This is more of what Judge and Rizzo are capable of doing - those numbers are starting to climb. Rizzo now with 6 homers and 20 RBI.

None of the other AL East teams are underway yet. Red Sox-Twins in Fenway is up first, about 10 minutes from now.
Rizzo' 6th HR: 102 mph, 411 feet, 29º launch angle, a HR in all 30 parks.

Slider for a strike.
Misses two high with two sinkers, then outside with a cutter.
Cutter on the outer 3rd is strike 2
Bad slider near middle is lined to right for a hit, Soto cuts it off and holds Perez to a single.

Athletes get a procedure called "cupping," which is kind of like a massage therapy to improve blood flow to sore or injured areas. It leaves hickey-type of marks. Oh. So the demon thing is just a rumor? I was thinking about getting it done. I’ll just keep my demons then. It’s not so bad, one of them does windows.., "If I exorcise my devils, my angels may leave, too..." Tom Waits: "Please Call Me, Baby" The evening fell just like a star Left a trail behind You spit as you slammed out the door If this is love we're crazy As we fight like cats and dogs But I just know there's got to be more [CHORUS] So please call me, baby Wherever you are It's too cold to be out walking in the streets We do crazy things when we're wounded Everyone's a bit insane I don't want you catching your death of cold Out walking in the rain And I admit that I ain't no angel I admit that I ain't no saint I'm selfish and I'm cruel but you're blind If I exorcise my devils Well my angels may leave too When they leave they're so hard to find [CHORUS] And we're always at each other's throats You know it drives me up the wall But most of the time I'm just blowing off steam And I wish to God you'd leave me Baby I wish to God you'd stay Life's so different than it is in your dreams |

Flies open and misses up and away with a sinker.
Slider barely hits the back door for a strike
Sinker misses high, but at least that one was above the middle and not outside, 2-1 on Carpenter.
Hanging slider near middle, but Carpenter misses under and late, pops high to Verdugo in medium left, 1 down.
Schmidt got away with a BAD slider there.

Slider starts inside, then breaks over the inside corner for a strike to Vierling.
Good slider starts in the middle, breaks to the low outside corner, Vierling misses it 0-2
Finally hits the zone with a sinker, but it's a bad one, waist high, inner 3rd, and he inside outside it to the corner in right, kicks around the corner a bit, goes for a standup RBI triple for Vierling and it's a 5-2 game.
1 out, man on 3rd for Keith.

What's with the dark circles on his arm, and looked like he had one on his neck too? That's the suction therapy that athletes are doing now. I think it helps with circulation and recovery, and you'll see them a lot during the Olympics. Opps, I just saw that Rizz already answered you. |

Vierling has had some big hits against the Yankees this season.

Curve bounced, 1-0
Slider misses well low, 2-0. Schmidt looked great the last two innings, but he seems to have lost his slot/release point.
Chases a cutter well inside, a gift for Schmidt, 1-2
Chases another cutter inside and fouls it off himself, 2-2. Should've walked already.

Back leg curve almost hits him on the back leg, 3-2
Cutter inside corner jams Keith a bit, and he might've broken his bat, but the fliner goes right to Soto, his throw home isn't nearly in time, sac fly makes it 5-3 Yanks.
And seeing: in play, run(s) on Gameday in that situation is very stressful. Could be anything up to a 3 run HR.

Fb down the middle, swung on and missed
Slider outside, 1-1
Cutter high, 2-1
Cutter in the zone low, cut on and missed, 2-2
Cutter in the zone low, this one is taken for the ꓘ, inning over.
No shutdown inning for Schmidt, the Tigers strike back for two, the key blow the RBI triple by Vierling in the middle of that rally.
Bottom 4, 5-3 and the Yanks' offense can't rest on its "laurels' at this point.
24 pitches for Schmidt in the 4th, and 72 through 4, despite back to back 1-2-3's in the 2nd and 3rd. And somehow, it's still a mystery why he can't get through 6 innings.
Trevino, Cabrera and back to the top for Volpe

Trevino takes a strike, then a splitter low. 1-1
Splitter low near the outside corner, 2-1
Slider into the top of the zone, lined up the middle for a leadoff single. Good hitting there by Jose.

Thought we might have an easy one but Schmidt allows them to get back in the game. His command hurt him that inning.

Splitter low, 1-0 on Cabrera
Tries to take a page from Verdugo, squares well, but jabs at the pitch, bunts it foul
Golfs a splitter low in the zone, the sinking fliner to right, but carpenter makes the sliding catch, 1 down
As a quick guess: Matt Nokes for the Name that Yankee? Or was he gone by 1994?
