Nestor Cortez has a 123 1st inning Yankees coming to bat for the first time and they're doing it against kevin Stone. This is one of the most improved pitchers in baseball. Anthony Wolpe leads it off for the yanks, the righty deals and Wolpe laces one into right field for a base hit. So the on base streak quickly stretches to 34. Here's Alex Verdugo, the ex Dodger ground ball left side and base hit for Verdugo back to back opposite field singles for the Yankees to start the night set the table for judge. He's got a 33 game on base streak going coming in here gets away with this one here, got away with a couple to judge in that at bat, Andy Paez for the first out Volpe the third. Tonight's clean up hitter, Giancarlo Danton pop up right side of the infield.

Tapton play to second. They go to second for one bets to first to double play with the tying run scores as Labor torres comes in from third and it's 1 to 1.I think they're going to challenge. It was a close play. New York is challenging the I call at second and the call at first base is confirmed out first overturned runner.
