Game#114 Angels/Yankees lineup/game thread

grisham flies out to pillar.

Grisham takes a FB for a strike below and inside middle.
Goes after another FB above and outside middle, lifts a fly to left for the 3rd out.

Top 2, 2-0 Yanks.
29 pitches for Daniel in the 1st; I'd say the Yanks got Gil sufficient rest. And 2 runs.
Rendon, Moniak and Drury for the Angels in the 2nd.

rendon singles in & out of volpe's glove. whatever happened to rendon.

Moniak takes a change up and away, then a slider up and away.
Swings through a slider almost down the middle, 2-1
Chases a change well outside, 2-2
Chases a slider that backed up and away out of the zone, K, 1 down.

Drury...
FB misses just inside, 1-0
Slider hangs just inside, taken, 2-0
Slider on the outer 3rd but up in the zone, pulled sharply foul, but well off 3rd, 2-1
Change in the inner 3rd, below the waist, fouled off again, 2-2
Takes his timeout
Takes a waist high slider about 6 inches outside, he started to go but the 1st base ump says he held up, 3-2
Slider not dropping today, so far, every one of them is up.
And so is that one, hanging slider fools him, hitting the outer 3rd up in the zone, must've thought it was the FB going high, taken, ꓘ, 2 down.

Adell...
Takes a change low over the middle, 1-0
Takes a pretty good slider that missed just low/away, 2-0
A slider up in the zone, swung under and pulled off, 2-1
FB misses outside above the knees, 3-1
Another poor slider hangs near the inside corner waist high and Adell pulls it hard but foul off 3rd, 3-2
Runner goes...
FB on the outside corner, hit hard to the left of 2nd and through to the outfield as Volpe playing Adell to pull. Rendon to 3rd with 2 down.
20 pitches already for Gil in the 2nd. Shaping up as a very short outing, not what you want in a double header with a rookie throwing the 2nd game.

FB JUSSSSSST a bit high to Schnaul, ball 1. Wells had to go way up to prevent the wild pitch.
Slider into the top of the zone, outer 3rd, fouled, 1-1
Bounces a FB, 2-1
Slider into the top of the zone, fouled off, 2-2
Another hanging slider in the zone up and away, spoiled.
FB in the zone up and away at 97, and Schnauel centers it, but the line drive is an at-em ball, just to Cabrera's left, he reaches and catches, inning over. Gil got lucky there.

25 pitches in the 2nd for Gil, his command is not the there, the good slider is not there and his top velocity hasn't yet shown up. Maybe a bit of rust? He hasn't pitched in 9 days...

Bottom 2, 2-0 Yanks.
Rice, Cabrera and back to the top for Verdugo for the Yanks in the 2nd.
