The ball was flying in Yankee Stadium last night, as Manny Machado hit the longest home run of the season – 470 feet. Judge had another home run that had the fastest exit velocity of the season. However the real excitement came when the Yankees scored 3 in the 9th to tie and then won it in the 10th. Madison Bumgarner is most likely out until the All Star break. The Giants were the best team at the All Star break last year, and it doesn’t seem like that will be the case this year.
We have a full slate of games today so let’s get to it.
Low-Scoring Plays
Baltimore Orioles @ New York Yankees – The Orioles crushed the ball last night and have been on a tear. They have to cool off and come down to earth at some point. I like today to be that day. Pineda is having a strong season and should be able to shut down the Orioles. The Yankees are on a high right now as they had a tremendous comeback last night. Look for the bats to be a little sluggish but be better than the Orioles.
Targets: Pineda, Headley, Judge
