It did. I checked the score around 6 p.m. Glad they bounced back for Evil Empire.

I learned the game thread etiquette from you, Jon. It’s all about karma, good hitting, pitching and fielding!

Zack Wheeler vs. Jordan Montgomery in the 4:05 p.m. opener in Philly. Yanks are the home team. Seven innings! Then at 7:05 comes the nightcap. Philly sends its ace, Aaron Nola, against TBD. This would be a great time to bring up Clark Schmidt from Scranton. But that seems unlikely. Yanks have...

ESPN now listing Monty and TBD for Wednesday. Tanaka on Thursday. Rotowire still going with Happ and Monty on Wednesday.

Since we’re discussing oddball scenarios, here’s mine. I always thought Red Sox should have put 1986 International League MVP Pat Dodson, a smooth-fielding lefty first baseman, on the playoff roster. He got called up in September and played in 9 games, 7 as a defensive replacement at first base...

Ha. I’m driving 400 miles to State College, Pa. on Wednesday. Will start a game thread for the opener before I leave. Got a feeling the streak will end on Wednesday. Nice pull on the 8-1 starts all-time. In 1958, the pennant race was over in early June. This team might run away, too, unless...

Just riding the train. They’ve only faced one good team this season.

Zach only needed 10 pitches last night. He’s a better closer, in my book, than Chapman.

Another no-stress save for Zach. 1-2-3. 15 pitches.

He barely broke a sweat last night.

Judge made last out of 7th so his homer streak likely ends at five games. He went 2-for-4.

Avilan gives up one run in the 8th but fans Harper and Bruce, gets Didi on a grounder.

Meanwhile, Tommy Hunter pounced off the mound to retire Wade on a perfect bunt down the third base line. Then he later fans Judge to end inning number 7.

I had never heard of Kriske until just now. When you stop knowing the roster, old age is creeping in.
