Verdugo starting to click… Can I be a "Jeterian God"?  Soon enough, grasshopper. You must first show patience and achieve such a level… |

Cutter up and in ties up Bell, gets him to pop to Torres on the "short grass" in RF, 1 down.
That's the Nestor we know and love, he's tiring but his command even with diminished stuff still gets pop ups and flyouts.

Burger almost got to that cutter up and in, but he had to get to it early and pulled it foul

And then Nestor has him way out front with the change low/away for the K. two down.

A rare Sammy Johns reference. Minor lyrics correction Rizz -- it was "like a picture" rather than "like a princess." Thanks for catching that, Pipps! One of those daydreaming songs from my youth (8 years old). Sammy Kershaw covered it, incidentally. Yep, that was from early 75. Other songs around that time were "Kung Fu Fighting" and Bungle In The Jungle" and "Junior's Farm" and "Dark Horse" and "Pick Up The Pieces." He never had another hit song. |

Nestor at 94 pitches after seven shutout innings. Finally, a bit of a respite for the bullpen.

Sweeper in, but Anderson tops it to Volpe, who takes it to the bag, inning over.
17 pitches for Nestor in the 7th, and at 94 pitches, he's probably done for the night.
Bottom 7, 7-0 Yanks.

Verdugo starting to click… Can I be a "Jeterian God"? It's easy, jeep. All you gotta do is show up in enough game threads, and never shut up, like some other idiot who insists on "calling" the game. You'll quickly advance through the ranks and become not just a "Jeterian God" but a Ruthian Legend in just a week or two. |

Nestor grills Burger for strike three. I knew you would relish an opportunity to say that. Well done. |

As sharp as he’s been and at 7-0, I’d send him out on the short leash and let him roll… Let him prove how deep he can pitch… |
