New York Yankees @ Los Angeles Angels | Game Highlights (5/28/25)

And the payoff given out to right field that's going to dunk in for base it. So Laird cuts it off going for two is Goldschmidt he'll make it with a leadoff double. They're going to intentionally walk judge with first base open. Why because Jeff with runners in scoring position this year 18 for 40 hitting 450. Ball for loading the bases for Anthony Volpe. Last four games six hits and 17 in bats that one is driven out to left center field and that is going to be caught on the run by Taylor tagging and scoring is Goldschmidt. That's a sack fly for Volpe and the Yankees have a lead. It's one nothing. Chopped slowly going to be a tough play. The first not in time. Nice scoop by Shana well a nice play by Mocada but Dominguez beats it out to reload the bases with the infield second eleven games up the I.L. seven for thirty four swings at the first pitch it skies it to center field. Taylor is there puts it away and that'll do it. The numbers on Clark Smith this year is making his eighth start or you see the E.R.A. Will disappointed in his last start in Colorado for two thirds to ninety seven pitches. It's a base hit to center field for Neto. This could be two. There's one. There's two four six three. Longest road trip of the year for the Yankees. Nine games ten days crack to right center field base it. It gets past Bellinger and goes to the wall and Mocada picks up a two hour double. Swing and a miss Ward down on strikes no runs two hits one man left. We played one Yankees lead one nothing. There's a base hit inside third and down the left field line Goldschmidt off to the races playing it out there is Ward. He will fired in Goldschmidt stops at third and Grisham gets himself a double. And will they intentionally want judge again. I think you probably are going to see him go down to first and that's exactly what's going to happen. Washington wants no part of the Baron judge. Let's go fly ball left field. Ward will put it away and Washington's strategy works out two hits bases are left loaded. Washington said yes I did the right thing. I walk judge. So Larratt second O'Hoppy is at first. Darno at the plate and he goes down swinging. Swing and a miss on a breaking ball. That's the third strikeout for Schmidt swing and a miss on the breaking ball. Once you start coming inside the right he's in you can expand his own ground ball is short. There's one on the first got a double play. Just got him after review the call the field is overturned. The runner is safe. Los Angeles will retain their talent. Garner with a high fly ball to center Grisham is there puts it away and that will do it. Now Judge is the first Yankee to be intentionally walked twice within the first two innings of game since older Yankee fans will remember the name Gene Woodley on August 30th of 1953 at Comiskey Park against the White Sox. So some interaction between Judge and Ron Washington. You have the best hitter in baseball and you have first base open runners in scoring position. I'm surprised it doesn't happen more. I was going to say that I hate when it happens because I love to see him swing the bat but I don't understand why. Why more by anybody pitches to this guy because there's no proper protection. Who out there would you be afraid to face rather than Aaron Judge. And that's no knock on Bellinger to have a really good year. As a pitcher did it bother you when somebody said intentionally walk up. Not really because most of most of the guys that I intentionally walk was probably a left hander to get to a righty high fly ball right center. So Laird puts it away popped up Goldschmidt's there and puts it away for the final out of a one to three and six strong for Schmidty leads one nothing. New Yankee pitcher is in Hamilton didn't allow a run on Saturday. Swing and a miss got a big strikeout for Hamilton swing and a miss another breaking ball to strikeouts for Hamilton. Fly ball left field that's going to dunk in for a base hit. Hope he rounds first he's going to go to second Ward will just flip the ball into Neto. It's a one hour double for Volpe. So Hamilton gives them five big outs out of the nine that they need. They need one more this inning they go to Hill. There's a ground ball by Chantel. And LeMay who turns it into an out to end the inning. So Hill comes on and does the job comes down to Mark Leiter Junior. We mentioned that in all likelihood no Weaver no Williams no Lowe Isaac. That would be their third time in four days. They try to stay away from that Leiter has one save this season eight saves in his career. He's pitched well. Lined right at Bebas one pitch one out. Strike three got him looking at a splitter one out to go. Leiter deals. Just miss with the breaking ball ball for just miss the outside corner. So Lugo is a tying run. O'Hoppy is the winning run. Grounded foul. And the pitch to O'Hoppy swing and a miss curveball Owen to once again the Angels down to their final strike strike three curveball Nicky's with one nothing and they sweep the Angels in Anaheim.
