Carlos Rodon will take the mound for the
0:03
Yankees here in the series opener. It's
0:05
his final start of the first half. And
0:07
after today's announcement, Rodon could
0:09
find his way on the mound in Tuesday's
0:12
Major League All-Star game at Truist
0:14
Park in Atlanta, Georgia. It was
0:16
announced that Rodon would be an
0:18
all-star replacement for Max Freed.
0:19
The Allstar Carlos Rodon making his 20th
0:22
start of the season, 9 and six, 3.30,
0:25
many more strikeouts than innings
0:27
pitched. given off to left field. On the
0:29
run is Dominguez and he runs it down for
0:32
number one. Here's Kyle Tucker.
0:34
Tucker laces one the other way. And Kyle
0:37
with a good start, but for a guy that is
0:39
known as knowing the strike zone,
0:41
doesn't chase and he walks a lot. He can
0:44
be hyper aggressive
0:46
and he goes down on strikes.
0:48
We talk about that good slider when he
0:50
can get ahead. He can just bury that
0:52
down and into righties.
0:54
Here's Carson Kelly.
0:55
Got it hard towards second. Jazz ranges
0:57
to his left. He blocks it. Picks it up.
0:59
Throws. Got him. Jazz recovers. Gets a
1:02
hustling Kelly and polishes off a
1:04
scoreless first inning for Carlos Rodan.
1:06
Well, here goes Chris Flexon who's done
1:08
a great job for the Cubs out of the
1:10
bullpen. This will be his first start
1:11
this year. 18th appearance in that 083
1:14
RA. Second best in MLB for pitchers with
1:16
at least 30 innings pitched. Strike
1:18
three. Got him. Dominguez is gone. And a
1:21
good start for Flexen. So Jud won the
1:24
game yesterday with the sack fly by his
1:26
78th ribby of the season. 349 career
1:29
home runs and he works the wall. And
1:32
here's the former Cub Cody Bellinger.
1:34
15game hitting streak. His second one of
1:36
the year.
1:36
The Cub people have nothing but good
1:38
things to say about Bellinger.
1:39
22 lifted in the air out to center field
1:42
and Bellinger tries his old friend Pete
1:45
Crow Armstrong. You know Pete's excited
1:48
about playing in this atmosphere. here.
1:50
He came over from the New York Mets
1:52
organization. Ben Rice drives one in the
1:54
air deep left field. Back goes Suzuki
1:57
with a play. Makes the catch on the
1:59
track to end the trade deadline's coming
2:02
up and this is a cautionary tale. The
2:04
Mets traded Pete Curl Armstrong to get
2:07
two months of Jav Bias.
2:09
Mhm.
2:09
Then they didn't resign him and this guy
2:11
has blossomed into an Allstar. Swing and
2:14
a miss.
2:15
Sinker down and in and Rodon buries BCA.
2:18
What a way in the second. 3-2 in there
2:21
strike recall 95 cheddar from Carlos
2:24
Rodon Swanson not happy chatting with
2:27
home plate on Paul Clemens who's shaking
2:29
his head just a couple of words from
2:30
Danby Swanson swing and a miss strike
2:33
three there's that Rodon slider four
2:35
strikeouts Carlos Rodon
2:37
so John Birdie leads the Cub third
2:40
inning off with a single
2:41
there's Kyle Tucker now singled his
2:43
first time John no score in the third
2:45
and down goes Tucker and a stolen base
2:47
for Birdie no throw And that'll bring up
2:49
Suzuki to Suzuki is hit in the air
2:53
behind second. Jazz out. Judge and it's
2:56
Chisel that makes the catch for the
2:57
third out. Oswald PZA the nine hitter.
3:00
Flex and delivers and it's swung on. And
3:02
a tough hop at third base. Nice play by
3:05
the third baseman. Close at first. He's
3:07
safe. So PZA beats it out. A nice play
3:10
on a very tough hop by John Birdie. But
3:13
the throw is just a little late. Here's
3:16
Jason Dominguez. That's ripped into
3:18
right center field. It's a base hit.
3:20
Parazza going to third. The throw is cut
3:23
off by Swanson and Dominguez with a
3:25
single. Yankees are set up first and
3:27
third. Nobody out for Judge.
3:29
Captain walked his first time.
3:31
2-1.
3:33
He goes that way.
3:35
Tucker a long run toward the line and he
3:38
hauls it in tagging PZA. He will score.
3:42
Tagging and going to second, Dominguez.
3:45
So it's a sack cry for judge and it's a
3:47
one- nothing lead.
3:49
Well, Ky Tucker is such a good
3:50
outfielder, but this is kind of an
3:52
ill-advised throw. Really no chance on a
3:55
dead run to try to throw PZA out at home
3:58
plate and then it allows Dominguez to go
4:00
into second by advancing there. Now you
4:03
got another runner in scoring position.
4:05
And now it's Cody Bellinger. Bellinger 0
4:07
for one.
4:08
Highfly ball. Tucker back. He's on the
4:12
track. He's at the wall.
4:15
See youa a 16game hitting streak a
4:18
two-run home run and it's three nothing
4:20
Yanks.
4:21
Cody Bellinger is 14th of the year. Bid
4:24
his old teammates here.
4:25
Bellinger says sorry boys love being
4:28
with you but I'm a Yankee now. Three
4:30
nothing New York. The belly bomb to
4:32
right
4:33
going into the top of the fourth. Carson
4:35
Kelly leads off.
4:38
Lost one right side. Judge toward the
4:41
line. He's there. One out. So on one
4:44
pitch, Carson Kelly is out.
4:45
PCA struck out in the second. Highfly
4:48
ball right field and deep going back.
4:50
Judge
4:52
leaps
4:54
and he makes the play. He took the home
4:56
run away from Carl Armstrong.
4:59
Well, being 67 helps at the wall too,
5:01
Michael. It's not only adds power and
5:03
things, but you know, I would think
5:05
Armstrong thought he had this one. Yeah,
5:07
easily a home run. Almost fan
5:10
interference, but Aaron Judge gets to
5:12
the wall early. That's the key. You can
5:14
kind of time your jump. Great play.
5:16
Foul chanting MVP. Here comes Judge.
5:20
Putting on a show
5:21
this time right above the ground coming
5:25
in and going forward. And another
5:27
tremendous play by Judge. How about
5:29
that?
5:30
And Carlos Rodan just threw his hands
5:32
out like, "What can't you do?" Har
5:35
Bellinger extended his hitting streak to
5:37
a career-high 16 straight with the
5:39
two-run home run to right. 14th home run
5:41
of the year now 50 ribbies on the
5:43
season. High drive right field. Tucker
5:46
back trap wall. See youa. What a shot by
5:50
Bellinger. Another two-run blast. Five
5:54
nothing Yanks. First multi home run game
5:57
here in pinstripes. Putting on a show
5:59
for his old team.
6:00
Look at the smile on his face in that
6:02
dugout. Just three hits for the Cubs in
6:04
five and two/3 innings against Roggon.
6:06
Named to the American League All-Star
6:07
team today as Matt Freed has been taken
6:10
off the roster and replaced by his
6:11
teammate has Suzuki down on strikes.
6:14
Rodon says goodbye. Overpowered 12 in a
6:18
row for Carlos Rodon.
6:19
Paul Goldman who feasts on lefties. He
6:22
leads off a 410 hitter against
6:24
left-handed pitcher. Line drive. It is a
6:26
base hit down the right field line and
6:28
into the right field corner. Goldmans
6:31
first heading to second. The throw from
6:32
Tucker is not in time. It's a leadoff
6:36
double for Goldmid.
6:37
They know that's a very productive out.
6:39
But Goldmith up to third with one away.
6:42
And field comes in Anthony Vulpi. Runner
6:44
at third. One away. Five nothing Yankee
6:46
lead.
6:46
Line drive. Base hit down the left field
6:49
line and into the corner. Scoring easily
6:51
is Goldmid. Valky hustling to second and
6:54
he has an RBI double and the Yankees
6:56
have a 6 nothing lead.
6:58
Giving him a cushion. Roads run with it.
7:00
the formula for success.
7:02
Obviously, the offense and Bellinger's
7:03
two home runs from Rodon's been
7:05
extraordinarily good. Strike three. He
7:08
has just flit the Cubs. They're just off
7:10
balance.
7:11
Yeah, right there. I mean, you know, you
7:13
can see why the way he took that. He's
7:15
looking for that slider down and in,
7:17
which Rodon loves to throw with two
7:20
strikes, but he mixed it up. Forcing
7:22
fast ball up at him.
7:23
Swung on and lined to short. Pulpy with
7:26
a catch. Rodon 15 in a row. Stretch time
7:31
in the Bronx. Yankees comfortably up six
7:34
to nothing. Here's Bellinger. He's never
7:36
had a three home run game. He's had 18
7:38
multi- home run games. Driven deep to
7:41
right field.
7:44
That close as Tucker took the home run
7:46
away.
7:47
Goodness.
7:48
Wow.
7:48
The right fielder makes the catch. Kyle
7:51
Tucker just robbed him of his third
7:54
belly bomb of the night. What a play.
7:56
There's a fan that almost tried to grab
7:59
the ball out of his glove.
8:01
Wow. I mean, this isn't like earlier in
8:03
the game. Aaron Judge had a highf fly
8:05
ball in time to get there, Tucker. This
8:07
was a line drive. Well, you've seen some
8:10
great defensive plays over the wall here
8:12
in Yankee Stadium tonight. Bellinger
8:14
said, "You know, you started this stuff,
8:16
huh?"
8:17
Yeah. He got the idea from you. And now
8:18
Goldman gets another swing against a
8:21
lefty. Doubled his last time up. Ground
8:23
ball through for a base hit. Bryce
8:25
rounds third. He's coming home and the
8:28
throw is not nearly in time. It's an RBI
8:31
single for Goldmid. It's 7 nothing
8:34
Yanks. The Yankees have scored five or
8:36
more runs in 10 straight games. That's
8:38
their longest streak since July of 2012.
8:41
Wow. Base hit.
8:44
Grounding third and heading home is
8:46
Chisum. He'll score without a throw.
8:47
It's an RBI single for Escara. Yankees
8:51
pouring it on. They lead eight nothing.
8:53
Another great at bat. A lefty on lefty
8:56
asar just stays in there. Pick up the
8:58
ball late and just put it in play. Finds
9:00
the left field line. A three hit shut
9:03
out at this point by the left-hander
9:04
Carlos Rodon up the middle. Chism. Oh,
9:08
what a pick and he throws to first. And
9:11
it's picked by Goldman to get Turner
9:14
and he is just doing great things at the
9:16
plate and defensively from an in between
9:19
hop. He's so athletic. He knows, you
9:21
know, he can just flip it over there and
9:23
bounce it.
9:23
Here's Nico her. Rodon's pitch to her is
9:27
hit into the alley in right center. It
9:29
gets past Judge. Bellinger goes to get
9:31
it. They're going to hold him to a
9:33
single. To third goes Birdie, but her
9:36
got one just out of the reach of Judge
9:38
in right center. The ball bounced.
9:41
He's going to leave him in. Aaron Boon
9:43
looked him in the eye and said, "Can you
9:44
give me one more? Can you get one more
9:46
out?" Rodonaldo, of course, said yes. So
9:49
they want the lefty against the lefty
9:51
Tucker. Tucker one for three against
9:54
Rodon. And the payoff.
9:57
That one's driven to right field. On the
9:59
run is Judge. And he dives. And he makes
10:03
the play. Aaron Jud makes the play.
10:08
Another sparkler by the Yankee captain.
10:10
Brod's night is over. The Cubs eighth is
10:13
over. Oh, what a play by the captain.
10:16
And the Yankees will go back to the
10:18
dugout to congratulate both Rodon and
10:21
Judge.
10:22
That meant a lot to Aaron Judge.
10:23
Everybody on that field knew that Carlos
10:26
Rodon needed one more out to get through
10:28
that eighth inning.
10:29
And the payoff.
10:32
He walked them.
10:33
Cody's got a couple of homers, two belly
10:35
bombs, and was robbed of a third by Kyle
10:37
Tucker. Highway robbery.
10:40
Highfly ball right field. Tucker back.
10:43
He's on the track. So is the center
10:45
fielder who leaps and that ball is gone.
10:48
A two-run home run by Bellinger. His
10:51
third home run of the night. Oh, what a
10:54
night for Bellinger in his 10 nothing
10:58
Yanks.
10:59
And you had to wait and see if this one
11:00
got taken away again.
11:02
So close to a four home run game.
11:04
Wow.
11:05
A three belly bomb night for Cody. And
11:08
they wanted to come out. There he goes.
11:10
There it is to the avation from the
11:12
fans.
11:12
Can't be hotter than that guy right now.
11:14
Wow,
11:15
what an at bat for Rice.
11:17
That'll go into the corner. Tucker plays
11:19
it out there and Rice has himself a
11:22
double. And the Yankee offensive attack
11:25
has no mercy. Showing no mercy here
11:27
tonight against Wicks.
11:29
Line drive. Another base hit against a
11:32
lefthander. Three hits for Goldman. He's
11:34
going for two. The throw from Suzuki is
11:37
not in time. Rice scores. Another RBI
11:40
for Goldmid. And it's 11 nothing
11:43
Yankees. Yankees scored three in the
11:45
third, two in the fifth, one in the
11:47
sixth, two in the seventh, three here in
11:49
the eighth. You add it up, it's 11 runs.
11:52
What a night for Rodon. What a night for
11:54
Bellinger. What a night with the glove
11:57
for Aaron Judge. Here's Dansby Swanson.
12:00
Did he go?
12:02
Yes, he did. Swanson down on strikes.
12:04
And the Yankees with a combined shut out
12:07
against the Cubs. And Cody Bellinger,
12:10
one of the best games of his career. His
12:11
first three home run game just missed by
12:14
an eyelash. A four home run game. What a
12:17
night for the Yankees. What a night for
12:18
Bellinger.
