    SOTO ! After fouling a ball off his foot and staying down for 2-3 minutes, he gets back in the box and on the very next pitch, smokes a 2 run bomb.

    2-1, good guys.

    Tie game, 2-2...f'n Holmes. Boone finally gave up on him pitching the 9th, so he brings him in the 7th so he can blow it anyway.

    Holmes gets another blown save for that. Number 12 on the season which the second most in MLB history.

    Extra innings.

    Why are we still doing this silly ass rule about starting with a man on 2B in extras.

    Boone continues to be a moron. Just walk Perez instead of messing around which resulted in a wild pitch.

    Yanks walk it off in the 11th and pick up a game on the O’s. A good night for the yanks despite boone

    Always in spite of horrible decisions by Boone. The beat goes on as they go up 1.5 on the Orioles once again.

    Keeping Holmes was a major mistake, proof both Trashman and baBoone-- know nothing about pitching, one of many examples over the years.

    Yeah, from what I remember, it was implemented during the covid crisis...but it's not a crisis anymore...I guess MLB is staying with it to cut down n the length of games.

    IMO, they need to leave the game alone and go back to the way extra innings used to be played.

    Holmes has some nasty stuff but his problem is that he has no command of his stuff...can't locate his pitches for shit.
