That is a weird ass lineup for the Yankees (the Giants, too, but they’re dealing with a lot of injuries). Hicks should be tough, hopefully Stroman does well.
Jordan Hicks looks cool, he’s a cool guy
Grisham day.
hurrah
Judge!
very sneaky judge
very sneaky x2
OK that’s good
Spencer Jones with a much needed 3-4 including a HR (first HR since April 23!). Jasson also had a HR.
Martian is hitting 333/959. Martian, Spencer and Rice a combined 9/13 with 2 walks.
They’ll keep him in the minors as long as they can but then what, barring an injury, if he keeps mashing?
Judge looks like he wants another crack at the record
Better that than another crack at the Dodger Stadium outfield wall.
stroman angering babip prophet and fip gods
now xfip gods getting upset
Oh come on let him finish the inning
friggin orioles keep winning
While it definitely IS annoying, can you imagine how aggravating it must be to be an Orioles fan and seeing the O’s two games back with a .650 winning percentage?!
On Judge’s defense, from https://www.mlb.com/yankees/news/grading-star-player-position-switches-in-2024
I suspect it’s not that Judge couldn’t make such plays; it’s that he’d rather not risk another injury.
The arm’s got to help, too.
Just saw a highlight on mlb.com of Ellie dlC throwing a guy out at home, btw. Worth a look. Damn.
Damn, indeed. Perfect relay.
When he puts it all together he will be one Ell of a ballplayer.
I don’t know if they broke it down on the broadcast, but DiMaggio’s 1937 July with 31 extra base hits featured 15 homers, 10 doubles and 6 triples.
Also, at the other end of the spectrum, Thairo Estrada, who’s never put up a .740 OPS in a full season is in the Giant’s three hole!?!
The Giants have had so many injuries that Estrada is one of their few Major League hitters.
free Ben rice!
