Yankees playing behind the 8 ball. Schmidt again showing 1st inning jitters.Yankees down 2-0 bottom 2nd.
Yanks totally screwed on that challenge cleveland allowed 5 minutes after play because the scoreboard operator showed it on the big screen. Can’t fathom why hicks is playing much less in center. He’s already screwed up at least 2 balls that I’ve seen. Schmidt sucks moose dong. The kid has nothing. Yanks now down 3-2 thanks to the awful immobile Larry van over not being able to get out of the way of a throw home allowing the ricochet to score a yank run. Boone was thrown out when the horseshit challenge was allowed. Why have rules if you don’t enforce them. Francona didn’t challenge and shouldn’t be allowed 5 minutes later to challenge. Should have been told tough shit terry you waited too long like they tell other managers. This crew is an embarrassment.
Big clutch 2 out rbi hit by Cabrera puts the yanks in the lead in the 9th and then survived a very scary Chapman like save by Holmes in the 9th for the win overcoming Cleveland, and the umps and the useless hicks. Vanover got hit in the head later. Hope he’s ok but that might have been karma for his lazy lack of hustle call on the play and his illegally letting the challenge happen 5 minutes after the play.
TB winning yet again...I think Chris Sale is toast....he's just not fooling batters anymore. Edit' I meant to say NOT fooling batters anymore.
The reason DJ and Torres were out of the lne up; https://www.nj.com/yankees/2023/04/...t-with-injuries-what-happened-whats-next.html ...sigh.
