00:00The Yankees have Carlos Rodon on
00:03the mound.
00:04Twenty six start 13 and eight
00:06four point three four going for
00:08number 14 tonight which can tie
00:10Seth Lugo and Terrence Gubel for
00:13the A.L. little wind leader at
00:15fourteen.
00:16So it just goes to show you he's
00:17had a pretty solid year.
00:19Well it's four straight now that
00:20the Rockies have faced a left
00:21handed starter six out of the
00:23last seven.
00:26Popped up.
00:27There's Ben Rice.
00:30And he makes the play in fair
00:31territory.
00:32Now we've seen Rice at first in
00:34the original lineup.
00:36It was D.J. LeMahieu and during
00:38pregame activities D.J. was hit
00:40the face with a thrown ball and
00:42he was scratched about a half
00:43hour ago.
00:44So he was scratched from the
00:45lineup today.
00:47Rogers with a high fly ball to
00:49left center.
00:50Here comes judge for Gubel gets
00:51out of the way on one ground and
00:54a third Chisholm back in the
00:56lineup.
00:57Backhand slings it to first for
00:59a one two three easy breezy for
01:01Carlos Rodon Yankees and Rockies
01:04scoreless Yankees at the bottom
01:06of the first at the stadium.
01:07So Gleyber Torres will lead it
01:08off.
01:10Rip down the left field line.
01:11It's a basic.
01:13They don't go into the corner.
01:14Jones plays it out there.
01:16He bobbles and Torres will go
01:18second with an opening double.
01:20I don't know if it's intentional
01:21but since he's been in the lead
01:23off and he's really seen a lot
01:24of pitches really grinding.
01:26Thirty one pitches he saw in
01:27yesterday's game out of the
01:28leadoff spot.
01:29This is the seventh game batting
01:31first.
01:32Here's one Soto.
01:33It's his figurine day.
01:34So you figure he's going to do
01:35something big.
01:36The figurine he's on that back
01:37leg like he just hit one in the
01:38upper deck.
01:39So we'll see if he can do that
01:41for the fans.
01:43And he wants to walk that'll
01:45bring up Aaron Judge.
01:46So the last ninety nine games
01:48sick three seventy nine forty
01:51four home runs one hundred and
01:52five rupees five or seven on
01:53the numbers and it's slugging at
01:55eight thirty three.
01:56The next best is six thirty
01:58three.
01:59No one's ever had ninety nine
02:00games like that with those
02:01numbers ever ever.
02:03The Yankees is how you design
02:04it to on nobody else for Aaron
02:06Judge.
02:07I mean this is early quicksand
02:08for a starting pitcher judge.
02:10It's a hard right behind second
02:11position perfectly shunk flips
02:13it the second one Kovar the
02:14return throw in plenty of time
02:16Torres up to third but to away.
02:19Fly ball into center field and
02:21deep going back Doyle.
02:23He runs it down for the final
02:24out to the Yankees put two on
02:26nobody out but judge double play
02:28scoreless into the second since
02:29July twenty seven the Yankees
02:32are 15 in eight.
02:33Why do I mention that it's the
02:34best in the American League.
02:35The three to swing and a miss
02:37got him on a nice change to way
02:40the battery from yesterday.
02:43You know when you show shutout
02:44innings you're really friendly
02:46with you.
02:47You really like him to two is
02:49popped up first base side Rice
02:51in the baseman back pedals in a
02:52shallow right called off by the
02:53right fielder Soto who makes a
02:55catch on the run that ends the
02:57inning six up six down another
02:59one two three for Carlos Rodon
03:01lefty Nolan Jones a left fielder
03:03for Colorado number seven hitter
03:05gets ready to face fellow left
03:07hander Carlos Rodon's looks
03:09pretty sharp so far through the
03:10first two.
03:11This is hit hard by Jones in the
03:13Rockies have their first hit
03:14Nolan Jones with a sharp single
03:16to right in there called strike
03:19three a slider right at the
03:21Rockies Rodon mixing it up.
03:23He strikes out Jordan Beck one
03:24away in there called strike
03:26three another slider.
03:28Shunk was not expecting that
03:29pitch to strikeouts in a row for
03:32Carlos Rodon three on the night
03:33two down back to the top of the
03:35lineup that is line to left a
03:37base hit for Tovar and it's
03:39going to get all the way to the
03:40wall Jones to third and Warren
03:43Schaefer will throw up a stop
03:44sign yet another double for
03:46Ezekiel Tovar second and third
03:48two men out we're in the third
03:50nothing he's in the Rockies a
03:52check swing on the slider did
03:54he go.
03:55Yes he did.
03:55Rodgers down swinging and a
03:57slider aids Rodon through the
03:59top of the third no runs two
04:01hits two left for the Rockies.
04:03We go to the bottom half of
04:04inning number three and we're
04:05scoreless.
04:06Labor Taurus started off the
04:07first inning with a double a
04:08love.
04:11Ouch.
04:17And usually that sinker is going
04:19to end up a lefty because it's
04:20kind of breaking back into this
04:22was a sinker that Glaber fouled
04:24right down.
04:25I don't know if it was his
04:25ankle shin or foot or whatever
04:28it was.
04:29It wasn't good.
04:30Torres was finally playing at
04:32the level he probably expects
04:34of himself and the Yankees as
04:36well.
04:38You can try and shake this one
04:39off.
04:40Torres back in the box and he
04:42pops it up right side of the
04:44infield now tracking out back on
04:45the grass.
04:46The first baseman Tolia he calls
04:48a dunk and the first baseman
04:50Michael Tolia makes the catch
04:51and shallow right field to
04:52retire the side Yankees go in
04:55order against Kyle Freeland in
04:56the third home half of the
04:57fourth inning here in the
04:58Bronx.
04:59Yankees and Rockies are
05:00scoreless.
05:01Juan Soto coming up grounded to
05:04first Tolia one down Aaron
05:08Judge the hitter he's 0 for one.
05:10Howell is lined and caught by
05:13McMahon took an extra base hit
05:15away from Judge McMahon playing
05:17as deep as you could possibly
05:18play on Aaron Judge at third
05:20base and it cost Aaron Judge a
05:23base hit probably a double.
05:24So two away nobody on infield at
05:26normal depth for Stanton who's
05:28tonight's cleanup hitter.
05:29Now one might go deep to right
05:31field back back turns look see
05:33a home run for Stanton Yankees
05:36on the board it's one nothing
05:38Stanton's home run usually come
05:40in bunches twenty first
05:42yesterday twenty second tonight
05:45a big three run yesterday and a
05:47so far I think Aaron Boone would
05:50love to D.H. Aaron Judge.
05:52But all of a sudden when you see
05:54Stanton start to swing the bat
05:55you know that he can go through
05:57these hot streaks two outs two
05:59on top of the fifth one nothing
06:01Yankees count goes for the
06:02runners will go.
06:04You can see Carlos getting a
06:06little frustrated as he's getting
06:08ready to throw his 30th pitch.
06:09But you've got to remember where
06:10you are in the game.
06:11You've got a one run lead.
06:13You know you've got two outs.
06:15You know you're one quality
06:16pitch from walking to the
06:17dugout.
06:18You can get your head together
06:20job to short to get him out of
06:21it.
06:22He charges gloves where throws
06:24got him heading over no runs on
06:26a hit to left throw down five
06:28scoreless protecting a one
06:29nothing Yankee lead.
06:30Now the Rockies are an out away
06:32from getting out of this jam but
06:33the Yankees they're threatening
06:34here for more runners at second
06:36and third Torres doubled back in
06:38the first inning.
06:40Grounded to third.
06:43Bobi will score as Torres
06:45reaches on the five and the
06:46Yankees get a gift run to
06:48nothing kind of an awkward hop a
06:50big break for the Yankees.
06:52Sometimes you can just hit a
06:53clump of dirt or something but
06:55that fooled him.
06:56Carlos Rodon's giving the
06:57Yankees a solid start.
06:58He has he battled last inning
07:00but he got the big out of the
07:01one one bouncer passed by the
07:02mound.
07:03Torres the second baseman
07:04charges over throws fires the
07:06first and it's in time here in
07:07the top of the six Rockies go
07:09down one two three against
07:10Rodon he's tossed six scoreless
07:12top of the sixth coming up and
07:14the Yankees are ahead to the
07:15top.
07:16The Yankees are in front to
07:17nothing in the bottom of the
07:17sixth series opener this weekend
07:19against Colorado.
07:20George Oh for two.
07:35And Michael we talk about Aaron
07:36Jones but how much fun is it to
07:38watch him play every single day
07:41with the bat.
07:42It's just it's mesmerizing.
07:44You just you know where it's
07:45going.
07:47Forty nine on the year.
07:49Wow.
07:50Aaron Jones now on pace for
07:52sixty two back here at the
07:54stadium Soto judge and Stanton
07:56coming up against Jeff Criswell.
07:59First up Soto Yankees lead three
08:03nothing up the middle.
08:06Tovar and get Soto Soto over
08:11the wall.
08:12And here is Aaron Judge
08:14Holbrook number forty nine back
08:16in the sixth inning a deep shot
08:17to left the one one.
08:26McMahon puts it away two down
08:28here's Giancarlo Stanton is
08:30Homer started the scoring in the
08:31fourth inning to two swing and a
08:33miss strike three strong slider
08:35outside and Criswell strong job
08:38one two three against Soto judge
08:41Stanton into the night Yankees
08:43looking to close it out three
08:45nothing lead.
08:46Here comes Clay Holmes Yankees
08:47trying to win their third game
08:48in a row.
08:48Well Holmes is you know falters
08:50have certainly been well
08:51documented.
08:52Ten blown saves.
08:53That one is driven into center
08:55field.
08:56Judge is there to put it away
08:58and the Yankees win three
08:59nothing an excellent start for
09:01Carlos Rodon Stanton and judge
09:04go deep.
09:04Number forty nine for the
09:05captain the bullpen lock down
09:08the final three innings and the
09:09Yankees stay in first place the
09:11best record in the American
09:12League.
