      no clue how they are in 1st, they have 2 good pitchers, 2.5 good hitters and a bad bullpen. and the thing about the bad hitters those names include Bryant, Rizzo, Bryant, Contreras, Schwarber. v weird.

        Yankees up 6-2 on Jays.

        Jays score 6 runs in the inning including a Vladdy straight steal of 2nd! His first steal of the year! No HR for the Jays, and they bat around in the inning! 8-6 now!

        We have a ballgame here. 10 games of this in September, anything can happen! This is all but likely determining 2nd place in the division.

        Jays have had bases loaded 3 diff times in this inning.

            I know they've had injuries, but the Yankees slide has been pretty shocking...if this was a 162 game season you'd shrug it off to a slump, but in a 60 game season it can make all the difference.

              That's what makes this season even more fun. Expanded playoffs and shortened season. Jays have won all of 20 games and fans are going crazy because of how close we are to a playoff spot. In a regular season, it's just a hot start to the year and we're only in May.

              I wouldn't be opposed to shorter seasons in the future. Not anything under 100 games obviously.

                It's great and dismaying at the same time. They might win a first round series, but they have no shot in a 7 game series unless Hendricks and Darvish both pitch twice

                  Hmm...I didn't think we were doing playoff series this year; I thought it was going to be a home run derby followed by a hot dog eating contest to see who advances to the next round.

                      Yankees are hot *** right now. But they usually struggle without Judge. Nothing going right for them right now.

                          Oh, I know..although I'll be honest I have no idea what it looks like. Haven't looked into who matches up with who, how many games each series is, etc.

                            Typical Yankees. Lose a game and are complaining about it.

                            Yes the lights aren't 100% like MLB ballpark lights, but they're newly installed and better than AAA lights.

                            Not to mention Jays and their opponents have played with these lights the past month.

                            Bad lighting isn't why Yankees have been on a losing streak and allowed a grand slam on a pitch right down the middle of the plate.

                              Eric Hosmer out 2-6 weeks after fracturing left index finger while attempting to bunt.

                              Kyle Hendricks continues to own the Cardinals

                              Cardinals and Twins with a doubleheader today
                              I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                              I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

                                That's a weird thing to complain about; both teams have to play with them, so it isn't like one team has an advantage...
