Monty's curveball is a legitimate put-away pitch, set up by a four-seam fastball. Amazing the Yankees had him throwing cutters and sliders.

Monty strands two to end the fourth inning. Does anyone have a doubt that Boone would have never used a starting pitcher on two days rest in relief? That seemed relatively common to me when I started watching baseball.

That seemed relatively common to me when I started watching baseball. Unbelievable job by Monty when he's way out of his element, working in relief. He's going to cash in big time this winter. |

Monty ends the fifth, stranding the red hot Alvarez. 2 and 1/3 scoreless relief. Stupid Cashman-Magoo.

Abreu comes in and drills another Ranger.

Watching Chapman pitch is uncomfortable for both teams.

Monty got the win tonight, which makes him 3-0 in the series. So much for not good enough for the post-season. Stupid Cashman-Magoo.

If Bruce Bochy had been with the Yankees from 2017 until now we’d have at least 2 WS Titles

So if the cheaters pull this off it's their 3rd World Series in a row. 4th in the last 5 with the only missed one being the covid season. Also, the last 7 years the only 2 teams to prevent them to go to the WS would be the Red Sox and Rays which is even more embarrassing for the Yankees they had 3 shots at them while the Red Sox only had 2 and Rays 1. Thank you baseball gods for making this not happen. |

Rangers are what the Yankees should be..signed a couple superstars a couple years ago and now it paid off. While the Yankees thought Jake Bauers would be their savior.

Sort of ironic that it didn't seem like many of the fans at all were happy we got rid of him. We (management) got what was coming for a move so stupid our non-paid fans saw it from the get go. We (management) should pay the consequences for letting a home grown talent go like that. What a TERRIBLE trade (and I and others said so from the get go.) |

If Bruce Bochy had been with the Yankees from 2017 until now we’d have at least 2 WS Titles This is Bochy's fifth pennant with three different teams. He of course has the three alternate year rings with the Giants and was the Padres manager when they were swept by the great 98 Yankee team. He's had an odd career. With all of his success, his career record is still below .500 at 2,093-2,101. There are explanations obviously. All three teams he managed had been terrible for several years before he got there, and all three started improving quickly -- in the Rangers' case immediately. The other big reason for his (barely) losing career mark of .499 is the five consecutive losing seasons he had with the Padres after his 98 pennant. Life is too short for me to study the turn-of-the-century Padres for the reasons. My guess is that the 98 team vastly over-performed and simply returned to normal. In any case, if you win five flags with three teams that were lousy when you got there, plus three rings and counting, you're on your way to Cooperstown. And Connie Mack already blazed the trail for managers getting in with a losing career record. As he also unarguably deserved. |
