We know which Jacob deGrom will show up, but which Tanaka will show up??? He's definitely not worth 23 Mil $$$
Vic Dibitetto- " if you stuck a bat up my ass and sent me to the plate blindfolded I would still bat 2.05 or 2.10"
Vic has a very unique way of saying things.... The kind of guy who can kick someone in the ass (or balls) and make 'em feel like they were patted on the back....
My of 14, Yankees Whitley, Mets de Grom, first assignment for both pitchers, Whitley turned dud, I think he's still a Ray. de Grom, stud, still out there. I wonder what the "Toddfather thinks of Andujar?
Gardner -CF Judge -RF Bird -1B Stanton -LF Sanchez -C Gregorious -SS Andujar -3B Tanaka -P Torres -2B
Let's hope the Yanx pick up where they left off, i.e. Shut Out pitching- Yankees pitchers shut out Toronto in 13 innings on Wednesday, marking only the second time in the last 42 seasons (since 1977) they recorded a shutout in a game that lasted at least 13 innings (also 15 shutout innings on 8/7/09 vs. Boston). Went 15-5 vs. the National League in 2017, setting a club record for most Interleague wins in a single season Went 7-3 in NL parks in 2017, winning six of their final 7G. At 227-157 (.591), have the second-best Interleague record and second-most wins all-time
Let's hope Stanton isn't sleepwalking thru this game.... Stanton is a career .409/.480/1.000 (9-for-22) hitter with 1 double, 4HR and 3BB vs. Jacob deGrom, the most HR deGrom has allowed to any batter in his career... Stanton has 21HR in 52G at Citi Field, most by any visiting player... his .613 SLG is highest at the ballpark among all players (min. 100AB)...has 4HR in his last 5G at Citi Field (since 5/6/17) and 9HR over his last 15G (since 4/11/16).
That was great. Wouldn't be surprised if kid is from around here yanks have him throw the first ball out for an upcoming game. Nothing like the enjoyment of a kid at a game and his favorite player (Judge) hits one out to win the game.
Good to see Judge discipline- laying off of that outside low slider for ball 3; and the low fastball for Ball 4. The epitome of a good Judge- discipline.
