    Cole vs the Angels over the last 7 games has averaged a 1.92 batting average against, with 15K/per 9-IP.

    Ohtani in 17 AB vs Cole
    3 Hits/ 7 SO/ .176 B'Avg/ .222 OBP%/ .235 SLG% / .458 OPS

    In other words Cole has owned and embarrassed Ohtani.

    deGrom throwing 102 mph smoke vs the Dodgers on Sports Net LA.
    Strikes out 2 in the 1st IP, including Freddie Freeman.

    Typically during Yankee games in Anaheim 50% of the crowd is wearing Yankee navy blue. From 84 through 89, about 75% of the crowd were Yankee fans in Anaheim. Angel fans were definitely a minority!

    Was even better from 95 to 2005, there were times I swear there were only 10% Angel fans 90% Yankee fans!

    deGrom through 3 IP
    4 strikeouts
    1 base on balls
    No hits Zero
    9 pitch third inning
    On the season- 50 strikeouts to 3 Walks, BB.

    deGrom was drafted in the 9th round of 2010, and the 272nd overall pick.
    How in the hell did that happen, without anybody seeing or knowing what he had?
    Was it because he's played for Stetson University? Still...

    Those last two pitches, the 3rd and 4th, to Judge were clearly balls. He swung at the 2nd one knowing the UMP was going to call it.

    And these guys wonder why MLB is going to eliminate their jobs with an automated strike zone!

    Cole and Sandoval are hooked up in a pitching duel. Through 4 innings, Yankees have 1 hit, Angels have 3.
    That’s it folks!

    Wouldn’t you know it, two players I dislike on this team have the only 2 hits…..Hicks & Donaldson.

    Hicks drives in the Yankees 2nd run of the inning. NYY 2 LAAA 0 top 5.
    Can Cole hold Angels in check?

    Cole gives up a 3 run gopher to Ohtani…..Yankees losing 3-2….bot 6. IKF & Donaldson**make huge errors
    to extend inning and it cost Cole’s dominance over Ohtani.
    If Cole is this team’s ace, Yankees are in real trouble. He just cannot battle through
    teammates’ mistakes. He loses it.

    ** note these two were obtained from Minnesota for Kraken Sanchez & Gio Urshela.
    Thank you, Brian Trashman.

    Overall, this team has fallen in all areas.

    Yankees are losing more series since ASG. Not good heading into September.
    You cannot win games with 3 total hits!

    With a loss they will wrap up their worst month since 1991. The chances they blow this division are very good.

    Bottom of the 8th
    Holmes comes in. I can't watch this clown anymore. First pitch is 6 feet high and over the Batters head!

    Ryne Duren like wild pitch. Duren wore coke bottle glasses. What's Holmes excuse?

    Judge leads off the inning in the top of the 9th.

    Artie Moreno is one tight assed cheap owner. These Angels uniforms are Fugly, Little League type garbage. The worst uniforms in MLB and Little League too!!

    After all these years Haloes "string bean" Reliever, Herget, is harder to watch than Holmes, with his 82 mph fastball. :banghead2:. :smiley-pat:
