1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:02,400 Speaker 1: All right, that's it to feel you. 2 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 2: To talk at you all. Today is Monday, September two, 3 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,480 Speaker 2: It's Labor Day, and the Yankees were in Texas to 4 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,880 Speaker 2: take on the reigning world champion Rangers as they try 5 00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 2: and hang on to first place. My recap, your reactions 6 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 2: coming up next. This is Pinstripe Territory. 7 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 3: Welcome. 8 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 2: We got Neil y'all sterritory. Just when they go. 9 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 3: Away, pull me back. 10 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,479 Speaker 2: Wow, it's never easy with Clay Holmes on the mound. 11 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: I'll tell you that much. Hope you guys had a 12 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:47,160 Speaker 2: good Labor Day. Great comment coming on Labor Day. On 13 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 2: Labor Day, that's very John Sterling. A great start tonight 14 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 2: by Garrett Cole. He had to leave the game with 15 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 2: a right calf cramp. Should be okay. We also saw 16 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 2: Alex Verdugo kind of grab at his rib area at 17 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 2: one point. Can we get these guys some bananas? 18 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 1: Please? 19 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:11,400 Speaker 2: Got that inferior potassium going on? Had amazing steak faheata 20 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 2: is today. Not sure how much potassium is in that, 21 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 2: but they were delicious and I wanted to tell somebody anyway. 22 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 2: Yankee is still in first place after a win over 23 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 2: the Texas Rangers. Tonight eight to four the final score. 24 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 2: They got five runs in the top of the sixth inning. 25 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 2: Very sharp, economical outing for Garrett Cole had to leave 26 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 2: a little bit early. I don't know, maybe it's just 27 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 2: not enough water in the dugout or whatever, but definitely 28 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: some cramping going on there. And I got to say, 29 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 2: worst center field camera in Major League Baseball for the 30 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 2: Texas Rangers. So we'll talk about that in a second. 31 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: I had no idea that Jack Lighter was going to 32 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 2: be pitching tonight. Former number two overall pick in twenty 33 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: twenty one, obviously related to Mark Lighter, junior Yankee's relief 34 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 2: pitcher and son of Al Lighter, who was at the 35 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 2: ballgame sporting an awesome tan and former draft pick of 36 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,239 Speaker 2: the Yankees didn't sign, and Anthony Vopie's former teammate in 37 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 2: high school, been rough for him since getting called up. 38 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 2: Entered the game with an ERA over twelve, but he 39 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 2: threw the ball pretty well. Yankees tagged him for five runs, 40 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 2: but I thought his stuff was impressive. When he first 41 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,799 Speaker 2: came up, his velocity was like ninety three to ninety four. 42 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 2: I watched his debut, and then today it was ninety 43 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 2: eight ninety nine at times, so you know he's found 44 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,119 Speaker 2: the velocity again. So it's only a matter of time 45 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: before you know he rounds into form. He's gonna be 46 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 2: a good pitcher. Let's talk a little bit about another 47 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 2: good pitcher, Garrett Cole. He left the game early with 48 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 2: a calf cramp, but he did pick up win number 49 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 2: six on the season. And if I told you in 50 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 2: let's say February, that Garrett Cole would win his sixth 51 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 2: game of the season on Labor Day, you'd probably say, 52 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 2: no way in are the Yankees making the playoffs? But 53 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 2: here we are half game up in the American League East. 54 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 2: Orioles won today over the White Sox thirteen to three. 55 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 2: Corbyn Burns was dealing so Yanks in good shape despite 56 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: missing Garrett Cole for a lot of the season. He 57 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: was super economical tonight. If he didn't get hurt, he 58 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 2: probably would have gone seven or eight innings. Instead, he 59 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 2: went six innings, just four hits, allowed one run, one walk, 60 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 2: and nine punchies. On the season. You see the numbers, 61 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 2: He's made thirteen starts. The era keeps dropping. It's down 62 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 2: to three point seven to one, sixty eight innings, pitched 63 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 2: way more strikeouts than innings. Pitch now seventy seven punchies 64 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 2: to go up against twenty three walks. So the command 65 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 2: has been there and the whip is higher than we're 66 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 2: used to seeing from him. It's at one point three 67 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 2: to one, but hopefully on its way downward for his career. 68 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 2: It's at one point oh nine. I think last year 69 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 2: it was even under one. I think it was zero 70 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 2: point nine to eight. So definitely elevated for him. But 71 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 2: a really good start, and you know, the calf should 72 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 2: not be an issue if it's just cramping. You know, 73 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 2: you get some potassium in you, you stretch it out 74 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 2: and hopefully he'll feel better tomorrow. I don't think he'll 75 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 2: miss a start, you know, over that. But he didn't 76 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 2: see him concerned at all. He threw the ball well, 77 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 2: and then when he was leaving the field, you know, 78 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 2: he was kind of shaking his head like he knew 79 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 2: it was, you know, just something he couldn't pitch through. 80 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 2: But he didn't seem overly despondent like he was, you know, 81 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 2: upset that it would like you see sometimes guys a 82 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 2: blank stare in their face when they have an injury 83 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 2: because they hate to get injured, especially this late in 84 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 2: the season, so you kind of figured it was something 85 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 2: kind of easy. He was like, you know, squatting up 86 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 2: and down, which leads you to believe he was trying 87 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 2: to stretch it out, which basically screams cramp. But anyway, 88 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 2: let's talk about that center field camera because for the 89 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 2: past couple of years I say this, but we got 90 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: some new people on the podcast now, some new followers, 91 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,359 Speaker 2: and I just wanted to make it clear that's the 92 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 2: worst center field camera in the league. Whose idea was 93 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 2: it to put a camera in the nosebleed section? It's 94 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 2: just too high up and too far away. The batter 95 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 2: takes up such a small portion of the screen. I 96 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 2: can barely see what's going on. I feel like I'm 97 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 2: trying to watch the game on a cell phone of 98 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 2: the guy in front of me on an airplane. It's 99 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 2: like you're trying to judge a painting at a museum, 100 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 2: but you're standing in the parking lot. It's a joke. 101 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 2: I don't mind the directly over the pitture angle, and 102 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 2: I can see that's what they're going for, but come on, 103 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,119 Speaker 2: can we get a better zoom? Lens? Are we trying 104 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 2: to get like a panoramic view of the entire state 105 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 2: of Texas. What is going on here? Got to get 106 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 2: a better camera out there in Texas. Absolutely a joke. 107 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 2: And James j SA's angle is too wide. Yeah, I 108 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 2: just don't get why you need to shoot that far 109 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 2: away unless it's for like sponsorship stuff. Anyway. In other news, 110 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 2: good night for a Yankee prospect. Spencer Jones was awarded 111 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 2: the Player of the Week honors for the third time 112 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 2: in Double A. He went ten for twenty four, four doubles, 113 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 2: a triple, and a homer. He had six RBIs overall 114 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 2: on the season, now hitting two fifty eight with fifteen 115 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 2: home runs and seventy four RBIs. He's twenty three years old, 116 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:17,359 Speaker 2: so you would to hope to see him in Triple 117 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,359 Speaker 2: A by now. I'd imagine they'll promote him win and 118 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 2: if Jason Domingez gets called up and Boone said before 119 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: the game that it's definitely a possibility, and he said 120 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 2: he's higher on Domingz than pretty much anybody. I doubt that. 121 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 2: I'll challenge you, bro, Let's have a Domingaz stand off anyway, 122 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 2: But keep an eye out for Spencer Jones. Possibly getting 123 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 2: promoted to Triple A. One big issue with Spencer Jones. 124 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 2: One hundred and eighty two strikeouts this year in Double 125 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 2: A in four hundred and thirty four bats, So that's 126 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 2: a forty one percent strikeout rate that is not gonna 127 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 2: cut it. Typically guys don't have less strikeouts as they 128 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 2: move up levels from one level to the next. So 129 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: he's gonna have to make him a jug expense to 130 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 2: you know, cut that quick word from the guys that 131 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 2: foul territory. Quick one minute ad break and then we 132 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 2: are back with there. 133 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 1: We're looking for real ways to boost our nutrition and 134 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: just found a protein shake that actually tastes amazing.

Come on now anyway, 157 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 2: good night for the Yankees. As you can see, both 158 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 2: teams were quiet early. Aaron Judge and Wan Soto absolutely 159 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 2: smoked the ball in their first at bats off of 160 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 2: Jack Lighter. Soto's ended up being a double play and 161 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 2: Judges was a flyout, but fun fact, it would have 162 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 2: been a home run if it was hit in Houston. 163 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 2: Word to Emily Nyman for pointing that one out. Very 164 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 2: nice stab by Jazz Chisholm in the bottom of the 165 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 2: second at third base. He continues to show flashes of brilliance. 166 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 2: At third base. He ran full speed into a wall 167 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 2: on a pop up up later in the game. I 168 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 2: am a little bit worried about how hard he plays. 169 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 2: I know that sounds weird. He plays very aggressively. It 170 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 2: reminds me of a funny story Hoody and the Blowfish. 171 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 2: We're filming this music video called Only Want to Be 172 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 2: with You, and in the video they're catching passes from 173 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 2: Dan Marino. I met him, great NFL quarterback, He's the 174 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 2: man anyway. At one point during the break, Darius Rutgers 175 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 2: said his hands were getting a little beat up, and 176 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,199 Speaker 2: he says to Marito, Hey, could you take it easy 177 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 2: on some of these passes, and Marino responded with I 178 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:38,959 Speaker 2: throw one way. Jazz Chisholm has one speed, top speed. 179 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 2: He plays at top speed all the time. You love 180 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 2: to see it, but you worry about him getting banged up. 181 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 2: Gotta take it easy around those walls, Gotta, you know, 182 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 2: take it easy going into home. I do like that 183 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 2: he's been basically going in feet first at home Now 184 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 2: Rangers got on the board on a line drive double 185 00:09:55,559 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 2: by former Yankee prospect Josh Smith. Kid has an outstand swing, 186 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 2: an outstanding swing. He's somebody my brother texts me all 187 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 2: the time about baseball stuff that bothers and only when 188 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,599 Speaker 2: he's ticked off about something that the Yankees do. And 189 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 2: he was ticked when the Yankees traded Josh Smith because 190 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 2: he saw that kid's swing and said that, you know, 191 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 2: he's gonna be a stud, and he's turning into a stud. 192 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 2: Aggressive base running by Marcus Semion to score from first 193 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 2: base took the Yankees by surprise. Semon always plays well 194 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 2: against the Yankees. He's just he's a spark plug. Top 195 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 2: six Torres let off with an infield single, and then 196 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 2: Juan Soto almost took Jack Lighter's head off with a 197 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 2: line drive back up the middle. Judge followed up by 198 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 2: ripping a double down the left field line to score Torres, 199 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 2: and that made it three to one, thirty second double 200 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 2: of the season for Aaron Judge one hundred and twenty 201 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 2: four RBIs. That ended the night. The night for Jack Lighter, 202 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 2: who pitched a pretty good game. He payed, which better 203 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 2: than I think his line would say. If you look 204 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 2: at his line, five innings, seven hits, five runs, no walks, 205 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 2: two strikeouts. As era on the season, still over eleven 206 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 2: almost twelve eleven point seven to eight. But I thought, 207 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 2: I thought he threw the ball well just you know, 208 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 2: too many pitches out over the plate. I still think 209 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 2: he's going to be a stut Austin Wells got drilled 210 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 2: on the hand to load the bases, seemed to be 211 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:23,680 Speaker 2: in a lot of pain, but kind of shrugged off. 212 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 2: The trainer told him to go back to dugout and 213 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 2: he stayed in the game. Catchers are tough and he 214 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 2: is no different. Jaszism followed up with a bass hit. 215 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 2: He continues to swing the bat really, really well since 216 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 2: coming to the Yankees, now up to two sixty five 217 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 2: on the season with a seven ninety ops, so his 218 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 2: numbers are climbing. Anthony Rizzo blooped his second double into 219 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 2: left field in as many days, but this one not 220 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 2: hit his heart obviously as yesterday. This one was the 221 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,839 Speaker 2: ground rule double, but he kind of cued it a 222 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 2: little bit. But still I thought he had some good 223 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 2: swings tonight. He also made some nice plays defensively before 224 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 2: he knew it. Score was seven to one. Cole came 225 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,599 Speaker 2: out after the aforementioned leg issue in the seventh and 226 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 2: Luke Weaver came into pitch, did not have it immediately 227 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 2: served up a single and then a two run home 228 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 2: run to rookie Whitaet Langford. Langford's another one who's got 229 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 2: a great swing. He's gonna be a stud. John Carlos Stanton, though, 230 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:23,719 Speaker 2: answered right back in the top of the eighth n 231 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 2: Stantoni un Carlos Stanton books out home run number twenty five, 232 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 2: the big g He's definitely got a chance at thirty 233 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 2: home runs. Five home runs in twenty four games now 234 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,439 Speaker 2: should not be that difficult for him if he stays hot. 235 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 2: Yankees are the only team in baseball with three players 236 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 2: who have twenty five or more home runs. Good chance 237 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 2: to have three guys with thirty home runs that would 238 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 2: be dope. Yankees turned a sweet six four to three 239 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,079 Speaker 2: double play in the top of the eighth inning. Awesome 240 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,079 Speaker 2: pick by Anthony Rizzo at first base. He's had a 241 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 2: very solid two games on both sides of the ball. 242 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 2: On both sides, Tim Hill did a nice job out 243 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 2: of the pen, and then with one out and runner 244 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 2: on first, Aaron Boone went to Clay Holmes, and is 245 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,079 Speaker 2: it bad that with a five run lead and a 246 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 2: runner on base and already one out in the inning, 247 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:22,440 Speaker 2: I was still sweating and nervous for a Clay Holmes appearance, 248 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,839 Speaker 2: and he definitely made it interesting. But Labor Torres, who 249 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 2: had three hits today in a double two RBI double, 250 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 2: he made an outstanding play on defense up the middle 251 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 2: to steal a base hit to end the game and 252 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 2: the Yankees take Game one. Seems to be some debate 253 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 2: over the swings that Anthony Rizzo has had the last 254 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 2: couple of days. I thought the double down the left 255 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 2: field line yesterday was an opposite field hit by design. 256 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 2: It looked to me like he waded back and intentionally 257 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 2: steered that ball to left field. Today, it looked like 258 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 2: he was trying to do the same thing, but he 259 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 2: didn't hit it well. He also kind of blooped one 260 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 2: to right field yesterday, So you know, he's picking up hits, 261 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 2: he's making contact. It's more than we could say for 262 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 2: some of the guys we've had over there this year. 263 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 2: And Junior Coroma says he loves this lineup. I'll tell 264 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 2: you what you replace for Dugo with the Martian, and 265 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 2: it's not bad, especially if Rizzo is gonna hit Torres 266 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 2: big night, three for five and the great outstanding play 267 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 2: to end the game, and he is your belt winner. 268 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 2: Belt goes to Labor Torrex Labor Day, on Labor Day. 269 00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 2: Go figure. CM is a little critical, says he almost 270 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 2: threw it away. Look, that was a tough, tough pick, 271 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 2: he was off balance. He got the oup. That's all 272 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 2: I care about. We ended the game, sealed the win. CM, 273 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 2: You're just being hypercritical. You're just being hypercritical. Could he 274 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 2: have set his feet and made a better throw, possibly, 275 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 2: but look, Rizzo picked it. We got the w that's 276 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 2: all it matters. Three hits tonight too, and that great 277 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 2: pick to end the game, so Glaber Torres gets the belt. 278 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 2: Could have gone with Garrett Cole, probably would have if 279 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 2: he had gone one more inning, or if Glabor Torres 280 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 2: didn't make that great play to end the game. I 281 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 2: honestly had it as Garrett Cole until the ninth inning 282 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 2: when that play happened, and then I decided at the 283 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 2: last minut I'm gonna switch it out. So just felt 284 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 2: like Labor deserved a little bit of recognition tonight. All right, 285 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 2: let's take some comments. Ray RhoD says, let's not drop 286 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 2: the next two. Please, please, for the love of God, 287 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 2: let us play these next two games like they matter, 288 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 2: because they do, because they do. Land in tops and 289 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 2: says Glabor day belt whoop, whoop. All right, absolutely hey. 290 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 2: Ray Rord also says Glabor has done his work to 291 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 2: get better to his credit. Look, he's been really good 292 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 2: out of the leadoff spot. He's been comfortable there, and 293 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 2: it's a matter of they have to pitch to him. 294 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 2: You know, when you've got Soto and Judge behind you 295 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 2: and you're not chasing, and he doesn't chase very much. 296 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 2: I'll pull up his stat cast, but you know he's 297 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 2: he's getting pitches to hit and he's doing damage with them. 298 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 2: Let me just pull up some baseball savant real quick, 299 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 2: Glabor Torres. Take a look. Take a look. So, I mean, 300 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 2: you look at the numbers. They're not amazing. The batting 301 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 2: run value, the base running value, the fielding value, all 302 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 2: well below average, not having a good year. But you 303 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 2: look at the chase percentage there, ninety first percentile, So 304 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 2: you know you've got to throw it over the plate 305 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 2: to him. Leading off the game. You don't want to 306 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:15,400 Speaker 2: walk him in front of Soto and Judge Soto might 307 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 2: walk too. You walk him, Soto's probably gonna, you know, 308 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 2: you know, be working a walk most of the time. 309 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden, you got two on 310 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 2: nobody out for Aaron Judge, and you got to throw 311 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 2: a strike because you're not walking the bases loaded to 312 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 2: lead the you know, to open up the game. So 313 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 2: that's why glabor Torres with his outstanding dare I say 314 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 2: elite chase percentage hitting in the leadoff spot is great. 315 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 2: He's way above average in the walk percentage two seventy 316 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 2: second percentile, and he's cut back on his strikeouts in 317 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 2: recent years, but power numbers have dipped this year. I'm 318 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 2: okay with that. If he's gonna do this out of 319 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 2: the leadoff spot, you know this type of player, and 320 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 2: I want to see more of this. If you guys 321 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 2: can see my mouse, I want to see more of 322 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,679 Speaker 2: these line drives over the second basement in the right 323 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 2: field gap. These are the hits that I want from 324 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 2: glabor Torus. I could care less about these four hundred footers. 325 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 2: He's our second basement hit line drives as a leadoff man, 326 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 2: get on base, work your walks, and hit the ball 327 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 2: in this part of the field and you'll be just fine. 328 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:25,439 Speaker 2: But anyway, we got the dub tonight. Let's go ahead 329 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 2: and switch over to the final thoughts here, get your 330 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 2: final comments. NESTBG says, you add Martian to the mix, 331 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 2: and dare I say the Yankees might just be an 332 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 2: athletic team.
