Nearly picked Volpe on the throw over. Then Ryan steps off. Splitter low by about 3-4 inches, 2-2 on Soto. FB just low/away, Volpe goes, Vazquez tries to throw but drops on transfer, stolen base for Volpe, 3-2 on Soto. FB on the high outside corner, swung under for the K, and it's safe to say that at 3 for his last 25, Soto is in his first slump as a Yankee.
Bottom 2, 3-0 Yanks.
14 pitches for Ryan in the 2nd, 43 through 2.
Kepler, Castro, Santana for the Twins in their 2nd.

No other games in MLB before the Phillies beat, uh, that is, meet the Mets at 6:40 in Philly Rays and Red Sox a bit later. O's and Jays have the day off.

Fb sails high to Torres, inner half, 1-0 Splitter in the zone just above the knees, inner half, 1-1 Swings under a FB above the zone, 1-2 Working high/low right now.

FB fired about 8 inches high, also a bit outside, Hanging slider up and in, Torres tries to pull it, misses under, pops to Margot in short center, 2 down.

Splitter low away, 1-1 Splitter low 2-1 FB at the top swung under, 2-2 FB up and in, hit to deep left, it clears the low fence, but a fan reaches over the railing and backhands the HR ball with his glove. Apparently that's still a HR in this park, so the Yanks lead 1-0!!
