Not our day today.

Vargas needs to run that play as hard as possible in a game situation.

And the Sox Need to hit some homers and before we get to Cade Smith time.

We are getting embarrassed today.

10 strike outs thru four. Braden striking out in the 4 th and failing to move the runner over to 3 rd cost us a run. Small ball would have been a better choice, like bunting .

Chase has been better hitting with no men on base and less pressure, than with RISP when he expands the zone.

Agree. Time to switch to a starter being a starter.

8 of the 9 outs by the Sox thru 3 have been strike outs. Pitiful.

That happens when you swing for the fences all the time, and refuse to play small ball when it’s needed. Sox have 8 strike outs thru 3 innings against mediocre pitching. Not a good omen. Need more contact hitters in the line up.

Why doesn’t the bench calls pitches in critical situations, Teel is a rookie for all practical purposes. Pitches to Adell had to be in unhittable spots.

Turning the Indians line up over, giving walks to their bottom hitters to get to Adell was very costly. Adell is the main threat we face.

Will should take away Teel challenge privilege on balls and strikes, unless it’s a potential strike out with RISP. HAVING NO CHALLENGES LEFT IN THE THIRD INNING OF A POST SEASON GAME IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. On top of the many Sox strike outs and walks given to the Guardians is not a good omen.

Another stupid challenge. It was not even close.

I wonder what is the Kalshi probability of Colson striking out in the game. I guess must be close to 100%.

They should kick some of the worse ones out for the next series. They need to pay a price for their poor performances.

Reminded me of the game when he struck out swinging at a ball over his head, refusing to take a walk with the bases loaded. Needs more plate discipline particularly with RISP., and not trying to hit a homer when small ball is enough by making contact and keep a rally going.

Chase has little plate discipline with RISP. Prone to swinging at fastballs over his head. Little patience.

Yankees are down 0-2 to the Rays. If we get by Cleveland,which is likely, we may be likely facing the Rays. We will be dealing with the Rays Cade Smith like closer, Bryan Baker, who has 42 saves, and a much better offense than the Guardians. Still would like our chances. Don’t stop now boys.

Two time Gold Glover. Turned out to be a good acquisition by Getz after all.

I would have rather taken by chances with Burke and his luck of the Irish. Against a better hitting team, we could have been in trouble in the bottom of the 9 th. But all that ends good it’s good for me.

I am very glad that Ant was not in CF!

He had retired like 12 batters in a row before that 2 out hit misplayed by Ant.

Taking Burke out was a mistake. He was dealing and the hit to LF should have been an out. Then you bring in a guy that pitched 4 innings a couple of days ago. Will over managing again IMO.

Second screw up late against the Guardians by Sam. In LF. Will needs to learn that defense late is more important than a runner or even a run when you are up two in the 8 th. A costly unforced error.

Yes he is.
