Greg Giannotti (Gio)

Mentioned Ben Rice, he was big as well.

RBI double in the first, and then a solo homer in the ninth to pad the lead.

So the Yankees now will travel back east ahead of tomorrow afternoon's home opener against the Marlins, who we mentioned are also off to a 5-1 start.

Sandy Alcantara, a three-hit shutout on 93 pitches yesterday as Miami beat up on the White Sox 10th.

10-0.

So Alcantara, Freed, or Alcantara, rather, Freed and Schlittler-esque.

He's got 16 innings, one unearned run, so an ERA of zero as well through his first couple of starts.

And this was a Mets trade target over the last couple of years.

They were never able to get done, and it'd be nice to have him in the rotation as well, but hey.

It's all right.

Just got to go out and beat this Marlins team that's kicking everybody's ass.

Indeed.

A Juan Soto home run, the only production for the Mets yesterday, and that was right after Francisco Lindori got himself picked off first base in the sixth inning.

Cardinals end up forcing extras.

The game tied at one, and then in the bottom of the 11th.

Two outs.

Right on right.

Myers pitch.

Lifted in the air.

Shallow right.
