It was Friday, May seventeenth, and the Yankees 5 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 1: were back in the Bronx after a great road trip, 6 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 1: and Aaron Judge remained hot. Nester Cortes was on the 7 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 1: bump looking to continue the Yankees winning streak.

To the weekend when the Yankees can pick 21 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: up a Friday night win, and I'm excited already for tomorrow. 22 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: I'm already thinking about tomorrow's game because Luis Heel is 23 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: on the mound, and he's been so good lately. He's 24 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: just phenomenal. His stuff is electric, and I'm interested to 25 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: see what he's gonna do at home with an amped 26 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: up crowd. Riding a win streak with that energy would 27 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: not shock me if he has one of those days 28 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: where he strikes out ten or twelve guys. That's what 29 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: I'm thinking tomorrow for Luis Heal. And sometimes, you know, 30 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: I question the sanity of these opposing pitchers. Why on 31 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,679 Speaker 1: God's green Earth would you throw a ball anywhere near 32 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: home plate With Aaron Judge at bat Right now, almost 33 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: every baton for Aaron Judge is either a walk, a double, 34 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:28,519 Speaker 1: or a ridiculously far home run. He was just phenomenal 35 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: again tonight, another home run, and look, he is just 36 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: on fire, just absolutely on fire. So John Carlos Stanton 37 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: went deep. He is second on the team with ten 38 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: home runs. He almost had two. He picked up an 39 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: RBI double on a shot that hit the top of 40 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 1: the wall. Alex Verdugo, the doubles machine, picked up another double. 41 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: Anthony Voltpi extended his hitting streak to ten games. He's 42 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: hovering around two seventy and I think he'll mostly maintain 43 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: that now. He looks pretty comfortable. He'll have some ups 44 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: and downs, but I think he's settling in as like 45 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: a two seventy something hitter, and with his speed and 46 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:14,839 Speaker 1: his defense and twenty home run power, that's an incredibly 47 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:20,679 Speaker 1: valuable player. Nestor Cortes was good once again, and the 48 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: Yankees took care of business against a very very bad 49 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: White Sox team. This one from Stanton, I really thought 50 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: was leaving the ballpark, missed it by about three inches 51 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: top of the wall. Nestor Cortes settled in laz behind 52 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: the dish. Tonight was questionable for both sides. He saw 53 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: this pickoff that was a big moment in the game. 54 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: Yankees now thirty one and fifteen, still best record in 55 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: the American League, still in first place. I saw that 56 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: the Orioles are winning tonight. They're gonna be a really 57 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: tough team to overcome this year. But Yankees right now 58 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: feeling good and riding a winning streak. Wow, winning North 59 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: Clinton would says, Nestor wasn't good. He was great. He 60 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: was he was great. I'll give you that. You know, 61 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: I should pick my words more careful. He was terrific. 62 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 1: He was phenomenal. He was fabulous, fabus you know, jodge 63 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: on fire. Let's go ahead and get to the finer 64 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:26,840 Speaker 1: details here. Let's get it going. First inning. It was 65 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: the only time they pitched to him. I don't blame 66 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: them for not coming near him at all. Again after 67 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: this swing, that's another all the road for John ah Rush. 68 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: But judge, you know there was a time in baseball 69 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: where a ninety three mile an hour sinker down and 70 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 1: in would have gotten every hitter in the league out. 71 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 1: But you can't get airon Judge, out with that right now, 72 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: second deck, four hundred and thirty three feet one hundred 73 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: and fourteen point four off the bat. By the way, 74 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 1: I just thought something. Today is David Wells's perfect game anniversary. 75 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: May seventeen, nineteen ninety. I'll never forget that, yelling out 76 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,479 Speaker 1: the outs to my dad who was in the front yard. 77 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: Twenty in a row, twenty four in a row, twenty 78 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 1: five in a row. Paul O'Neal made the catch to 79 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 1: seal the deal. Versus the Twins. O'Neill was in the 80 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 1: booth again tonight with John Flaherty. Interesting combination, but yeah, 81 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:28,919 Speaker 1: Nester was fantastic. He settled in once the first run scored. 82 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: He gave up a run in the second inning that 83 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: has snapped a twenty eight inning scoreless streak for the 84 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: Yankees pitchers, but it was an unearned run because it 85 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: was an error. So the streak began with Carlos Rodin 86 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: in the first inning of the Twins series and continued 87 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: until the third inning tonight. So really nice job. Give 88 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: a round of applause to the Yankees pitchers. Bottom four 89 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: judge walked, and then Verdugo ripped a double down the 90 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: right field line, his ninth double of the season. Continues 91 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 1: to play well. The Yankees Twitter account, by the way, 92 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: posted pictures of the guys coming into the stadium tonight, 93 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,359 Speaker 1: and one of them was Verdugo, and I gotta say 94 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 1: he had a damn high quality sweater on. I mean 95 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: that thing looks really really comfortable. Go check it out. 96 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: The next batter was John Carlos Stanton. He doubled off 97 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: the tippy top of the wall, just got under it. 98 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: A bit. I don't think the ball was carrying that 99 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: well tonight. Despite Judge's home Runjon Soto hit one that 100 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 1: hit the wall, and usually when Stanton hits one like that, 101 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: you can tell by his reaction that it's gone, and 102 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: tonight he looked like he thought he got it all 103 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: but it hit the top of the wall bottom six 104 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 1: though he got to double digits. N Stantoni John Carlos 105 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: Stanton hits him out tans home run of the season, 106 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: another boat drive just under the Poland Spring sign, one 107 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:08,279 Speaker 1: hundred and sixteen miles an hour off the bat, and 108 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: they made a point on the broadcast about you know 109 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: how he's looked so much more balanced at the plate, 110 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: and I've got to concur Let's take a look at 111 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: some of his recent highlights, because he's been really, really 112 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: tremendous as of late now hitting two fifty on the 113 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: season with a seven ninety seven ops. See him hitting 114 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: one off the top of the wall right here that 115 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: was literally three hundred and ninety nine feet away, just 116 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: above the sign, and then ninety two mile an hour 117 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: inside fastball and just crushes it to the back row 118 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: of the bottom deck there, just missed the upper deck. 119 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: Even when he breaks his bat, picks up base heads, 120 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: He's hitting really well with runners in scoring position. He's 121 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: carrying himself with confidence right now. He hasn't had as 122 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: many of those pitches recently where he looks completely lost. 123 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: I think that's a product of his balance at the 124 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: plate that they were talking about. That home run right 125 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: there was ridiculous too, and then another bullet here off 126 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: of Houston. I mean, he's just been so much fun 127 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: to watch. And you know, ten home runs in the 128 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: first you know, month and a half. He really could 129 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: hit thirty five or forty home runs this year. I mean, 130 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: he's he's he's been classic John Carlow. Classic John Carlow 131 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: could run better, actually, but you know, two point fifty 132 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: hitter with a lot of power, and that's basically what 133 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: he's doing right now. And he's getting hits in clutch spots, 134 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: as he's done many times throughout his Yankees career. Love 135 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: and watching him use the whole field been beautiful to 136 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: watch what John Carlos Stanton has done. Transformed his body 137 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: and has done a great job. Let's talk a little 138 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: bit about Nasty Nester Cortez though, because he had a 139 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: phenomenal evening, UH seven, very very strong innings, five hits, 140 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: one run, but it was an unearned run. As I mentioned, 141 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: one walk, six strikeouts. His ERA is down a three 142 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: point five six, He's got a very good whip of 143 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: one point five. He's leading the American League in innings pitched, 144 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 1: and tonight he was pitching with confidence, he was using 145 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: the shimmy. He got called for a quick pitch violation, 146 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: which I don't understand because I thought there had to 147 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: be a runner on base for there to be a 148 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 1: quick pitch. But nonetheless, he's been very nice this season, 149 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: bounce back year for Nester. You still wonder, though, if 150 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: he's going to stay in the rotation. I mean, how 151 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: do you take the guy who's leading the league in 152 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: innings pitched out of the rotation? How do you take 153 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: any of these guys out of the rotation. I've seen 154 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: a lot of people suggest the six man rotation, and 155 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 1: there's only one way that I think they would do that, 156 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: and that is if they leave Garrett Cole on regular rest. 157 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: Garrett Cole is a creature of habit, and you know 158 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: when he's on regular rest, he's filthy, and when he 159 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 1: has extra rest, he's not as good, and I would 160 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 1: contend that Luis Heal is probably going to be similar 161 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: those guys who have just electric stuff. A lot of 162 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: times when you give him too much rest, they're too 163 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: strong early on and they can lose their command, especially 164 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: guys who don't have great command to begin with, like 165 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: Louis Heal. So you know, the only way that they 166 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: would do a six man rotation, in my opinion, is 167 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 1: if Garrett Cole remains on the you know, five starter 168 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: rotation and you kind of adjust everyone around him. But 169 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: in my opinion, someone's got to go to the bullpen. 170 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: And even though he's pitching great, Nester Cortez is still 171 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: my guy. Now Caleb Ferguson has not been good, but 172 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,199 Speaker 1: tonight he picked up, you know, a couple of big outs. 173 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: We'll get to that. But in my opinion, the bullpen 174 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: could use another lefty, but you also don't want to 175 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 1: take a lefty out of the starting rotation. So it 176 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 1: is what it is. It's a tough decision. I'm glad 177 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,319 Speaker 1: I'm not the one making it. In the top of 178 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: the eighth inning, Ian Hamilton came in to pitch and 179 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: he was terrible. Three hits allowed, got just one out. 180 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: Boone had to go to Ferguson. Tough year, but he 181 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: did a very very nice job to get out of 182 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: the jam. Nice job. Clay Holmes came in for the 183 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 1: ninth and was absolutely disgusting. He did allow one base runner, 184 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: but he shut things down with no runners scoring. His 185 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: ERA remains at zero, and he is, I mean, pitching 186 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: lights out. He's gonna be in the All Star Game. 187 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: And you have to start talking about the cy Young. Honestly, 188 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: for Clay Holmes at this point, you really do. It 189 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: happens with relievers. Sometimes, it happened with Eckersley, I believe, 190 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: I know there's been others. I wish Mariano had won 191 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: a cy Young, but he never did. I felt like 192 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: one or two years he really deserved it. But there 193 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: have been relievers to win some. I mean, I think 194 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: Eric Ganne won it one year. I mean, if he 195 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: keeps pitching like this, I mean he's got a zero 196 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 1: ERA for you know, almost two months into the season. 197 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 1: You have to consider, you know, giving him some thought. 198 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: He's definitely gonna be on the All Star Game, on 199 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: the All Star team. But Yankees win their fifth in 200 00:11:55,960 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: a row. Yeah, all right, now, everybody's favorite part of 201 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 1: the evening. We do this after wins. If you're new here, 202 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 1: we give out the belt. It's our version of player 203 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: of the Game. And I came very, very very close tonight, 204 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: unreasonably close to giving it to Caleb Ferguson, because he 205 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: came in with runners on second and third, the tying 206 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 1: run on second and one out, and he got a 207 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: strikeout and a flyout to get out of the jam. 208 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: And that was a big moment of the game. I mean, 209 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 1: that was the highest leverage moment of the game. Base 210 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: hit there and the game's tied, and who knows what happens. 211 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: Maybe you waste this great performance from nestor maybe you 212 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: waste the home run from Judge or the home run 213 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: from Stanton. So you know, maybe it starts off, you know, 214 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: a weekend that you feel like you should sweep with 215 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: a loss late in the game that demoralizes you and 216 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: and your winning streak. You don't want that. So he 217 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: deserves definitely a round of applause for his performance, but 218 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 1: he's not getting the belt. John Daniel Muno says, Gane 219 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: won the cy Young and O three very nice. Yeah, 220 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: he was lights out, he was automatic that year. But 221 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: the belt today goes to mister John Carlos Stan valin 222 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: n why says when he lights out Hamilton back, I 223 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: concur Hamilton has not been as sharp lately. He's probably 224 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: a little bit of tired. You know. He pitched a 225 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 1: lot last year that you know, he hadn't pitched that 226 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: much in a while, and I could see a little 227 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 1: bit of a dead arm setting in. He just doesn't 228 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: look as as sharp. So congrats to John Carlos stan 229 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: that is his second Belt win of the season. And 230 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: shout out to Frankie Baseball. He posts the belt tally 231 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: on my x account, like every time that we go live, 232 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: we have a we have a stream on x Twitter, 233 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: you know, and Frankie always replies with the belt if 234 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: the Yankees win. So if you're wondering who's got the 235 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: most belts or whatever, check it out. We'll do an 236 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 1: update at some point, maybe next time we do a 237 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: you know, stay of the Yankees. So all right, let's 238 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: go ahead and take a few comments what you say, 239 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: and we're gonna take a look at the box score 240 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: and all that all that good stuff, all that fun stuff. 241 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: Tonight we're gonna do some stat cast stuff too tonight. 242 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: So nine hits for the Yankees Volpie ten game hitting streak, 243 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: hitting two seventy two, Soda one for four with the 244 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: double Judge one for one with the home run two 245 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 1: run score, three walks for dou Goo one for four 246 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: with an rbi. Stanton two for four, with a couple 247 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: of ribbi's hitting two fifty, Rizzo two for four. He's 248 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 1: been kind of slumping a little bit, so good to 249 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: see him get a couple of hits. One of them 250 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 1: was a bloop. Torres one for four, had a nice 251 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: line drive in the eighth inning, but nothing came of 252 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: it because Travigno pinch hit and bounced into a double play. 253 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: Austin Wells oh for three tonight. You know, I wish 254 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: he had he had better numbers because I feel like 255 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: he had a lot of hard hit balls early in 256 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: the year and just didn't have a lot of luck. Lately. 257 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 1: He's been hitting a lot of soft fly balls and 258 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: stuff like that. So I want to see him get 259 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: some luck here, maybe hit a couple of dying quails 260 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 1: that drop in. And also it'd be nice to see 261 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: the power come back for Wells Oswaldo, Carbrera, Oh for three. 262 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: DJ Lemayhew by the way, commencing a rehab assignment. So 263 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: in the pitching side of things, you know about Cortes, 264 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: We talked about him. Hamilton tough night, allowed to earn 265 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: run the only earned run that the Yankees allowed tonight. 266 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: He's got a three point one eight ERA Ferguson excellent 267 00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: performance five point seven to four ERA on the season, though, 268 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: and Holmes with a scoreless inning, two strikeouts, zero point 269 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 1: nine to eight whips, so less than a base runner 270 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: per inning, barely, but continues to pitch unbelievably well, unbelievably well. 271 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: Wheels says, Yankees looking real solid, They're looking fantastic. Let's 272 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: see here. David Lauren says, I'm just happy, man, That's 273 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: all I can say. Somebody said to me today, Mark Wiener, 274 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: who's the producer of Foul Territory, the executive producer. He said, Derek, 275 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: you've been in a better mood lately. How come? And 276 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: I had to explain to him, you know, directly correlated 277 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 1: to you know, how the Yankees are playing. So I 278 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: would love it if the Yankees could rattle off a 279 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: sweep here, and that would be a seven game win streak. 280 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: And then maybe you pick up a couple more eight 281 00:16:56,200 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 1: to nine games. Those those win streaks are are a 282 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: lot of fun. Joseph Figueroa says, when Cole comes back, 283 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 1: I think next Nestor will go to the bullpen. He 284 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 1: hasn't looked good against good teams. And then Zuzu Boy says, 285 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: maybe Hamilton isn't a surprise anymore. I mean there is 286 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 1: a factor there. I mean, you make a decent point 287 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 1: that the league does adjust, and maybe they're adjusting to 288 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: the slambio. But you know, I think it's just he's 289 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: not sharp right now. That happens everybody. Just like hitters 290 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: have hot and cold streaks, pitchers do as well. Let's 291 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: see here, Jedi sith Lord says the Yankees have about 292 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: six All Stars this year. All right, let's take a 293 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: look at some stat cast stuff. Aaron Judge. I thought 294 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 1: it was worth noting he's looking like Aaron Judge again. 295 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: Ninety third percentile in batting run value, and I mean 296 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: he's ninety nine to one hundred percentile in everything. And 297 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 1: somebody's gonna have to explain this to me too. Somebody 298 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 1: made a comment that they don't understand the one hundredth 299 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: percentile because you can only be in the ninety ninth percentile, 300 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 1: and that confused me. To me, if you're in one 301 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 1: hundredth percentile, that means you're the best, You're the top. 302 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 1: Right to me, that's what that is. But I could 303 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 1: be wrong on that. So maybe one of you mathematicians 304 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 1: can explain that walk percentage ninety ninth percentile. The only 305 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 1: things that are bad are the fifth percentage and the 306 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 1: strikeout percentage. Those are always going to be bad because 307 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 1: he's got such a big strike zone. He's got to 308 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: defend a huge strike zone. And he didn't have a 309 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: great night defensively, but overall been very very solid. Seventy 310 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: fourth percentile, arm above average, sprint speed not great, but 311 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 1: I mean he's three hundred pounds and he's got a 312 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: chronic toe condition. I mean, what do you expect. Let's 313 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,360 Speaker 1: take a look at Nester Cortes had a good night today. 314 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: He's expected er and expected batting average are very good. 315 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: Walk percentage is a elites, you know, just a really 316 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 1: solid year for him, and he picked up his second 317 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: win of the season tonight. Now he doesn't throw very hard, 318 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: and he's proof that you don't have to be a 319 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,479 Speaker 1: max effort top v LO guy to be successful in 320 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: this league. It's about pitching. It's about you know, inducing 321 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: soft contact. And the opposite of soft contact is this guy, 322 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: John Carlos. Stan average exit velocity ninety first percentile. You 323 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: gotta believe that'll be in the hundred percentile before it's 324 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: all over. You see the bat speed percentile one hundredth percentile. 325 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: That means he's the best. We know that. Barrel percentage 326 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:41,919 Speaker 1: ninety fourth percentile, hard hit percentage ninety first percentile. Look, 327 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 1: he's a pure DH. Now he hasn't even played the 328 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: field yet. I don't think he will play the field. 329 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: I think that's something the Yankees have just decided. Hey, 330 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: he's a DH at this point in his career at 331 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 1: thirty four years old. So I'm not worried about that. 332 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: I'm not worried about any kind of range or arm 333 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,199 Speaker 1: or anything. I just want to see him continue to 334 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 1: do exactly what he's doing. Get in there, stay healthy, 335 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: and mash the baseball. And Chris Hefferman says, offense is 336 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,439 Speaker 1: looking great when both Stanton and Judge mash and it's 337 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: been like that for years when those guys both hit 338 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: home runs. The Yankees have an unbelievable record. So take 339 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: a few more comments here. Word Lifer says, Aaron Judge 340 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 1: is officially Aaron Judge. You a smart mother, that's right. 341 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: Aaron Ell says, one hundredth percentile means you're number one 342 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 1: my quantitative my math specialist Matt Lawless says, what about 343 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: a six man rotation? We already talked about that, so 344 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 1: maybe check out the earlier part of the podcast. Dwight 345 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: Seymour says the Marton may not have a spot. The 346 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 1: Yankees have pretty much said that they expect to option 347 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: him to the minor leagues when his rehab is up, 348 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: So you know, it's it's looking that way. I would 349 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,199 Speaker 1: love to see him, but right now the team is 350 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: clicking and we just don't have a spot. That's baseball Susan. 351 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: All right, let's wrap it up. I gotta get out 352 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 1: of here. Steve says, the Yankees main five starters started 353 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: every game for the Yankees this season. That seems rare. Well, 354 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: they did have a doubleheader they had to start, I 355 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 1: believe from Cody Potius, who did well. But yeah, I 356 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 1: mean there were pretty deep into the season for the 357 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: ball whatever the adjustment they've made to the strength and 358 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: conditioning program, you're seeing guys play every day. Whatever they've 359 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 1: done seems to have worked, So you know, kudos to 360 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 1: the strength and conditioning staff. You know, we talk a 361 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: lot about the hitting coach when things are not good, 362 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: but I think we got to give James Rowson some props. 363 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:59,640 Speaker 1: This team is hitting the baseball. Everybody's hitting except for 364 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: Austin Wells to a certain degree. But loving what we're 365 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 1: seeing from John Carlow, Judge stays hot, and ladies and gentlemen, 366 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: I will see you when I see you.
