ball too.
The Wells K with 2nd and 3rd hurt big time as well.
This 1000x this. They haven’t handled adversity that well this season, if they can win this series despite one of the more brutal loses you can have then they might just win it all.
You mean a closer like Clase, who’s choked twice already this postseason?

One fucking out. That’s all you needed to get. What a pathetic loss.
he needed to get 4 outs… again for like the e 5th straight game. Can’t expect a nobody like luke weaver to be Mariano Rivera. Speaking of Momhe blew a playoff game in terrible fashion in Cleveland as well back in 1997. Shit happens
I didn't like Boone using him at the end of G2. But he started overthrowing when he got to 2 outs and 2 strikes.
But maybe people will shut up about Judge in the postseason now.
Just get the fucking job done.

they were a good pitch away from winning 5-3. This loss is on the players not executing, plain and simple.
Game was an uphill battle the second they announced this fucktard lineup. The fact they had a shot to take it at all is amazing.
How did they get a 5-3 lead then?
The other guys are paid too and as frustrating as it is, you give them their credit and move on. Stop being a sore loser.
I'm despondent, but this shit happens, unfortunately.
Brutal loss

Mayza should have never been on this roster. Then you try another more than one inning save from Weaver even though Holmes had been pitching well in the seventh and eighth. In the ninth he gives up a scorcher to Ramirez and a bomb that barely stays in the park for a double. Then he grooves an 85 mph changeup to Noel. After the double the move should have been bring in the sinker ball pitcher to pitch to Noel.
Using Rizzo at first in the 9th when you need defense (Cabrera) is stupid at this point in his career. Berti should have been nowhere near first at all and now Hamilton is hurt because of that.
The good news is Hulu got fried with Judge up in the 10th so I didn't have to watch the inevitable.
Brutal loss
Only the 26 guys in the Guardians dugout
Boone’s not the only reason they lost but that decision was absolutely idiotic
And despite all that they still should have won which is why it’s not on him. But you’re seeing what a value negative a bad manager is
Yeah that’s the annoying part. Most dramatic HRs in a long time.
The runner who reached on the error was erased by the DP.
He’s starting tomorrow

I don't understand why this isn't being mentioned more, I totally agree.
I knew Boone would eventually find a way to screw this team! That was all on him. Why not continue to play Holmes earlier like has been doing? You play Clay late in the game and this is what usually has happens! smh.
The Dodgers bought their team, that's weak in my imo. Another reason why Baseball should have a salary cap.
