00:03Yesterday in the Bronx, the Bronx Bombers 6, the Cleveland Guardians 3, the series
00:08now sits at 2-0.
00:09How did we get here?
00:10Obviously a game, one victory for the New York Yankees, but game number two for me was
00:14very interesting.
00:15At a low total, Dubzy, around that seven range, because you had two good pitchers that were
00:19on the mound.
00:20Now, playoff baseball, so much different, Dubzy, than regular season action.
00:24Wybie goes one and third innings pitched, five hits, two earned runs, three total runs,
00:30and only two strikeouts, and they immediately went to their closer in the second inning.
00:34Because there is no tomorrow if you're losing games to go down 0-2.
00:38Now, granted, do they have a chance to come back in the series?
00:40Yes, they do.
00:41But it just shows you those leverage situations.
00:44You don't just let your pitcher work through and say, I need five, six, or seven innings
00:48to save my bullpen.
00:49You can't do that anymore.
00:50And on the opposite side, Gary Cole, the ace for the New York Yankees, four in a third
00:55innings pitch, six runs, two earned, four walks, four K's in 89 pitches.
01:00He wasn't even that good, and quite frankly, Dubzy, if you told me Cole doesn't even get
01:04into the sixth inning, probably would think the Guardians win that game.
01:07They didn't.
01:08The Yankee bats showed up, which includes Aaron Judge, who's been MIA this entire playoff
01:12run.
01:13Three RBI performance for him last night.
01:15The Yankees pick up a massive game to win.
01:19Let's go.
01:20The pinstripes now leading the series to nothing, and it all was about Aaron Judge, all rise
01:25for the big fella.
01:26That was the first-time run of the postseason.
01:29I know we highlighted before going on a break, but really just hasn't found that spark.
01:33So maybe this is what Aaron Judge needs just to find a bit of confidence to go through
01:38the rest of this series and squaring off against Cleveland.
01:41And Donnie, you said you've got to play like there's no tomorrow, but there is a game three
01:46coming up on Thursday back in Cleveland.
01:49And when you see the amount of arms that they went through, the resources that they had
01:52to use up in a taxing outing last night, and still to come up short, they're getting best
01:57at 6-3, wasn't a great spot for the Guardians on Tuesday night, and suddenly they are right
02:02up against it.
02:03So for the Yankees going into that game, heavily favored, minus 170, minus 175, there or thereabouts.
02:09This was a commanding victory.
02:11They got off to a flyer of a start for the Guardians.
02:13They just couldn't get back in to this one.
02:16So the Overs, Cashes, the Yankees, they get the big score.
02:19Now we turn it to Thursday night there, but for the Pinstripes, Donnie, I mean, they go
02:24as far as their superstars go, the likes of Stanton, Juan Soto, and for Aaron Judge, they
02:29absolutely need the big fella.
02:31They need him to get through this series, and they're going to need him if they're going
02:34to make a bit of a tilt there at the World Series as well.
02:38So great to see the big fella find a bit of form again.
