Gameday Thread (5/23/23): Angels vs Red Sox - Canning on the mound

[Blarg]

Ask Yankee fans now and it's Ruth, Jeter, Judge, uhhhh....

[TroutField]

I hope we can find a path to the playoffs. You see flashes of it from this team but they are some consistent starting pitching and maybe 1 bullpen arm away from being able to play well enough to get there.

Joe DiMaggio probably a top 5 most famous Yankee.

He came to Japan with Marilyn Monroe in 1954.

I would’ve said Ruth, Gehrig, Mantle, DiMaggio, Jeter

I agree with this order, with Joltin' Joe ahead of Jeter. But I may be biased after singing "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? A nation turns its lonely eyes to you... woo woo woo" about 10,000 times during my life

Webb recovered from control issues, and threw some nasty changeups.

First Halos shutout against the Red Sux in 8 years?

Only one run allowed in 2 games (Loup).

6-3 in the past 9 games, all against over .500 teams

Most likely Texas has had a much easier schedule to date.

Both Thaiss and Moniak homered tonight and I just realized they were a part of the same 2016 draft. Glad to see them come into their own and contribute this season.

Fuck Texas, both Rangers and Astros, they are going to be fighting for second and third place this year.

Nice clean, clinical game. Good pitching and timely hitting. Three series in a row not lost. 

Good to see the starters putting in  efficient games one after the other. Middle relief is still a work in progress but it looks like they're getting those bridge innings more under control. 

Now keep it rolling and build on this momentum. It's still going to be a battle for playoff spots.

Wax this the best game Canning has pitched? He was great.

Red Sox finding its harder to score runs when routine fly balls to left don’t turn into doubles off the wall
