Bat was not in his way at all. McCann has gotta get moving there 

Huh? The bat hit McCann and kept him from from moving forward to field the ball. I don't what the rule is.

At least Burnes did what he should have done against a banjo hitter like Lopez.  

Steve Martin was an excellent banjo player. Maybe he can help with banjo hitters.

Burnes knows how to wiggle out of trouble.

I love watching these games with you guys, but damn is this the biggest group of doomers I've ever been around!

It's impossible to be a voice of reason in the game thread. It's like....nobody has ever watched baseball before, but it's every day. I like watching it with everyone too, though.

[Billy F-Face3]

Nice strikeouts by Burnes ti keep the lead. Gotta love when the bottom drops!

Soto, Judge and Stanton all homer in the same inning off Yu Darvish who came in with an ERA of 2.17... the gap between the Yankees and Orioles is looking huge these days. They have to cool off, right?

If those three stay healthy all season then the Yankees are pretty much untouchable.  Orioles just have to worry about themselves.

I suppose you could argue that it made him lose his focus. It was not impeding his path to the ball.  He waited to pursue it. Not sure if he was trying to sell it like a basketball or soccer game play. But that’s what it looked like to me. 

Tony-OH seems to agree.

They almost deserve to lose wearing those ugly City Connect uniforms.

It has to end sometime. They are all injuries waiting to happen.

What are the chances we win if we can't score another run?

[Moose Milligan]

Is it me or is their rightfielder playing like 3 steps in front of the warning track?

McCann was clearly impacted by the bat. It stunned him. Former up said it’s usually not called. 
 

Lee did let his bat go way behind him. You don’t usually see that.
