1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: All right, it is Wednesday, April sixteenth, and the Yankees 2 00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:08,760 Speaker 1: were welcoming back a big piece of their rotation, Clark Schmidt, 3 00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,959 Speaker 1: making his debut tonight against the Royals in the final 4 00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: game of a three game set. The Yankees were going 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,720 Speaker 1: for the suite. My recap, your reactions coming up next. 6 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 1: This is Pinstripe Territory one to two Cats. All wow, 7 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:31,479 Speaker 1: I think tonight calls for the fun hat. What do 8 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 1: you say, the victory hat. So you can always tell 9 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: how excited fans are for a victory by how many 10 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,600 Speaker 1: people are waiting in the chat when the postgame begins. 11 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 1: Usually it's you know, thirty or forty people on any 12 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: given night, but tonight we had over one hundred and 13 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 1: ten people just waiting for the show to begin. You 14 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 1: guys are obviously excited. What an amazing catch by Cody 15 00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,080 Speaker 1: Bellinger to end the game for the Yankees. 16 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 2: Defense. 17 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: That was a close one. When that ball left the bat, 18 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 1: I yelled an explotive in frustration, and then I had 19 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: to retract it from the universe itself when Cody Bellinger 20 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 1: reeled it in. Wow, what an ending to a homestand 21 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,479 Speaker 1: and what an ending to a sweep and By the way, 22 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: that's a winning street. 23 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 3: Wow winning. 24 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 1: Marcus Stroman was supposed to pitch tonight, but instead we 25 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: got the return of Clark Schmidt, which already improved our 26 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: chances of winning. To be honest, I thought Schmidt was 27 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: pretty good. We'll talk about his performance in more detail later, 28 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: but a pretty good baseball game. Big home run for 29 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: Aaron Judge, who continues to rake. And it's not just 30 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: home runs. He is hitting over four hundred. He is 31 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: hitting four h nine on the season, absolutely scorching the baseball. 32 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: I know everybody's thinking seventy home runs, watch him go 33 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: ahead and hit four hundred instead. I don't know it's 34 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: a little too early for that, but you know, we 35 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: say every year, you know, this guy he does something 36 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: that none of us are expecting that you know, it 37 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 1: raises the bar. And by the way, he is not 38 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: even I think as hot as he's going to get, 39 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: he is still kind of just heating up. He's not 40 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: hitting the ball in the air as much. He hit 41 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: a home run tonight, but he's been hitting the ball 42 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: like hard ground balls three for three. He's just hitting 43 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 1: it so hard. What a night for Aaron Judge and 44 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: the new York Yankees. How sweep it is. Let's get 45 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: to the recap, all right, let's go, let's get it 46 00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: going drew zy. He says, Judge is the best player 47 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: in baseball, and it's hard to argue with that. It 48 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: really is, it really is. Royals did get to Clark 49 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: Schmidt in the first inning. Curveball wasn't as sharp out 50 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 1: of the gate. It looked like maybe he was just 51 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 1: kind of getting the feel for it. You know, hadn't 52 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,799 Speaker 1: pitched at Yankee Stadium in a while, and I just 53 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: thought he was kind of kicking around the mound a 54 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: little bit, like he wasn't super comfortable, excuse me. And 55 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: I was glad to see him put it together after 56 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: the first inning, but you know, it was clear to 57 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 1: me that he was just kind of shaking off the rust. 58 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: Right The curve ball wasn't super sharp, but then it 59 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: got much sharper, and that's his bread and butter pitch. 60 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: Yankees did miss a base a scoring opportunity right away. 61 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: Basses loaded in the first inning with one out and 62 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: Anthony Volpie struck out and then Austin Wells popped out 63 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: to end the inning. So right away you're thinking, oh, 64 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: it's gonna be one of those nights. But you're also thinking, 65 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: on the other hand, well, at least we're putting guys 66 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: on base. You know, Bubick came in with a era 67 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: I believe it was under one and a half. It's 68 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: at one point eight eight now, so it went up 69 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: a little bit. But you're thinking, all right, well we 70 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: let this guy off the hook. I hope he doesn't 71 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: come back to shove as a lot of lefties do. 72 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: Clark Schmidt, I thought, settled down really nicely after the 73 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 1: first inning, and we'll talk about more of what Clark 74 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: Schmidt did during the pitcher spotlight portion of the show. 75 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: But he got some help from Paul Goldschmidt on defense 76 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 1: to steal a base hit away in the third inning. 77 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: Gold Schmidt continues to impress. He was one for three tonight, 78 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: still hitting three forty eight with an eight sixty seven OPS. 79 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: Judge ripped a double into the corner in the bottom 80 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: of the third inning, and then Jazz walked to set 81 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: things up for Anthony Volpi again, and this time he 82 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: came through booming double that one hot the left field wall. 83 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: Jazz was motoring around from first base and he scored 84 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: all the way. David Kohane brought up a great point. 85 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 1: I thought about Vopian, and you know, I've noticed a 86 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: lot of people being tough on Volpi the last couple 87 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: of days. I've been critical of his approach because I 88 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: don't think he's a power hitter. I don't think he 89 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 1: should be a power hitter. Obviously, the Yankees want him 90 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: to hit for more power and do damage like he 91 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: did tonight with a big double. But David Cone brought 92 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: up that it was an adjustment the pitch that he 93 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 1: struck out on his first time he adjusted, and that's 94 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: the pitch he was sitting on that he ripped for 95 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: the double. So nice job from Volpi. Austin Wells, this 96 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: guy has had some bad luck this year. He has 97 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 1: been hitting balls that should be out of the ballpark. 98 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: They're getting knocked down by the wind. He hit one 99 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 1: that hit the very tippy top of the wall and 100 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: it came back in. And tonight he absolutely scorched one 101 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: to center field, kind of slicing towards left center field, 102 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 1: but the centerfielder, Kyle Isbel ran it down and made 103 00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: a fantastic running catch to steal and extra base hit 104 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 1: away from Wells. Tough, tough play for Wells. Wells was 105 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: zero for four, hitting one to eighty two on the season, 106 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: but he should be hitting about two sixty two seventy 107 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 1: just on how hard he's hitting the baseball. Bass hits 108 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: for Piraza and Goldsmith and then a double by Bellinger 109 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: in the bottom of the fourth inning. He was out 110 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: with the hitting coach James Rouson today, uh crushing baseballs 111 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: in MVP, doing hitting drills, and he was so red 112 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: hot in Tampa for spring training that you know he 113 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: had some better swings. Tonight he made the great catch 114 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: to end the game. I think his confidence is going 115 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 1: to be high, and I think he's kind of my 116 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: pick to click for that Tampa series. I think he's 117 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: gonna go off, in fact, making the Nostra Derek prediction 118 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: right now. Home run for Cody Bellinger tomorrow night. Nice 119 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: job by Austin Wells to gun down mikel. Garcia at 120 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: second base. Nice pick by Anthony Volpi, and Garcia was 121 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: sliding in and kind of smashed his face with the 122 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: baseball ouch. Outstanding relief appearance by Mark Lighter Junior tonight. 123 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: The splitter was diving off the table and then Aaron 124 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: Judge for the first time in ten games, just crushing 125 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: the baseball. Seven home runs on the season, third hit 126 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: of the game, Captain America, kicking ass and taking names 127 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: Jack Fernando Cruz threw the ball well tonight, two scoreless innings, 128 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: and of course the amazing, amazing play from Cody Bellinger 129 00:07:52,000 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: to end it, and the Yankees sweep ball game overs winning, big, big, 130 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: big win. So the Yankees finish off the homestand and 131 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: now they are eleven and seven. They still lead the 132 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: American League East over the Blue Jays, and they will 133 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: head down to face the Rays who are eight and ten. 134 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: All right, we got to give out the belt tonight. 135 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: And you know, I thought about Volpee, I thought about Schmid, 136 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: but really three for three with a home run, gotta 137 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: go with the Captain, Aaron Judge. Third belt of the year, 138 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: is the only guy with more than one, and you 139 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: know what, he's gonna have a lot more. I still 140 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: think seventy is not out of the realm of possibility. 141 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: And this year, when he's not hitting home runs, he's 142 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: still getting hits, he's still staying hot. I don't know, 143 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: you know what he's unlocked, but he is superhuman right 144 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 1: now in terms of the offensive numbers, the offensive performance. 145 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: At some point they're gonna stop pitching to him. He 146 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: did get an attentional walk tonight, but big night for 147 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: the captain, and people forget and Jake Boss not forgetting. 148 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: Looking like a triple crown threat this year. He's been 149 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: a triple Crown threat twice before, in twenty twenty two, 150 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 1: when he hit sixty two home runs, most notably, he 151 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: came up just short. The batting championship just eluded him. 152 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: But he hit three twenty two last year, and of 153 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: course this year raking every day Clark Schmidt. We knew 154 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: coming in that he was not gonna throw a ton 155 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: of pitches, maybe not more than seventy five or eighty. 156 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: He ended up throwing seventy three pitches. Rocky first inning, 157 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: as I mentioned, But after that I thought he was phenomenal. 158 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,199 Speaker 1: He was aggressive in the zone. Even the last two 159 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: runs that he gave up I thought were kind of, 160 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 1: you know, cheap. He only threw ten pitches in the inning. 161 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: You know, sometimes you just hit some bats right, and 162 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: one of them was on a triple, and then the 163 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: guy scored on an out on a ground out, So yeah, 164 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: I mean, that's baseball. It counts, it's an earned run. 165 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 1: I shouldn't call it cheap. But I thought he threw 166 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: the ball well tonight. Nine whiffs. He topped out at 167 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: ninety five point three miles an hour. Of course, he 168 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: had a good year last year, five and five, two 169 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: point eight five. I thought the curve ball got sharper 170 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: and sharper. As the evening went along, he retired eleven 171 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,079 Speaker 1: in a row at one point, and you have to 172 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: say that this was a solid, solid performance from Clark Schmidt. 173 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: And I'll take one of those next time, maybe with 174 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: one less run. All Right, So with that the series 175 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 1: is over. Let's go ahead and discuss the key takeaways 176 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: of Are we getting some some people saying lame that 177 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: we didn't give Bellinger the belt? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, 178 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: but you know, judge three for three with a home run, 179 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: What are you gonna do? Carrasco made a great start 180 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: in Game one, five innings of one hit, one run ball. 181 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: I thought he threw his best game as a Yankee. 182 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 1: Max Freed was really sharp in Game two. He's got 183 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 1: that ERA under two on the season, and I'm feeling 184 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,199 Speaker 1: confident every time he's out there. This series, we had 185 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: the Martian breakout on defense. He turned some heads in 186 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: Game one and then he had three hits and the 187 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: game winning three run double from the right side on 188 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: game in game two before he knocked the shit out 189 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: of himself with his own bat and had to come 190 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: out of the game because he popped his own contact 191 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: lens out of his face. But tonight more growing pains, 192 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: failed to slide going into second, was called out and 193 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: did strike out three times. So you know, that's what 194 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: it's well, that's what it's going to be like. Sometimes 195 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: for rookies, you have a great game and then you 196 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: come back to earth. You know, it's not that easy. 197 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: Aaron Judge hit his first home run in ten games 198 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 1: and continues to rack up hits. I would not put 199 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: that triple Crown pasted him wells snake bit hit the 200 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: ball hard all series. I still think he's swinging the 201 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: bat well. Wouldn't shock me if he does well in Tampa. 202 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: He swung the bat really well down there at Steinbrenderfield 203 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: as well. Obviously comfortable hitting there. And the Yankees' rotation 204 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: is stronger now than it was when the series began, 205 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: so that is a positive. James Rafford or sorry, Thomas 206 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 1: Rafferty says, do you think Juan Soto makes that catch? 207 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: Absolutely not, no chance in hell. But I I don't 208 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: want to keep talking about one Sod. I'm honestly just 209 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 1: kind of tired of talking about Wan Soda. You know, 210 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: go have fun. Whatever. He's got home runs in the 211 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: last couple of games. We're gonna do our thing. We're 212 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: in first place, We'll win without him. Yankees will head 213 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: to Steinbrennerfield, as I mentioned, where they will face Cam 214 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: and Arrow, who is absolutely red hot. But the Yankees 215 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: are comfortable there, you know. I think they might have 216 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: a higher level of comfort hitting there than even the Rays, 217 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,719 Speaker 1: who haven't been there as long, even though they are 218 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: in the middle of a long stretch of home games. 219 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: Camon Arrow three home runs in the past four days, 220 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: but their bullpen has been serving up a lot of 221 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: meatball time to stop throwing the very very thin I 222 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: think you're with four games coming up, you're gonna see 223 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: at least one or two of those games where the 224 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: Yankees hit four or five home runs. I just I 225 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: think that's the way it's gonna go. And Shane boz 226 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 1: is their best pitcher right now, ninth best ERA in 227 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: the in Major League Baseball, so watch out for him. 228 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: One point four to two ERA players will tell you 229 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 1: that they hate four game series because it's difficult to 230 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,680 Speaker 1: win those series. A lot of them end up as splits. 231 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: But I think the Yankees can take three out of four. 232 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 1: I'm feeling optimistic. It's gonna be warmer weather. Judge is 233 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: due for a home run barrage now that he's got 234 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,319 Speaker 1: that launch angle problem figured out. And I think we're 235 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: gonna get some help from Cody Bellinger, whose confidence is high. 236 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,959 Speaker 1: Jason Dominguez has been looking good, and obviously, uh, the 237 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: Yankees are used to hitting in Tampa, so I think 238 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: it's gonna work out. And at least we don't have 239 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: to look at drop a cana field even if we 240 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 1: get swept. That's still a positive. We don't have to 241 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: hear about catwalks or look at that ugly green carpet. 242 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: They had baseball on grass outdoors in the Sunshine. Quick 243 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: word from our sponsor tonight, Harry's Razors. Their trial set 244 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: is only three dollars.

You might 254 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: notice my beard is gone. I did that because I 255 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 1: wanted to test out this razor that they sent me. 256 00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: I don't like to pitch things unless I try them 257 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 1: myse and I gotta say I am very impressed with 258 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: Harry's Razors.

I really enjoyed the weighted handle. It gives 262 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: me like a nice feeling of control over the razor. 263 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: I don't have to worry about cutting myself. Their trial 264 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: set is thirteen dollars, but using our exclusive link and code, 265 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: you can get it for just three dollars.

All right, so comments of the night. 269 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: We got a super chat here from hit him with 270 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: the twist. He says, every episode you show your dog live, 271 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: I'll tip five dollars ten if you get him a 272 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: fun at So it's a she. She is actually in 273 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 1: bed right now. I tipic we close the door and 274 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 1: lock her in the bedroom with my wife when I'm 275 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: doing my show because I don't like, you know, sounds 276 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: and stuff happening in the room. But next time she's 277 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: in here, I'll make sure she appears. And then Teddy 278 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: Teddy Ballgame says, can Beltinger get an honorary backup belt? Sure? 279 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: Joe Wish is my come on? Referee says we don't 280 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: have to look at the chop, but we do get 281 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: to look at Trish Whittaker though Trish Whittaker one of 282 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: the best in the business. And then Alan Evangelista says, 283 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: is it safe to call it a streak? Yes? So 284 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: win streak is three. We announced it early. We played 285 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: the sound effect. Win streak is three. I won't do 286 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: it for two, but I will do it for three, 287 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: and I will do it for every successive win after that. 288 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: Josh Kang says, I need my sweet King Volpi to 289 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: be more consistent. That's what we're looking for. And whenever 290 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: I hear somebody talk about a baseball player's consistency, I 291 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 1: tell this story so apology if you've heard it before. 292 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 1: But there was a time in the eighties where Ricky 293 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 1: Henderson was late to spring training two years in a row, 294 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:12,360 Speaker 1: and they asked Don Maddingly about it, and Don Mattingley said, well, 295 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: at least he's consistent. That's what you want out of 296 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 1: a player. Consistency, all right, So Urban says he's going 297 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: to try the razors appreciate that. It really is great. 298 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 1: I use it again this morning to get the next shave. 299 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 1: I've got the five o'clock coming back in, but I'm 300 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: gonna grow the beard back, but it's definitely great for 301 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: the next shave too. And then let's see here. Dave 302 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: Lawrence says, we're streaking. Everybody's doing it going through the 303 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 1: quad up to the gymnasium. Who remembers Old School, What 304 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: a what a movie that was? All right, you got 305 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: a couple of voicemails here. 306 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 2: This's love Jared's New York Gamers little fun back today. 307 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 2: I noticed that. I don't know if you noticed this 308 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 2: as well, but when Garcia swiped the bag today and 309 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 2: got thrown out by VOLTI get tagged in the face 310 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 2: pretty hard. And I remember Game five of the Alds 311 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 2: last year when the same thing happened, when a Vulty 312 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,919 Speaker 2: tagged him hard. He cried about it like a like 313 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 2: a little baby, and the bench is kind of emptied, 314 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 2: got a little slumstack about this, and I just thought 315 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 2: it was kind of funny. Nothing ever happened to it. 316 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 2: I thought to be some bad blood. But no, anyway, 317 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 2: man keep up, just keep up the good work. Man, 318 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 2: talk to the soon. 319 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: I enjoyed that quite a bit. I can't believe he's done. 320 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 4: Hey, Derek, how are you? This is caberite pill from 321 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 4: the caskill. Oh Avery, Judge just breaks the three three 322 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 4: tie here the ansor up four to three in the ninth. 323 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 4: I mean, Judge is three for three. He's now hitting 324 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 4: four oh nine seven home runs twenty one RBIs his 325 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 4: ops well coming in he was one point two two 326 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 4: four ops, so it's higher than that. He's just simply 327 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,120 Speaker 4: the best, the best player I ever seen in my life. 328 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,479 Speaker 4: And I don't ever want to hear people say, well, 329 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 4: what about the playoffs, what about the postseason? I talked 330 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 4: about this all the time. I don't care. I really 331 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 4: don't care. I mean, you don't get to the playoffs. 332 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 4: Look at his war He's simply the best player in baseball, 333 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 4: not even close, not even close. And the youngs don't 334 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 4: don't make the postseason without Judge. So I don't want 335 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 4: to hear it. I don't care if Judge goes over 336 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 4: twenty in the playoffs this year. I care about that comment. 337 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna stop you right there, mister Tabor talk. We 338 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: don't even want to put that out there into the universe. 339 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,120 Speaker 1: There's no way that's happening this year. Judge is having 340 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 1: that season with a chip on his shoulder where he 341 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:46,679 Speaker 1: will let nothing get in the way of postseason destruction 342 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: of baseballs. 343 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, hi, Derek Steve calling them from I realize it 344 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 4: goes against the instincts of a baseball player, and I 345 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 4: don't even know if you can ask them to do this, 346 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 4: but we've got to tell these guys hitting in front 347 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 4: of Judge. 348 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 5: Don't go stretching your singles into doubles, especially. 349 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 3: With two outs, and especially with nobody hitting behind Judge, 350 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 3: and who's any kind of a hitter. 351 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 2: That's all. 352 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: Appreciate the call. Like you said, it goes against their instincts. 353 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: Players are if they have a chance to take an 354 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: extra base, they're gonna take it. But I don't like 355 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 1: to see Judge walked in big spots. Obviously, it's something 356 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: they got to figure out. Maybe you need one more 357 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,959 Speaker 1: bat in the lineup. Maybe that's what the answer is. 358 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: Final comment here or phone call is about our trade capital, Derek, 359 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: what's going on? 360 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 3: Man? This is Matt in South Carolina. Wanted to pick 361 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:58,360 Speaker 3: your brain about trade capital. I am very curious about 362 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 3: Trent Risham. I don't know. I think they're playing him 363 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 3: a lot right now. I think he deserves to be 364 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 3: played a lot right now. 365 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,159 Speaker 5: But after how little they used him last year, I 366 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 5: think he could be a trade piece. I think him Praza, 367 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 5: even Oswaldough Maybe I don't know. I think I think 368 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 5: they could be grooming up some real good trade capital. 369 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,160 Speaker 3: What do you think. I think we got to get 370 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 3: a contra and I think Grisham could be a part 371 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 3: of that package. Let me know your thoughts. 372 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 1: Thank you, oh man. I you know, as little as 373 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: he plays, I mean, he's playing more this year. I 374 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: really like having Grisham on the team. I mean, he's 375 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: just such a smooth defender that's not easy to come by, 376 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,640 Speaker 1: and he has a little pop from the left side. 377 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: He'll hit the big home run. He hit a couple 378 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: of clutch home runs last year. He's already got a 379 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,679 Speaker 1: couple of big hits this year. I don't think they 380 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: want to move him. And I mean I could see 381 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:56,719 Speaker 1: a scenario where a team at the deadline, you know, 382 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: would need an outfielder, right. I mean, it was that 383 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 1: year that the Yankees traded Baiter at the deadline, but 384 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 1: they were out of it. If the Yankees are still 385 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: in contention, I can't see them trading anyone like that 386 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: off of the major league roster. I think they'll just 387 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: make additions. I don't think they'll make a lot of 388 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: subtractions that are that substantial. I think they're counting on Grisham, 389 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: and I think he's done a nice job. All Right, 390 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, well one more time. As is tradition, 391 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: Yankees win win yik triple Crown.
