George Lombard Jr: the youngest Yankee since Mickey Mantle to do WHAT?! (Top MLB Plays from 9/9/26!)

Ellie Dela Cruz up there now Yamamoto has struck out six the pitch Ellie swings and a high fly ball it's deep to center Edmonds back out of room and is gone he's done it again. Ellie has homered in five straight games a new career high his twenty six home run of the year and this one to the opposite field the left center. I mean that's a pitch that's on the inside part of the plate and he hits it in the left center field in a ballpark where at this time of night it's starting to play real deep. I mean he is just so on point right now. Betts swing on to hit the right field and hit well Gary Gary Giddyup baby Giddyup got a grand slam for the kid George Lombard Jr. goes up a grand slam. That's the first Yankee Grand Slam of the year. A big blow up Yankees lead. Kind of feel pretty cool getting that little hype from the captain. They've got their ace on the mound and a rotation full of guys who could put that label on Yoshinobu Yamamoto fifth in the league with a two sixty seven. This guy is a pressure pitcher a big game pitcher and every game for him has felt like it's big. A one ninety five in August he was dealing throws the splitter hair more than the four Seamer but the four Seamer has been leaked as far as an effectiveness at the referee. Their one forty average makes it the number one fastball in baseball. The splitter's top ten the sinker's top ten and you just don't know what you're going to get in a given outing. And he's matched his career high with a ten strikeout in the night. Seven dominant innings from Yamamoto. Is Hill the kid can fly folks right here with Whitcomb goodness first pitch just sitting in the bushes and jumps on it and almost knocks it out of here. Here's Herrera the third. This one get away and take advantage of it. And what do they do they sweep the Cardinals in this three game series right center field sending Young back at the wall. Machado will score it comes France all the way from first base he'll score Padres take a three to lead back at the wall Young I think that glove on it and crashed into the fence Maryland's up at third base and the Padres end up with a three to lead on the other team. With thirty three wins in the daytime this year Milwaukee Maryland the air to left field and deep Lyle's back it up onto the track he's at the wall he leaps it's going to go to run home run Padres with back to back extra base it's to open the inning and it's seven to two action Jackson at it again they have tried him at the top of the zone a couple of different times in this game he's tripled off the wall and now he goes awful taco for a two run shot. This ball is blasted Jackson Merrill leads up his promise back to work first pitch swinging in the air deep to left center Young is at the wall this one going to go Jackson Merrill with another two run homer in the fifth and now a lead homer in the seventh number twenty four for Merrill and it's eight to two triple off the center field wall awful taco to left this time he picks the biggest part of the yard five RBI on the afternoon his second homer of this ballgame Padres lead eight to.
