Burdi does the job in the eighth. There seems to be no fight in the Pale Hose.

Jimenez... Fouls off a FB up and in, 0-1 Fouls off a slider above the zone, 0-2 FB 4-5 inches outside near the top, 1-2 Slider well outside and also low, 2-2 Chases a slider starting out for the outside corner waist high, turns left and down, missing outside 4-6 inches, and misses it for the K.
Nice 1-2-3 for Burdi, just 12 pitches, and 28 through 2.
Bottom 8, 6-1 Yanks
Trevino, Berti and back to the top for Volpe for the Yanks in the 9th. Do the White Sox leave in Soroka for a fourth inning? That's the burning question of the moment.
Well, maybe more like smoldering. Well, maybe, more like soup simmering with the flame on very low.

Sinker on the low outside corner for a strike. Soroka still in there. FB above the zone, popped high to Lopez on the right side for the 1st out.

That was Trevino. This is Berti. Foul tips a FB above middle, 0-1 FB outside, 1-1 Sinker well low above the middle of the plate, 2-1 Soroka stumbles as he yanks a FB waist high, outside by 4-5 inches. FB misses well high above the inner half, Berti walks.

Slider misses outside by 2-3 inches at the knees. Volpe starts but checks in time, 1-0 Sinker starts inner 3rd, runs 3-4 inches inside, Volpe chases and fouls it off, 1-1 Sinker a bit lower and 2-3 inches further inside, taken this time, 2-1 Throw over on Berti. Runs are actually down a bit this season so far. Or at least they were, the last time I check a week or two ago, Paulie.

Oooof. Takes a FB just above middle middle. On 2-1. Sigh. Starts the slider for the same spot, drops sharply, stays in the zone, Volpe spoils, still 2-2 Beast him clean with a good running Fb above and inside middle at 94, swung under for the K. 2 down.

FB outside corner above the waist to Soto, 0-1 Slider starts up in the zone, drops down and inside, 1-1 FB above the inside corner, Soto limbos back demonstratively, but it wasn't all that close, 2-1 Maybe he was leaning outside. FB outside at the top, 3-1 Soto takes his timeout, then goes after a slider on the outside corner up in the zone, misses late, but the foul pop behind 3rd gets out of play, 3-2 Berti on the go here, 3-2 2 outs..

Berti goes on the pitch... FB near the top, hammered through the open right side for a single, Berti easily to 3rd with 2 down for JUdge. Let's see if Judge can adjust to what Soroka did to him last time up.

Judge steals another one of Inger's sombreros. Can't wait until Inger gets that storm door installed.

Slider up and in, ball 1. Judge guesses FB in the middle, but it's slider going low in the zone, and he collapses onto the back knee a la Reggie Jackson on the swing and miss, 0-1 FB fouled of 1-2. FB gets a piece of the outside corner above the waist, Judge takes it for the ꓘ. Don't argue or even give that one a long look, Aaron, it was strike 3, 20-25% on Gameday.
Top 9, 6-1 Yanks. Dennis Santana coming in to try to close things out for today. He'll face Benintendi, DeJong and Lee, at least.
