Swanson takes a slider on the corner away, 0-1 Curve backs up inside, makes him spin away, 1-1 Hanging cutter near middle, hit high and deep to right, Soto goes back to the track, then must move several steps to his left late, but catches, 2 down. Wind saved Schmidt there.

They're talking about Kay and Flaherty on the Cubs. The two set of announcers are right next to each other.

Crow-Armstrong takes a slider at the bottom of the zone, outer 3rd, not called, 10-20% on Gameday Takes a cutter just below and inside middle, 1-1 Weak hack at a sinker tailing to the low outside corner, 1-2 Cutter way high, 2-2 Curve down and in, fouled. Cutter waist high, outside corner again, and he swings inside/under it for the K, inning over.
Top 3, 1-0 Yanks. 14 pitch 1-2-3 for Schmidt in the 2nd, 36 through 2. Top of the order for the Yanks in the 3rd: Torres, Soto, Judge.

Torres... Cutter on the outside corner, taken, 0-1 Slider well outside, 1-1 Sinker drops into the top of the zone, in the middle, taken, 1-2 Backs the sinker onto the high outside corner, Torres flummoxed, ꓘ, 1 down, and unlike Volpe's ꓘ, that one was legit. 50/50 on Gameday.

Soto... Takes a change just above middle middle, 0-1 Cutter on the inside corner ties him up a bit, his high fly to right center is taken by Crow-Armstrong, who nearly collides with Bellinger, 2 down.

Strange, Wisdom usually only plays against lefties, maybe they know Nestor is coming in.

Bethancourt, who seems to hit only the Yankees, takes a slider outside, thigh-high. Cutter at the knees outer 3rd, taken, 1-1 Slider hangs inner 3rd, but Bethancourt misses under, fouling it off, 1-2 High curve, and the drop makes him top it toward the 56 hole, Volpe backhands, makes sure on the throw, and gets him, 2 down.

Strange, Wisdom usually only plays against lefties, maybe they know Nestor is coming in. Maybe. Wonder if they're giving Parades a mental day off to clear his head, as he's slumping. Happ... Takes a curve on the outer 3rd, 0-1 Takes a cutter outside 1-1 Slider thigh high, outside middle, grounded up the middle to the right of 2nd, between the shifted Volpe and Torres, a 2 out single to center.

Somehow Bethancourt came into this game hitting .384 as a Cub. Small sample size, but still surprising.

Busch goes after a sinker on the corner away, centers it, but off the end of the bat, the grounder goes right to Volpe on the left side of 2nd, he goes to a knee to make sure, gets up and throws a strike to Rizzo to end the inning.
Top 4, 1-0 Yanks. Not a 1-2-3, but still a good inning for Schmidt; 11 pitches and 48 through 3. Wells, Stanton and Chisholm for the Yanks in the 4th inning.
