Not exactly two stud pitchers in there for either team tonight. Garcia has a losing record with average ERA against the Mets. Gsellman is comin off of the DL and his stats are not impressive at all. But the game is played between the lines and the line is on the Yankees so we'll hope they'll get it done.

Still didn't see where it hit. Looked like 3rd deck almost 4th 457 feet. And Cespedes doing his clown routine in left.
Pretty well into the third deck it looked like. I switched over the SNY after he hit it and it's the longest those guys have seen one hit there.
...Judge's timing obviously had deserted him for whatever reason but as anyone who's ever played the game will tell you, confidence or the lack thereof, is a huge factor as well.
...Mess, the scary thing is that as he continues to play more and more, the better hitter he should become...I don't think he's scratched the surface of his talent or how far he can hit the ball...he's a good and well grounded youngster and as far as character, is in the mold of Yankee greats as Gehrig and Jeter. ...barring some unforeseen injury, this guy could makes us proud to be Yankee fans for the next 10 years or so.
The Mets are not playing with a full deck , Yankee offense Judges Bomb excepted is struggling to this point. Can't believe Garcia gave up that bomb with 2 gone and an 0-2 count.
...a little perspective on Judge's blast which was reportedly 457 feet, in old Yankee Stadium the fence in left CF in death valley was 457 feet...mindboggling. ...can you imagine how many HRs Mantle and DiMaggio could have hit if not handicapped by those mammoth dimensions?
Bases juiced. 1 out, best they can do is a sac fly. Sutcliffe says another great at bat by Chase Headley. Jesus Christ where does ESPN find these people.
...Garcia is a #4-5 starter, period, nothing more...shouldn't expect him to pitch like an ace...he kept the Yanx in the game.
