Cole induces a ground ball over second base to end the top of the fourth. 2-1 Yankees.

I don't think I've ever seen a play like that last one. A bunt single that was really a foul ball and the runner then getting thrown out at 2nd. A first for me, too…By the way, I like Witt, Jr.. Good D, speed and power combo. He just needs to get on base a bit more. A bit too aggressive at the plate…

Cordero streak may be ending early. Royals pitching him inside with breaking pitches that he cannot touch.

Leadoff single in the hole to start the fifth against Cole.

I don't understand the hitting philosophy of just standing at the plate, taking strikes and then going back to the dugout.

Rortvedt's body is pretty quiet behind the plate. Seems to have pretty good hands. I like that we have another left handed bat in the lineup.

Cole walks Pratto, and it's two on and no outs.

First and third, as Cole throws a ball in the dirt that bounces off Rortvedt's chest protector. Good base running by the Royals' DH.

99 MPH fastball for a strikeout. One away.

Another 99 mph fastball for the second out on a strike out swinging!

The Royals are giving us another good battle today… It's pretty sad when the Royals lineup looks better than the Yankees and they're facing Cole.
