Obviously, I’m thrilled with the homer, but it also had a nice incidental side effect of getting John Smoltz to shut the fuck up. I don’t think he’s said a word since the Stanton homer.

Just don't give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don't think you can go wrong.

Is this a Yankee Stadium cheapie?
No, it’s just a corn dong.

I'm starting to think the MLB juiced the ball for this game

u/TheDangiestSlad New York Yankees 17d ago
Judge and Stanton don't exactly need juice
Gardner on the other hand...

hey that's Mr. "batting .350 in August" to you

u/TheDangiestSlad New York Yankees 17d ago
Gardy and Wade are having insane months, i'm having a great time as a big fan of the, uh, "underperforming" members of the team

Wade was batting .700 in August before this game, I am all aboard the Wade train

u/MattO2000 New York Yankees 17d ago
Tbf that ball seemed crush off the bat and was a wall scraper

u/takespicturesofpants New York Yankees 17d ago
I think it was off the end of the bat
41
u/MattO2000 New York Yankees 17d ago
Yeah plus I think the audio at this field tripped me up a bit
27
u/person7849 Cincinnati Reds 17d ago
I know, literally every ball that’s hit sounds like a home run

That was off the end of his bat a bit, but it's Stanton so it doesn't matter

u/chalupa_lover Tampa Bay Rays 17d ago
My initial thought too. Off the bat that thing looked like it was going to the moon. I couldn’t believe it was actually catchable.

u/Yankeeknickfan New York Yankees 17d ago
I mean gallo's first inning fly out looks like it should have gone farther

u/GreatShroomWar San Francisco Giants 17d ago
Idk I think not being in a giant bowl of concrete had an effect

u/CaptMarvel23 Los Angeles Dodgers 17d ago
Just curious what are the dimensions? Looks short all around but maybe it's because of the outfield.
8
u/AgustDrunk Chicago White Sox 16d ago
they tried to replicate Old Comiskey Park and, according to the FOX broadcast, the dimensions they went with were:
- 335’ foul lines
- 380’ alleys
- 400’ center

If the MLB thinks juiced balls make the game more exciting then why would they have gotten rid of them in the first place?

Game of the year.

u/TheOsForOhYeah New York Yankees 17d ago
Won't argue with that. Congratulations 🙂
Only way it could have been better is if Mariano Rivera had come out of the cornfield in the 9th and gotten the save

Poor outfielder got clipped at the wall. Weird they made the glass inward, causing the wood to have a lip you can jump into.

His poor neck. He jumped straight up into the top of the fence, had to hurt compressing the neck like that

Looked like he really had a chance to rob it. Anybody got the slo-mo replay?

Pops and I are lifelong yankee fans, he goes “I’m going to bed, if I do Stanton will hit a two run homer” as he’s going upstairs I just yell “OHHH” and he comes running down lmfao I swear this man knows the Yankees too well 😂

This is what they get for using Kimbrel as a setup man while he is chasing all-time save records

In honor of the Field of Dreams, I suggest we ban Liam Hendriks from baseball for life.

u/dreadredheadzedsdead Chicago White Sox 17d ago
It’s true, the whole dynamic of at bats were swinging the other way because strikes were taking an 0-2 count to a 1-1 count, or a 2-0 count.

Tony wasn’t managing tonight, he was at his brother-in-law’s funeral.
Perhaps Cairo should’ve gone with that, but Sox won anyway so it’s moot haha

Kimbrel should be the closer

Hendriks has been pretty lights out and we just brought on kimbrel. Idk why it's surprising that kimbrel hasn't taken his spot.

u/jtrom93 New York Yankees 17d ago
I'm honestly past the phase of being mad at Boone. He's a smoothbrain with the IQ of a grapefruit. He is who he is and nothing about that will change.
What's inexcusable is that Hal has effectively absolved him of any official blame for this season and pinned this train wreck of a season solely on the players... as if the players write the lineups, choose the starters, manage the bullpen, etc...
