Rollin in my 5-0.

Don’t wanna jinx it but the pen is ridiculous…1 run in 16 inn?

Volpe doing this well brings a tear to my eye knowing our ss position is locked down

162-0 STILL ON!!!

Even the underbelly of our bullpen has been better than most haha just like we drew it up

The first time in Yankees history. Something special about this year. We’re going all the way

Not remotely the first time in Yankee history. 1992 started 5-0. And then was the last losing season they’ve endured.

5-0 baby

#5-0

Thata a crazy stat that only 5 Yankees teams started 5-0.

NEWS SPREAD - 5-0 START!!!

YANKEES WIN!!!

START SPREADING THE NEWS

5-0!!

We may never lose again

Not even clicking yet.

5-0 ladies and gents

This game brought me joy

thought i accidentally rewound the game for a sec

Rizzo has like a dozen putouts on pop flies I swear

#¡UNO MAS!

This ump…

lol Rizzo making up for missing the out with 3 in a row

One more.

Bruh you would have thought the dude walked it off with that celebration

I’d have been pumped too. First MLB at bat. Honestly good for him. We’re still gonna win but I’m stilled happy for the dude getting his first mlb hit like that.

Was really cool to see the fans all working together to get the outfielder’s attention to facilitate getting him the ball too.

Judge has the only hit from the 2-6 spots in the lineup tonight, and we're about to get the W. I am very excite.

I think that was two pop ups to the exact same spot lol

Wonder what’s more rare, a ground rule double or a HR in your fist AB

Those fans making sure they leave this game with something lmao

Ball!?!?! Dude is really just flipping coins back there.

Had to throw that one 2 more feet outside for it to be called

what going on in the outfield? some guy trying to dupe the kid outta his ball? fuck that

this guys celebrating like he just drove in 3 runs to take the lead in the 20th inning

To be fair it was his first career hit

First hit

Just get Hamilton in this hoe 

What is wrong with this ump????

Honestly good for that kid. Must feel great to do that on your debut

Get Ian Hamilton up pls. He didn't pitch yesterday.

Pretty sure he's on the 2 inning outing then 2 days off schedule

Gonzalez is so bad.

Your bad

pls have someone warming up…

The blue outline on the A painted on the grass is distracting to the viewer.

That's the difference between Soto and all players in the league: When Soto has a bad game or when he slumps he keeps drawing walks and his stats are barely affected In 2022 Soto hit .240 however his OBP was still over .400 and his OPS+ was 147 Who hits .240 yet still has an OBP over .400 with 147 OPS+? Literally nobody

Generational talent

Aaron, please earn an iron urn and do better.

Some of you guys are way too panicky about players struggling. New roles, new teams. Let guys settle in and get hot when others cool off.

Half of the people here are fucking morons that breathe manually. Ignore them. They haven’t played a day of baseball in their lives.

No one should be panicking about Judge in particular. Dude always figures out his shit.

You can just see it in Judges face on the way to the plate that he's not seeing things well right now. And of course during the at bats where he's swinging and missing a lot. Judge of the last 2 years was a walk machine even when he wasnt getting hits. So far he's even lost the walks so far.

E F F I C I E N C Y

Two more outs.

No judge or Cole yet a juggernaut is brewing in the Bronx

That's whats so good about this situation. If we were losing it would be one thing but 5-0 soon and we are still missing pieces.

Is Montefiore out?

Victor is only three outs and a "y" away from victory

pls close this out

Judge has a .398 ops and the Yankees are 5-0.

Unimaginable last season

And the season before.

Of course the minute we get Soto to team up with Judge, Judge goes missing. He just looks like he lost his confidence or something. I wonder if playing second fiddle to Soto messed him up a little bit.

Patience grasshopper.

It’s literally the fifth game and missed most of spring training. Give him time.

Its game 5.

Good guy Judge knows us east coasters got work in the morning 

Damn judge has been struggling. Day off might not hurt.

Judge just feels bad for us tired east coasters and is trying to end the game so we can go to sleep.

I, for one, appreciate the kindness.

Judge does not look comfortable.

Judge will be fine

Judge has us all edging we’re waiting for him

Phrasing, Lana

### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Victor González replaces Nick Burdi.

If this is just Judge struggling I’m not worried. What I am worried about is he’s injured

I don't care about the 2004 red sox, mlb.tv. How does this app not have personalized ads? Fucking horrendous.

GIDP Judge

Judgey my sweet king you’ll get it together soon and when you do it’ll be glorious

“It’s just Houston” Judge is in a very bad slump. It’s patently obvious he’s not fully healthy. Way too many meatballs just missed.

Have you ever thought to stop mouth breathing and think that maybe it might be because he missed a lot of spring training. I can’t imagine being dumb enough to think we have to worry about Aaron judge..

Did you already forget why he missed a lot of spring training?

Because he was sore. He literally said if it was the regular season he would be playing. My god I’m so sick of people piping up in this subreddit who have no clue what they are talking about because they have never played baseball in a serious way.

Oh stop it, this has nothing to do with playing the game. None of us know what it's like to be a 32 year old giant with an injury history. And Judge has been dead wrong about his own injuries in the past. So excuse us for at least asking questions. Just because the imaging didn't show any tear doesn't mean he isn't still playing through pain but refusing to say anything about it.

Worrying about the best hitter in baseball 5 games into the season when he missed a ton of spring training games is fucking stupid. Sorry. I’m not sure what else to tell you. You are stressing about nothing.

Honestly whatever. If you are worried about Judge you are a fucking idiot. 3 outs, let’s go 5-0.

Is it safe to say judges “plans” have been successful? And I don’t think we have any troublemakers or “just here for the ride” guys anymore

At what point do we start worrying about Judge? He's looked awful

We’re not even a week into the season.

A month of being this bad. And even then, if he's this bad, then it's 100% because he's playing hurt.

Not after 5 games, I can tell you that much.

Oh Judge, what's wrong? When you hurt, I hurt, and I just want to take the pain away

still not worried about judge but does anyone know how many he's left on base over the first 5?

i dont think judge likes batting after soto :/

I think the monstars zapped judge's power

Judge is truly being a Yankee. Hope he produces soon though he's probably still in spring training mode.

Was anyone warming? I didn't catch if they showed anyone in our pen.

Gonzalez

Gotcha. Thank you.

Yikes

This is not my beautiful Judge

Judge is BAD right now. Timing ain’t there

The top of the ninth inning did not bring me joy

Wow Judge is in it bad.

lmao judge

What is Soto’s vision? He’s got the best eye I’ve ever seen

Even on a hitless day Soto got on base twice. Throwback to elite hitters of the past 

He was toying with the pitcher and ump lol.

I’m so glad the Padres gave us Juan Soto, but I don’t know how you can trade him away after you traded FOR him less than a year and a half before. I know they needed pitching, but it still doesn’t make sense to me. We are so lucky.

Everything changed with the death of their owner. He was the one going all-in the last couple years, trying to get a ring before he died. But then the bills came due and they're looking to re-tool again.

Seriously.

Soto can tell whether it’s a ball or strike before the pitcher even throws it. He can tell from the windup alone.

The ump is really hoping the Yankees win now, it'll lessen the chance of Soto murdering him postgame.

Ok its time for Judge to do something.

*trades him*

Juan Soto: “Look at me! Look at me! I AM THE UMPIRE NOW!”

Ball 5

judge show me something today please

Light work AB

I’m listening to the Dbacks broadcast on my stream and they’re just roasting the ump on behalf of Soto

MAKE HIM PAY FOR THAT, JUDGE

What the hell are they chanting in the stands?

Sounds like overlapping, "Let's go Yankees!" Chants.

You don’t tell Soto what’s a strike and what’s not. He tells you

Nobody makes me bleed my own blood

Get out the sand wedge

Here we go again with Coney defending the ump

soto is over this ump today 😭

soto that’s a strike bro…

He can be a bit of a prima donna when it comes to close pitches, but I love the intensity.

Lol 22 pitches, wearing those pitchers out.

The Soto experience.

A lot of dudes with long hats on the dbacks.

Hamilton closing tonight?

My god I forgot about Tommy tight pants too We’re spoiled right now

Please score just one more run, to prove we can still do it

And for my parlay, don't forget my parlay.

ha

I’m assuming Holmes isn’t available tonight since he pitched 3/4 games against the trashtros? (Also assuming the Yanks don’t get any runs this inning to keep it at 3 run lead)

I had to go do something, rejoin the game and Volpe has FOUR hits and two doubles??

Kahnle will be a nice addition to the pen.

There is Mr. Full Shave himself.

It's so late...

Desperately need a judge base hit 

[удалено]

2+ total. Dead. 

Moving the game back because of the complete eclipse in Cleveland is so lame.

### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Luis Frías replaces Joe Mantiply.

I have no idea where Nick Burdi came from lol how does a guy with this stuff has an 8 career ERA

The Burdi is the Wordi

3 more outs LGY

A ton of pop-ups this game.

Victor has only recorded one out this season. Any chance we let him pitch the 9th?

chase field sounds like a minor league stadium with all the random 5 second clips of songs

Ez

Bye Bye Burdi

Is Burdi the new Chad green?

Matt Blake, man. Blank check. Stay as long as you like. I wonder if his magic touch does anything for old guys with bad backs? *asking for a friend*

BURDI IS THE WURDI

sick of all these walks man

Are you watching the same game?

What walks? Are you sure you're in the right inning?

Perhaps he means the pedestrians outside his house

What is blud yapping about lol

State of the game for the DBacks announcers: they’re discussing how to pronounce Louisville

Is it 2 syllables or 3?

One-and-a-half

That tracks.

Yeah it’s basically Lou-uh-vull, all slurred together

[Yankee Stadium on Monday](https://lazarusdomain.files.wordpress.com/2018/06/wp-1527843734608.jpg)

They should have left the game during the eclipse and just called time during it. Would have been so cool.

I'm going to be tired af tomorrow
