We won.
Your editor-in-chief started, went 5 innings, allowed 1 hit, walked 2, hit one, struck out 5. No runs.
Ethan went 2-for 2 with a walk. He doubled and tripled.
He scored three runs. He drove home 4.
As for the Yankees, as if that's more important, here's the lineup:
Brewers:
300 homers, and 19 of them in this ballpark in Milwaukee.
When Anthony Rizzo was with the Chicago Cubs, he ALWAYS, ALWAYS hit extremely well when playing in this ballpark. He demolished Brewers pitching every time he played against them in Milwaukee which was very often, since he played in the NL Central all those years he was with the Cubs. So it is not surprising that Rizzo would come out of his slump in THIS ballpark!
I hope Tonkin doesn't hanoi me again.
Excellent at-bat by the birthday boy, Anthony Volpe. Made them throw 9 pitches before getting that hit.
I guess Junk is throwing a lot of "junk" today.
