Clint Frazier Plays Hero Ball In The Bronx With a Pimp Job Walkoff Blast That This Team Needed So Goddamn Badly
Yankees 5 Rays 3 F/11
HAMMER BAG!!! Man did I need that win for my sanity. The last week of baseball has tested my will to watch this team. Truly unwatchable, excruciating baseball. Tonight to get two shutout innings from your bullpen in Manfred's circus extra innings world you better win that fucking game, I don't care how bad the offensive rut is right now. Well, thank god for Clint Frazier with this nuke that he pimped the everliving shit out of.
That swing is a thing of beauty when it's working. While most of this team has been struggling of late, Clint has looked solid over the last week or so. His defense has held up too which saved the game in the 8th on a ball hit in no man's land. Do not give up on Hammer Bag.
Still looking back at that I don't understand how the ball ended up in his glove. No complaints on this end! Yankees snap a 4 game losing streak on a night they needed it bad. Maybe this is a spark? Okay let's be real probably not, but scoring 3 against Glasnow is not the easiest of tasks, especially after going down 2-0 right out of the gate. The base running was bad. The timely hitting leading up to Clint's bomb wasn't good at all, but a win is a win, especially against the Rays with how hot they are right now. Props to the bullpen tossing up six shutout innings in relief of Domingo. Luetge and Cessa were nails in extras. This team continues to prove it can pitch, but my god asking them to score is like pulling teeth.
Bring this energy to the stadium tomorrow and let's get ourselves on a roll.
And as always, thank you Bob.
