Speaker 1: One to pour control.
Speaker 2: Welcome back, everybody, all right, Yankees win this one game.
Speaker 2: One hundred and twenty seven is in the books. Thirty
Speaker 2: five left to play, and the Yankees pick up win
Speaker 2: number seventy two. The Rays did the Yankees a favor today.
Speaker 2: They lost to the Jays five to one, so the
Speaker 2: pressure was on the Yankees to capitalize on that and
Speaker 2: to pick up a game in the standings, which they did,
Speaker 2: and they played really well tonight. That was one of
Speaker 2: the more enjoyable games that we've had in a while.
Speaker 2: It wasn't stressful. Garrett Cole was essentially on cruise control,
Speaker 2: and the Yankees offense was great. You had Luis Garcia
Speaker 2: Junior fulfilling the prophecy. You had Spencer Jones with an
Speaker 2: opposite field home run, three hits. That was a very
Speaker 2: Bryce Harper type of swing, a really good game for him.
Speaker 2: We got some calls about people that want to keep
Speaker 2: Spencer Jones in the lineup. I don't know how the
Speaker 2: Yankees are gonna do it. When you got Bellinger coming back.
Speaker 2: I think they're gonna want to keep Jones getting it
Speaker 2: bat so I think they're gonna send him down to
Speaker 2: Triple A. I mean, it's a tough decision because he's
Speaker 2: one of the few guys that has really shown improvement
Speaker 2: over the last few weeks, and he had a good
Speaker 2: good night tonight. Garrett Cole outstanding tonight, six innings of
Speaker 2: one run ball. He picks up win number seven on
Speaker 2: the season. Kyle Bradish with the loss. He is seven
Speaker 2: and twelve. Ryan Yarbro with the three innings save, his
Speaker 2: third save of the year. And we're gonna have a
Speaker 2: fierce belt battle. I think in the chat between Spencer
Speaker 2: Jones and Luis Garcia Junior, also Garrett Cole deserves some recognition.
Speaker 2: So we'll see how that all works out. I have
Speaker 2: made my decision. We will reveal it shortly. We got
Speaker 2: to get to the good, bad and ugly first, though,
Speaker 2: Chuck and Charlow says Spencer Jones in marsh and out. Well,
Speaker 2: Martian's already out, so I don't know what you're doing there.
Speaker 2: But Grisham with another hit tonight, Ben Rice stayed hottie
Speaker 2: an opposite field single. Elliot Ramos hit one off the
Speaker 2: right field wall. Three hits for Garcia, including the home run,
Speaker 2: the Nostra Derek home run, Jazz Chisholm one for four
Speaker 2: with a triple. George Lombard Junior took the collar tonight,
Speaker 2: Spencer Jones great night, Austin Wells ripped ad Line drive
Speaker 2: and jose cabayro for four, but he did have an
Speaker 2: RBI in this game, so rare night where Yankees only
Speaker 2: had one poop emoji. Jackson Holiday got the poop emoji,
Speaker 2: so did five other Orioles who went at least for
Speaker 2: three Bisio for four, Christian and Karnassi and Strand four
Speaker 2: to Varius over three, Colton cow'ser over three and Carlos
Speaker 2: Narvaia's former Yankee oh for three. Dylan Beaver's had a
Speaker 2: good night with the home runoff of Garrett Cole. Pete
Speaker 2: Alonso had two hits. He had a good series. Gunner
Speaker 2: Henderson won for three, but he did make an error
Speaker 2: and that is your good, bad, and ugly. Raymond says,
Speaker 2: still no helmet for Jones. His helmet does fall off
Speaker 2: quite often, but I think it's been staying on more lately.
Speaker 2: You notice it stays on when he gets a hit.
Speaker 2: It only falls off when he misses or when he fouls.
Speaker 1: It off when he.
Speaker 2: Has a nice clean smooth, easy swing and he rips
Speaker 2: the line drive into the gap or hits one four
Speaker 2: hundred feet, you know, the opposite way out of the ballpark.
Speaker 2: The helmet stays on his head, and that home run
Speaker 2: tonight was beautiful. That was an opposite field drive. That
Speaker 2: wasn't a pop up that carried out, that was smoked.
Speaker 2: It reminded me, honestly when I was watching it of
Speaker 2: Bryce Harper, as he does that often. But let's get
Speaker 2: to the nitty gritty and we can award the belt,
Speaker 2: talk about Garrett Cole. We can take a look at
Speaker 2: the division snapshot. So both teams were quiet early. Yankees
Speaker 2: didn't get their first hit until the third. It was
Speaker 2: Spencer Jones and then cabi Ara tried to beat the
Speaker 2: shift to the right side with a couple of runners on,
Speaker 2: Holliday made what I thought was a very reasonable throw
Speaker 2: to second base and Henderson dropped it and that scored
Speaker 2: a run. But I mean, tonight's a good example. Look
Speaker 2: look what happens when you put the ball in play.
Speaker 2: You know, just putting the ball in play there got
Speaker 2: the Yankees to run. It was not the hardest hit ball,
Speaker 2: and you didn't have a huge exit of velocity or
Speaker 2: a great launch angle, but you had a runner on third,
Speaker 2: you made something happen. There was another time where Garcia
Speaker 2: hit a ground ball down the third baseline, just putting
Speaker 2: the ball in play. Little roller base hit. Last night,
Speaker 2: Yankees got a run on just like a dribbler to
Speaker 2: third base. Putting the ball in play matters, and the
Speaker 2: Yankees need to recognize this more. Ben Rice brough in
Speaker 2: the Yankee second run with an opposite field line drive single.
Speaker 2: I think hits like that are gonna pull him out
Speaker 2: of his slump more so than home runs. In my opinion,
Speaker 2: that was a beautiful piece of situational hitting.
Speaker 1: Two outs and a runner on third.
Speaker 2: Yankees needed to run there in a game, in the
Speaker 2: game they have to win, and just a beautiful piece
Speaker 2: of hitting didn't sell out for power, took what they
Speaker 2: gave him. So those people writing Ben Rice off as
Speaker 2: a first half fluke or a flash in the pan,
Speaker 2: watch out, because I believe the second wave is coming.
Speaker 2: Elliott Ramos had a big two out RBI opposite field
Speaker 2: double off the wall.
Speaker 1: That was a gorgeous wing. We've been waiting for him
Speaker 1: to do something.
Speaker 2: Obviously, still looking for that first home run as a
Speaker 2: Yankee Yankee stadium that might have gone out. The home
Speaker 2: run by Luis Garcia definitely goes out.
Speaker 1: He cheers then in all.
Speaker 2: Beautiful piece of hitting four hundred and thirteen feet one
Speaker 2: hundred and seven off the bat, and that wasn't even
Speaker 2: his hardest hit ball the night.
Speaker 1: So he had a great game, three hits. Let's hoep.
Speaker 1: He's about to go on a hot streak.
Speaker 2: But with Grisham hitting now and Rice starting to hit better,
Speaker 2: you got Bellinger coming back, Spencer Jones is hitting all
Speaker 2: of a sudden, You got a bunch of lefties that
Speaker 2: are hitting.
Speaker 1: What are the Egg's gonna do?
Speaker 2: It might be a little bit of a log jam
Speaker 2: if Bellinger comes back, you know, this weekend or maybe
Speaker 2: early next week, and.
Speaker 1: You know he.
Speaker 2: Is going into the lineup, who are you taking out?
Speaker 2: Can't take out Grisham, He's hitting what three fifteen in
Speaker 2: his last ten games. Can't take out Spencer Jones, But
Speaker 2: you might have to. I think his stats overall are
Speaker 2: probably the worst because of you know, he's had some
Speaker 2: stretches where he didn't do anything. But he's a guy
Speaker 2: who looks like he's improving and getting more confident, and
Speaker 2: his home run tonight was absolutely crushed. So I mean,
Speaker 2: and he's also seven for seven and stolen bases, so
Speaker 2: I don't know how you get how you take him
Speaker 2: out of the lineup. But Ryan Yarborough fantastic job tonight,
Speaker 2: three scoreless innings to get the save, Jazz Chisholm with
Speaker 2: a triple. I'll tell you how impressive that was. I
Speaker 2: believe Garcia Junior was on first base and he slid
Speaker 2: into second base and still ended up scoring twenty five
Speaker 2: home runs.
Speaker 1: Now, by the way, for.
Speaker 2: Garcia, go ahead and make your belt. Vote in the chat.
Speaker 2: Sounds like Rosario's getting DFA.
Speaker 1: It could be.
Speaker 2: I know Michael Ka doesn't think it's gonna happen, but
Speaker 2: it might. He hasn't really done what the Yankees expected
Speaker 2: him to do against lefties this year. I mean, you'd
Speaker 2: be giving up a right handed bat at a time
Speaker 2: when you really need him. But anyway, Yankees winning this one.
Speaker 1: Oh name alt Teks wins.
Speaker 2: Hick g Money says Yarbie belt or we Riot saves
Speaker 2: the bullpen. Collaborative film says Jones for the belt. Adam
Speaker 2: Thornton wants Garcia for the belt. Robert Ryan says Cole,
Speaker 2: this would have been a good night for a team belt,
Speaker 2: but I hate doing a team belt. Feels like a
Speaker 2: cop out. You know what, We shall reveal it right now,
Speaker 2: Spencer Jones with the belt. I'll tell you why I
Speaker 2: went with Spencer Jones. Not only did he have three heads,
Speaker 2: which was the same line basically that Garcia had, but
Speaker 2: he threw in the stolen base. And he's also probably
Speaker 2: gonna not have as many opportunities to win belts if
Speaker 2: he gets sent to the minor leagues. Also, we had
Speaker 2: a lot of calls about him in this episode, which
Speaker 2: I'm going to play a few in a row here
Speaker 2: in just a few minutes. But I mean, I just
Speaker 2: thought he deserved it. I thought he looked great tonight.
Speaker 2: It could have gone with Garcia. You know, one of
Speaker 2: his hits was kind of an excuse me, dribbler. Spencer
Speaker 2: Jones hit three ropes. Could have gone with Garrett Cole,
Speaker 2: he was outstanding, could have gone with Yarbroo, But ultimately
Speaker 2: Spencer Jones was my guy. Let's talk about the starting
Speaker 2: pitcher in this game, Garrett Cole. Garrett Cole was terrific tonight.
Speaker 2: I mean, there's just no iff sands or butts about it.
Speaker 2: Very long first inning, but then after that he settled down.
Speaker 2: He also had two strikeouts in the first in he
Speaker 2: could tell that the fastball had really good ride in
Speaker 2: this game. Second inning was easy, PS won two three es.
Speaker 2: He kind of bounced right back, and then the all
Speaker 2: important shutdown inning one, two, three and a third after
Speaker 2: the Yankees put on some runs on the board. He
Speaker 2: ended up throwing one of his strongest games of the year,
Speaker 2: second straight game that he has gone six innings of
Speaker 2: one run ball, four hits, allowed, eight strikeouts, just one walk,
Speaker 2: topped out at ninety nine point two miles an hour,
Speaker 2: seventy of ninety.
Speaker 1: Three pitches for strikes. That's what I like to see.
Speaker 2: And you have to be impressed by how strong he
Speaker 2: has returned from Tommy John surgery. Three point one one ERA,
Speaker 2: one hundred strikeouts, twenty walks. He is now pitching like
Speaker 2: the guy that we had before he got injured. I'd
Speaker 2: argue that he's been even better than the guy we
Speaker 2: had in twenty twenty four. He looks terrific and today
Speaker 2: he was throwing very hard. He looks healthy, he looks
Speaker 2: confident on the mound, fourteen whiffs, game score of seventy five.
Speaker 2: Hell of a performance by mister Garrett Cole. To take
Speaker 2: a look at his numbers on the year, he has
Speaker 2: made now sixteen starts, he has allowed twelve home runs.
Speaker 2: That's he's allowed more than half as many walks as
Speaker 2: I have says twenty walks twelve home runs, so more
Speaker 2: than half of his walk total in home runs.
Speaker 1: That's crazy.
Speaker 2: Two twenty four batting average against nine point seven strikeouts
Speaker 2: per nine the Newport Beach, California wine Officionado. Nice job
Speaker 2: by Garrett Cole. Okay, let's go to the game breakdown
Speaker 2: and we'll see if the Yankees got eleven hits tonight.
Speaker 2: They got two home runs, two walks. They did strikeout
Speaker 2: nine times. They left five men on base two for
Speaker 2: eight with runners in scoring position two fifty so not
Speaker 2: great but better than usual. Eleven fly balls tonight, nine
Speaker 2: ground balls and seven line drives, no popouts. Love to
Speaker 2: see that hardest hit ball the night was Luis Garcia
Speaker 2: Junior and the top pitch bead was Garrett Cole ninety
Speaker 2: nine point two miles an hour. Let's take a look
Speaker 2: at the division snapshot. So with the Jay's beating the Rays,
Speaker 2: the Yankees to within four games. The Red Sox now
Speaker 2: eight games back, and you gotta say, if the Yankees
Speaker 2: are maybe three games or less back going into September,
Speaker 2: you got a shot because you play the Rais.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just all it is. Can you sweep
Speaker 1: the Rays? Maybe not, But stranger things have happened, and
Speaker 1: the Rays have been struggling a little bit. They've been
Speaker 1: on the struggle bus the last few days. Okay, let's
Speaker 1: recap the series. Yankee sweep.
Speaker 2: Mike Mustaine says, loving the young talent, Rice Jones, Lombard Junior,
Speaker 2: don't forget Cam Schlitzler, also very young and very very good.
Speaker 2: George Lombard Junior had a good series. Four hits in
Speaker 2: the series. Carlos Rodin made his return in the series
Speaker 2: four innings one run ball will warn not great yesterday,
Speaker 2: Garrett Cole much stronger today. The best performance of the
Speaker 2: series in terms of game score sixty two versus fifty
Speaker 2: four for Carlos Rodon and forty nine for Warren. Home
Speaker 2: runs in this series Yankees hit four of them. Ben Rice,
Speaker 2: Luis Garcia Junior, Trent Grisham, and Spencer Jones, Rice had
Speaker 2: the farthest one. It went four hundred and forty seven feet.
Speaker 2: Louis Garcia Junior four thirteen, Trent Grisham four to three,
Speaker 2: and Spencer Jones three ninety eight. I would have swore
Speaker 2: that one from Spencer Jones, and night went over four hundred,
Speaker 2: but I guess three ninety eight sot that far off
Speaker 2: for the Orioles. Shane Boz threw the ball well ten strikeouts,
Speaker 2: but to give up three runs kind of ran out
Speaker 2: of gas there. Dylan Beavers hit two home runs in
Speaker 2: this series. For the starting pitching, Chris Bassett went five
Speaker 2: and two thirds. Kyle Bradish went five and two thirds tonight.
Speaker 2: Not a great game. Score only struck out five. That
Speaker 2: is not good against the Yankees. If you're thrown five
Speaker 2: and two winnings against the Yankees, you better strike out
Speaker 2: eight or nine. That's and then Pete Alonzo with the
Speaker 2: home run yesterday and the long foul ball two home
Speaker 2: runs for Beavers in the series, and Kobe Mayo. All right,
Speaker 2: quick word from seat Gake here. As we take a
Speaker 2: look at these standings, let me know which game you
Speaker 2: want to go to, because we've all had nights where
Speaker 2: you got nothing on the schedule. There's a baseball game
Speaker 2: and you think, you know what, I want to be

Speaker 2: get a suite. You know, maybe I'll sit in the
Speaker 2: upper deck. Whatever your vibe is that night. But you
Speaker 2: can open up the seat gee gap on your phone.
Speaker 2: Just look for the green dots, a green dot needs

Speaker 2: the Bronx for almost the rest of the month, So
Speaker 2: a lot of great seats at Yankee Stadium. The Blue

Speaker 2: did that today, So anyway check that out for me.
Speaker 2: All right, First voicemail of three about Spencer Jones.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what Derek I think they're going to
Speaker 3: but I would have a hard time taking Spencer Jones
Speaker 3: out of this lineup. He has been looking really sharp
Speaker 3: the past week or two on offense and defense. I
Speaker 3: hope he's coming into form, but Having said that, the
Speaker 3: one thing that usually takes away from somebody coming into
Speaker 3: forum is when they have to sit the bench for
Speaker 3: an extended period of time and lose. For him, I
Speaker 3: want to hear it, you'd say, obviously we know better
Speaker 3: players are coming back, but the dude's starting to look
Speaker 3: pretty good, all right.
Speaker 2: I think at worst, he has put himself in position
Speaker 2: to be the centerfielder for the Yankees on opening Day
Speaker 2: next year. If there is a next year, I think
Speaker 2: there will be. There's been a lot of talk about
Speaker 2: the lockout and all that stuff. There's too much money
Speaker 2: to be made. They're gonna come to an agreement. And
Speaker 2: when they do, I think Spencer Jones will be the
Speaker 2: starting centerfielder for the Yankees. But in terms of what's
Speaker 2: gonna happen when Bellinger comes back, well, I think the
Speaker 2: outfield is going to be for the time being.
Speaker 1: I think, well, we'll see, We'll see. They might. They
Speaker 1: might keep Spencer Jones just because he's swinging the bats
Speaker 1: so well.
Speaker 2: I don't want to speak too soon, but Trank Grisham
Speaker 2: also swinging the bat well, So I mean, who do
Speaker 2: you take out? Ramo is certainly not going to get
Speaker 2: as much playing time.
Speaker 1: Bellinger. You know, he's one of the best defensive left
Speaker 1: fielders in the sport. So we'll see how it shakes out.
Speaker 1: Here's another call.
Speaker 4: If they send Jones down and heap Waymos on this team,
Speaker 4: we should write in the streets of the.
Speaker 1: Bronx appreciate the call.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think they're gonna want to keep
Speaker 2: getting him at bats now. He'll probably stay in the
Speaker 2: lineup for a bit longer they I mean, it's tough
Speaker 2: because they really like Rosario. Do you want to release him?
Speaker 2: He can't be optioned. Do you want to release him
Speaker 2: or dfa him to keep Spencer Jones. I don't know, man,
Speaker 2: I don't know that you just traded for Ramos, who's
Speaker 2: a right handed power bat supposedly.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: There's gonna be a tough decision. It's gonna be tough
Speaker 2: to say. I'd keep Spencer out there. I keep him
Speaker 2: in right field.
Speaker 1: There's nothing call, Derek greg in Florida.
Speaker 4: Nothing to say other than we would be foolish to
Speaker 4: send Spencer Jones back down. When Cody Bellinger comes.
Speaker 1: Back, we'll see. There's another call, dere J j.
Speaker 4: From Wolfspare, Pennsylvania, feeling very excited about the game tonight.
Speaker 4: I saw the guy's laughing and joking the dugout. I
Speaker 4: felt the enthusiasm all night. This is what I missed.
Speaker 4: I'd see mid mid, mid eighth inning. So I think
Speaker 4: I'm we're pretty good. But Bellinger went one for three
Speaker 4: tonight right as of right now. But what a great game,
Speaker 4: my goodness, and I missed these games. It's been a while.
Speaker 4: And also, Spencer Jones did well tonight, and I was
Speaker 4: thinking of you when he was batting. I was wondering
Speaker 4: if chin straps are actually legal in MLB.
Speaker 2: I appreciate the call chin straps anyway, Cody Bellins, you're
Speaker 2: one for two tonight versus the nights in tripa A.
Speaker 2: You just hope that he comes through this healthy. You
Speaker 2: know what kind of player he is, and maybe being rested,
Speaker 2: he comes back strong. I think that for a while,
Speaker 2: you're gonna have three lefties in the outfield. I don't
Speaker 2: think you can send Spencer Jones back down until Judge's back.
Speaker 1: I think you gotta. I think you got a d
Speaker 1: favors even though you're losing the right handed bat man.
Speaker 1: It's tough. Here's another call, Hey, Danny. No, this is
Speaker 1: let's fucking go, all right. Appreciate the call, Danny, Let's go.
Speaker 1: Here's Steve rom main hy Derek.
Speaker 4: Steve's thought from Maine.
Speaker 5: I have two mind boggling questions. Number one, why is
Speaker 5: Elliott Ramos still playing? There are any number of players
Speaker 5: who can play a decent left field, including Rosario, who's
Speaker 5: hitting right.
Speaker 4: He's very well.
Speaker 5: Question number two, if he's got to play, why is
Speaker 5: the batting third? Makes no sense whatsoever other than the
Speaker 5: old cashman's going to prove he made a good trade.
Speaker 1: Appreciate the call. I'm hopeful that Ramos can get it going.
Speaker 1: We need him. But you know, maybe he becomes the
Speaker 1: new Rosario. We'll see.
Speaker 2: Take a look at the med Rosario who this year's
Speaker 2: numbers are not that great. He got off to a
Speaker 2: decent start, but he's hitting two twenty six ten home
Speaker 2: run six ninety four ops. Doesn't really give you a
Speaker 2: lot defensively. I know he's a nice guy. Hire him
Speaker 2: as a coach, you know, he's just not He's not
Speaker 2: worth sending Spencer Jones back to the minor leagues. I
Speaker 2: want Spencer on this roster, all right, one more time
Speaker 2: from mister John Sterling.
Speaker 1: Name over, Yankees win, yank.
Speaker 4: A.
Speaker 1: We're gonna let Mary Beth have the last word.
Speaker 5: Oh, Derek, it's Mary Beth.
Speaker 2: And it's five to one.
Speaker 4: And this is the way a ball game is supposed
Speaker 4: to look.
Speaker 5: Little ball, occasional home run.
Speaker 2: And I love how relaxed and happy Ramos looks in
Speaker 2: the dugout and Garcia too, and hole pitching. This is
Speaker 2: the way it is, little ball, putting it into play
Speaker 2: and then let's have a home run.
Speaker 5: Okay, that's the recipe.
Speaker 2: Okay, look forward.
Speaker 4: To this show tonight and I think Yankees win. The
Speaker 4: Yankees win.
Speaker 1: Appreciate it, Lly, No, sir Damas.
Speaker 4: Derek, you got that.
Speaker 1: Too, did we? Did we do that tonight? Destiny fulfilled.
Speaker 2: A long time, been a long time since we did
Speaker 2: know for Derek. But we broke it back out today
Speaker 2: and Garcia came through. All right, guys, I'll see you tomorrow. Hey,
