    Looked to me like Judge had his mind made up, he had his blinkers on and was charging full speed... No one could have stopped him lol.

    Wow, Cole did a great job in an elimination game to just make the playoffs with his $300+ million.

    2021- No Cole... no Springer in the playoffs. This should be food for thought for Correa going forward. You want to have a chance at the ring every year then stay. If you want to cash out then leave.

    I like how they talked about how great Cole was in the beginning of the season then hang been the same since ... He I wonder why....."oh for Pete's sake" ring any bells?

    Not one mention of the sticky stuff.

    It really is a shame - it would have been much more satisfying with their own fans raining down the boos as they lost.

    Cole needs that sticky stuff.

    What a good night. Just need the Cardinals to eliminate the Dodgers now.

    I wonder how long the NY media goes nuclear? And who they will blame most? Cole will get his share, that is for sure.

    Manager Boone, who apparently has no idea where the Yankees have been for a decade or so:

    "The league has closed the gap on us..." (about 1:30 if you're interested)
