Jansen... Takes a crushable FB inner 3rd, waist high, 0-1 FB up and in, taken, 1-1 Change dives too low for a chase, also just outside, 2-1 Bounces a change outside, no chance to get a chase, 3-1 Change in a strange spot, just below middle, and he's way out front, misses, 3-2 Humps up to 95 on a FB at the top, outer half, fouled off. FB misses just high on the outside corner, doesn't chase, ball 4. 1st and 2nd, two down for Abreu. Much longer inning for Cortes than the first.

Jansen has thrown out just 7 of 51 baserunners, 14%. This would seem to be an opportunity for the faster Yanks to run a bit, if they can get on. Runners are 2 for 3 vs. Criswell.

Stanton takes a slider in the zone low/away. Takes a change low, 1-1 Takes a sinker well inside, 2-1 Takes another sinker well low, 3-1 Sinker tails well inside, he chases ball 4 and fouls it down. 3-2 Sweeper starts and hangs inside, ball 4. Leadoff walk for Stanton. He's not one of the guys I think can take advantage of Jansen's throwing.

Very chatty home plate ump. Greets all the batters.

Chisholm... Takes a slider below middle, 0-1 Swings over a change diving low in the middle, 0-2 Change to the low outside corner, spoiled. Change well low, near middle, Chisholm golfs a fliner off the end of the bat to Rafaela in center, 1 down.

Dominguez... Chases a change low, fouls it off. Ties him up with a cutter up and in, fouled back, 0-2 Change below the knees, inner 3rd, pulls it foul. Cutter barely misses high, inner 3rd, Wong yanked it toward the middle, no sale. 1-2 Change starts outside tails further away, doesn't chase, 2-2 Change tails to the bottom of the zone in the middle, fouled off. Cutter outside middle, fouled off. Missed a cookie, Jasson. Change tails toward the low outside corner, misses, great take, 3-2 Change below the knees, ball 4, but he fouls it off. That's about the 3rd change he's chased slightly low. 10th pitch.. Chases another on, closer to him, pulled through the right side for a single. Stanton to 2nd with 1 out.

Rizzo up in a DP situation. Please don't pull the change away.

Volpe... Slider outer 3rd, taken, 0-1 Nonsense, Smoltz. Jeter got better, but he was a good hitter his first two years. Sinker inside swung over. 0-2 Change inside at the knees, rolled over to short, Story goes to Gonzalez for the force, inning over.
Top 3, 1-0 Yanks. 26 pitches in the 2nd for Criswell, 44 through 2. At least they got Cortes enough rest. Jeter hit .314 with an .800 OPS at age 22 in his 1st year; .291 with a .775 OPS his 2nd year. Wish Volpe would do that.

Smoltz just said - speaking of Volpe's adjustment period - that people forget that Jeter struggled his first couple years....
.314/.370/.430/.800 Rookie of the Year

Rafaela, then back to the top for Duran and Devers for the Sox in the 3rd.
