00:00What a wild rally yesterday up in the Bronx as the Yankees come all the way back to walk it off

00:06in extras Aaron Judge and RBI sack fly but it was an eighth inning DRS that was vital for New York

00:13they were getting no hit into the eighth by Brian Wu the starter for the Seattle Mariners the M's

00:18were a slight road favorite in the Bronx not something you often see to avoid a sweep in

00:24this three-game midweek set against the pinstripes they get to Brian Wu early in the eighth relievers

00:29come in the bullpen out there for Seattle and Giancarlo Stanton takes advantage a three-run shot

00:36Austin Wells adds in his second RBI of the eighth inning tied at five all into the extra frame and

00:43Aaron Judge wins it for New York the Yankees rally to complete the sweep 6-5 over Seattle and DRS a

00:50really good week for the Yanks against the Mariners pretty stiff competition the Yankees though who

00:56had entered this week of course they had to snap that six-game slide in the finale of the subway

01:01series on Sunday against the Mets they did that but even entering this series against Seattle they

01:08had dropped nine of their previous 12 they've now won four in a row and trail the Blue Jays by just

01:14two games atop the American League East yeah good move for the Yankees too and also see if you can

01:19extend it now Friday Saturday Sunday next up on the docket see if you can go two and one in the series

01:24are three and oh and get some of that momentum back which Toronto seemingly they were surging over

01:28the past couple weeks but also like I see the box score and you know somebody came in pinch hit went

01:33one for one they hit a home run damn you know what Monday night it's going to be so much fun

01:37watching Giancarlo stand in that home run derby oh nope nope no we're not going to watch him either

01:42one of the premier home run hitters in Major League Baseball but he does like hit home runs just not in

01:47home run derby anymore so all right all right well I'm sorry for you my friend we'll talk more about the

01:52home run derby a little bit later on the Yankees though despite at a certain point earlier this

01:58week DRS trailing Toronto by three and a half games in the American League East standings have always

02:03remained the favorites now backed by only two games they're back to a minus money favorite at minus

02:09130 let's head to Cincinnati the finale of a four game set between the Marlins and the Reds Miami had

02:15taken the opening two games of this week to extend their franchise best road winning streak to 11

02:22straight they dropped the final two as the Reds had some great pitching performances on both

02:27Wednesday and yesterday first Andrew Abbott getting the better of Sandy Alcantara as many have

02:33on Wednesday night how about yesterday since the eight minus 168 home favorite with who on the bump

02:40Nick Lodolo six innings of shutout work only allowing three base knocks the Reds blank the fish

02:46to split the four game set six zip in the finale yeah Quancho's not very good and yesterday five

02:52innings pitch six runs five of those earned ERA now for 5.62 that's exactly what you're supposed to do

02:58that lineup but also holding the fish bats down that's impressive also you take a look at that

03:02lineup here for the Cincinnati Reds started the starting pitchers look sometimes when you have

03:06left-handed pitchers that get into a groove man they're hard to stop and you saw that yesterday with

03:10Lodolo you have a couple young lefties in that you know rotation that you have but the Marlins 42 and 50 they're

03:16going to be an interesting team all the way through some talent on that team they'll fight you some

03:20nights they'll play poorly other nights but for the Cincinnati Reds again just getting back on the

03:23right track here once again three more games to hit that all-star break use that momentum to your

03:29advantage and they have a little bit of it now right now yeah they certainly do DRS and who do they end

03:34out this final weekend at home against the worst team by far in Major League Baseball the Colorado

03:40Rockies huge for my Reds 48 wins we need 80 I bet the over their preseason win total at 79

03:48and a half and DRS the Reds will be in the mix for a wild card spot down the home stretch following

03:54the all-star break two games above 500 48 and 46 three games back of the Giants for that third and

04:02final spot sandwiched in between the Giants and the Reds two teams the Padres a half game back

04:07in the Cardinals a full game back of San Francisco for that final NL wild card spot we talked about

04:14St. Louis again they are a full game back of that filed wild card spot and they came to play in their

04:21final few games of this midweek set against the Nationals they won the opening game four to two

04:27the Nats win the second game eight to two the Cardinals respond with eight runs of their own

04:32under the arch yesterday St. Louis more than a dollar and 40 cent favorite at home they play

04:38eight they take the rubber match the Cardinals win the midweek set against the Nats yeah Miles

04:43Michael is five and two-thirds innings pitch only two hits no earned run six strikeouts in that

04:48performance to get his era finally below a five sometimes that all takes four of ten at the plate

04:53here with runners in scoring position for the Cardinals a 400 batting average you'll take that each and

04:58every time for the Nationals sometimes it is hit or miss and last night it just was a miss Soroka

05:02wasn't bad four innings pitch two earned runs you'll take that and say all right at least we should be

05:06in the game but only five runners left on base oh for five with runners in scoring position they were

05:11dead weight at the plate last night
