Nestor Cortes and Juan Soto talk dreadful Yankees loss to Cardinals, Anthony Rizzo on return | SNY

What do you think that was a good team? I felt like the start of the series struggled a little bit with that and I was able to create some The Mists of pitches today. Some top plays out of the defense. Just how frustrating is that for you on the mound? When I think perhaps you're getting outs and it doesn't work out that way. I mean you know I'm trying to control what I can control. Other than that, once once the ball leaves my hand, and the pitch is made, you know, there's nothing I can do about it, whether whether there was or not, you know, possibly to catch it. I don't know. But I cannot control what the pitch. That's the moment. It seemed like the Rings really come down. They're in that fourth. And yeah, I feel like that but I kind of played a role in some of those displays enough work. Yes, tough. I mean I clearly saw the ground ball out of will be there's like had a bad hop and it's get it through his glove. I mean he makes that play 10 out of 10 times and other than that, for me, it's you know, what the time with the pitch clock and trying to get a grip and getting the signs from the catcher, it's just a lot when the rain is coming down. It's tough to keep the ball dry. There's so many elements that come into that and keep the ball Drive make and try to make them try and execute a pitch stuff. Where did you want that ball to Baker? I mean 32 he has made a couple, I think I made a couple of good pitches for him to fall off, didn't get a swing and Miss like we talked about earlier and I thought that side or just ran back into much on his back. Trying to win division here. The way the teams play the last week is that what do you think of the losing four or five overall, with how much you guys have an aligned right now? Yeah, I mean I think I've said it before but you know with as bad as people think we're playing and as bad as you know it might show that we're playing we're still with certain first place. So it goes to show that it's there for us to take just going to come out every day prepared and and be be ready to win every single day. Back out there. Yeah it's great. I mean I'll bend it a amazing job for us the time he was here research just Veteran presence that is going to get pitches and feel like contribute like you did today. I think he got three hits today. I don't know what it was but just just him being a lineup. Makes a line up a lot longer definitely a threat for the Home Run ball and you know it's fun to have them back there and obviously his defense is almost impeccable so it's great to have in their bubbles in the ball, off the bat that play in the second on the Donovan Bowl. They're saying, no, I saw it all the way I saw the wall the way, but definitely, when he hates it, I thought he was going to be like a high pop on and any fuel and then the boat just take off the wind helped a little bit to push the ball, even farther to the wall and I eat dates ended up out of my reach. Did you feel like when was an issue all day out there for? You know, they, the beginning of the game. Definitely, it was a little tricky with all the rain and the, and the wind and All the stuff in it. Can you kind of take me through that one? I mean, he just hate a long drive, he got a good B being and just went over my head. Is it today just the way that you guys came all the way back like you did, and then just have it fall apart so soon, right after that, you just part of baseball and then we grind through it. I think all friends, who were right there, we almost got the The Comeback set it up, but we fell short, definitely, they came out swinging the bat. Well today, I mean, they have two guys with two three guys before hit something like that, and it was They just beat us. Maybe hasn't been playing their best baseball, the last week. Tina is just part of baseball. You know, things are going to go open Downs all the way, but definitely, this is the right time to get hot and goes all the way to the end. It's not that easy that as it looks out there. So we definitely try and we all trying to win games. I bet you any of any of these guys in this club house, no one else wants to lose. I mean, everybody here has a goal. Then we all trying to win every day but things happens is inconsistency of surprise. You a little bit. When you see all the names that are about the lockers here. I mean no, no, no. We got some injuries throughout the year to so that's just kind of tough to take it but like I say base is baseball. It's you can't predict what is going to happen at the end of the year or was going to happen throughout the year. Definitely is going to be harder. So we just got to keep our head up and keep moving forward, but, you know, it's gonna be a big cities out there that we got to go through it and Take it and get moving. Just what have you been seeing lately? He's been swinging the bat. Well I mean you still hate me in d.c. He was swinging it about all over the field. I'm really happy for him. I feel like he's getting comfortable down there. He's have been the bottom of the lineup and more more excited to see what he can do. All the way to there. How nice was it? You get Anthony Rizzo back today. He's great, he's great. I mean, another bedroom player that knows what to do and big situations and he just showed up to that. I know the result wasn't there too much, but just a lot of fun being out there. A lot of Joy being out there. And definitely just felt normal being back, couple hits for you. Were you pleased with what you are seeing the ball? Well, yeah, I mean, I feel like I haven't seen her really well. Just coming back and hitting, and definitely felt comfortable in the batter's box. And it's good to get a couple results, early any hesitation at all with your arm when you're out there. You think about it at all? No, not really. I mean, maybe a little in the back there but I think when I played the first rehab, I've game it all that hesitation went away and I felt really good and feel really strong Understanding you just got back but this team is kind of struggled. The last week was in four or five to two teams at least start in the series work for under 500. Just, what do you make of the last week and how do you guys get yourselves back on track? That's just part of it. It's a, you know we we have the days are numbered now and every game is going to be more meaningful moving forward but you know teams are teams are really good competition. This year seems like it's better than ever everywhere. And I'm just going to lay down. How would you describe the weather being a? Doctor today in these early Innings, I was a tough for Nestor. They're kind of bad that bad skip that Volpe God. But I mean, there's all factors in this game and that's what makes it so beautiful.
