Rizzo and Wells sit vs LHP.
Berti and Trevino start.
Can Judge really end his post-season slump?
Over / Under: 0.5 IBB to Soto
Why do they need to play this game since Chisholm has guranteed a Yankees WS win?

Game on TBS at 5 pm
NEXT UP: Friday, October 18th, 8 pm, at Cleveland
very unfortunate that Cleveland won the game that I expected them to win, but which Cleveland should have ended up losing,
now I fear that Cleveland might win another game before losing the series
Today's Lessons:
1) Rizzo can't field
2) Wells can't hit
3) Holmes is.....well, Holmes
4) Weaver is overused
MEMO_
do not throw sinkers navel-high and down the middle
This is the problem with over-reliance on relief pitchers. The more guys you bring in the more likely you are to find the one (in this case two) guys who are going to blow the game for you.
A TERRIBLE LOSS.
Do the Yankees still have a comfortable lead as has been argued?
They might have exposed the Guardians' bullpen, but their own was as well.
