Leave it to Soto to give us the start…

Cutter outside, 3-0. Takes his timeout. FB above the waist, hit to deep right center, Soto has the green light, it drops in, and Soto runs weirdly, would have been well out by plenty, but the throw is offline and Rafaela drops it. Leadoff double, anyway.

Sounds like it was just a can of corn hit to the right part of the right ballpark. We like to them when they go our way… but that one sucked… In the old Stadium, an athletic OF, like Winfield might have caught it.

Cutter in the middle, fouled, 0-1 FB inside fouled, 0-2 Splitter low near the corner away, Judge starts, barely checks in time, 1st base ump says no swing. Humps up to 95 with a FB on the corner away below the waist, but Judge fouls it off. Sets up the cutter well out of the zone low/aay, which he throws and Judge can't check in time, home plate ump rings him up. K. Juddge now 3-16 vs. Crawford with 9 K's.

Verdugo goes after a cutter on the inner 3rd, rolls it over to Hamilton, throws him out with Soto to 3rd and 2 down.

Should’ve known this was going to happen tonight after the big offensive explosion yesterday. Crawford will end up with an 80 pitch complete game.

Volpe... FB at the top, swung on and missed, 0-1 FB near middle, Volpe misses, fouls it off, 0-2 FB at the bottom in the middle, fouled off. Slider above middle, decent swing, a fliner to left, but stays up for O'Neil, catches, inning over. Forget about 1-2 relievers, Yanks need to add a middle of the order bat. Or they can wait, fruitlessly for Stanton and Rizzo to come off the IL, and need a month to find their swings again.
Inning over. Top 8, 1-0 Sox. Crawford might be done at 68 pitches through 7 after another 14 pitch inning.
Abreu, Smith and Rafaela for the Sox in the 8th, almost certainly vs. Weaver.

Judge struggling right now. Hasn't done anything this whole series and I don't think he did much during the Reds series. We need him to show up after a lead off double... Also Verdugo...

Should’ve known this was going to happen tonight after the big offensive explosion yesterday. Crawford will end up with an 80 pitch complete game. He's not going to be allowed to go 9. He was shaking hands in the dugout between innings and repeatedly humped up to 94-5 to get through the 7th.

Volpe hit it pretty hard but it hung up. Judge's AB killed the inning.

Again a bit under a FB, misses high, and it's a 3-2 count Takes his timeout. 95 FB above and outside middle with decent carry, Abreu swings under for the K, 1 down.
