    OMG. Torres, wake th F up. I send a slow runner home with no
    Outs and judge up. He contributed to the yanks crappy baserunning. A million guys thrown out at home this season

    GT remains a disaster on the bases!

    Didn't see the 3B coach wave him...either way, it was a horrible decision.

    It makes no sense in that situation to send Torres unless he’s easily scoring. If it’s not the players themselves it’s the coaching on the bases.

    He’s painfully slow.

    What really blew my mind is for some dumbass reason, as he rounded 3B, instead of putting his head and running full out, Torres decided to turn and look to see where the throw was...this is grossly counterproductive, because anyone should know that when you do that, it slows you down even more.

    And we start leaving 3 on base. Between our poor baserunning and our 3rd base coach with bad sends all season don’t know how the hell this team wins! Blown opportunity as usual

    I hope Rojas gets his face glued to a corner in the dugout! Glue GT also, to Rojas!

    A dumb fkng attempt, with no excuses at this point or level!
    Close, NOT close!!!

    I saw that... Kind of surprised GT didn't stop and take a look and see!!

    A bit more hustle and he could have been safe, that split second of not looking around would have made all the difference!

    Rodon, that's what happens when you get way ahead of the batter and then decide to start nibbling and end up needlessly wasting 10 pitches on the worst hitter Cleveland has. 1-0. bad guys.

    Yankee pitchers do that too often. You either have a closing pitch or you don’t. Stop dancing all over the plate when you have the advantage.

    Yup, that’s what most likely cost the hand from getting in there and a run scoring. No reason to do it.

    Judge is another one. Far too many strikeouts.

    That is a BS replay call on Wells...the ball was not in the back of the glove when Wells' foot made contact with the bag.
