Rockies vs. Yankees Game Highlights (8/25/24) | MLB Highlights

The Rockies and the Yankees one more time. Marcus Stroman has taken his place on the mound coming off to good back to back starts. Only given up one earned run. Charlie Blackman who has faced Stroman dozen times hitch outside ball four. What? An at bat 11 pitches and Charlie Blackmon draws an opening walk. Ezekiel Tovar. Couple of doubles yesterday grounded sharply diving stop by up to his feet and the ball gets away from moving to third is Blackman and the Yankees can't complete that play across the diamond and the Rockies have runners at the corners. Nobody out a tremendous stop and he got a lot on the throw. It just kind of short hop DJ Lema. He plays, that is going to make even better when he plays more. Third base. Doyle has a chance to get the Rockies ahead early like they did yesterday. This could be two. There's one and the pro gets him for the can as Blackman scores to give the Rockies a 10 lead. You take a double play for a run in the first inning DJ lost contact with the bag. The run scores. Torres throw was to the outside. I think you're right, Paul, even if his foot is on the back, it looked like he hit the base, he's clearly safe there. So this is going to be overturned and Marcus is going to have to try to get another ground ball, double play. The fielder's choice, 64, the force at second. And it's one nothing rockies with Doyle at first base and he has 25 stolen bases. So that presents a bit of a problem as well. Chop the third and booted there by Chisholm. He recovers throws the first, not in time to be the second error in the inning on Jazz Chisholm. Everybody safe. It's very hard in the day to pick up the game and he got caught in between kind of backing up on that ball and Then he did short hop and nothing too well struck this inning from the ball in play. Now, Brendan Rodgers, the right hitter steps in swing and a tip into the glove of Trevino and down goes Rogers for out number two. Another big out for Strom just trying to basically do some damage control via who's reached as we told you in 18 straight. And in this situation can't rush things. I mean, he's got to set guys up to get that big out because, you know, you don't want to let this game get out of hand early looped into center field coming on as judge he's there to make the play. So Stroman avoids any further trouble but the Rockies score a run does get his walk to start the bottom half of the first innings. Juan Soto Over makes the catch. Torres returns to first. Here's Aaron Judge, he's looking to have his 3rd 50 or more home run season. Now. He's at 49 right now. High fly ball center. See you. I'm gonna give him a solid treatment because you know what , I'm really out of work. So I don't know what else to say other than to listen to you say C A stays back on it. So well, if he gets his arms extended where he hits the ball major league history with at least three seasons of 50 or more. Home runs. 31 to CHS is pulled to a diving to, gets up, throws to go just in time to get Chisholm. Another nice play by Michael to two up, two down for go in the second, popped up. Shallow center coming on is so the game giveth and taketh away that time, a base hit for DJ right in front of K who plays it on a hop for go up to second and the Yankees have two on two out. That's a DJ. Swing Yankees flip the order with two on two out. It's Glaber who walked his first time in front of the judge home run line drive. It's a base hit for torres PDU go round. He's coming home. Here's the RB I single for Torres and the Yankees lead three to one now, two on two out again. And Juan Soto base hit off the bat of SOTO. He's coming home. Here's the throw in. Time moves to third. That's an RB I single for SOTO. And the, and they're jumping right on the first pitch with this guy because they have got some kind of pattern here. The yanks ambushing go here. Third two out hit to center that's pretty well struck. But do is going to get to this and make the catch for the third out with two outs. The Yankees score pair after two lead it 41 is five ground balls out of the nine balls put in play. So over the half, over half of the balls that have been hit on the ground, jake Cave in a line drive to the right fielder soto his first time up. This is over the head of Stroman and will be not in time. According to Marvin Hudson, it'll be the Yankees turn to see if they want to challenge. This looks like the Yankees are going to challenge though. I know if there's enough to overturn it, but it does look like the ball entered the glove before K's foot hit the base. The Rockies get another infield hit, they get the rookie Drew Romo Drew struck out his first time up. Switch hitter, batting left handed base hit here to right Soto charges cave heading to the plate. The throws off line Romo to second and he is out. But the run scores RB I single. The first RB I for Drew Romo and the Rockies are down to a walk issue to do but the Rockies with the potential tying run at the plate with two outs here in the fifth ryan Mcmahon, he drives it down the right field. It will rattle around in the corner. Doyle's going to be waved around. Soto's relay throw is not going to be a good one and Brenton Doyle scores from first on an RB I double by ryan Mcmahon. So the two hour walk comes back to be eight straight wide ones. It may have been being cautious with judge who hit the homer. Here's Stanton, a laser to center in the first inning. He was caught looper into shallow left who's gonna get it? No dunks in there for base hit and the bases are loaded. Yankees advance and he took a shot on that broken bat. He might have got some shrapnel off that bat bat broke and it clobbered nick on the side of his head. I mean, that is a jam shot. The, the barrel came all the way around and, and hopefully hit the side of his mask, but couldn't tell if they got under it. How about the kindness, the immediate kindness of Romo to turn around in the middle of a play that's going on Then he realized I better see what's going on here. Yeah, Stanton was left with just the really the knob of the bat in his hands down below the trademark nick Marley. The home plate umpire was hit with part of the bat from John Collar Stanton's swing. It just broke and it was looked like a little javelin and it came back and it hit him on the back of the neck and on the head and now he's got, they've got him braced and he is being taken off the field on a stretcher during the break. In addition to talking to Aaron Judge, a bunch of fans came down and Spiked and Marvin Hudson, the crew chief has put on the home plate umpire one out with bases loaded. Really do some damage here only up a run now, big spot here for Jazz Chisholm Junior. 12 pitch swing and a miss came back with the curveball and got him for the second out shortstop. Anthony got him twice, a fly ball and a strikeout. Volpe hits it to Tovar at short Ezekiel over to first and the Yankees leave them loaded. Good work by austin four, three lead series finale as we stretch in the Bronx here, the bat of so head to the bleachers, a long home run and SOTO hit that slider 418 ft. There was no doubt about that high fly ball right field. He's on the track judge home run number 51. So the two of them have gone back to back now, six times tied for the most in franchise. How many times this season have we seen one? Soto and Aaron Judge go back to back 5051 on the same day and he goes back to back dynamic duo with SOTO deep to center field. Still back, draft one. See ya. Oh, it's a magda in park. Not a show now. He's swinging the bat. You've got three guys at, on any given day on one swing can put one in the seats. What a fun inning for the Yankees is two on and one out here in the eighth leading 7 to 3 first have to deal with Clay for Torres driven deep to left field, fair ball. It's trouble into the seats. A three run home run for Torres and the Yankees are off three C. Torres is your new leadoff hitter. He's had great at bats as far as working to count and now a big three run homer, Tim Beza takes over the left hander and he has the bottom of the Rockies lineup , high fly ball right field, the ball game. Yankees win 10, 3 runs, three in a row from so to judge and Stanton, just a remarkable performance. Judge with two more home runs. 50 one on the year.
