Judge seemed to find something in Game 4 - took some tough pitches just out of the strike zone instead of swinging wildly at them as he had in the first 3 games, and then lined a single in his last AB.

Sure enough ... 2-run bomb his first time up tonight.

This could be a series yet.

That's an insult to Little League defense.

It doesnt take a genius to say, if you give the Dodgers 3 extra outs in an inning, they will cause you severe pain 100% of the time.

Yep. You can't give any team - let alone one as good as LA - 6 outs.

I'd feel sorry for Cole, but he could have gotten out of the inning with no damage had he covered first base.

Cole not covering 1st base on that was one of the dumber defensive mistakes ive ever seen.

Trying to get the out at 3rd on the error before was bad too, but Cole was just inexcusably incompetent.

Congrats to the Dodgers.

Crazy start for Cole

0 ER, was basically fantastic all game long. But an insane blunder of his own doing that was followed by two rare misses that were hit well for damage.

Ohtani should come in to pitch here.

Surprised Roberts didn't pull this pitcher.

A well-earned loss for the Yankees.

That should be a fun commute home for Yankee fans.

Yes they did. This from a Yankee fan. The Dodgers have a great team. This team reminded me of the Yankee teams in the late 90s. Even if they were behind by 5 or 6 runs, they were never out of the game. Congrats to t the Dodgers.

Tower, I don't know how much of the series you watched, but these Yankees reminded me so much of the Tigers circa 2013.  Excellent pitching, power, good offense, but horrific baserunners and a little nonchalant on defense.

If they just kept their collective heads out of their collective backsides they'd be going back to LA up 3-2.

A combined 16 walks.  I doubt Tom Emanski will be putting this on any instructional video.

Fair.  Those Tiger teams also lacked overall team speed and bullpen depth.  Good teams run up pitch counts, limiting how deep into a game that a starter can go. Those teams made the plays on balls hit to them, they just had no range.   Finally, Cabrera, Fielder, Martinez may have been the slowest trio of middle of the line up hitters ever.

Yes, the Yankees played poor defense for a lot of the year.   Eventually, weaknesses catch up to you.

Kind of interesting, 2023 Angels with 2 generational, first ballot HOF players.  Ohtani leaves in FA and wins a ring.  Trout will be 34, coming off a significant knee injury and the 3rd time in 4 years playing less than 100 games, seemingly headed to a quiet end to his career and the footnote of being the only 3 time MVP without a WS title.

MU Fan in Connecticut

I'm sorry the Yankee season is now over but they did not deserve to win.

On another note, I learned in the local paper that the now infamous Mookie Betts grabber, Capobianco, is a fellow graduate of my high school.
