Durran fouls off a cutter waist high, outer 3rd, 0-1 Fb misses outside near the top, 1-1 Chases a sweeper way outside thigh hgih, 1-2 Sinker waist high inner 3rd, Duran misses under, pops it high to short right center, Soto comes racing in and across, calls off everyone, catches, inning over.
Bottom 5, 3-1 Yanks. 16 pitches for Cortes in the 5th, and 78 through 5. But he probably threw 15-20 more during the delay so he might be done.
Name that Yankee is Kevin Youkillis.

Rice gets a 1st pitch sinker up in the zone outer half, lobs it to left for a leadoff hit.

Verdugo chases a FB above the inside corner, fouls it off Takes a sweeper outside, 1-1 Sweeper drops into the top inside corner, but fools the ump, 2-1, 10-15% on Gameday Sweeper winds up down the middle, but Verdugo misses clean, 2-2 Takes his timeout. Slider outside in the same spot as the 2nd pitch, this one he chases for the K, inning over.
Top 6, 3-1 Yanks. Let's see if Nestor comes back out for the 6th. If he does, he's facing Refsnyder, O'Neill and Devers.

Name that Yankee is Kevin Youkillis. Nice! This man never misses! To be fair, I felt the need to check the 2013 roster just to make sure he had been on the White Sox the year before. So I didn't quite get it on my own.

Refsnyder takes a slider above middle for a strike. Gets a cutter in almost the same spot, fouls it back, 0-2 FB inside pushes him back a bit, 1-2 Gets under a slider for the backdoor and it hangs outside, 1-2 Cutter into the top in the middle fouled. FB below the knees, inner half, and he inside outs a hard liner right of 2nd, Cabrera gets it with a little junp to his right, 1 down.

O'neill takes a FB high, 1-0 Cutter is 3-4 inches outside waist high, but Nestor gets a big break, called a strike. 0% on Gameday and not close, 1-1 Misses a FB on the inside corner just above the waist, 1-2 Late and up with a cutter, 2-2 FB waist high, middle-out, but O'Neill pulls of it a bit and fouls it off his foot. Tries the back door with the sweeper and again, is late and well outside with it, 3-2 Sweeper into the top in the middle, fouled back. Nestor might be running out of gas here. Too many pitches that he's late and under. Bad cutter down the middle at 89, pulled sharply foul off 3rd.

Whew. Got away with that one, too. Slider for the backdoor is close, but it probably missed outside, O'Neill thought it was ball 4 and started to 1st, but it's called strike 3. 0% on Gameday, missed by 2 inches.
