The New York Yankees won their second game in a row, and Clarke Schmidt pitched through six innings for the first time in his career! So they are guaranteed a series win and will go for the sweep on Wednesday. We discuss the highlights of the game, including the big third inning when the Yankees scored five runs. We talk about the impact of having Aaron Judge in the lineup and how it helps the Yankees. Also, Tuesday was the first time Harrison Bader and Judge were in the lineup together all season. Then we discuss the bullpen situation. The Yankees don’t have a closer. Or at least they haven’t named anyone officially, so we go through the candidates and give our thoughts about who has the best chance of getting the job. And we preview the pitching matchup between the A’s and Yankees in the finale.
