On the O's webcast, Palmer said this about the terrible 2-1 call: "Sometimes that's a strike, sometimes that's a ball". Yes, in the sense that it gets called a strike maybe 1 in 100 times, Jim. I generally liked Palmer in the booth, but he's getting more Smoltzean as he pushes 80. His strike zone doesn't seem to match up with what I am seeing on the screen. Man, he was a thing of beauty to watch on the mound. Most fluid delivery I ever saw. And few remember that he was injured as a young player, and so badly so that he was considering switching to the infield. He got bad on the mound and the rest, as they say, is history. Or as Casey said, you could look it up… |

Sinker low outside, 1-0
FB waist high outside corner at 94, fouled off 1-1
FB at the top, just outside middle, fouled, 1-2
Sharp cutter on the inside corner thigh high, swung over, K.
That's the way it's supposed to work, Ferguson. Great job. Inning over.
Top 8, 2-0 Yanks.
The heart of the Yanks' order tonight, Trevino and Cabrera, will bat in the 8th, followed by Volpe and maybe Soto.

Curve misses somewhere, Maybe low.
Gameday seems to show it barely clipping the bottom and also bouncing.
I'll see for myself two pitches from now. 1-2

Cabrera takes two quick strikes.
Then he tries to pull a FB up and away, and also grounds out to Westburg, 2 down.

Volpe takes a FB in the zone up and away, 0-1
Chases the FB out of the zone above middle, 0-2. Sigh.
Sharp breaking knuckle curve would've been strike 3 in the zone low/away anyway, if Volpe didn't swing over it for the K.
Inning over.
Very easy 1-2-3 for Baumann, just 10 pitches and 24 for his two innings.
Bottom 8, 2-0 Yanks.
Mullins, Kjerstad and Urias for the O's against...?
