That is AWFUL from the umpire. The @AppleTV broadcast showed him saying the ball was low (it was), nothing more. Home plate umpire Vic Carrapaza repeatedly asked Boone what he said and then ran him from the game. That is so wrong. (Video via @DanAlanRourke)
Gerrit Cole worked into and out of trouble, with some help from Chisholm Jr. at second base smothering a ball off the bat of Jesús Sánchez:
A nine-pitch first inning around a one-out walk for Cole. He got Gurrerro Jr. to ground into a 6-4-3 DP to end the inning.
ESPN needs to cool it with the short porch talk because the homers from the Mariners are to RF. According to Statcast, all three home runs would be out in at least 20, if not more, ballparks in the sport.

George Lombard Jr. had a debut out of a storybook. He showed #Yankees fans what a shortstop looks like. More about the #Yankees top prospects debut: the-city-limits-coverage-pod.ghost.io/george-lomba... @ibwaa.bsky.social
Brian Cashman told @WFAN660 that they have a date for Judge’s re-imaging, but out of respect for Judge, the team looks to keep that internal now. Cashman added that the organization is operating under the belief that both Judge and Stanton will return in 2026.
This should be concerning. Schlittler's velocity is down overall today, and even more in the second
PCA Walked when he should have struck out in the at-bat, if not for missed calls
Rival Teams view the Yankees as a fit for Daulton Varsho, per @bnsbaseball.bsky.social via the JD Bunkis Podcast:
#Yankees Today (if played) Game 106/162 *Max Schuemann leads off *Spencer Jones in CF *Ben Rice at DH, Goldschmidt at 1B *Fried's second start off the IL
Cape Cod for the weekend! (I will NOT have coverage of the Yankees series in Philly)
Jose Caballero has wiped his Instagram account and posted this on his story:
Great play by Bellinger and great tag by Jazz here to get the first out:

#Yankees Today (100/62): *Caballero at SS *Goldschmidt get the start against a lefty *Wells catching
That was awful. Muncy battled against Schlittler and popped the ball up. Max Schuemann lost the ball in the sun and Jazz thought Shuemann had it. It dropped for a double.
