    Plus in the playoffs you get a 2nd challenge if your first challenge fails. Can't take those challenges with you.

    Cortez and maybe give them one more inning and then that's it.

    I predict a Yankees bullpen implosion.

    for such a big tradition, I'd be surprised if they skip any sort of celebration whether its in the home locker room or plane headed to houston. This game looks like its going to end pretty early too

    Hoping that doesn't happen. An ALCS victory isn't as sweet without eliminating them.

    Also the media will hype up this series more if it's the Yanks vs Astros vs Guardians vs Astros.

    Easier for the yanks to forego the tradition, who have had the experience before.

    True, but a longer game favors us either way. I hope it's not this easy the whole game.

    Don't the managers get a look at the replay before they make the call to challenge? Seems like a pretty bad mistake to me.

    Cleveland has scored 17 runs in 7 playoff games. Toronto or Seattle would have a better chance vs. the hated Yankees.

    Cortez only threw 61 pitches. He will probably be fine during the ALCS.

    Ok, time for a new narrative? In leau of a long drawn out battle, the yanks win quickly and easily, and thus are lured into a false sense of security. Seduced by their lowered inhibitions, they proceed to get super krunk tonight and show up to the Juice Box hungover.

    Works for me.

    Will Ramirez play the part of Bregman?
