Bird is not balanced at the plate. Too much up and down movement, a la Mark Teixeira. Needs to quiet himself and trust his hands, hit the ball where it's pitched. He's really struggling. Not sure he should be hitting third. |

Taylor robs Walker of an extra base hit and an RBI in deep centerfield.

Not sure he should be hitting third. I like Bird in the third spot, breaking up Judge and Stanton. The problem is no one has really been hot lately, other than Gardner and Andujar. Gardner is better suited to leadoff, and Andujar is just a rookie and righthanded and he's fine where he is in the order. Cashman's Guy doesn't belong there, Sanchez certainly doesn't right now, Torres has been slumping somewhat of late. So, I'd rather keep him there and let him hit himself out of it. Also, if Stanton gets hot, Bird will be seeing more fastballs. |

Sabathia gets through the fifth and plunks Harper in doing so. Not certain which was more satisfying...jj

Judge walks. Bird up, bases loaded. One out.

Nope. Bird flys out to shallow left and Stanton grounds out.

Romine throws out runner at second to end the top of the sixth!  |

Gez, the top and bottom of the Yankee lineup is better than the middle.

Bird hits into a double play because of the shift to end the seventh. He hit the ball well up the middle, just right at the fielder.
