Another good betances inning and he'll probably get a chance for a third. Now can we please score a run off friggin tomlin already
...uhh no, I didn't miss it...Gardner bluffs a bunt quite often to draw the infield in...did you miss that? ...even if he had bunted (intended or otherwise), the runner on 2B can't venture so far off the bag that he gets picked off. He has to make sure the bunt (attempted or otherwise) is safely put down...miss that too?
This home plate ump is a joke. Time after time he's calling ALL pitches off the plate balls. And it's not going both ways. At least be AWFUL for both fucking teams. Jesus Christ.
I said torreyes fucked up. But if you don't think gardner had orders to bunt there your the only one watching that thought so. My point was with a fast runner at 2nd thats scoring on any hit why throw an out away there with 3 good hitters up.
The ump has no clue where the bottom of the zone is. He's clueless out there. Yankees need to let a 99 mph fastball drill him in the neck and get a new ump back there.
Well, the umps have fucked us and someone needed to get thrown out in the dugout arguing balls and strikes because this ump has gone full retard out there.
...you're assuming something that did not happen...you can't prove a negative. And you also cannot assume how the game would or would not have unfolded if Torreyes had not been picked off. Would you have been happier if Gardner has swung and missed at that first pitch and the catcher still threw Torreyes out? ...the bunt, whether perceived, intended, or bluffed, is irrelevant.
This is the type of loss that rips the heart out of a team. Cleveland is good but they didn't deserve tonights game.
Every Yankee in their postgane comments should talk about how awful the umpiring crew was tonight. Fuck them.
At some point, umpires have got to be held accountable for awful missed calls and they shouldn't require reviews (i.e. the HBP thatbwasnt) and it's time we get some real looks at figuring out a better way to call balls and strikes cuz this is getting ridiculous these days.
Are you serious?? If the bunt wasn't on the runner doesn't take the lead he does so he makes it to third. I would have been happier if girardi didn't put the bunt on
The Yankees Pen, always praised by the experts, Greene, Robertson and Betances gave up all the runs that lead to this loss. Yankees knock out stud pitcher blow an 8-3 lead that choke. Jesus Christ.
