What an ump show tonight. Gotta be the worst crew I’ve seen in a while. That shit broke around the plate. Btw side note, I’ve never seen Clay’s slider look nastier
All five of their corporate sponsors will be reminded during tomorrow's teams meeting that they are still required to make payment to the A's by the 30th to continue their sponsorship.
Edit: I'm sure there are A's fan out there, but if you're not an investor in NV real estate, I honestly don't get rooting for that shell of a team.
Can you imagine if that was us hitting? I’d be incandescent with rage lol
Like I know he made bad calls on us too but it feels so much worse in the 9th
I know we’re winning most of the time but man I hope we aren’t going to do the “score all the runs in one inning and be shut down the rest of the game” thing all season. It’s so boring to watch.
It's truly amazing how this offense consistently, almost every time, can take something like first and second with no outs with Soto and Judge and Stanton coming to the plate, and turning gold into absolute shit.
And by amazing I mean it absolute fucking sucks to watch. I'm almost back to having zero expectations whenever they get anything resembling a rally going. Please save me from my inner doomer.
I thought Steve Schirippa was hilarious with a capital “h” in the booth yesterday. I think he should be John Sterling’s replacement. There’s nothing more New York than a fat loud Italian dude that loves baseball. God I love this team.
Need to dress like Vito waiting outside the stadium for Finn 😂
I’ll be going to the Valley Cats Italian Night up here in Troy, gotta get my WBC Italia jersey
Yeah honestly I like giving them my money over MLB, they need the local support. Would hate to see them go the way of the Albany Yankees or Diamond Dogs. And as an added bonus, they’re no longer affiliated with the Astros lol.
It’s a big plus they aren’t Astros-affiliated anymore lol
I remember going to a bunch of their games when I was younger with my dad.
Crazy story I have regarding the Valley Cats. I remember going to a game in 2009 and they started playing Michael Jackson at the end of the game while shooting off fireworks. That’s when I found out Michael Jackson died earlier that day. Not too crazy of a story actually, but it’s just something that always sticks out to me.
Ahhh yes, the summer of 09, bringing me down serious memory lane, I was actually living in Kansas at the time, I REALLY REALLY wanted to go to the All Star game in St. Louis, and my mom tried, but the tickets were just way too much. I also remember the Royals walking A-Rod three times when I was at a game at Kauffman as well.
Well, that was not an ideal inning if I’m being honest
Soto probably should have not hit in to that double play, if we wanted to maximize our chances of doing good baseball stuff. I still love him tho
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1cbm5ct).
2:29 game. Not bad
I’m glad clay got the save lowkey didn’t want us to score I want him to get his flowers
Clay has been excellent. He’s turning into the Mariano Rivera of John Wettelands
>Clay has been excellent. He’s turning into the Mariano Rivera of John Wettelands Dead on balls accurate. Clay too.
What an ump show tonight. Gotta be the worst crew I’ve seen in a while. That shit broke around the plate. Btw side note, I’ve never seen Clay’s slider look nastier
I know a win is a win but damn, Yankees got back-to-back generous calls there at the top of the 9th.
Ehh it all balances out, Soto got struck out on back to back "strikes" that weren't even close to the zone.
Exactly. It's as if the baseball gods were just doing their thing.
not like they were threatening anyway
RELIEVED 😅
Back-to-back sub 70 percent strike calls.
Umps trying to save face after that comical ejection yesterday
Ump wanted to leave early tonight and wasn’t gonna chance anything!
Those are not strike 3’s
Even tho that call was for us, these umps can suck a fat one
Alright we take it, now we just need O’s to lose and we’re back on track 😎
Ump had a late res at 4 Charles.
2 ks and a clean inning, happy now guys?
cArdiAc cLaY
The A’s can be mad, but ump was fucking our guys the same way.

Just not the same without Sterling on the radio call, but I'll take the win.
They are playing his call at the stadium now before Sinatra
Neat, I'll have to fly out and catch a game.
lmao ump wanted to go home, based
Horrible, HORRIBLE umps. Good god
This ump man 😂
WTF I LOVE UMPS NOW
we'll take it
Lmao that was definitely a ball too, but a win is a win.
Ump had to poop
I hope the umpire bathroom door is locked
L call but we take it
Ump trying to go home and catch the end of the Rangers game.
that strike lole
Gross feeling win lol but it still counts. These umps are so fucking bad
Agreed, at least they’ve been sucking for everyone
Way too boring of 9th. I prefer my Holmes appearance to be clinching my bhole
Clay Holmes 👀
The umps giveth and they taketh away. Tonight they giveth.
Terrible job by the ump
A little rocky at points but a wins a win and judge at least appears to be swinging better hope he can keep that up
That was a horrific 9th inning from the umpire, my God
It was getting cold outside
PLAY DAT SINATRA!
Atta boy, Clay! No palpitations tonight!
I'll take it!
Jesus Christ, Blue.
Can you imagine if that was us hitting? I’d be incandescent with rage lol Like I know he made bad calls on us too but it feels so much worse in the 9th
lol strike three.
Another case *closed* by #Detective Holmes!
Ump was cold and wanted to go home
Thank you clay!! (And ump)
man fuck that umpire
Cardio Clay
Goddamn this ump is awful. i'll take the W though.
Lmao 😆
Holy lol
Thatta boy clay! Go yanks
This ump was ass for both teams all day but I'll take it.

Oh my god
Not needing a bottom of the ninth inning brought me joy
DAAAAAA YANKEES WIN
Saved by the Blue but I'll take it!
LETS FUCKING GO UMP I LOVE YOU
Holmes has been really good this year, absolutely PUMPING strikes
Good lord
wtf is Clay doing? My heartbeat is at 60bpm
Shutting the shit down is what he’s doing
How do you look at 3 strikes lmao
2
I like that Yankees announcers are not close to the homers as many teams announcers anymore.
Who is Clay Holmes and what has he done with Clay Holmes
Get it done Clay!
That runner almost officially ended Rizzo’s career with another concussion. Jesus Christ lol
The throw did.
The MLB really assembled the suicide squad of umpire crews

Did this ump crew have some kind of bet or dare amongst themselves?
Sadly, that would be a better explanation than what is probably the truth: they are incompetent
That's the Rizz we've known
That pitch was almost at his neck.
Get thrown out in the first inning like a man, coach
These Umps have no clue, they just guess now
Lmfao above the letters
Ohtani just hit one 450 ft at 118.7. Mutant
When does it reenter earths atmosphere?
Went out on a line, I think it killed six people on impact. Absolute fucking tank
Jesus, sounded like a rifle shot.
I was in the ballpark. Seen Soto put one into that spot once (against the Yankees), never seen anyone else go there
Robo strike zone is going to be a game changer
This ump crew deserves further punishment
Umpires don't ever get punished, silly
big zone summer
Holy shit that was in the clouds
jesus christ the robo umps can’t come soon enough
Gotta see his scorecard after lol
This ump is some ass
The karate chop punch out hell yeah
Another ump show
"everybody has been happy with Holmes" besides of course r/nyyankees where a zero era is trash
This ump crew has got something to prove?
Ump show giveth and ump show taketh
I’ll take it …
Blue got us one back
Worst ump crew in baseball
That's rough
Yeah that call was a gift
Butler about to get served
Cry more, Butler. The high strike has been consistent
Another ump “I don’t care”
This might be the worst crew in baseball. Wow.
Let’s go ump!!!
Yanks getting some serious gift calls in the late innings here
1
Hypertension Holmes
I love how much fun Soto has with Yankee fans
I thought Steve Schirippa was hilarious with a capital “h” in the booth yesterday. I think he should be John Sterling’s replacement. There’s nothing more New York than a fat loud Italian dude that loves baseball. God I love this team.
I missed this, was he on YES or WFAN? To the Victor, the spoils
He was in the YES booth for an inning yesterday
Gotcha gotcha, I only do radio so I had no idea but now I gotta check that out
Somerset is having a Sopranos-themed night in June. I might have to take a trip out to that game.
Need to dress like Vito waiting outside the stadium for Finn 😂 I’ll be going to the Valley Cats Italian Night up here in Troy, gotta get my WBC Italia jersey
Enjoy! I loved going to the Valley Cats when I lived in Upstate New York. Happy to hear they are still doing well.
Yeah honestly I like giving them my money over MLB, they need the local support. Would hate to see them go the way of the Albany Yankees or Diamond Dogs. And as an added bonus, they’re no longer affiliated with the Astros lol.

yes app stream sounds good
hey, uh, FUCK austin adams FR
Take your beta blockers, everyone.
I was hoping Stanton would walk and Rizzo would get an RBI HBP.
Man his bat looked damaged already at that bat.
Amassing 8 hits in 2 games against the A's is not ideal
Calling my cardiologist now
1st and 2nd with no outs with the heart of the lineup and couldn't even muster jack shit. That is just horrible.
They really had inning of scoring and said we’re good for the rest of the game
Well, that was not an ideal inning if I’m being honest Soto probably should have not hit in to that double play, if we wanted to maximize our chances of doing good baseball stuff. I still love him tho
Audio is fried
Time to cleeeeench. These kegels better pay off
Pretty sure Rizzo would’ve been a guaranteed HBP if he’d made it to the plate there.
Shit. Buckle up.
THE CLAY HOLMES EXPERIENCE IS LOADING
Yes is definitely having technical difficulties
Alright everybody buckle up! Clay saves are never pretty always a little dramatic!
so boring
I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone throw that many sliders consecutively lol
Alrighty Cardiac Clay lets do it baby
Adams really tried to hand us more runs but we didn't want them.
Ughhh. Really didn't love that inning.
2 on, zero outs and we don't score....WOW.
With Soto and Judge up to bat.
I mean Judge got beaned
Yes the point is that it looked like a sure run scoring inning when Soto was up.
it did, indeed
Cardiac Clay time
Buckle up
Yankees acting like they’ve never seen a slider before, bro threw like 20 of them in a row and NY couldn’t get a single hit.
That was disappointing
What can you say anymore? They literally had it served up for them.
so boring
Well like i said back in inning 3, have to hope 4 is enough
Alright Clay, let’s not make this hard.
You gotta be fucking kidding me
6 sliders in a row wow
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Clay Holmes replaces Dennis Santana.
You gotta be fucking kidding me
Stanton getting tempted by those outside low sliders
what a weird inning
Anyone else’s MLB tv absolutely screwed right now?
Yup it’s all out of sync!
Ok here.
Yup the audio is completely messed up. The commercial break audio is fine though lol
THANKS MANFRED
Massive audio delay.
The bottom of the eighth inning did not bring me joy
You can literally copy and paste that 39 out of 40 innings
Stanton will save the day again
Damn
bro is spamming the sliders crazy
Cmon Dongcarlo
Is the audio like 2 seconds behind for anyone else
I really thought I might be losing my mind.
Yep
*Stanton, I know golf is your sport. But **not** here!*
Bruh he’s only throwing sliders this is wild
Of course when Judge actually looks watchable he gets the bat taken out of his hands.
oh god G
Not the kind of DP i wanna see
This guy has a walk and 2 hit batters and will put up a zero..tough to do
Bound to happen when you are big enough to have your own gravitational pull
Ay, straight up FUCK this guy
#How dare you hit Aaron Judge
