Rice... Takes a FB outside at the top. 1-0 Cutter at the knees, fouled, 1-1 FB misses just up and away, 2-1 Gillespie looks in, then steps off. Cutter into the zone near the low outside corner, taken, 2-2 Change starts at Rice, freezes him, tails back onto the inner half above the waist, Rice lifts the arm and takes a very hittable change for strike 3, 2 down.

Yeah, even on the big walk to help get the rally going last inning, he fouled off three hittable pitches before getting to ball 4.

Judge's 48th HR: 104.6 mph, 360 feet, 32° launch angle, a HR in 29 of 30 parks. Take that, Smotzie!! Did statcast say the one stadium that held that Judge HR?

Torres always seems so off balance

Torres gets a cutter into the zone up and away, fouls it, 0-1 Takes a slider low/away, 1-1 FB at the top, outer 3rd, big swing, swung under it, 1-2 Humps "up" to 93, misses just up and away, taken, 2-2 Change starts middle, dives low and in, but in the zone, fouled. Volpe went, has to go back. Yanks a FB about 6-8 off the outside corner, at the bottom, taken, 3-2 Arrggg!! FB down the middle at 89 (!), but he's late and under, fouls it off. Sigh.

Torres takes a FB low and outside, ball 4. 1st and 2nd, 2 down for Soto. He should be able to kill this guy.

Takes a cutter inside, ball 1. Cutter in the zone thigh high and middle, but it dropped enough so he topped it foul off 1st, 1-1 WHY IN THE HELL IS VOLPE RUNNING WITH 2 OUTS, SOTO AT BAT AND ALREADY IN SCORING POSITION??? OH, AND ALREADY UP FIVE RUNS!! Soto CHASES A FB high, fouls it off.

Takes a change up and away, 2-2 on Soto. Swings over a good cutter down and in, near the low inside corner for the K. It's not exactly fair, but I blame Volpe a bit. I don't think Soto chases the 1-1 high if he's not running. Maybe he does anyway, trying to towahawk a 3-run HR, but I dunno.
Top 7, 5-0 Yanks. Gillaspie neede 25 pitches to get through his inning.
Gimenez, B. Naylor and Freeman for the Guardians in the 7th.

Hill in the game for the Yanks. Misses way down and in with a sinker. Sinker on the corner away, hit back to Hill, he goes down to get it, turns and throws a strike to Rice, 1 down.

Freeman takes a sinker about 4-5 inches outside, waist high, gets a brutal call against him, 0% on Gameday, not close, 0-1 Sinker dives 6 inches low, chased and fouled, 0-2 FB well outside, taken, and correctly called a ball, 1-2 FB on the corner away, fouled off. Tries to tie him up with a sinker inside, clips him on the arm. HBP allows the Guardians to clear Rocchio.

Sinker to the knees outer 3rd, Rocchio pulls a sharp grounder down 3rd, Cabrera backhands behind the bag, sets and throws a strike in plenty of time, inning over.
Bottom 7, 5-0 Yanks. Judge, Wells and Stanton in the Yankee half of the 7th inning, not sure against who. If the Guardians are in fact trying to stretch out Gillispie for the rotation, he should be staying in.
