That kind of play would have landed Aaron Hicks on the 60 day DL.

That would have been the ball game last year… but not this team…
BTW: I think Nestor likely bound for the bullpen when Coke and Schmidt are both back. It’s not a bad idea, another lefty in the pen…

Young inger would have had it… and thrown out that little bastard that dared to go all the way to second for a DP. That was not one of Grisham’s best moments…

Fermin gets a FB inside middle and somehow jams himself, pops it to shortish right, Soto moves closer to the line, catches, inning over.
Cortes limits the damage to 2 runs, but the Royals lead 2-0, going top 5.
21 pitches for Nestor in the 4th, and 55 through 4.
Torres, Rizzo and LeMahieu for the Yanks in the 5th.

Marsh hits Torres bat perfectly… but Torres hits an at ‘em ball…
Anyone notice Marsh is throwing a no-hitter? We should talk about that…
And now Marsh has a no-hitter through 5 innings.
NO HITTER ALERT.. !!! 🚨 🔔 🚨 🔔…

In 1964 I was at Memorial Stadium and I am one of a select few that saw Lou Piniella in an Oriole uniform…
He had slick, longish locks and cut a rather dashing figure, seemingly very aware of his stance and his “prettyness”. Boy did he change as he got older. 4-5 days scrub on a fat face… 🤓
