00:00For Lugo, who's pitching for the Royals tonight, judges 0 for 8 with 3 strikeouts.

00:08So he has not gotten a hit off of Seth Lugo in his career.

00:12I mean, few have here done well against Lugo on the Yankees.

00:16Chisholm Jazz is 1 for 11 with 5 strikeouts, Stanton 3 for 14 with 6 strikeouts.

00:23Soto is 5 for 18, but he has struck out a bunch against him, does have one homer.

00:28You know, it's not pretty.

00:31Let's just say that.

00:32Some of the history against Lugo, who as you know, Scott, he's been very good for the Royals.

00:36Was good last week as well for them in Houston.

00:39Or, you know, yes, in Baltimore.

00:43Yeah, listen, I'm scared to death of this team tonight at that place, at the K.

00:49You know what it reminds me of?

00:51It reminds me of the way they play in Anaheim and at the Ashtray in Oakland.

00:57You go to Kansas City and they lay eggs there as well, right?

01:01Like, have you ever seen them dominate at Kansas City?

01:05I haven't.

01:07And they've been in all kinds of games there over the years, playoff games or otherwise.

01:11That ballpark's been there for 50 years.

01:14It's one of the oldest ballparks in Major League Baseball.

01:17And it's a house of horrors as far as I'm concerned.

01:20I'm scared to death of the game.

01:23And I'm scared to death of Clark Schmidt.

01:25I'm scared to death of Lugo.

01:26I'm scared to death to just even watch the game because I know I'm going to lose my temper.

01:31Every time I watch him, I lose my temper.

01:33When I watch this guy bat and swing and miss by a foot on every pitch, I don't even recognize

01:38him.

01:39I don't even...

01:40That's...

01:41It's not him.

01:42It's...

01:43It's a wax doll.

01:44I don't know what it is.

01:45It's Madame Tussauds.

01:46I don't know who this guy is.

01:47That's not Aaron Judge.

01:49The guy had 144 RBIs.

01:52I mean, the guy hits 320.

01:54The guy hits 58 homers.

01:55And he goes into postseason, he can't lift a ball out of the infield.

01:59It strikes out every time he's up.

02:01Misses every pitch by a foot.

02:03Nobody else on that team can hit.

02:05It's unbelievable what happens to them when he gets shut down, they get shut down.

02:10I am very worried.

02:12I'd buy the Royals tonight.

02:14Now watch the Yankees win by seven run.

02:16Listen, this has...

02:18It's getting the feel of the same thing we've seen with the Yankees in the playoffs.

02:24The last five, six years, they just don't hit when the money gets put on the table in

02:32the postseason.

02:33They are favored, though, tonight on the road in Kansas City.

02:36They're minus a buck 20 right now.

02:38The Royals are even money.

02:40And this, our biggest total of the day, an eight and a half.

02:43The book's expecting some runs between these two.

02:46Yeah, well, what do you think?

02:50I think runs as well based on who's pitching.

02:53But, you know, I don't know.

02:56I don't think the Yankees are going to be the ones scoring runs.

03:01As pessimistic and as much as I drag the Yankees around here, especially over the past couple

03:07of years, I just feel like they're going to find a way tonight in Kansas City.

03:15I'm actually taking the Yankees tonight.

03:17I do think they're going to win.

03:21And then I do think, how about this?

03:22I'll give you one more.

03:23I think if they win tonight, Cole will pitch great tomorrow and shut down Kansas City and

03:27end it in four.
