Cole with a beautiful back door breaking ball to leave the bases loaded. Cole doesn't have his best stuff or command tonight, but he's making good pitches in big spots, walking the knife edge again. He needs a 1-2-3 inning.

2nd the nomination, coco, but they'll have to do it against the GOOD relievers.

Lefty Herrin in the pitch the 4th vs. the two lefties and Gleyber. Rizzo takes a FB low in the zone, 0-1 Slider low, rolled over to Gimenez, throws him out, 1 down.

Yanks into the "good" Guards bullpen now.

Cole playing with fire, but no burns so far.

Do we need Berti back in the lineup for Chism?

Torres takes a slider that ticks the bottom of the zone, not called, 5% on Gameday, Torres gets a small break to start the AB. Slider low in the zone, foul tipped, 1-1 FB below middle, fouled off. Dangit, missed a hittable FB there. Takes his timeout. Curve backs up outside, trying for the back door, taken, 2-2 Slider near where the 1-0 was, inside outside a fliner to the gap in right center, Thomas cuts it off, Torres makes a big turn, almost runs himself into a TOOTBLAN, but gets back in time. Soto up with 2 down.

Soto has never faced Herrin before. FB outside, 1-0 Sinker on the outside corner, above the waist, taken, 1-1 Disguises the ball turning his back, takes a sinker below middle middle, 1-2 Curve away, pulled to the right side, Gimenez fields, throws him out, inning over.
Top 5, 3-0 Yanks. 17 pitches for Herrin in the 4th, not sure he gets the 5th with Judge and Stanton due.
Top of the order for the Guardians in the 5th: Kwan, Manzardo and Ramirez get their 3rd look at Cole tonight.

With Judge not hitting, Soto just isn't getting the same kind of pitches to do damage.

Yanks did a little better making the Cleveland pitcher work, 4 batters, 17 pitches, a couple of batter timeouts. Cole got some rest, at least.

Don't want a ten or twelve pitch at bat.

With Judge not hitting, Soto just isn't getting the same kind of pitches to do damage. The 1-1 sinker down the middle was pretty juicy, but I think he was taking, trying to get a "book" on Herrin for when he faces him later in the series in a bigger spot.
