Castro’s 4 RBIs lift Eovaldi, Yankees over Orioles 7-1

It’s good to get him some runs early to give him some margin for error. “I’m waiting with a little anxiety on what’s going to show, especially this X-ray here”. So were Chris Davis and Manny Machado. He could be activated Sunday or Monday. And that’s all the Orioles really need; a NY team that suddenly becomes an underdog story and captures the attention of the nation as they come out of nowhere to get to the postseason.

Sabathia allowed one more hit through the next five innings, and he was one out away from stranding a pair of singles in the seventh. “It’s been frustrating because I feel like if we can get over that mark we can build on it”. I have taken professional writing and broadcasting courses at Hofstra and Fordham University, along with being the student director for MSG Varsity and Kings Park Productions at Kings Park High School.

In 6 2/3 innings, Sabathia gave up four runs, seven hits, walked one and fanned two.

“We’re major league players: Figure out a way”, center fielder Adam Jones said.

And they will have to score runs off of Michael Pineda in support of Yovani Gallardo.

Their starter, CC Sabathia, allowed three hits in the first inning, and the last was a bases-loaded, two-out, two-run single off the glove of Didi Gregorius. The loss snapped a four-game Yankees win streak, and provided an extra dose of reality for a team that still finds itself in fourth place in the AL East with a little more than a week until the August 1 non-waiver trade deadline.

On paper, the Yankees series seemed to be a golden opportunity for the Orioles to pad their lead in the American League East.

“We have to be positive”, Carlos Beltran said.

Mookie Betts homered on the first pitch Boston faced, David Ortiz added a late two-run homer and the Red Sox continued to surge through July.

That same illness has also reached manager Buck Showalter, with Orioles beat writers indicating that Showalter may not even serve as the O’s manager for the game.

WATCH: Should Yanks trade Chapman? The Yankees are 18-1 when all three relievers pitch in the same game. He threw five pitches of 104 miles per hour or higher, reaching 105.1 on his sixth pitch to J.J. Hardy — the fastest pitch in the majors since MLB’s Statcast system began measuring in 2015. He got Ryan Flaherty out on a grounder with a runner on first — the bouncing ball hit part of Flaherty’s shattered bat in the middle of the diamond before being easily handled.

“He was running that two-seamer in on us”, Jones said, “but to our credit we hit a lot of balls hard”.

Rodriguez turned on a 2-0 fastball from Gausman for his ninth home run leading off the second.

RAYS 11, ROCKIES 3: Chris Archer struck out 11 over six innings for his first win since June 6 and Tim Beckham had a career-high five hits for visiting Tampa Bay.

NY added insurance with a sacrifice fly by Gardner in the seventh and Beltran’s drive in the eighth.

NY got its other run via Brian McCann’s sacrifice fly in the third.

Rodriguez dived away of Gausman’s 98 miles per hour fastball headed for his head in the sixth — the pitch drew boos from the Yankee Stadium crowd.

Orioles: Kim will play in a simulated game Tuesday and the Orioles hope to decide after that whether to place him on the disabled list. “I need to make a better pitch right there and keep the game 2-1”.

Then general manager Brian Cashman into an auctioneer come the August 1 trade deadline, and fans will start their long gaze toward 2017 from their couches, likely with anything but the YES Network on the TV.
