Baez takes a sinker on the low outside corner, 0-1
Flails wildly on a slider well out of the zone as McKinstry steals 2nd, 0-2
Then swing on even worse slider, a Stantonian chase is strike 3. Inning over.

Bottom 2, 0-0.
15 pitches in the 2nd for Stroman, 29 through 2.

Stanton, Rizzo and Torres for the Yanks in the 2nd.

Stanton takes a sinker thigh high, inside corner, 0-1
Slider just outside at the knees, 1-1
Sinker runs well inside, 2-1
Misses a waist high slider inner 3rd, 2-2
Barely checks on a bad slider outside, 3-2
Then misses a FB up and in on the corner, K, 1 down.

Slider well low/away, 1-0 on Torres
Sinker is 2-3 inches low, and called strike 1 anyway, bad call. 0% on Gameday
Sinker at the knees, 1-2
Sinker tries for the backdoor, stays outside 4-5 inches, 2-2
Bounced change to which Kay says "just missed" Really, Mikey? 3-2
Sinker below the outside corner, Torres stays down and on it, slaps it through the right side for a 2 out single.

Wells...
Sinker is low on the outer 3rd, about 2 inches low, but called strike one anyway. Another bad call.
If this ump is going to give one of those against every hitter, it's a long night for the Yanks.
Fb near middle, but Wells misses, hits a fliner to Wencel Perez in center, inning over.

Top 3, 0-0.
19 pitches in the 2nd for Olson, 38 through 2.

Rogers leads off the 3rd, then back to the top for Greene and Canha.

The only thing I could find on Wencel Perez was a 2022 scouting report on him from Longerhagen at Fangra[hs, which I'll get into in a moment.

Rogers takes a strike, then grounds out to Volpe, 1 down.

Greene takes a cutter for a strike, a splitter outside, a splitter low, and a sinker inside to work it to 3-1, then he inside outside a sinker down and in, lines it to left for a 1 out single.
