Kwan struck out 2x for the first time in his major league career.
We're back into the offensive bust half of the boom and bust cycle
Down 3-2
2 hits both by Naylor: a 2 run homer our only hit off the starter and an 8th inning leadoff single, followed so far two outs follow but here comes Hedges to turn the game around

Good call on Hedges civ but then again Clase didn't get it done in the 9th. Leadoff walk to Donaldson and it went downhill from there.

Yankee fans threw things on the field - what crap.

I am so tired of NY fans (and there are other cities) being called "passionate" because they are so out of control.

Hope they are caught on camera and banned from games.

I think the Guardians' outfielders should ask the MLBPA to demand all fans be barred from Yankee stadium beyond the fence seating. This is common behavior and there is no reason to put players at risk.
I am sure the NY management will respond very responsively with a hardfelt annoucement at the start of the game that "it is inappropriate to throw objects onto the field and that those who do so may be removed". That will probably be received with laughter and boos

Disasterous today. Civale doesn't have it so far this season. Announcer Andre Knott said Civale had mentioned not feeling strong enough and not knowing why.

As for the rest of the game - obviously it's always a tall order for a 3 game series in NY. Really 1 out of 3 is a good result.

So to lose that 2nd game was a killer. Great comeback only to have your stud closer piss it away.

And then face Gerritt Cole.

OUCH!

Yuck. What a team! Jose bats in 4. Someone else batted in one. And Plesac had a bad game. That's about all there is to say, except:

Reyes moved from cleanup to 6th did not strike out everytime up only 3 K's and when he hit the ball was into a doubleplay.

And Bobby Bradley got an at bat! and struck out. I doubt that he'll make it through the roster reduction at the end of the week.

Superace Reid Detmers, ERA 6.57, has shut down the powerhouse offense for 4 innings.
Meanwhile error by Quantrill, error by surehanded Owen Miller a walk a single and a sac fly lead to 3 runs and insurmountable 3-0 lead.

If I were Tito, I think I'd call it a career. This team is probably unsalvageable.
