WIN METHOD - YANKEE BASEBALL HOT STOVE 2024 - 2025
The 2024 season has concluded, not in the way YANKEE fans were looking for. Playing the 162-game regular season and making the playoffs was really good. Winning two playoff series against two of the best teams in baseball and earning the right to be one of only two teams in the World Series was great. Losing the World Series, even maybe the way the YANKEES lost the World Series was a big letdown, and a sad way to end the 2024 season. Bad things can happen at bad times, and vice versa, it is part of baseball.
The 2024 season is now part of the past. We are now between seasons, and the hot stove is lit, as the stove is warming up. There are some big names in free agency who teams will be wooing and bidding on. None bigger than Juan Soto.
The YANKEES will do everything they can to keep Soto in pinstripes and teamed with Aaron Judge, keeping intact the most formidable one-two offensive punch in baseball. The YANKEES will also be in the market, either through free agency, trade, or from their minor league system a first baseman, second baseman, third baseman, starting pitcher, high pressure relief pitcher, and an outfielder.
From the horse's mouth, the YANKEES will be all in on reaching and winning the World Series in 2025. It's up to the YANKEE brass to put the pieces in place to make it happen, and then for the pieces to make happen on the field. Watch for a couple of internal options this season. WIN METHOD baseball will be the battle cry. Hal Steinbrenner and company will do their best; however, it always takes two parties to make a deal happen.
For you, the fans of the WIN METHOD blog and concept, this blog will hit the two billion view mark over the next two weeks. That is simply amazing. Fans read and post on this blog from all over the world, you all have made the WIN METHOD blog the number one YANKEE baseball blog in existence, bar none. Thank you for being here and all your comments. Isn't it great to have no advertisements, no sign up nonsense, no popups, and no ignorant moderators telling you what you can and can't say.
Thank you all again, for being an integral part of this blog. LETS GO YANKEES.

«Oldest ‹Older 601 – 800 of 999 Newer› Newest»Stroman kept us in the game going 4 2/3 innings, but doesn't earn the win.
I would have to say the Yankee opening series for this season, has been exceptional and a lot more than any of us expected.
Next up three game series with Arizona starting tomorrow night. Warren starting.
This three game series with Arizona will be a big test.

I think the Yankees will get swept this series with Arizona.
Happy April Fools Day !!!
AAA, you got me, good one, but you better hope Dbacks don't sweep.
Deaf, dumb, blind, and ignorant,
If anyone in the United States of America does not have the ability and common sense to realize that "demonrats" liberal progressive radical left-wing politicians, judges, and donors are criminally corrupt, liars, anti-American, and are deliberately destroying America with their polices, beliefs, comments, and deeds you are deaf, dumb, blind, and ignorant.
Wake up damn it, wake up, see the light, smell the roses, and never vote for anyone that is not a conservative or republican again. Save America and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.
AAA, not funny.

Oh yes, lets burn Burnes. If Warren does better than Fried and Stroman he will keep Yanks in game. Will he give us five good innings?
How can you not like this Yankee lineup. Burnes is a top pitcher, let's see how the Yankees deal with him.
Yanks down 2-1 after 3.
Yankees take 4-2 lead on Dback 2 run error.
Hill and Leiter crash and burn in 8th, giving up five runs putting Yankees in a 7-4 hole.
Yanks go down 7-5 as bullpen blows game.
Final. Yankees lose 7-5. Warren was very strong, going 4 2/3 innings allowing 2 runs on 1 hit, a 2 run HR. Left game up 4-2. Dominquez, Volpe, and Rice each with a solo HR. Cruz pitches 2 innings 6 up 6 down striking out 4. Then 8th inning, Hill in and gives up double and rbi single before getting a ground out. Leiter in, 2 walks loading the bases and blows game giving up grand slam, taking the loss. A should've, could've won game, BUT, Leiter failed big time when it mattered most.
OK WIN METHOD fans. >> If Williams is not on maternity leave, after Cruz pitched his 6th and 7th shutout innings and the Yanks go into the 8th up 4-2 as they did tonight, Hill and Leiter don't pitch, Weaver and Williams pitch the 8th and 9th and the Yankees likely win the game.
Tomorrow's another day. No team wins them all, ever in baseball
Paternity leave is an embarrassment. My wife and I produced six children and I never where present at any of their births. I was working. I was providing for the family. That was life then, but not anymore. It is sad, very sad. No matter, I hope the Williams family has a healthy child.
Rodon improves on first start, Yankee lineup puts up a couple of crooked numbers on the scoreboard and the Yankees win tonight. Easy peasy.

As you see every demoncrat politician lying about President Trump and what he is trying to do to save America, their made-up stories about the economy, tariffs, the economy, social security, medicare, tax cuts for the rich, etcetera, you are being made fools of by these pieces of garbage. They hate America and they think you, me, us, and we are fools and stupid. Bury these #%@^*&($^&^#. Never ever vote for anyone of them again. If you do you are brain dead and as criminal and corrupt as they are.
Today's demonrats, better known as liberals, progressives, and scum infuriate me. Every one of them are despicable liars and frauds. They all need to be wiped off the face of the earth for what they are doing to the United States of America.
President Trump at White House lawn announcing tariffs on countries all over the world. These countries rip off America with their tariffs, while America's tariffs are collecting a fraction of what other countries collect. No more, it is "LIBERTION DAY" in America. We will be collecting dollars that will make America and the American people the richest in the world.
Beware, the criminal democrats will do everything they can, via lies, physical destruction, domestic terrorism, fake stories, buying judges, and criminal behavior to prevent our country from becoming the best it can be and making the American people secure, safe, and wealthy.
We play tonite, we win tonite. Lets go Yankees !!!!
Yanks down 2-0 after first. Rodon gives up two run home run.
Yanks down 4-0 after 2.
Yankees bats feckless thru six innings, trail 4-0.
After 8 innings of nothing from the Yankee bats they score 3 runs in the bottom of the 9th on a 3 run HR from Volpe, but lose 4-3. Rodon went six innings but lost game in first two innings, allowing 2 runs in each inning. Was unhittable thereafter. Gomez went three scoreless innings out of the bullpen. Series is lost, need a win tomorrow to avoid a sweep.
Great move by President Trump. Surely shook up the world and liberal progressive demonrat America haters.
News from a demonrat bottom feeder and lowlife.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is facing accusations of hypocrisy after threatening to block Republican legislation aimed at ensuring only U.S. citizens vote in American elections.
The bill in question, Republican Utah Sen. Mike Lee’s Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, would require proof of citizenship during the voter registration process. Schumer announced his intention to filibuster the bill if Republican Senate Majority Leader John Thune brings it to the floor.
RESPONSE FROM THE AMERICAN PEOPLE -- WHY WOULDN'T ANYONE WANT NON-AMERICAN CITIZENS TO VOTE IN AMERICAN ELECTIONS ???
All I can say is "Chuck U Schumer".
Rush Limbaugh came up with names for all the democrat politicians decades ago. Shumer was one of his originals along with if I remember correctly.

We have a little juggling of lineup today. Rice at leadoff, Wells night off, Escarra catching, Judge DH, Grisham in CF, and Dominguez/Volpe flipflopped in lineup.
It's win or get swept.
Sometimes change helps, sometimes it doesn't.
Rice double to open game, Bellinger walk, Judge 3 run home run when it matters most to start the game.
Yankees with a 4 spot in first for 4-0 lead. Three on Judge HR.
9-7 Yankee win. Weaver perfect with a four out save. Carasco earned the win allowing 3 runs in 5+ innings.
Needed a win tonight and got it 9-7. Good start to season and homestand winning 4 games and losing 2. Keep it going.
Final, Yanks avoid sweep with 9-7 win. Finish six game homestand at 4-2. Carasco earned the win going 5 1/3 innings giving up 3 runs, Ottavino went 2/3 no runs, Yarborough was the disaster going 2/3 giving up 4 runs making the game close and in doubt, Leiter went 2/3 no runs, and Leiter for the save going 1 1/3 four up four down for the save. Judge 4 rbis, on a 3 run HR and rbi single. Grisham 3 rbis, on a 2 run HR and rbi double. Chisholm 2 rbi's on a 2 run HR. Off to Pittsburgh for a three game weekend series.
Not going to be a pleasant weekend in Pittsburgh weatherwise. Precipitation to some extent expected every day. All afternoon games, 4PM Friday and Saturday, 1:30PM Sunday. Tonight's game ended after 10PM, shower, eat, bus to airport, fly to Pittsburgh, bus to hotel, get a few hours sleep, have breakfast, bus to ballpark, play game a little after 4PM. All that crammed into 18 hours.

Bellinger not in lineup? Fried earns first Yankee win today? Yankee bats home runs today not in Yankee Stadium?
Bellinger because of stiff back. Boone didn't want to play him today because of the extremely short turnaround from last night.
The worm is turning. America is taking its first step in becoming great again.
If you do not support President Trump you do not support America. That makes you an imbecile. Take a long walk on a short pier.
Lets go Yankees. Wins and the WIN METHOD.
Yanks up 2-0 after 2.
OK, it is only two starts, and he's here to stay, but Fried has not overly impressed me. My impression is he think's to much. If he wins and gives quality starts, it won't matter.
Yankees lead 7-1 through 4 innings and don't have a home run. Dominguez and Cabrera batting 8th and 9th have been a wrecking ball of offense.
Yanks up 9-4 after 7.
Yankees win opening game with Pirates 9-4. Easy win.
Final. Yankees win 9-4. Fried gets first win as a Yankee with a good effort. Goes 5 2/3 allowing 2 runs on 6 hits. Cruz goes 2/3 innings giving up a meaningless 3 run HR, Hedrick goes 1 1/3 scoreless, and Williams goes a scoreless 9th. Yankees score first 7 runs without a HR, led by 3 hits from hitting star of game Cabrera with 3 hits and 4 rbi's, Dominguez 2 hits and 2 rbi's, Volpe 3 hits and rbi, and finally Judge with a 2 run HR.
Fried pitches well, lineup produces when it counts, result 9-4 wire to wire win.
Stroman starts tomorrow for Yanks if game gets played. A lot of rain forecast.
As of now it looks as if the game today will be played. Occasional showers and maybe even a ray of sunshine possible. Let's win this series today.

Boone going with his R/L lineups. Everyone hits and it works. Stroman may do well in this ballpark. A win can take series. Rain rain stay away, the Yankees wanna play.
Yanks up 1-0 after 2.
Criminal left-wing liberal judge wants Trump to bring back deported criminal illegal alien terrorist MS13 gang member to the USA. Criminals of a feather flock together.
Grisham HR for 2-0 lead in third.
Stroman crashes and burns in fourth inning giving up four runs. Yankees trail 4-2.
Yankees retake lead on a Grisham three run home run in fifth 5-4.
Yanks with a big crooked number in fifth, 6 runs for an 8-4 lead.
Yanks up 8-4 after 7.
10-4 over and out and the score of today's Yankee win.
Yanks win 10-4, clinch this series. Sweet.
Final. Yankees win 10-4. Stroman goes 4 and gives up 4 for a no decision. Bullpen, Hill, Leiter, Cruz, and Yarborough go five allowing just one hit. Leiter got the win. Offense, Grisham the star, with 2 HR's and 4 rbi's. Volpe 3 rbi's on a bags full double, Wells 2 rbi's and Goldschmidt 3 hits and an rbi. All nine hitters in the lineup either scored a run or got a rbi. Everyone got at least one hit.......How do you spell WIN METHOD.
Love seeing Volpe putting it all together so far this year.
So far, good start to the season. 6-2 is not to shabby.
The Yankees were counting a lot on the kids being productive this year and the early returns are looking great.

Playing for a sweep. Warren second start of season. No chance of a rainout.
After getting first eight outs in a row, Warren gives a walk to 9th batter, a single, a 2 rbi double, another single, then gets third out. Yanks down 2-1 after three innings.
Yankee bats floundering today for six innings. Trail 4-1 mid sixth. Three more innings.
Yankees score 3 in 9th on Peraza rbi double and Grisham 2 rbi single.
4-4 after 10. On to the 11th.
Yankees lose in 11th 5-4. Williams takes the loss.
Final. Yankees lose 5-4 in eleven innings. Pitching, Warren goes 4 innings giving up 4 runs and 6 hits. That won't cut it, however he is still a work in progress. The bullpen was almost perfect. Hedrick, Gomez, and Weaver each went two innings allowing 0 runs and 0 hits. Weaver, our closer allowed a hit in the eleventh and that lost the game. Great WIN METHOD production from three relievers. No production from the starter and closer who lost the game. Lineup. Chisholm rbi double in first inning, and from innings innings two thru eight the Yankees did nothing at all. In the ninth Peraza rbi double and Grisham 2 rbi single tie game at 4, yes, when it mattered most. In the tenth and eleventh inning the Yankees had six outs to produce when it mattered most and they lost the game.
Moving on to Detroit for a three game series M,T,W. Game times have been changed because of the frigid weather in Detroit. All afternoon games similar to those just played in Pittsburgh. Yankees named starters will be Rodon, Carasco, and Fried.
Rodon starts today. Rodon needs to step up and consistently pitch well every start. My quality start is no more than two runs for at least 5-7 innings.

Rodon pitches effectively and the lineup produces when it matters the most. That's what it take to win.
Rodon pitching a great game, but not when it matters most. Has only given up 2 hits. Those 2 hits have produced 5 runs. Yankees trail 5-1 after 5 innings.
Looks bad. Yanks in 6-1 hole after the seventh.
Final. Yankees lose 6-2. Rodon gives up all 6 runs thru six innings. No Yankee offense to speak of. Fielding and base running errors didn't help. Try again tomorrow, problem is, they will face Tiger ace.
Yanks lose opening game of series 6-2 and never really in it.

Didn't put up much of a fight today. Not a good game, but it did go fast.
A win for the team today would mean a lot. A great start from Fried would help. The lineup scoring multiple runs and producing when it matters most would help the most.

Cabrera needs to play everyday.
Come on Yanks, we need a win.
Finally after six innings of shutout baseball by Fried and the Tiger starter, and two outs in the 7th innings, Cabrera singles and Rice follows with a two run home run.
How many times do we need to see Williams fail abysmally to determine he is not a closer??????? Or not even a good reliever????????
Almost, almost, Williams did everything he could possibly do to blow todays game. A horrid effort on his part as he allowed 3 runs in the ninth inning before he was taken out with the tying run in scoring position. Thank God Leiter came in and got the third out on a popup.
Final. Yankees win 4-3, no thanks to closer Williams. Fried went seven brilliant scoreless innings for the win that Williams almost gave away. Weaver with a scoreless eighth for a hold. Williams 2/3 inning giving up 3 runs 2 hits and 2 walks earning a F for flunked. "F" is a new designation for a relief pitcher who doesn't earn a BS which is a blown save but did everything he could to almost earn the BS. Leiter in and earns the save throwing only two pitches. Yankees four run came on a Rice 2 run HR and Judge 2 rbi single.
Love your "F" for flunked. Williams really earned an F today. At least we won.
Had to love Fried's performance today for the win, that is stepping up.
Off day today, then three games with the Giants at the Stadium for the weekend.
Yankee weekend pitchers, Stroman, Warren, Rodan.
Precipitation likely a factor tonight at Stadium to some degree.

Warren starts after his awful start last time out. Will he bloom and grow? Did he learn something after the negative experience? Both to be determined. Cabrera back at third base and should just be left there. Just my opinion, but I would bat Dominguez behind Judge every game.
2-2 after 2.
Warren goes five strong innings today. Only thing he gave up was a two run home run. Leaves game with Yanks leading 7-2 and in line for a win if bullpen does its job.
Yankee bats come alive, and Warren goes five for an 8-4 win.
Final. Yankees win 8-4. Warren earns the win going five innings allowing 2 runs. Bullpen went final four allowing 2 runs, both off Cruz, unearned due Chisholm error, Weaver, Leiter, and Williams finish it off in 7th, 8th, 9th allowing nothing. Offense Rice solo HR, Bellinger rbi triple and rbi single, Goldschmidt rbi sacfly and rbi double, Volpe rbi sacfly, and Dominguez 2 rbi double. Series even at one each. Rodon starts rubber game tomorrow.
Stroman place on DL with left knee issues. Think positive.

Yankees lose a tough one 5-4. Lose series to Giants.
Final. Yankees lose 5-4. Rodon gives up 4 runs on a solo and 3 run home runs and take his third loss of the season, 1-3. Volpe error gives Giants their game winning run. Goldschmidt rbi single, Chisholm solo HR, Rice rbi single, Escarra rbi double, not enough. Yankees finding ways to lose.

Here we go again. Carrasco gives us what today? The lineup gives us what today?
What is the outcome today? Just got to keep plugging.
1-1 after four, Chisholm home run.
Yanks fifth inning, Grisham solo HR, Rice solo HR, Wells solo HR = 4-1 lead through five innings.
Yanks up 4-1 after 6.
Carrasco and Yankees win 4-1.
Final. Yankees win 4-1. Carassco goes five allowing 1 hit and 1 run earning the win. Bullpen, Cruz 1 1/3, Hill 2/3, Weaver 1 and Williams 1 for the H,H,H,S. Yankee runs all solo home runs from Rice, Wells, Chisholm, and Grisham.
Carrasco was solid tonite, one run over five innings, and was in control. Williams even with earning the save was shaky again. As the season goes on, hopefully he is not Holmes 2.

Lets go Yankees.
Yanks down 2-0 after 4.
Yanks with 4 in sixth, Wells bases loaded rbi walk and the the when it matters most bases loaded 3 rbi double from Dominguez. Yanks take 4-2 lead.
Yanks 4-2 win. Dominguez the big hit in a 4 run 6th inning coming back from a 2-0 deficit. Play for series sweep tomorrow.
Yanks win 4-2. Dominguez the hero, 3-3 and 3 rbi's.
Final. Yankees win 4-2. Fried 6 2/3 gives up 2 runs and earns the win. Weaver 1 1/3 perfect innings for the hold. Williams 1 perfect innings for the save. Wells rbi walk with the bags full, followed by Dominguez 3 rbi double for the game winning hit when it mattered most. Tough game but a win and the series is won with a chance for sweep tomorrow.
A 4-2 win. Freed with a good 6 2/3 innings allowing two runs for the win. Judge 2 hits and Dominguez 3 hits, and Volpe 1 hit. Dominguez's third hit was the big hit of the game, coming with the bases loaded, a double clearing the bases for 3 rbi's.
Schmidt with his debut tomorrow. Could make for a gigantic plus for the rotation.
Clarke Schmidt pitching well with no setbacks this season will help cover the absence of Cole.
The Yankees really dodged a bullet when the spotlight hog, phony, Soto did not accept their contract offer this winter. We built a better team with the money and have his replacement in Grisham for 1/150th of the cost. Throw in we won't have to worry about Soto when he breaks down.

Very nice game from Schmidt. Goes 5 2/3 innings and leaves with a no decision and a 3-3 tie. 73 pitches right on target for first start.
3-3 after 6.
Yankees win 4-3. Well played game. Game saving diving catch by Bellinger in right field in ninth inning. Sweep series.
Final. Yankees win 4-3. Schmidt with a strong first start of the season. Goes 5 2/3 innings allowing 3 runs. Leiter goes 1 1/3 shutout ball for the win. Cruz goes final 2 innings for a 6 out save, helped by a great final out diving catch by Bellinger. Three game sweep of the Royals.
Yanks sweep KC with 4-3 win. Now go on road to play Rays in Tampa, at Yankees George M. Steinbrenner Field, the Yankees spring training home field. Four game series with Yankee pitchers named, Warren, Rodon, Carrasco, and Fried. Thursday thru Sunday.
Of course, the Yankees won tonite 4-3, but I really enjoyed watching the game. It was well played, crisp, clean, and fast; just 2 hours and 20 minutes. Finally, Judge home run to win the game.

Yankees with a well-managed 6-3 win over Rays. Rice and Cabrera the big bats.
Final. Yanks win 6-3. Warren started and was in trouble early, went 1 2/3 innings 4 hits and a walk but only 1 run, when Yarbrough came in to get the 3rd out and the bases loaded in 2nd inning. Yarbrough went 2 2/3 innings and was also in trouble, giving up 6 hits 1 walk but only 2 runs. Then Hill came in, went 2 innings, 1 hit, 0 runs and earned the win. Hamilton went 1 2/3 just 1 hit, 0 runs and earned a hold. Lastly, Williams in for the save and closed it out with a 1,2,3 9th. Judge rbi single, Rice 4-5 with 2 rbi's, Bellinger ground out rbi, Dominguez ground out rbi, and Cabrera 2-3 with a solo HR. Enough production when it mattered by the offense, and enough production when it mattered by the pitchers for the win.
Yankees win 6-3 for a good start to the four game series with the Rays.
Rodon starts tomorrow in game 2 of this 4 game series. He is 0-3 to start season, I would bet things are due to go his way tomorrow. Lets go Yankees.
Rice alone is worth Soto going back to the inferior league for over 3/4 billion dollars. Hosta la vista amigo.

Wells out again? Rodon overdue for a win. Lets go Yankees.
Yanks up 1-0 after 3.
Yankees win a nail biter 1-0. Rodon goes six shutout innings for the win. Leiter a shutout 7th for a hold. Cruz a shutout 8th for a hold. Weaver a shutout 9th for the save. Each Yankee reliever struck out 2 batters in their inning. Lone Yankee rbi from Grisham when it mattered most.
Yankees with a 1-0 win. Grisham rbi single for the only run of the game. Yankee pitchers with shutout. Rodon 6, Leiter 1, Cruz 1, and Weaver 1 innings combined only gave up 3 hits and 2 runs for W-H-H-S.
Final. Yankees win a sparkler 1-0. Rodon pitches a six inning 0 run 2 hit gem for the win.
The bullpen finished it off with a gem of their own. Leiter one inning, Cruz one inning, and Weaver one inning each struck out two batters. Only one Ray reached base on a single off Leiter. Leiter and Cruz earned a hold, and Weaver earned the save. Yanks take first two games of this series with two games to go.
Grisham with the winning rbi and a great defensive play on a ball off the centerfield wall relaying the ball on the fly to Volpe who relayed the ball on the fly to Cabrera who tagged out the hitter at third base. The hitter was the first batter in the inning, if he had made it to third, the Rays would have had a man on third with no outs in a one run game. Likely could have turned the game into a Ray win. The play was an example of a WIN METHOD defensive play when it mattered most.
Will Carrasco repeat his last start? Hope so. Just keep the Yanks in the game, and hope they put up a couple of crooked numbers. Earn the win.

Bellinger the day off. A rested Wells in three hole. OK lineup, crooked numbers on the scoreboard is a good thing. Let go Yankees.
Lets go Yankees
Yankees lead 3-1 thru third inning.
Yanks lead 6-4 after six. Carrasco was ineffective and kept Rays in game. Now the bullpen is extended again.
Williams does it again, blows 4 run lead in 9th. 8-8 game going to little league extra innings.
Yankee with a horrendous loss. Leading 8-4 in bottom of ninth, Yank closer was an utter failure giving up 4 runs for an 8-8 tie. then Yanks in 10th fail to score with men on first and third with no out. Then Gomez gives up game losing HR to first batter he faces. 10-8 loss. Sad.
A dreadful loss, lead from first inning, all through the game, go to last Rays at bats with 4 run lead, have your closer in to get three outs, and you don't win. Goodbye Clay Holmes hello Devin Williams. Nooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Disgusted, that's all I'm going to say.
Baseball is a funny game, a team can play so hard to get a win, yet one player can give it all away so quickly. Poof, you lose.
We can still win this series. Fried starts tomorrow.
Happy Easter Sunday everyone. It would be a great morning but for Devin Williams.

Grisham lead off, nice. Rice out.
Yanks up 2-0 after 3.
Yankees hold 3-0 lead thru eight innings. Please, no Williams in ninth.
Yanks win 4-0 as Fried goes 7 2/3 shutout inning earning his 4th win of the season. Yanks win series 3 games to 1 in what should have been a four game sweep, but stuff happens.
Final. Yankees win 4-0. Fried goes 7 2/3 innings allowing 0 run 2 hits, earning the win. Cruz goes 1 1/3 innings , 0 runs 0 hits for the four out save. Grisham, Bellinger, and Wells each with a solo HR. Win the four game series.

No Rice, no Grisham. Reyes in RF. Will Schmidt better his first start, could be a big factor.
Schmidt hammered, Yank bats sleeping. trail 6-0 after six innings.
Yanks go down 6-4. Schmidt hit hard for the loss.
Final. Yankees lose 6-4. Schmidt stunk, 5 runs in 4 innings. Bullpen gave us a chance allowing 1 run in final 5 innings. Dominguez 2 run HR in 7th and Chisholm 2 run HR in 8th gave the Yankees a chance. Cabrera single in 9th after one out brought the tying in run to the plate. Wells and Judge both struck out to end the game.

Rice back, Wells out. Warren good or bad.
Warren, five innings 0 runs should be enough to win tonight. Just do it.
Yankees lead 1-0 thru five innings. Warren really good tonight. Rice first pitch of ball game HR only run,
Boone yet another blunder. Leaves Warren in for sixth. *** I said to myself take Warren out. The bullpen is fully rested. *** Nooooooooooooooo!!!
Yankees lose a tough one 3-2. Lineup fails and fails. Boone lets Warren pitch sixth inning.
With a fully rested bullpen, there was no reason in the world to let Warren start the sixth. Bad decision. Volpe error was deadly also.
Need a win tomorrow to avoid being swept.

Rodon the stopper. Lineup production. Lets go Yankees
The lineup needs much more consistency producing when it matters most. That is what made for losing the past two games with the Indians.
Yanks up 4-1 after 2.
