The Yankees dropped their first series in a while, losing the first two games in Milwaukee after getting shutout in the first one and getting walked off in the second. New York was in control late, though they’d wasted chances to grow their lead outside of a couple of Paul Goldschmidt RBI hits. The bullpen got themselves into jams after Cam Schlittler kept them off the board through six, and when they eventually bended the game went into extras. The dreaded 10th inning on the road went how it usually goes for the Yankees, and now they’re looking to avoid the sweep today with the first member of the rotation cavalry returning in Carlos Rodón.
Before the matinee finale gets underway, we’ve got a couple things on the docket for you. Scott talks to Oswaldo Cabrera down in Scranton as the infielder works his way back from the gruesome leg injury he suffered last season, and then Matt has a double-feature covering the Rivalry Roundup and honoring Ed Barrow on his birthday. After the game, John will be around to deliver the weekly social media spotlight.
