"A New York Treasure" --Village Voice

Summer Breeze

Well, that was nice, a 13-4 beatdown. Gary Sanchez hit a pair of home runs—the first one was a whiffle ball BOMB—and after 4 productive at bats (3 walks and an RBI base hit) Aaron Judge was yanked, thus ending his strike out streak. Done and done. He can start a new one tonight. Last night he was smiling. And so were we.

Tonight gives Luis Severino:

Never mind the accolades:

Let’s Go Yank-ees!

3 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 6:14 pm

Kraken go boom again!

4 seamus   ~  Aug 23, 2017 6:15 pm

SHERIFF!

5 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 23, 2017 6:15 pm

Gawwwwwd Dyam! The Kraken on the rampage.

6 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 6:25 pm

Good start for Sevvy

7 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 6:46 pm

I approve of Gary driving in runs every other inning

8 seamus   ~  Aug 23, 2017 6:50 pm

JUDGE! ALL RISE!

9 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 6:51 pm

I think Judge's slump is over

10 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 6:52 pm

Didi joins the party

11 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 23, 2017 6:59 pm

I walk away for 15 minutes and this is what happens? Maybe I only walk away for another 15!

12 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 23, 2017 6:59 pm

Didn't realize the Tigers were this bad. Poor Miggy C, hope they can trade him somewhere.

13 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 7:20 pm

Ahhh, Sevvy

14 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 23, 2017 7:24 pm

didi!

15 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 23, 2017 7:30 pm

I think it was the 63 or maybe 62 Yankees that had six different players with 20 or more homeruns. Is that still the team record? How many Yanks are in line this year to hit 20 or more?

16 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 7:34 pm

[15] Didn't 1998 break that record, or was that just for double digit homers?

Gah, that's almost 20 years ago

17 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 23, 2017 7:35 pm

Well, this is a nice game state to get back from work to find.

18 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 7:42 pm

Toe! I want gouble digits

19 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 23, 2017 7:48 pm

Where did this Kraken nickname for Sanchez come from (I'm mean I get "RELEASE THE KRAKEN!!1!", but where did it start)?

20 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 7:52 pm

Damn, there's the shutout

21 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 7:54 pm

I'm not liking this inning

22 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:02 pm

Oh man, that was a lovely changeup.

If he can start throwing that pitch like that ...

23 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:06 pm

New streak started for Judge

24 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:09 pm

Hedley joins the party. need double digits

25 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:09 pm

IF THEY CAN'T CATCH IT, IT CAN'T BE CAUGHT!

THAT'S HEADLEY!!!

26 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:18 pm

Why is Severino still in this game?

27 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:20 pm

That's better

28 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:20 pm

Well, now he's not ... though not for any really logical reason ...

29 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:23 pm

Rich Hill perfect going into the 9th against the Pirates ...

30 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:24 pm

Phew

31 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:27 pm

Uh, maybe not.

32 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:28 pm

Go Toe!

33 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:30 pm

Gouble digits! Belly to belly nights

34 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:30 pm

double digits!

35 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:30 pm

Well, it's like Gritner bunted him over ...

36 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:30 pm

GOUBLE DIGITS!!!

37 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:33 pm

I like this new score truck Detroit has made for us

38 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:45 pm

I'm liking the ks too

39 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:47 pm

brothers at 1st

40 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:49 pm

Ouch, what a way to lose a no hitter, walk off home run

41 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 23, 2017 8:59 pm

2

42 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 9:00 pm

Ok, two down, had to let the dogs in

43 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 23, 2017 9:01 pm

not a good showing by K

44 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 9:04 pm

C'mon, Kahn.

45 rbj   ~  Aug 23, 2017 9:06 pm

3 down. Night all. See you at 1 pm tomorrow

46 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Aug 23, 2017 9:06 pm

47 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 12:04 pm

House money day. But yeah, I want a sweep.

48 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 12:14 pm

And happy birthday, Brett.

49 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 12:23 pm

Damn

50 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 12:30 pm

Thanks, Chase

51 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 1:07 pm

Gary yet again

52 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2017 1:38 pm

Fuck you, Fulmer!!!

53 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 1:44 pm

bad infield defense all around today. It is a travel day.

54 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 2:04 pm

Come on, Adam.

55 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 2:09 pm

Booooo!

56 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 2:37 pm

Fight!

57 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 2:43 pm

Shit, we're going to lose the DH.

58 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 2:50 pm

Oh come on.

59 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2017 2:53 pm

Fuck you, Miggy. I've hated your fat ass for years. Since he went into that Florida bar - during spring training, methinks - waving a gun coz they wouldn't serve his drunk ass after 2am (or something like that). Entitled fucker.

60 thelarmis   ~  Aug 24, 2017 2:53 pm

Gary threw punches, then looked at his right hand. No bueno. Possible suspension and injury. Sooo dumb.

61 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 3:15 pm

Come back!

Fulmer needs to miss a start too, there's no way that plunking wasn't intentional after 4 home runs in this series.

62 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 3:30 pm

Crazy ass game.

63 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 3:42 pm

Shite

64 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 3:51 pm

You gotta eject Wilson here.

65 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 3:52 pm

Brad too

66 Alex Belth   ~  Aug 24, 2017 3:55 pm

Holy crud, what a game. Now, if only our boys have a miracle comeback in them. This one might be costly.

67 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 24, 2017 4:04 pm

Oh, right, a day game ... what'd I miss?

jk ... been following this one at work.

What madness.

68 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 4:05 pm

Worser and worser

69 seamus   ~  Aug 24, 2017 4:10 pm

Why was Judge pulled?

70 seamus   ~  Aug 24, 2017 4:10 pm

Crazy game btw. I've only seen the last inning or so though.

71 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 4:16 pm

[69] Not sure, but it could have been a double switch as we lost the DH.

72 seamus   ~  Aug 24, 2017 4:17 pm

[71] ok thanks. Seems odd to pull Judge even for a double switch situation.

73 rbj   ~  Aug 24, 2017 4:24 pm

And the Motor City Melee is over.

74 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Aug 24, 2017 7:25 pm

Wow!
Helluva game to miss. Joe G was STINK after the game, called out Ausmus.
