Severino hung at least 4 sliders right in the heart of the plate and the Twins did nothing with them

The Yankees hit a slam. We hit a 30 ft fly ball and 2 strikeouts, one looking.
We're not even playing the same game. And haven't been for 15 years.

Severino hung 3 sliders with the bases loaded. Two to Sano and one to Cave. Gotta hit the mistakes.

We suck. About 211 Ks this series.
How many 3-0 counts have our hitters had end in nothing. Their hits turn 0-2 counts into walks and hits.

This could be the most lop sided of all the sweeps in regards to run differential. Poor Rocco, now he knows.
Not over yet but not looking good. At some point the Yankees are hanging more than a run, it’s what a good O does.

He quickly moved pretty far away from the line, and stayed in. With 2 outs I would've thought he should've gone back for sure to get more time, but then also a bit closer to the line (that part possibly hindsight). I'm not sure why he was at the edge of the grass with 2 outs.J22 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 07 9:49 pmMisplay at 3rd?fightclub30 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 07 9:36 pmOdo has pitched about as well as anyone could've hoped.

I can pretty much guarantee that Sano was playing exactly where the coaching staff wanted him to. He was up on the edge of the grass because Polanco was behind 2nd base. If Sano is back at 3rd, all Gardiner has to do is touch the ball towards the left side for a free run.fightclub30 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 07 9:52 pmHe quickly moved pretty far away from the line, and stayed in.

Still can't hit. No one cares where Sano was playing. This is an offensive team that can't hit in the playoffs.

Pooping your pants with bases loaded will likely be the defining moment of this game though unless the Yankees pile it on shortly.
