Recovery on a night of 20 pitches is pretty fast, why he pitched him again.

It all worked out in the end. Just sad they are going to win the series in NY and not at home.

Pitchers are like the goalies in hockey. I get it, probably want to say catchers.

Above all else though, they are all liable to explode and are fully insane.

Man that was a a stressful 9th inning for sure. But it does seem to be true, outside of Soto and Stanton, their hitting has been shit. Judge has been an absolute non existence so far, and I really hope that just continues throughout!

2-0 going back to NY, amazing start.

~48 hours is a lot of time for rest and therapy (relatively speaking). I wouldn't expect to see any steal attempts from him for the rest of the series though.

Thank Christ for that win

Idk why Roberts went with Treinen again after he pitched two innings yesterday

Im beginning to believe coaching doesn’t really matter in baseball. Robert’s history of flubbing decisions is well known. I can’t believe he let Treinen continue pitching after he plunked Rizzo to load the bases. 100% thought this was going to be his Grady Little moment. Then he gets bailed out because Treinen got a strikeout on a clear ball.

Other side you have Boone who elects to put in a pitcher who hasn’t pitched in over a month in the most important moment of game 1, with predictable results.

Both coaches trying their best to lose games only to have their players bail them out, at least in Robert’s case.

Don't forget that Roberts also put in Graterol after he hadn't pitched in almost a month also.

It still blows my mind, Boone went with Cortes over Hill - who is a submariner/side-armer who is significantly harder to pickup on, especially for left-hander hitters.

If there is any evidence as to how much managing a game matters, this series is it. Both of these guys should be hyper-thankful they have been allowed to continue managing their respective franchises.
