Yeah, my bad on not recapping two nights ago, which featured an absolute bomb—his first true blast—by Aaron Judge. Even more encouraging was the 1-2 breaking ball he lined into right field.
Anyhow, it was more good things as the Yanks beat the White Sox, 9-1.
After a day off they are in Pittsburgh for the weekend. Old friends—Cervelli, Nova—await.
C.C. goes tonight.
Never mind the Gorgeous skyline view:
Let’s Go Yank-ees!
Picture by Bags
I want to see Judge take one to the river
Boo, blue. Low pitch
Oy. Could be a long night.
Argh.
Yeah, a hit, not an error.
Strike our CC
Pop up is good too.
Congrats, kid
Crap, CC getting hammered
So, what else is going on tonight?
Headley comes through
Okay, now it's getting interesting.
Less interesting.
Wow, almost.
But foul.
Bah.
Sigh
The Yanks will come back in this one...
That stadium really is gorgeous.
Totally agree with Kay here, pitchers batting is pointless..
[17] went with my family last year, a really great fan experience. We had a blast on our visit to the "'Burgh". The city is booming, an incredible restaurant scene, beautiful repurposed old architecture, nice people with local pride, and a world class museum dedicated to favorite son Warhol.
Base hit for Bird!
Or an error.
I accept it.
I'd give a hit and error
Bird should've got a hit on that one, it looked like he would have been safe at first even if the play was clean. One RBI too.
Yeah, I'm thinking you don't want to collide with Judge
Still have a soft spot for Cervelli.
[24] Yeah. Don't even hold Biogenisis against him.
Oy
[25] Arod led him astray.
Boo
Ok, new day, new game.
Strikeout, Pineda.
Thank you.
I can't watch this weekend. Too poor for tickets and blacked out because I'm in pittsburgh.
Looks like the team forgot to pack the offense for this trip
If this series was any other weekend I would have gone to a game. Alas, I was in Zelionople for Easter last weekend.
Crap
Yay, a hit.
well that was predictable. man, pitchers hitting is so stupid.
Oy vey
jesus i'm sorta glad i can't watch this. Pineda back to pitching like Pineda?
Of course
[39] Yup
Woo hoo, Starlin! Tied up
YEEHAW! CASTRO!
Hey, that's a good way to get off the schneid!
Big time Castro!
That's a foul thing, hitting Bird.
Toe!
nice!
I don't remember things like this happening last year.
We'd get down 3-0, and that would be pretty much it. Sometimes scrape out a run in the eighth or something.
Ronald the ribeye machine.
Not good
shit
Goddam it!
Fuck.
Come on, Clip
Phew!
Carter!
delayed reaction but awesome!
WTF? It's the CF's ball
[58] what happened?
Nice WP
[59] Ellsbury hit a fly to left center, Andrew had to pull up or run into the LFer and dropped the ball. Jacoby wound up on third.
[61] ah i see. Thanks
Double digits!
thelarmis is happy wherever he is today...
I'm pretty sure this stuff didn't happen last year.
Judge joins the party. Dayum
THE JUDGE! Was that a big blast?
Damn.
I like baseball.
[67] Enormous. Waaaaaay past the 410 sign. Michael is guessing 460.
Yep, 457 feet. Holy shit.
Seriously.
[69] nice! wow!
One down
Two down
I stopped watching for a couple minutes -- did they have anything to say about why Chapman is pitching with a six run lead???
Chapman hasn't pitched in a week.
Three down
Oh, okay. Jeez, I'd forgotten that.
