After that disastrous Baltimore series, it’s good that they get to ease into things with…Chris Sale. Fuck.
I’d much rather listen to the great Wayne Randazzo and Dontrelle talk than watch the Yankees flounder.
Why are they replaying last night’s game?
Tumbling tumbleweeds.
Does Dontrelle know this is a televised game not Stephen Smith tribute radio show?
Jesus H. Christ on a stick.
At least we have the night off from giving a shit about this game. Thanks, Carlos, for being an embarrassing piece of shit starter!
Volpe walking, especially against a good pitcher, is nice to see.
GD has ball 2 AND ball 3 as being strike 3.
UPD: Guess it didn’t matter.
That inning was a great answer… Not.
Looked like he tagged the ground then Volpe.
They waited too long to challenge. Yankees really have their act together. Not that it matters with two strikes on Stanton who had no shot against Sale’s slider.
The game could get really ugly here.
The Braves aren’t even a really good hitting team.
I’m not sure I’d count Rodon as one of Blake’s success stories.
Oh, definitely, Rodon is the worst guy for Blake, since he clearly doesn’t listen to Blake. Remember, he even turned his back on Blake last season! Rodon is just a douche. He just has enough stuff that he can sort of get by being a douche. But his stuff is worse since his back injury. Boy, do I dislike Rodon.
Blake’s reputation is vastly overrated.
Guys like Rodon are like the dudes who are born on third base and think they hit a triple. He has this great stuff, and he’s, like, “Okay, I’m done.” While if he just fucking learned how to actually PITCH, he’d be amazing.
6/21/22 Yankees were 50/18 735 W%. Today 51/26 662 W%
Jamai Jones – the Yankee offense.
It’ll say triple in the numbers but in the real numbers it was a lazy fly ball to left field, actually an error.
Boy, Rodon sure is pathetic.
Yankees have given up 11 runs in the last 12 innings. Rodon has given up 10 runs in his last 8 innings….and counting.
4 out of 5 chefs agree.
Rodan 13 runs in the last 8.2, let’s be generous and call it 9 innings. Does Blake get any blame? Did the White Sox and Giants know something s neither team tried very hard to retain Rodan.
Tankees.
I asked Katie Sharp who was the last Yankee pitcher to give up 13 runs over 2 games. Her answer will shock you.
Carlos Rodon last September.
Can the Braves hit the 13 run pool?
Some guy at B-ref saying “I told you so” right about now.
The first legit hit
Rodan 3.2ip 7r 11h
Y Gomez 3.1ip 0r 2h
Maybe it’s not that The Braves are that good,
Apple knew something. They had DJ 25% DP possibility.
Astros hit the 13 run pool against the O’s.
Boone “Rodan just needs to make some small little adjustments.”
Our genius pitching coach should fix that.
O’s get 7 in the 8th, trail 14-11.
