00:00Let's start with the Yankees last night. How about the Bombers, who have been rolling right now?
00:07They beat the Angels 3-2. And you did say yesterday, you wanted one of the two guys.
00:12We weren't sure who was going to be in the lineup. They actually both ended up being in the lineup.
00:16And Dominguez sat. But sure enough, Ben Rice on the Yes Network. Big fly to right field.
00:25Drive, right field. Adele back, turning, looking, see ya!
00:30A home run for Ben Rice. And the Yankees lead 1-0 on the long solo shot.
00:37What has he got, 11 now? Rice-A-Roni, we ring the bell again. Ding, ding.
00:44Ding, ding for Rice-A-Roni there last night.
00:47But really, I thought the story of the game, Scotty, was Carlos Rodon.
00:52Who has really changed, not just my opinion, but many Yankee fans' opinion of him since he signed here a couple years ago.
00:59Looked awful that first year. Seven shutout innings. Ten strikeouts.
01:05Has a 1.27 ERA in his last eight starts. He's got 90 strikeouts now this year.
01:11That is second in the American League to Scooble.
01:13Stunning to me how good he has been when they've needed him the most, right?
01:21Like, they needed someone to really step up with Cole not pitching this year.
01:26And he's now earning every dollar, that huge contract the Yankees gave him a couple years ago.
01:30Listen, I'm going to go, so, Rodon, Street Chicken, Warren, and then I'm going to say, Yarbrough has blown my mind.
01:42And then I'm going to say that we already knew Dreamweaver was great.
01:46And I think that Williams has found his stuff.
01:50He was, like, the most abused Yankee.
01:52Bar none, they were abusing him.
01:54The media, the fans, giving him the business.
01:56They pulled him from the closer role.
01:59And as the setup guy, like, last night he closed the game.
02:03And as the setup guy, he's been next to brilliant since they gave him that job.
02:08I think the reason the Yankees are so good this year is pretty simple.
02:13Judge and the others that have been able to pop, like Rice-Aroni and Goldschmidt,
02:20and it's more so the pitching, the starting pitching and their relief in the back end of that bullpen
02:26is as good as it gets in baseball.
02:29That's why the Yankees have a huge lead and why they're winning in sweeping series.
