Cole, Bieber, deGrom with three 12 k games.

Rodon now with two.

Ties a career high...set just in April.  And 13 breaks it.   11-12 consecutive retired.

 

Also, Indians, Mariners and Rangers already no hit twice.  Record is seven in a year, already have that at quarter pole if you count Bumgarner in seven inning DHer.

Got to get Rodon the win tonight just lights out

Absolutely.

If the pitch count wasn't an issue he would have a shot at 20Ks tonight.

I am only following this pitchers duel via phone. I know Rodon has got the wicked slider and high 90s fastball with control going.

What's Montgomery got?

 

 

Breaking balls outside the zone, our worst enemy. 

LaRussa is going to pull Rodon...it seems.  Activity in the bullpen.

Abreu’s defensive improvement is crazy. If a player had made this large of an improvement on the offensive side, people would probably attribute it to PEDs. I can’t think of many guys who have grown this much defensively. He must have put so much work in.

I like taking carlos out. He doesn't need to push 110 pitches every damn start. Great game, bring in michasl 

Kopech will debut in the Bronx.  Hopefully multiple innings tonight.

Rodon is done

I can't believe they're pulling him. I don't care if Kopech is warming.

You gotta let him go out there for the 7th too. 

95 pitches. I'm fine with taking him out here. Save that arm for the playoffs. ?

10K for Montgomery

I dont think anyone can question the effort and work that Jose puts in.  He is a great mentor to the younger guys...priceless.

I also don’t hate it. Leave on an incredible high note, bullpen should be fresh..31 in 31...I’m ok with it 

Willie Adames traded by TB to MIL, opening up middle infield for Franco eventually.

It‘s still May, no need to push him

Montgomery is on pace to go at least 8.

Error!

that looked like it was going to be a bad collision.

 

lets make it hurt!

Make 'em pay!

Please give him a double, lol...E-7.

Interestingly, Gardner is the one who actually got his glove on it.

Andujar is not an OFer

I wonder if they give Vaughn a hit or not.

given rodon’s injury history, the packed schedule, and the available of a suitable replacement for multiple innings (Kopech) I don’t mind pulling him. If we can exploit their huge mistake in the outfield and put him in position for the win rn, all the better

For sure thought a knee was going to someone’s face there
