Gameday Thread Yankees @ Angels 8/31/2022 Sandoval on the mound

[Blarg]

And Sandoval almost backhanded that grounder but Fletch was there to back him up and close out the inning.

We need Tookie to come shut the door.

1-2-3 inning from Sandoval exactly what you need after getting the lead.

Briefly off topic: Congrats to Serena who advance to the third round.

[BTH]

Unless he struggles, use Sandoval up until Judge and then turn it over to a RHP for Judge/Stanton?

If so, do you go Herget or Tepera? I’d go Herget, especially since Judge hit a HR off Tepera on Monday.

[CaliAngel]

Please please please can we get rid of Duffy. For craps sake dicknose swing the bat.

[Angel Oracle]

Sandoval has really grown.

Recovered from the 5th inning to go  1-2-3 in the 6th and 7th.

[CaliAngel]

I do not agree with pulling Sandoval at all. What's he at 80 pitches?

Looks like Nevin is pulling Sandoval… I hope not.

If so, Quijada?

[Angel Oracle]

Duffy is worthless.

[AngelsMetsWS]

Let’s go Jose   

Six outs needed, let’s get three easy ones here. 

[CaliAngel]

I hope Quijada gets this done just afraid of walks or the long ball.

Sandoval seemed to keep the stankees at bay...

[CaliAngel]

Props to the fan who yelled "DJ you suck!" before the last pitch lol

[CaliAngel]

Got to get Benitendi here. Got to.

Don't let Judge be a hero.

[AngelsMetsWS]

Half way there!

insurance run would be nice. 

[CaliAngel]

GIT MORE RUNS!

C'MON BOYS!

Pffft.... Just wait til he's at 11 and 31....  

[Angel Oracle]

Good hold by Quijada

Likely Herget in the 9th with RHH’s Judge, Stanton, and Donaldson due up.

Prediction: Rizzo will pinch hit for Donaldson.

Edit: I got it half right.   Rizzo took over at 1B.

If Walsh comes back he needs to take note. Look how high Ohtani's hands are. 

No loading. No hand drop. Barely a pump.

Down to the ball. 

Get those hands up, hold them there, as high as he can hold then there, let that bat do nothing but come down to the ball.

Walsh is strong enough, like Ohtani, to let the pitcher and bat provide all the power.

[AngelsMetsWS]

Three more tough outs, let’s go!!!

[fan_since79]

Angels go quietly. So much for an insurance run.

Troutani, let's go @TroutBaseball!!
