Swanson takes a slider in the zone low/away for a strike FB in the same spot fouled, 0-2 Change out of the zone low away, grounder to Rizzo, he waits for Nestor, makes a good throw leading him to 1st and Nestor barely beats Swanson to 1st for out #2.

Crow-Armstrong takes a FB down and in for a strike. Takes a slider well outside, 1-1 Chases a FB well high outside middle, 1-2 Gets a 94 FB (!) above and inside middle, gets under it to center, wind brings it in and left, Judge tracks it, catches, inning over.
Top 8, 2-0 Yanks. Nifty 1-2-3 for Nestor in the 7th, just 8 pitches and 25 in his 2 1/3 innings so far. Wells, Stanton and Chisholm for the Yanks in the 8th vs. Miller.

Wells takes a sinker well up and away, 1-0 Takes another well outside, 2-0 Gets under a slider, misses even more up and away, ball 3. FB at the very edge of the top of the zone, maybe 1-2% on Gameday, outer 3rd, 3-1 Swings under a hittable FB above middle, 3-2 FB outside, ball 4.

Stanton... Slider starts inside, breaks over the inner half, 0-1 FB clips the corner away, not called, 10% on Gameday. Fb at the knees outside middle, grounder to Swanson, auto-DP 6-4-3, two down, nobody on.

Chisholm takes a slider inside, 1-0 Takes a FB in the zone down and in, 1-1 Takes a slider thigh high outside middle, must've read it as the sinker going outside, 1-2 Slider waist high, outside middle, gets under it to right center, easy play for Bellinger, inning over.
Bottom 8, 2-0 Yanks. 12 pitches for Miller in the 8th, and 18 for his 1 1/3 innings. 8-9-1 for the Cubs in their half of the 8th inning: Wisdom, Bethancourt or a PH and Happ.

Just feels like the Yanks should have a much bigger lead.

Start of the O's game was delayed by rain for about 15 minutes, but they just got underway against the Rays.

Wisdom... Takes a Fb high, inner half, 1-0 Fouls off a cutter inside, 1-1 Change tips the low outside corner, he swings over it for strike 2. Change misses 3 inches outside at the knees, he lays off, 2-2 FB below the top, inside middle, too much of the plate and he fouls it back. FB well outside, 3-2 Good change tails outside thigh high, he swings early and over it for the K, 1 down.
Yandy Diaz led off the game for the Rays with a solo HR, 1-0

Let Nestor have the 9th Boone I wonder if he will? He's throwing the ball today better than the relievers have been.

Happ... Slider hits the back door above the waist, taken, 0-1 Beats him clean with a FB at the top, inner 3rd, swung under 0-2. Change low/away, tapped off the end of the bat toward Torres, who moves in to his left, fields and flips to Rizzo, inning over.
Top 9, 2-0 Yanks. Another fine 1-2-3 for Nestor; just 14 pitches and 39 for his 3 1/3 innings. It's just me, but I leave him in to start the 9th at least. 7-8-9 for the Yanks: Rizzo, Volpe and Verdugo in the 9th for the Yanks.
