00:00It's for each of these teams, and Garrett Cole, he has been a horse, especially in the postseason and especially against the Cleveland Guardians.
00:08McClaun pops it up, in on the knuckles, and that'll be Volpe to make the call and the catch, and that's how the night begins for Garrett Cole.
00:17Out number one here in game two, and a swing and a miss. Manzardo strikes out Garrett Cole with his first K, and he's retired the first two Cleveland hitters.
00:28As they were mirrors, guys, 1,000 OPS here at Yankee Stadium, not only that, 353 off Cole with two homers, so this is the guy to me that can spark the offense for the Guardians.
00:38Swung on, miss is lifted in the air, fairly deep right, Soto backpedals, makes the catch near the track and the cut of the grass, and that'll take care of Cleveland.
00:49And so Garrett Cole has a 1-2-3.
00:51For Cleveland, they go to the bottom of the first inning in game two, no score. The 25-year-old right-hander, 6-2-2-15.
00:59Klaber-Torres, the second baseman, leads it up.
01:023-1, and Torres whistles one down the line. That's gonna go to the wall. Klaber-Torres on his way to second base.
01:11Here is Juan Soto in his first career home run as a Yankee in the postseason.
01:16And Soto turns it around, he's in right field. Torres got a late break, he'll stop at third. Juan Soto, a single, makes it first and third, nobody out for Aaron Judge.
01:27A swing and a towering pop-up on the infield, near second base, the shortstop, Brian Rocchio, goes and drops the ball!
01:36It rolls into right, everybody is safe, a run scored! Oh my goodness, disaster in the Bronx.
01:45That'll be an error, no RBI, 1-0 New York, first and second with nobody out.
01:52Well, can Tanner Bybee minimize the damage? Wells, left-handed hitting catcher, now the 1-2 delivery.
01:58Swing and a miss, chase the high heat, Bybee gets a big strikeout.
02:03That is the first out in the inning, that'll bring up Giancarlo Stanton, now the 2-1 delivery, and Stanton.
02:10High fly ball, right field line, Wynn kind of holding it up, and Brennan goes down in the corner, that's an out in foul territory.
02:21What a great catch by Will Brennan.
02:24That's as big a play as you'll see an outfielder make in what is such a critical first inning.
02:31And Yankees stay at first and second, and now there are two men out.
02:36Swing and a miss, got him with that slider!
02:40They're trying to get it going, batting 167 with an RBI this October, now the 1-1 pitch.
02:46Swung on, line to right field, that's a base hit near the line, over to cut it off is Soto.
02:51Josh Naylor has a leadoff single here in inning number two, but Garrett Cole has faced Cleveland in the postseason four times, he's won all four.
03:00Thomas on the first pitch, a high fly ball, left center, and it'll be judged to make the call in the catch.
03:08Garrett Cole making his 20th career postseason start, his 10th as a Yankee, and he strikes out Will Brennan.
03:16Fastball, got him, second strikeout for Garrett Cole, two outs here in the second inning.
03:21Seventh hole, two and two to Jimenez.
03:25Jammed in, pop up, foul territory, might stay in play, it will.
03:30Rizzo is there, he makes the catch, and Garrett Cole works around a leadoff single by Josh Naylor.
03:36Typically win 24-9 their record this year, that includes his postseason starts.
03:43Right off the end of the bat, up the middle, and a base hit, just played a little pepper with it.
03:47Anthony Volpe with a leadoff single here in the second inning.
03:51Volpe dancing off first, here's a 2-1, and Rizzo slaps one back up the middle, a base hit.
03:57Volpe on his way to third now, throw comes in late, Anthony Volpe.
04:02First and third, nobody out, here's Alex Verdugo.
04:06Verdugo, fair ball down into the corner.
04:09Volpe scores, Rizzo on his way to third.
04:13Alex Verdugo, an RBI double, 2-0 Yankees in the second inning.
04:19Almost hit, big Garibaza down the third base line.
04:23Now the infield's in, and if Cleveland's not careful, this game could get away.
04:27The pitch to Glaber Torres, and it's swung on, popped him up.
04:31Playable first baseman Josh Naylor, even with the bag, makes the catch.
04:36One down.
04:37You know, you wonder right here, are we going to see?
04:40Call me crazy, but if there's one thing, guys, that might get Aaron Judge going, it could be this.
04:46An intentional walk.
04:47Yeah.
04:48Judge is not going to face Bybee, it's going to be Cade Smith, and it is on early.
04:53Here we go, Cade Smith against Aaron Judge, mano y mano.
04:58And Judge in the air, center field.
05:01Thomas makes a catch, that'll be plenty deep to get the run in.
05:05Rizzo scores, it's a sacrifice fly for Aaron Judge.
05:09Makes it 3-0, but it's the second out of the inning.
05:12Here's the 0-2 pitch.
05:14Swing, and a miss.
05:15Well, Cade Smith did his job, but the Yankees have built a 3-0.
05:20Barocchio batting, 4-21 the pitch.
05:23Swung on line drive, base hit to left center.
05:25Another terrific approach, as Brian Barocchio just took the pitch where it was and shot it the other way.
05:32Juan takes way inside, and he walked it.
05:34So the Yankees converge on the mound.
05:37Kyle Manzardo is the batter.
05:39Barocchio at second, Juan at first.
05:423-2 with Juan out.
05:43Here he comes, Manzardo, off the knuckles, a little pop-up to Chisholm.
05:48A foul pop for out number two.
05:51Garrett Cole stayed on him with the fastball, out at 98 miles an hour.
05:56Ramirez, this is where his team needs him right here.
05:59Here's a 1-1.
06:00And a high fly ball, center field, no problem for Judge.
06:04He's got it.
06:05The inning is over, and Garrett Cole works around some early tries.
06:091-0.
06:10Volpe singled and scored last inning.
06:13He swings and misses at the heat, right at the letters.
06:16Kate Smith continues.
06:18One of the most dominant Octobers we've ever seen a relief pitcher.
06:22Single off of Garrett Cole.
06:24Here we go to the fourth in game two.
06:26And Naylor on the first pitch lines one to right field.
06:29Another hit.
06:30Josh Naylor is two for two.
06:33Jumping on the first pitch from Garrett Cole.
06:35And a man is aboard in the fourth.
06:37Lane Thomas, a little half swing.
06:39Going to be a tough play here.
06:41And Chisholm cuts in front of Volpe.
06:44Everybody safe.
06:45Thomas can really run.
06:47They were going to have a hard time throwing him out anyway.
06:50Fastball up high.
06:51Ball four.
06:52He walked him.
06:53And now the baseline will pinch hit.
06:56This has the feel of a late-game scenario here.
07:00But we are only in the fourth.
07:02It's Fry jumping on the first pitch.
07:04A foul pop.
07:06Chisholm is under it.
07:07And what a two.
07:08If you're the Guardians, he is a hitter you want at the plate right now.
07:12He's cooking.
07:13It's number 70 here.
07:14And it's a goal.
07:15Strike three.
07:17Right on the edge.
07:19Roquio is upset.
07:20Borderline pitch goes Cole's way.
07:23And the Guardians strand the pitch.
07:25New York.
07:26And Soto steps in.
07:28Singled his first time up.
07:30They walked him intentionally last time to get to judge.
07:33Here comes the one-two.
07:35Swung on.
07:36Line on one hop to the second baseman Jimenez,
07:38who snares it and flips on to first.
07:40This pitch counts up to 70,
07:41but the bottom line is he has held the Guardians off the scoreboard.
07:45First man up, Stephen Kwan shoves one into left field, a base hit.
07:49Kwan, with another hit, extends his franchise record hitting streak.
07:55He's got 12 consecutive postseason games with at least one hit.
07:59But the hits are coming right now.
08:00Manzardo in the right field, a base hit.
08:02Kyle Manzardo singles.
08:04Back-to-back hits to start the inning.
08:07Three and one.
08:08Ramirez takes ball four,
08:10and the Guardians have him loaded now in the fifth inning.
08:13Garrett Cole will face Josh Naylor with the bases loaded.
08:17Nobody out.
08:182-0.
08:19Naylor a high fly ball to right.
08:22Soto will settle under it.
08:24Plenty deep to score Kwan.
08:26Throw goes to third base.
08:28Two runners advance.
08:29One of them scored.
08:30Sacrifice fly and an RBI for Josh Naylor.
08:343-2 is ball four.
08:35Garrett Cole loads the bases on a walk on his way to the mound
08:39to take out his ace in the fifth inning.
08:42Holmes has not given up a run in the postseason in his career.
08:46They are loaded up.
08:47Tying run at second base.
08:49Brennan on the ground.
08:50Rizzo clubs it, throws it out at second.
08:53A run will score.
08:54Wilbur delivers an RBI on a fielder's choice.
08:57Makes it 3-2, Yankees.
08:59The 3-0 delivery.
09:01Down low, ball four.
09:03And they pitched him carefully.
09:05That loads the bases again.
09:08With Austin Hedges up, the righty-righty matchup.
09:11This is the matchup Holmes wants.
09:13The 0-2 pitch lays off.
09:15What a play by Wells.
09:17Ramirez was way off the bag at third.
09:20Some play by Austin Wells.
09:22That saved a run.
09:23Brennan at second.
09:24Jimenez at first.
09:25And the 1-2 pitch and a swing and a miss.
09:28Clay Holmes strikes out Hedges for the second consecutive inning.
09:33The Guardians strike.
09:3424 homers in the regular season.
09:36Chisholm still having some trouble with his eyes.
09:39His eyes are watering because of the temperature.
09:423-2 pitch.
09:43In the air.
09:44The left field hit pretty well.
09:46Long run.
09:47Kwon.
09:48And Kwon can't get it.
09:49It's over his head.
09:50Chisholm rolls into second base with a double.
09:53He saw it well that time.
09:55Jazz Chisholm.
09:56The 3-1.
09:57Volpe takes ball four.
09:59A double and a walk.
10:00And the Yankees with 2-1.
10:02Nobody out here in the sixth inning.
10:05Chisholm starts then stops.
10:07And now a step off.
10:08Thrown to second.
10:09And out at second.
10:12Oh, man.
10:13What a big play.
10:14Zabrowski just stared him down patiently.
10:18So instead of first and second, nobody out.
10:21One away.
10:22Runner at first.
10:23Rizzo at the plate now.
10:25And the Guardians set up to turn a double play.
10:27One ball, one strike.
10:29Rizzo a liner.
10:30That is a fair ball.
10:32Hits the side wall.
10:34Volpe off to the races.
10:36He'll be held at third.
10:37And now the ball's bobbled.
10:39And Volpe's going to score.
10:41A gift.
10:42And the Yankees add to their lead 4-2.
10:46Mammoth mistakes here in the sixth by New York.
10:49And now by Cleveland.
10:51Glaiber Torres at the plate.
10:54Rizzo the runner at second.
10:56And Rizzo is going to be picked off.
10:58He's in the middle between second and third.
11:01Edges now throws to second.
11:03On the way to third.
11:05Back to second.
11:06Back to third.
11:07Tagged out.
11:08End of inning.
11:09Boy, if that wasn't the Yankees.
11:11That's what they do.
11:13Run the base.
11:15Oh, and to the count.
11:17On the crown.
11:18Right to Torres.
11:19Nice easy hop.
11:20And Tom McKinley does it again.
11:23Flawless in the post.
11:25More hits tonight.
11:26He's been swinging the bat so well.
11:28Yeah, Torres does on that pitch.
11:30And serves one to right.
11:32Glaiber Torres did his homework.
11:34Man, that was a beautiful piece of hitting.
11:37These big hitters, Soto, Judge, would not face the same pitcher twice.
11:42Yeah, it's four different pitchers Judge has seen tonight, guys.
11:46Judge is a high fly to center.
11:48Back goes Thomas.
11:50On the track.
11:51Near the wall.
11:52She's gone.
11:54Aaron Judge hit the ball so high you wonder.
11:57It came down in Monument Park.
11:59It's a Judgian blast.
12:02All rise.
12:03Here comes the Judge.
12:06This shows you how much, how beloved this guy is.
12:09This place just went wild.
12:11People jumping up and down all over.
12:14I think a lot of it is because of the frustration that they know
12:17that Judge has been going through.
12:19That was something, to see everyone in this place, I mean,
12:22jumping up and down.
12:24He starts off a lot of batters, 1-0, 2-0.
12:27A swing and a little sky ball to shallow center.
12:30Judge coming in to retire Kwan.
12:32We'll go to the bottom of the eighth, 6-2 New York.
12:35Well, the Yankees are now one inning away from taking upper 90s fastball.
12:40And a phenomenal changeup is coming on to pitch.
12:43Now the wind and 2-2.
12:45Swung on, hit in the air, toward the gap, left center.
12:48Line drive caught by Verdugo.
12:50The left fielder retires Manzardo.
12:53One down, here's Jose Ramirez.
12:55The pitch, and Ramirez drills one to deep right field.
12:58And this is gone.
13:00Jose Ramirez with a line drive, homer to right.
13:04It's his second this postseason.
13:06His first hit in the ALCS.
13:09And Cleveland trailing at 6-3 here in the ninth.
13:14And Luke Weaver has given up his first run in the Yankees' October postseason.
13:19What you hope now is that maybe gives him a little momentum going into game three.
13:25And Weaver will deal one-two to the lefty hitter.
13:29And he hits a ground ball to second.
13:32Luke flipped to first from Cleaver, and they're two in.
13:35Now here's a right-handed hitter, Lane Thomas.
13:39With two outs, no one on, and the Yankees are one out away.
13:43Now Weaver getting ready.
13:45Here's the one-two.
13:47A ground ball to third.
13:49Chisholm fields, fires across in time.
13:52Ball game over.
13:54Yankees win.
13:56The Yankees win.
14:00And promptly take a 2-0 lead in this best...
