Brennan PH for Kway. Sinker above and inside middle, maybe broke his bat, rolls it to the right side of 2nd, Volpe moves left from his shifted position behind the bag, fields and throws him out, inning over.
Bottom 8, 8-1 Yanks. Mayza needed 15 pitches to get through the 8th. Leave him out there? He threw 12 last night to blow that game... Volpe, Verdguo and Peraza; Morgan still in for the Guardians.

Send Mayza out there for the 9th, but have somebody warmed up. Get as many outs as you can out of him then DFA him immediately after the final out.

Johnny Cueto is back in the big leagues. He's gone 5 innings against Kansas City and given up only 2 runs.

Volpe takes an 88 "FB" well high, ball 1 Slider drops into the zone up and away, 1-1 Slider misses low/away, Volpe goes with it, grounds it up the first base line, hits the bag, Naylor way off has no play, hustles to 2nd for a leadoff double.

Verdugo takes a 93 FB way high. I knew Morgan's FB was higher than 88. FB right down the middle, misses late and under, fouls it off. What a meatball you just missed, Alex. Slider inside, chased and fouled, 1-2 Change bounced inside, good block, 2-2 Change tails outside middle, Verdugo just...stares...at...it. ꓘ, 1 down.

Rice takes a slider outside, 1-0 Fouls off a hittable slider inner 3rd, below the waist, 1-1 Change bounced, taken, 2-1 Slider below and outside middle, crushable, but he grounds it to the right side, Fry fields, flips to Morgan, inning over.
Boy, I'm glad the Yanks are up by 7, or I'd be doing a lot of %*^%%((^ and )*&%$$)_)( over "that situational hitting".
Top 9, 8-1 Yanks. Mayza staying in? I dunno. Whoever it is gets Thomas, Rocchio and Fry.

Slider in the zone down and in, taken, 0-1 Slider into the zone up and away, fouled, 0-2 Back leg slider, taken, 1-2 Slider at the top of the zone in the middle, hit hard to the right side, but to Torres, bends down, fields, throws him out.

Mayza trying to save his roster spot but the Yankees could probably use a another reliever.

Mayza it is. Honestly I'm surprised Boone made the right decision. I was all prepared to type out another diatribe about his handling of the BP. 🤓

I'm really impressed with what Nestor did today. That was big time!

Fry... 1st pitch slider above middle, hit somewhat sharply toward the 56 hole, but Volpe goes back on the grass, fields, throws a one-hopper that bounces true to Rice, he catches, game over. Yanks win, 8-1, to take 1st back from the O's.
