WELCOME TO SAN DIEGO, LUIS ARRAEZ! #WALKOFF

A high-wire act for Clay Holmes, still no earned runs allowed this season (BB, K, BB, K, 1B, K)

Started the year with multiple baserunners in 3 of his first 4 games, but then he had no more than 1 baserunner in 11 of his last 12 games before loading the bases tonight

Yankees win 2-0!

-Yankees: 3rd shutout win of the season

-Yankees: 7-0 when Rizzo homers this season

-Schmidt: Longest scoreless outing of his career (6.2 IP)

-Holmes: 12th save of the season (T-most in MLB)

Yankees pitching as they start the Rays series. Bullpen in pretty good shape for this one. x.com/jamessmyth621/…

Yankees/Rays Lineups!

Yanks look to start a new winning streak tonight in the season's first visit to Tropicana Field. Fun series 3 weeks ago between these clubs, with all 3 games decided by 1 or 2 runs.

Game at 6:45 on YES, Pregame at 6

Gonna invent a time machine for the express purpose of reading the first sentence of this tweet to someone living in March 2024.

Luke Weaver of the New York Yankees was downright filthy yesterday.

1.1 IP 0H 0R 0BB 2K

Luke threw his changeup 8 times and got 3 swinging strikes, 1 caught looking, and a groundout. With over 17' of horizontal break it's effectiveness is no surprise, and it won our Pitch of the Day.

Reggie Jackson Career
139 OPS+ 174 K %+ .885 postseason OPS

Giancarlo Stanton Career
137 OPS+ 138 K %+ .963 postseason OPS x.com/jamessmyth621/…

MLB Most 4+ Strikeout Games All-Time
28 Giancarlo Stanton
27 Ryan Howard
26 Chris Davis
25 Joey Gallo
23 Reggie Jackson

Obviously skews recent in a more difficult strikeout environment, but there's Reggie!

Jackson still 728 ahead of Stanton for the career K record

Mostly dreadful, despite 20 choices!

Rangers outshot 104-64 in the last two games, won both

Was curious where this stood among MLB teams, turns out it’s 12th-best, even with a .267 win%. The MLB mark is .210, which works out to about 3-12 per 15 games. The Yankees total of 15 games scoring 3 or fewer is tied for 8th-fewest.

No perfect homestand or Astros season series for the Yankees. Tight 4-3 loss as Houston salvages a game with Hader's 4-out save. On to the Trop:

Yankees/Rays Series
Fri 6:50    Schmidt / RHP Taj Bradley (YES)
Sat 4:10   Cortes / RHP Zack Littell (YES)
Sun 1:40  Gil / TBD (YES)

Aaron Judge Longest HR (Statcast)
496 9/30/17 vs TOR (off Marcus Stroman)
495 6/11/17 vs BAL (Logan Verrett)
473 5/9/24 vs HOU (Ryan Pressly) ***
471 5/23/18 at TEX (Tony Barnette)
468 8/2/20 vs BOS (Matt Barnes) x.com/yesnetwork/sta…

Batters now 3-for-25 with 11 K's against Luke Weaver's changeup this season x.com/talkinyanks/st…

After 2 Yankees blowout wins, we could finally see the Astros' big bullpen trio with a 4-2 lead in the 6th as Abreu enters. Very unexpected start to the season for these guys:

Abreu/Pressly/Hader Combined ERA
2023   2.23
2024   5.20
