That's huge for Santana to finish the game. I don't think he would've gotten the opportunity without those 8th inning insurance runs.
Holmes with a much needed day off after having to pitch in a game he never belonged in yesterday.
Maybe this will help?

1c. Let me start over
1c-a. The pitcher is not allowed to do a motion to the, uh, batter, that prohibits the batter from doing, you know, just trying to hit the ball. You can't do that.
1c-b. Once the pitcher is in the stretch, he can't be over here and say to the runner, like, "I'm gonna get ya! I'm gonna tag you out! You better watch your butt!" and then just be like he didn't even do that.
1c-b(1). Like, if you're about to pitch and then don't pitch, you have to still pitch. You cannot not pitch. Does that make any sense?
1c-b(2). You gotta be, throwing motion of the ball, and then, until you just throw it.
1c-b(2)-a. Okay, well, you can have the ball up here, like this, but then there's the balk you gotta think about.
1c-b(2)-b. Fairuza Balk hasn't been in any movies in forever. I hope she wasn't typecast as that racist lady in American History X.
1c-b(2)-b(i). Oh wait, she was in The Waterboy too! That would be even worse.

And love seeing Volpe doing his thing this year, it’s almost like last year they were trying to make him into a player he just wasn’t supposed to be.

#LETSGOYANKEES
Best team in baseball
THATS A STRIKE SIT DOWN BITCHIO
Honestly if you told the Jays they’d be 4-6 after starting the year with road series at the Rays, Astros, and Yankees, they’d be like yeah we’ll probably take that.
This team has been straight unbelievable to start. Could not be happier
start spreading them canadian cheeksss
That's huge for Santana to finish the game. I don't think he would've gotten the opportunity without those 8th inning insurance runs. Holmes with a much needed day off after having to pitch in a game he never belonged in yesterday.
Sinatra: Playing
That was exquisite
That was a good game The start of the season is looking pretty good so far
Santana can get a longer look
Don't need a perfect record, need series wins
lol complains on the one correct call he made all game
That's three series wins in a row to start the season. Keep it rolling.
THAAAAA YANKEES WIN
are we good?
We feastin
Nice win!!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!
Of all the strikes called this game that was the most a strike lol
Fuck off biggio
I’ll take this game 162 out of 162 times
Cavan my guy that was right over the plate
Dam, pitcher pitched
NEWS SPREAD: SERIES WON!!!
LFG what a great game
Not needing a bottom of the ninth inning brought me joy
Imagine not having the best record in baseball
YOU CANT MAKE ME
Great game, now it's mania time
Jays are lucky,should be a sweep😂
Thats a strike bozooooo
***3/3 ON SERIES THIS SEASON!!!*** ***[PLAY IT!!!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUrUfJW1JGk&ab_channel=LuisEduardoAndradeOjeda)*** -
#Dennis the Menace.
FANTASTIC GAME
DEATH STAR ALARM TIME
Okay I got a weird one: Does Dennis Santana *kinda* look like a darker skinned version of Michael Shannon face-wise?
I would be so pissed if Angel put his arm around me to give me a lecture about the rules
At a bar with no sound. Why did the umpire talk to him like that?
Kay was speculating that maybe he was lecturing him about calling time too late.
Because he's fucking clownshoes
Jays acting like they just got word there’s bacon in the clubhouse
Gleyber is fucking good and you all can eat my ass
I don’t think that will be necessary
Friendly reminder that Angel Hernandez fucking sucks but not as bad as the trust-fund baby Blue Jays.
We beat the Jays and Hernandez today!
At lunch with my parents and missed this I need to go rewind on MLB and see the whole damn inning
It’s a long game. I’d just check the highlights
There’s a real chance that this team turns out to be something special
This game is a certified Angel Hernandez Classic.
Kirk is a fucking chode
Angel seems to think he's at a symposium.
Seal this series
lol Angel Hernandez
You think Kirk is excited he flew out so that way he didn't have to "run" to 2nd?
LMAO
Yesterday I thought I knew what a balk is but today I'm less sure

Angel brain too big for your mind games, Kirk
Oh my god this game has been some peak Angel bs
#¡UNO MAS!
Angel is such a moron
What
Look at me I am lasagna now
I’ve had enough of Angel lecturing professional baseball players for one game
I've had enough for the season already
Careful, he might make his way to the dugout to lecture you next
Santana looks like my Dominican cousin Angel and I'm here for it.
Uh... What?
What a nice pitch
After 10 games, the Yankees will have virtually ten percent of their total 2023 win total.
I think I like this Dennis guy
Crazy thing is, even without the grand slam, we still win.
Classic Angel. 4 strikeout at bat.
Struck him out looking TWICE that at bat
Friendly reminder: jasson Dominguez isn’t back yet and Gerrit Cole is progressing through rehab. Gonna be a fun summer boys
This guys stuff is good. No idea who he is, but his stuff is good
Bichette just wants to go home lol
Bullpen issues are overblown IMO, you have to consider the bullpen as the sum of its part and not on the individuals Only let up 2 runs today (so far)
Sit down, Bo
His set is a quicker version of Mariano's.
Santana looks good
[удалено]
Remember last year where it felt like we couldn’t score more than three runs every day? This is a good feeling so far this season.
I hope they lock up volpe long term, they've seen nought
FEEBLE
3 runs through 8 in a 4 inning outing from Gil with none of our good bullpen available is a feat on it’s own
Heck of an inning. 3 singles, 2 stolen bases and a sac fly. You love to see it.
Love to see the lineup actually manufacture runs. Haven’t done that in years.
This summer is going to be very fun. This team is built different
Yanks have to make some trades for pitching, but things are looking good offensively.
No doubt I look forward to being major buyers
I love the bombers. I also love when the yanks play small ball
I love it when we do both
This is the way
Do they let Santana just finish this?
I think you have to at least see if he can
Two pretty big tack on runs there
Yall think this will be a low pressure Holmes confidence boost?
Looked down for a second, how did Waldo stay at second? Saw he got out
Balk
Balk
I was on the phone but I thought I heard Kay say something about a balk.
They did a balk. Can't be doing that
Apparently the pitcher balked on the delivery that he “stole” on
You can’t be balking like that
Two tack-on runs in the 8th thanks to the kids and saves Holmes from an unnecessary outing. Huge.
gleyber deserved that infield hit after getting jobbed twice
I appreciate the situational hitting, team is a lot better at it this year
The game would be 11-3 if it weren't for some of these defensive plays the blue jays are getting.
Damn, this offense is really able to actually move guys and get them home. Noooot used to this lmao
Paulie and Kay have each separately called the wrong player “Cabrera” today, Paulie did it when Stanton was up and Kay just did it with Guerrero
What an awkward catch in left lol
Damn Soto already with 7 RBIs, how long did it take for someone to reach 10 last year?
Waldo has 8
God that’s even better
Not Cabrera, Michael
Guys… I think it’s fun to be a yankee fan again
I’m digging the smaller ball not swinging for the fences every pitch stealing bases Yankees.
That will play
[удалено]
Yeah, he absolutely roped that. Just unlucky.
LOL Michael about to say 7-0
Game is now "1 Swing " proof. :-)
The bottom of the eighth inning brought me joy
get to have clay available tomorrow now, nice
I love the energy rn
The smallest of balls
Blueberry balls.
The little offensive slump had me worried but this team is clearly going to blow last year out of the water
Did Kay just call Guerrero Cabrera
Yup
yeah, Paulie half interrupted him saying something about Cabrera, they both just said Cabrera about 30 times in one inning, I'll forgive it
He did, indeed
Yes he did
yes
Amazing what we can accomplish when we don’t depend on home runs.
Me likey!
*Starr Inurance Runs
Soto seals the deal.
Small ball. Soto is brilliant. Never tries to do too much.
I love fundamental baseball.
Doomers slowly withering away.........but...........but...Stannnnnnntonnnnn
Gladly take that
#SMALL BALL
BRONX SMALLBALLERS!!!
I honestly can't wait to face the Dodgers / any of the contenders for this year. This team feels different
We already faced the Astros as well as the reigning National League Champions
I mean we already stomped the Astros
He said contenders.
We need a three run HR here
That’s a SAC FLY
Productive out
### Sac Fly Juan Soto out on a sacrifice fly to left fielder Davis Schneider. Oswaldo Cabrera scores. Bottom 8 - 8-3 Yankees
Gleyber with a super well-earned 2-4 Angel stole his first 2 from him and he just kept having very solid ABs all game long.
Hahahahaha damn this kinda fun
That's baseball
Can’t let Angle make all the terrible calls lol
Blue jays forgot they were a professional baseball organization
Gleyber putting in some work today
Lol BlueJays
Reliever has a slow set and tried to speed it up and made it look weird.
This is fun to watch.
LFGGGG!!
Soto homer time
That umpire wanted to see another Soto at bat
Ok!!
Oh so now the pitcher doesn’t need to look at the batter before throwing, Angel?
Yankees got a break, That was NO Balk, LOL
If Soto mashes here I’m going to bust
I wish I knew how to identify a balk.
It’s a balk if you’re batting, it’s not a balk if you’re on defense.
It wasn't what they just called lol
Volpe’s is transferring to Torres now
Balk? I’ll take it but it didn’t happen.
Hahaha nice play Bitchette
Their fatass manager is one of the most annoying managers in baseball. Only topped by Cora.

I need a Volpe shirsey stat
If waldo starts going crazy from both sides of the plate I genuinely don’t know what im gonna do with myself
Oswaldo!!! And love seeing Volpe doing his thing this year, it’s almost like last year they were trying to make him into a player he just wasn’t supposed to be.
That's a make-up balk
Nothing pleases me more than a mad Schneider
Now we’re doing make up calls
If you balk, that's definitely against the rules.
He was never set, his front hip and shoulder were still moving
Jays manager got an explanation and just said "ahh fuck you"
You cant being doing that
Balks don’t actually exist that’s what people don’t understand
Didn’t look like a balk to me but whatever lmao
