Good afternoon,majority(99%) of my friends aren't sport fans. The two friends I had was Mets and Twins fans. Sadly, they are no longer with us. Friends always seem to call while I'm watching Yankees. When I tell them it's game on, they dismiss it continuing to chat for another 30++ mins. Thus the reason why I search for fellow fans online to share the love of baseball.
Now that I got that out of the way. Let's go Yankees. Will have to back track via dvr.

Fb down the middle, Torkelson just stares, 0-1
FB just high, 1-1
FB gets a tiny piece of the corner down and in, 1-2
Cutter outside corner, fouled
FB high, 2-2
Cutter at the top spoiled
Thigh high slider outside corner, hit high and deep to right, Verdugo takes a slightly incorrect route and it goes over his head for a two out double.
I don't think he gets it with the right route though.

FB misses low to Keith, but is called strike 1 anyway, 0% on Gameday\
Fouls of a FB outside corner above the waist
Swings over a slider down and in for the K, inning over.
Nestor K's the side in the 2nd, but 20 pitches, 38 through 2
He's also getting a lot of calls on pitches out of the zone going his way so far.
Bottom 2, 1-0 Yanks
Verdugo, Torres and Berti for the Yanks.

Sinker in the zone down and in, 0-1
Sinker in the zone at the knees, inner half, 0-2
Slider in the zone low/away fouled off.
FB outside corner, spoiled
Sinker inside, topped down 1st, Torkelson fields and flips, Verdugo slider into 1st. Verdugo thinks he's safe, but the Yanks don't challenge, 1 down.

Continuing with the Standings.
In the AL Central, the Guardians had a poor weak, going 2-4, while the Twins were winning everything in sigh. Meanwhile the Twins won all 6 games this week, have now won 12 in a row and have cut the Gauardians lead from 5 1/2 to just 1 1/2 games. The Royals went 3-3 and are now tied with the Twins for 2nd, 1 1/2 back of the Guardians (the Twins are ahead by percentage points) The Tigers have gone 2-3 this week to fall into 4th, 3 games over, 1 1/2 behind the Royals and Twins and 3 games out of 1st. After sweeping the Rays last weekend, the White Sox remembered they were the White Sox and dropped 4 of 5 this weak. They once again have the worst record in baseball at 7-26, on pace to lose a preposterous 128 games. They're already 11 games out of 4th, and 14 out of 1st.
