Game 3, Not sure what we just witnessed last night.
Yankees with ALL of the momentum. Coming home after a hearty beat down of the Red Sox in game 2 (in Boston) ...
Got their #1 pitcher Severino, going vs Bostons #4.
Fans were AMPED UP and standing on every 2 strike count that Boston hitters had.
Boston shaking up their lineup seemed like a bit of desperation to try and get something going on offense.
End result has me believing these teams switched uniforms before the game.
Yankees bats were ice cold and when they did make solid contact, was right at somebody.
NY having to go to the bullpen early and often. Not great for them going forward. While Sox relievers are mostly well rested now.
Little Brock Holt hitting for the cycle? With that monster 316 ft home run to complete it! ... LOL.
I have no idea what to expect in game 4 tonight. Sox with all of the momentum now and NY with all of the pressure.

had to be heart wrenching for the Yankees fielders watching Red Sox go round and round the bases.
Not a lot you can do if your pitching is failing. Guess you hope your manager can put someone in to keep you in the game.
... but when that failed, the last 4 innings had to be torture. "Just get this game over with" at that point.
Going to be very painful if Red Sox win and troll the Yankees club house tonight. "Love that Dirty Water ..." Ouch.

Any real baseball fan that's not affiliated with either of these teams wants a Yankees victory tonight. Do or die games, especially ones between great rivals, is the epitome of what makes this, or really any sport, enjoyable.

Listening to Red Sox radio:
“Well Sabathia had no interest in covering first base there.”

It’s incredible to me that Angel Hernandez is still a MLB umpire, yet working the plate in a playoff game. He must have nudes of Country Joe that he’s threatening to show if he’s fired. No one dares to look at those.

So Angel has had five calls reviewed in the series, four have been overturned.
After missing one at first last night he told Yankees 1Bman Luke Voit, “I’ll get the next one right.”
these Boston radio guys are all over him tonight, so awesome.

How did the Sonny Gray start go? I missed that game.

Told my wife he'd strikeout on 3 pitches and look ugly doing it. Surprised it was actually on 4 pitches. Can't believe we're stuck with this guy.

Watching the little "strike zone" corners, really didn't think he missed many strikes and balls.
Couple were on the fringe that you could argue either way I guess but he mostly called those strikes so not sure what Sabathia is complaining about..
The one bad call was by the first base umpire on the checked swing by a Red Sox batter in the 9th.
Same ump got the call right on the last play of the game though. It was so close that I thought he'd call it for the home team.
Fitting the Sox win this by the margin of a 316 ft opposite field HR by their backup catcher. I Figured it'd be the Yankees getting those cheap ash HR's in NY.
And congrats to the Yankees for winning the Stanton bidding war. ... leaving the Red Sox with the free agent scraps in JD Martinez.

Fair Tax!
Tough end. Red Sox are just better this year.
But, overall I'm good. Love the young core. Love the stars. Like the manager. Love the farm system.
Should be an interesting offseason.

For someone that doesn't live in NY or Boston, you sure seem to care a lot about what happened yesterday

What makes you think I don't live in either Boston or NY? Just because I said that no one outside of there cares?
