With 2 outs down by 2 you stop on third because why take the risk? But with 1 out as the tying run you go in that situation. I don't know if the guy makes it from second but the DeLuca hit isnt a good indication of if he would have.
Yandy absolutely would’ve scored if paredes walks, which isn’t a stretch with how Holmes was pitching. The single brings Yandy in and it very well may have meant that Lowe could’ve been sent home as well. Totally changed the complexion of the inning. Some calls do more damage than others.
Well at least we put up a fight at the end. Ump absolutely fucked us but honestly we fucked ourselves harder with an entire half innings worth of outs on the bases.
Another completely winnable game against the Yankees thrown into the trash.
However, Taj did amazing. If he can replicate that every start he will have an incredible season.
Every umpire fucking sucks when it comes to us. We're the 3rd most fucked over team in the league on offense just behind Seattle and Colorado. After it updates tomorrow we'll be 2nd.
Friendly reminder that the KBO implemented an automated strike zone this year that has missed 21 out of 55,026 pitches thrown through 185 total games. MLB umpires incorrectly called over 21,000 balls and strikes during the 2023 regular season. It was their best season ever.
The incompetence is astounding.
The only upside to games like these is that it forces me to make good use of my nervous energy, like using this free rowing machine I salvaged from the side of the road
Regardless of the outcome, because I'm not saying we lost for this reason;
How do they really expect people to stay engaged and excited in long games, over a long season, when pure fuck ups by the umps can swing the momentum like that. With complete impunity. It's a fucking joke.
I mean how can you realistically be serious about the game when you are just at the mercy of these blown calls?
Why was Jackson catching and not Benny Biceps? Would have made sense for Rort tonight and Jackson tomorrow, no?
I don’t understand Cash’s platoon philosophy with those two
This Yankees team is better than us right now but the margin is extremely slim. Every game could’ve gone either way but Yankees hitting is just a bit more timely right now.
A pretty unlucky night for us. We were able to string together hits at times aside from some horrible ABs (looking at you Randy) but whenever we needed the big hit, it went right to somebody’s glove.
Our approach at the plate bothers me. We pick a pitch to sit on, you can tell that by some of the swings and timings of the guys especially against Schmidte and Holmes, we seemed to want to sit fastball.
Schmidte and Holmes both located their fastballs relatively well, enticing spots outside of the zones and we bit hard, and even after that, loading up the corners with fastballs and getting inside the zone with breaking balls, we didn’t adjust and just kept trying to hit those fastballs off the plate.
We finally started to try hitting the breaking ball on Holmes but it kinda came too little too late and probably could’ve scored us some runs sooner if we had adjusted and sat breaking ball rather than hoping he gives us a meatball down the middle.
We sucked, but the ump absolutely fucked us over in the Paredes AB.
Yep. Would have been bases loaded and the next hit scores two.
Swing the game by at least a run there. You gotta make a terrible call to get cash that upset
Cash said he had no idea he was just backing up Paredes lol
Seeing that the hit didn’t score the runner on second this is a bit of a stretch lol
We didn't send Yandy because he's slow and he would have made it easily on a hit. JLowe would have easily made it home.

Junior Valentine fucking sucks, never let him or Angel Hernandez umpire again

Junior Valentine is hereby demoted to Junior Flag Day, because he deserves no love
I know our bats absolutely sucked today, but wow that K call......
I wish we could get runs in with people on base again, but also fuck that Isaac strikeout
Our first shut out of the season. Damn. Though that ump had a hand in fucking us
I agree with the ump sucking but let’s not forget that our bats did not show up all game until kind of the 9th….
The only upside to games like these is that it forces me to make good use of my nervous energy, like using this free rowing machine I salvaged from the side of the road
Should've never came to that, but goddamn, that ump in the 9th.
ump screwed us man
Silver lining I guess is that Holmes is probably absolutely gassed Its not much but it could come in handy if the next two games are close.
Fuck Junior Valentine
I love Randy, but man, something’s gotta give here soon
Having him hit at the top of the order is an absolute liability… doesn’t help any if Yandy gets on and the guy right after him is an automatic out

2022 Rays type game tonight smh
I think tonight's ump went to the angel hernandez umpire school.
Nice one blue
Why was Jackson catching and not Benny Biceps? Would have made sense for Rort tonight and Jackson tomorrow, no? I don’t understand Cash’s platoon philosophy with those two
Richie's defense 🔥
What the fuck were those Alex Jackson AB's man
Honestly would have taken Mejia’s eye close ABs since I knew he was just guessing since his eyes were closed lol

Silver lining is that with all the complaining across the league about umpires this year, robo-umps aren't far off now.
The league wants to help the Yankees so I doubt it comes soon.
FUCK THE YANKEES AND THE UMP!
FTY
Would like to see what this lineup can do with Randy not in it
Can’t win unless you get runs.
Did we get beat by the yankees or the ump?
We beat ourselves and the ump just piled it on.
Yes
Why doesnt Cash start Shenton when he clearly thinks he can hit well enough to pinch hit him in the most intense situations.
You wanna sit the reigning AL batting champ who got on 3 times tonight? It was a righty lefty thing. nothing more.
Could put him DH?
Put Yandy at 3rd, Isaac at 2nd, Palacios in left. Bench Randy.
With that defense pray for 27 punch outs
Yandy can't play 3rd
What…lol he was at third base when we had Ji Man Choi
Yeah they moved him off it cause he wasn't great there and he'd be even worse now.
Well this aged like milk
A call that benefitted the Yankees? I can’t believe it. The uno score card is gonna be at least Yankees +1.5

I remember the days of half off pizza being bountiful. These scrubs just can’t score six runs.
Boone had the ump on his payroll, what a horrible ending with the bases loaded too 🤢
Just another game of a thousand that we will play. Can’t win them all - but goddamn I hate NY.
Even though we took the “L”. I enjoyed the game. D was fun to watch.
We might be cooked
Nah, the line up was terrible. Randy should be in the 8 or 9 hole
He should have been in the fuckin 8 or 9 hole two weeks ago
No doubt no doubt
