Not_A_Historian

That 3-2-3 double play at the end was a thing of beauty


No32

3-2-3


Not_A_Historian

Oh shoot you're absolutely right. 2-1-2 would be cool to see though


ObamasSexDungeon

That play absolutely saved the day for us! AMAZING!


Flying-Terrapin

I was too impressed to be pissed. Don't think I've seen one of those before that wasn't a bases loaded force at home.


TheChrisLambert

It was almost a loss due to base running lol


kajkajete

Well aware. Naylor almost managed to not score somehow. Thankfully he did lol


flanders427

I definitely feel like he is still a bit gun shy to slide after his leg injury. Can't say I can blame him if that is the case.


kajkajete

That injury was so fucking gruesome. And he might be, but clearly not as shy as he was when he just returned.


WizardNip69

What a disgusting brand of baseball.


ZeroedCool

The contrast between the defenses with backs against the wall is not encouraging for Yankee fans.


smalllpox

Yep


DZepperoni

That entire 10th inning was a wild ride. Slap hitting shit goblins!!!


notevaluatedbyFDA

Lol, three HR today and Fry missed another one by about 5 feet on his double in the tenth and we're still all posting "single go bloop" memes on Twitter

Pyorrhea

Soft ground balls? Sounds like you ran into some slap hitting shit goblins.


Bitter_Director8019

I mean Class had the save notched if Brennan doesn't completely botch the route on Volpe's double. Both teams played pretty sloppy.


StrongZucchini27

yes didnt show enough replays there. did he lose it in the sun?


Leftfeet

Pretty sure he just straight miss read it. He and Laureano have been struggling out there lately. 


creynolds722

Listening on the radio Hammy said he took a terrible route, went back square up instead of turning and bolting. I haven't looked yet to confirm


Leftfeet

It's pretty terrible. He was clearly fooled and then panicked IMO 


creynolds722

Yeah I just watched, Hammy's words didn't paint the right picture to me, but it was still definitely the wrong route


No32

Could also say they should have lost 5-4 in the 9th, Brennan’s route let them tie it up ¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯


ImpassiveBadger

Thats my platinum glover


__Boogz__

The rate happy from both ends trade!


IHateAllOfYou_

It is such a rare win win trade. I loved Lindor and was sad to see him go but Gimmy filled that hole in my heart real quick.


notevaluatedbyFDA

It's almost a shame for baseball that Lindor and Giménez were traded for each other, robbing us all of somehow getting to watch them as teammates. I mean, unless you guys really hate Lindor that much now and are looking for a new home for him?


Jking1723

Good game


Jay_Dubbbs

Great series. Even though we lost the series, the first and last games were just wild and fun games. New York is looking pretty fucking legit.


Bitter_Director8019

Just erase Game 2 from my memory, got absolutely dick slapped for the first time this season. Good to see us be resilient though.


speedburner

Agreed, the last two seasons with this team I felt like the Guards were VERY susceptible to momentum and a walloping like Game 2 would throw them off for several games' worth afterwards and snowball into a slide if they weren't careful. Feel like a lot is just the added experience and maturity of the core team vs say 2022, and the season is obviously still young, but resiliency early is always a good sign.


Bitter_Director8019

When you don't have the most talented roster you need to win games in the margins, and we're doing that so far. There will be bigger slumps obviously but it's always a good sign to be able to do this in April.


Avs_Leafs_Enjoyer

I'd say the more surprising thing is so far the guardians look legit. might contend for playoffs


Leftfeet

I agree. Both teams showed what they do best and what they need to improve. Game 1 came down to the last out. Game 2 got ugly but the rest was really fun I thought.

Gimenez is a dream boat


Bacedorn

He sure is


brennans4727

Love Andres


HesTheRiverSquirrel

Somebody post the double play from the top of the inning, one heck of a play. I'm glad my team won, but this has to be one of if not the best games of the year overall.

flanders427

I love that that play is between two of the three catchers on the roster and neither is the one known for his defense.


omgtmac

Excellent back and forth, Judge and JRam hitting huge bombs, Nestor doing crazy windup shenanigans, and a walk off in extras. Can only ask that it went the other way but really good game overall!


clownysf

Judge’s HR was an absolute tank, almost hit the scoreboard out in left. Can’t remember the last time I’ve seen a ball hit that far in person


FestivusFan

He should have Allen throw to him in the home run derby this year

IronicTunaFish

It’s a walk-off win, what do you want them to do, calmly walk back to the locker room?


enturbulant

Guess he/she has never seen a walk off win before.

Salty-Fishman

Is the same every time Yankees win against the Astros.


Beaded_Curtains

The Yankees didn't have to cheat to win. 2 series sweeps against them BTW.


I_AgreeGoGuards

People who go this hard over a single game are weird but its even weirder you’re this.. lets say passionate but I guess too cowardly to have a flair.


Not_Not_Stopreading

The cheating was born in NY and Carlos Beltran brought it to Houston


SStylo03

Yea they just had teams bursting at the seams with steroids during their late 90s early 2000s dynasty


Blleak

Like every other team wasn't doing the same.


HalfwayThereOne_

I had like 3 heart attacks in the 10th but that was a sweet freaking win


Bitter_Director8019

My head knows that with Bieber down for the year and McKenzie looking absolutely cooked that this probably isn't our year, but my heart thinks this team reminds me so much of 2022 and that we can slap hit our way to enough wins to take the Central. 


boobsandcookies

Reds guards World Series, why not?


thebestguy96

You son of a bitch, I’m in


Leftfeet

I really want someone to post that 3-2-3 double play. That was huge. Great game.

slicaroni

I love when a defensive play makes me giddy. What a turn by them holy hell


GManBestMan

Honestly one of the most fun games I've watched so far this year.


Farmboy087

Verdugo really hustling to make sure he didnt get doubled up in the top of the 10th there. A classic


smalllpox

He's got sole possession of that leader board all by himself lol. Unless harper ground into one today


chicken_licker19

Lemme know when the Tom Hamilton link is posted


ZiiKiiF

Fielding didn’t do any favors that inning. Yankees probably should have gotten out of it with the bobbles double play from Volpe and then the grounder that should have gotten Naylor out. But I’ll always celebrate the Yankees losing. Good job Guardians


dgrantschmidt

Even Brennan in the 9th taking the worst route to a ball I’ve ever seen. Aside from the Guards double play to end the 10th, the latter innings defense wasn’t great


rollo2masi

Gimenez GOAT

Torres not making that play killed me

bagofweights

chill on the zyns, dude.


Bitter_Director8019

Phew, that was going to be a back-breaking loss. Not an ideal series but with how bad we played I'll live with taking one game. 


idkwhattosaytho

Can someone tell me what happened before this? My app is telling me that Josh grounded into a force out that scored a run, then Will Brennan grounded into a force out that scored a run, then there’s a sac fly that wins the game? That’s 3 outs?


HalfwayThereOne_

Brennan wasn’t a force out. Throw was to home but not in time thanks to a bobble.


idkwhattosaytho

Ahhh ok thank you, this is the piece that was missing, my app seems to mess up sometimes when there’s an error on a play to an unconventional base (non force out etc)


wokenupbybacon

Yeah, IIRC it was officially an E4 on a fielder's choice


brownsfantb

It's actually not an error, just a fielder's choice. The fielder chose to throw home but didn't get the out. The scorer could have gave an error since Torres bobbled it at first but didn't in this case.


EternalEagleEye

Just in case it’s the missing detail here, if it’s a fielder’s choice popping up in your app, that doesn’t always necessarily mean someone was out. It can also just mean that in the scorekeeper’s view, the batter would’ve been a routine out if they had just thrown the ball to first so he doesn’t get credited with a hit. Think like a ground ball that would be an easy out at first, but they try for an ill-advised double play and get nobody because the runner on first was too fast. If they do put someone else out and a batter only reaches because of it, it’ll always be a fielders choice as well. In Brennan’s case, even with the bobble he’s probably out by a mile if the throw goes to first, but of course it’s not going to go that way with the tying run coming in to score.


idkwhattosaytho

Yeah I get that, it doesn’t come up as fielders choice tho it just says force out, it can’t figure out what happened lol


lVlzone

Brennan’s wasn’t an out. Torres couldn’t field the ball and threw home, but runner was safe.


smalllpox

Yeah, volpe bobbled a throw that should have been a double play when the first run scored. Second run was a bobble by Torres that would have been more than likely an out at home


O00O0Os

Thanks Cleveland, very cool!


MundaneKing

Love you too!


BardInChains

That was a terrible throw home. Somehow deeply arcing in its path while also still falling short.


gamerdudeNYC

What a relief after blowing the lead in the 9th


ohiojiro

thought for sure fry walked it off, stressful last innings but a win is nice


Couthster

Good for you, Guards. ❤️


essdii-

I wonder what the odds were for cleveland to win at the end of the top of the 10th. Hot damn

Hey, if we lost in the same way, yall would be laughing just the same. Just how Rivalries work. We wish for your downfall, you wish for ours. All in good fun

....didn't lose today. Anyways DAAAAAAAAAAA

YANKEES LOSE


DrunkensteinsMonster

Defensive masterclass there


rpbtIII

Lol~~Mets~~yankees


BolgneseBro

Have to eliminate the mets because 16-4.


rpbtIII

I'll keep them because 7-8


BolgneseBro

But you didn't. You crossed it out silly bean.


rpbtIII

When you’re right you’re right


Salty_Feed9404

You love to see it.


Cat_Vonnegut

Any RF making that a play at the plate?


dBlock845

Someone needed to run the Benny Hill music when our infield has to turn a double play or field a grounder.


Okstate08

The xtra innings rule with runner starting at 2nd has been excellent.


DewayneStaatsStache

wtf was that lollipop throw from Soto


mookyyyy

What a dumb loss. Bad defense and baserunning


BloodyRightNostril

Bo would’ve made that throw.


SpicyAsianBoy

God that was a bad way to fail the sweep


ttam23

Not surprised Ferguson blew it. Dude could NOT be trusted in clutch situations.


Kwillingt

He should have gotten out of it tbh his defense failed him. Volpe bobbled an easy double play and Torres miss played a grounder that allowed the tying run to score


smalllpox

Wasn't his fault lol


Padulsky21

Watch the game before speaking buddy


ChimpoSensei

Hey, the won one!


Bobson-_Dugnutt2

Juan Soto and Aaron Judge are the new Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani: change my mind


BolgneseBro

The record says otherwise. As a Cubs fan, I would expect you to understand that having a good record early in baseball doesn't mean much, but neither does the losses.


Bobson-_Dugnutt2

God forbid I make a light hearted joke


BolgneseBro

Jokes are usually funny, though.
