What did Cam Schlittler achieve in his recent performance?
Cam Schlittler dominant again yesterday out in Seattle. Six and a third of two-hit shutout ball. No walks, seven strikeouts. So he and Max Fried are both pitching to an ERA of zero through their first two starts. That's pretty good. Schlittler, the first pitcher in Yankees history with no runs allowed, no walks, and 15 or more strikeouts in any... Two-game span, so he is putting himself right in the mix there early in the season. So he leaves the game with a 4-0 lead, but things did get a little dicey in the eighth with the Mariners putting a couple of runs across on the combo of Camilo Duval and David Bednar. So 4-2 going to the ninth until Ben Rice added some insurance and apparently sent Dave Sims back in time along the way here on the fan.
2-1 pitch. Swing on a deep drive.
Right field. Canzone going back. Look it up. Goodbye. Ben Rice with a big, big home run. They give the Mariners, give the Yankees a little extra cushion here at T-Mobile Park. I got it all. You got it all going, Jay.
So he held together for 26 innings in Seattle, but it bit him there in the top of the ninth. So it happens to the best of them, you know? Way to go, Ichiro.
Yeah, it does happen. It does. Of course it does.
We all get tripped up from time to time.
He was there for 20. How many years was he there for?
20 years? I don't even know the number, but it was definitely a long time.
Right.
How did Ben Rice contribute to the Yankees' victory?
To the point where his son's still living out there. He's got roots there.
Yep.
Knows a lot of those guys. Yep.
Gives the Mariners a lead here at Safeco Park.
In any event, the Yanks did go on to win the game 5-3. They took the rubber game of the series from the Mariners. You had the big swing from Paul Goldschmidt, which you guys talked about already. Three-run homer in the sixth to give his team some breathing room. Back to Schlittler here. No magic sauce or game plan. Just go out there and keep it simple.
Being in the zone, making good pitches. Defense was great, so just having the confidence to go out there. No walks, limit that, and just attack the zone and do what I can to get as far as I can with a limited amount of pitches.
79 of them before he was lifted with one out, nobody on in the seventh. So the Yanks are 5-1. A couple of series wins, a travel back east ahead of tomorrow afternoon's home opener against the Marlins, who are also off to a 5-1 start. Yankees announced they will have Team USA Olympic hockey stars Jack Hughes and Aaron Frankel throwing out the ceremonial first pitchers before the Friday opener.
Nice, Aaron Frankel being the goaltender for the women's team.
That's exactly right. So that's what you got on tap for tomorrow in the Bronx, which is pretty cool. Sandy Alcantara, three-hitter on 93 pitches yesterday in Miami's 10-0 drubbing of the White Sox, who suck again.
Man, the White Sox are horrendous. One and five out of the gate. We were talking about them last year. What did we say the over-under for wins was last year? Do you remember? I don't.
Very low, I'm sure was the number. You're talking about this year's team?
No, we were talking about last year's team. I don't know what they ended up last year, but this year's team may be worse. You always got to be careful acquiring the best player off of a bad team.
Last year it was set at either 53.5 or 54.5, depending on where you looked.
Okay, and last year's record.
Oh, I'm sorry, last year's record, I'll get you that. This year it's up between 64.5 and 67.5. And I'll give you last year's record in a sec here.
They won 60 games. They went way over. There you go.
Way over. I guess that's why they got the boost for this year's overall.
I always felt like everybody was going to win 60 and lose 60, right?
Probably a good chance of that in most years.
Yeah.
Yeah. Best teams are going to lose 60. Worst teams are going to win 60. It's a good rule of thumb. In any event, Alcantara pitching well for Miami. They're playing well. Now you've got the Marlins and the Yankees that will meet up tomorrow. in the Bronx. Now to the Mets. Yes, dreadful again with runners in scoring position, but also the mental gaffes.
