Yankees MUST Respond After Judge Hit 

Yankees are 21st in getting HBP per Baseball Reference. Hit 25 times, league leader is at 52, league average is 31 and the lowest is 21. So Yankees are close to the bottom, despite being 21st. In issuing HBPs, Yankees are third with 40. Highest is 46, lowest is 20 and again average is 31. The Yankees should be focused on hitting less players, not more. Bunch of crybabies

What are these guys talking about? Look at a stat sheet. Yankees hit more players thany any team in the American League. Every team in the league should be throwing at the Yankees based on the logic being explained in this video.

I would love to see Henderson charge the mound and F up Cole. That is a big Country Boy ha ha

Yankees have hit the Os 8 times . How about you grow up and stop advocating for hitting batters.

Cole gets tossed if he hits an Oriole because you guys are talking it up so much so now the umps won't even give a warning, immediate ejection.

I agree, focus on beating them, right now. Cole is just coming off an injury, the focus should be him, progressing as cleanly as possible. Purposefully hitting someone, that puts someone on base and extending an inning, doesnt feel like the move right now to me.

CC 1000% would throw at someone . He would always be the first guy to throw at someone to protect the guys. Reasons CC is so well respected when he played plus I wouldn’t want to mess with him cause he was a big dude but still you gotta protect your guys especially a guy like Judge.

O's hit only 23 batters, Yankees lead the AL with 42 some hit batters. Pitcher that hit Henderson should have been ejected. I know the difference between aiming and a pitch that gets away from you. the league needs to start fining/suspending these intentional payback pitches whether merited or not..

FIRE SAL!!

Cole probably wants to but it's his first start back you can't put that on him. I feel like Boone will tell him not to and let someone else do it, but there's still a chance cole does it on his own anyways. Cortes is a big pu$$y he was the one who should have done it instantly.

Cole should throw his first pitch behind the leadoff hitter's back (not head) and then that's it, unless the O's keep doing it.

The Yankees have hit the third most batters this season. The Orioles have hit the 5th least amount of batters this season. Leave it to Yankees fans to complain about something happening to them that they do to others all the time

We got games to win. Fuck that nonsense!!! Most sensible shit to ever come out of Sal's mouth!

Why would you throw at someone in 1-0 game with a 1-2 count ? Second, why would the Orioles want to get another pitcher hurt starting a fight ? Soto should catch one in the head What was that in the base paths ? . If Buck was managing the Orioles Soto would be hit.

I was pissed Tonkin didn’t hit a guy last night. If today then let Cole pitch inside 1-2 times AND first reliever hits their first star up. Show some balls

I'm A Rays Fan And I'm Even Intrigued by this Series I Think if these two teams Are the best teams in Baseball the winner of this ALDS Will Win the WS

Let’s Go O’s ! Last time I remembered we are still the AL East Champions defending the division title and pushing for a World Series .. keep crying #BirdLand

I am so impressed with the Orioles showing what a classy organization they are and classy players they have. To see the AL MVP, Gunnar Henderson get intentionally hit and then just take his base was very impressive. Orioles don't throw at people. Orioles do not get into brawls or fights. Yankees have hit them 8 times this year, Orioles have hit the Yankees 3. But the Orioles are the ones that don't know how to pitch inside? Nobody wants to see Judge get hurt, but hit by pitches happen in baseball unfortunately. Yankees hit way more batters then the Orioles so by the logic in this video, the Tigers, White Sox, Blue Jays, etc... have to stand up for themselves and start hitting as many Yankees as possible to "even the score". Orioles are the new generation of players and don't subscribe to bean ball wars. Unfortunately the Yankee players, manager, announcers, commentators, etc... are subscribing to a different game then the Orioles are playing.

Both of these guys seem to have not noticed that Nestor did go up and in on Gunnar like they say they want.

did all y'all yankees fanboys not see Soto run into Westburg and take him out of the game? y'all knew what you were getting when you bought him. you want an eye for an eye and you already got it.

Y'all don't have the conviction to even claim that the HBPs were intentional by the Orioles but you think the Yanks should throw at them and "maybe break a bone." What a spineless and classless take. Yankees fans should stick to the Jomboy media guys. At least they have takes that make sense.

They intended to do this 3 times last night: Aaron, Gleyber and Stanton (he avoided it).. not a fan of the idea of Cole getting revenge and starting a brawl either, but if Orioles are going to play this way, we'll play back! 👊🏽

So in other words, play the game the way it was intended and should be played. Pitching inside, is a lost art. Pitchers are afraid to establish the plate as theirs, and worried about getting thrown out of a game. Or worried their player will get hit in retaliation. Screw all that. Pitch inside. Up and in to establish your dominance. Cole IS the guy to do it. First pitch of the game tonight.

They need CC.

Sal just said '"nastor nesty." What a spaz 😂

RIZZO"S SECOND TRIP OUT OF A GAME FROM ANOTHER PLAYER ON 1ST, LOOKS LIKE HE HAS A TAGET TOO. SOTO IS DOING HIS PART!

Just saw the clip - if Judge would have tried a bit harder to avoid the pitch, it wouldn't have happened - move next time. The ball was inside.- move.

I willing to bet warnings will be issued first

I want to see the Yankees go up 15-0 so they can throw in late. Last night the game was too close to put guys on base and too early for Nestor to get tossed. I'm all about it if it makes sense in a baseball standpoint

Im not saying your wrong, but as a orioles fan trying to defend my team on this whole thing with I know we didnt hit your players on purpose and we should just focus on what @Guessjess said and play the rest of the series out with both of our teams having one win, so good luck with tomorrow and if you win then congrats. Im just happy we wont get swept in this series against the most powerful team in MlB right now. 😅

IF YOU DONT SHOW SOMETHING IT WILL KEEP HAPPENING!

The reason we couldn’t retaliate last nigh is that Clay Holmes is our closer

Let’s remember it’s June anything can happen during the long season, I’m not predicting right now. Baseball is so unpredictable. They’re all professional ball players. Who ever gets hot at the right time can win the WS.

If Cole throws at an Oriole there is a chance he gets tossed. Is that worth it.

Are these guys brothers, I can’t tell them apart, they look alike

How about just winning the game? The Yankees did not bring Cole back just to throw at people. Then they may lose Cole for the game.

This is such a stupid fucking idea. I want Cole in the game.

Cc would’ve done it first pitch the next day and than it’s brawl time

I wasn’t originally onboard with retaliating because it didn’t seem intentional, but you make a really good point that they need to either go up and in to send a message if not straight up hit someone. And Cole definitely the 1 to do it. I’ll actually be upset now if they don’t do anything about it

This series don't matter. Taking a stand matters. Strawberry n Graham Loyd kicking ass against orioles gave yankees the balls that carried them for years

Just saying was it reslly worth hitting gunner in yesterdays game? It inevitably lost the yankees the game cause he came into score, not really smart baseball at all, plus the batters that were hit in game 1 both scored which costed the orioles the game in that one. This whole hitting people on purse thing is crap, just play the game and beat them on yje field, this is why yankees and their fans are so hated amonst the mlb fanbase.

This is going to be a great rivalry.

17-5. Also the Yankees have hit THE MOST batters in the AL.

Payback is a bitch.....we got the right guy on the bump tonight..... Soto's going to kick some ass tonight.....Go Yankees 🏆😎🖖👏💰🍩🦫💪👌🤘👋🇺🇸

hold these 2 Ls XDDDDDDD lmfao

1st pitch take down.

Pitchers got to Mookie Betts and Judge. Who's next? Soto? Ohtani? It's a sad state of affair in baseball but no team can let the opponents do that and not have some kind of response. That's baseball Suzanne! If the Yankees let Baltimore get away with that it's opened season.

I’m with Sal with this one

😂😂 Hit all the birds you like but hold this L while you do it. 😂😂 😢

Yea let’s get retaliation next month, good thinking Sal ya dope.

I gotta say I agree with both of you! The best revenge is winning the series, the entire Yankees team needs to focus on that. But I wouldn’t mind seeing Cole plunk somebody! I don’t want anyone to get taken out, but a little tit for tat would show the Orioles that they shouldn’t be messing with us.

Suarez didn’t communicate it was my bad to Judge or anything either. O’s wanna b tough guys. We should protect our Yankees. Pitch up & in 2, see how they like it.

😮😢poor whittle skankees. Have to buy what you cannot produce and cheat to get what you cannot earn. 17-5. 7 pitchers including the AL best and only one skankee pitcher could put up a scoreless inning. 17-5. And how many orioles did the skankees pitchers hit today? 17-5. Take out Aaron Jughead and the skanks whine endlessly. Go ahead and hit our guys we have a whole AAA team full of ripe replacements to do the job until they get well. 17-5. And that was a merciful score seeing as the Orioles left 14 runners on base. So Skankees quit the drama and do what professionals do…do your homework, find out how you screwed up your own game, own your own stuff, quit looking for a scapegoat, go back to work and do better tomorrow, and we will see you in Baltimore before the All Star break. Sheesh 🙄

O's Just through an inside pitch nastly against the Yankees best player and could have put the whole season on the line !! Its not small beans !! With a pitcher that doesn't have the pedigree to pitch inside !! If we went after Gunner with one of our not well known pitchers then they will understand !! Its war if they do it again!! Cole isn't the guy 2 not retaliate !! It should not be played down- how big a deal this is!!

I agree with Sal

It’s very important that Cole throws at least 80?pitches tonight after that he can hit Some one in the ass

This is why the Orioles are kicking the Yankees ass this year. The Yankees are concerned with hitting Orioles batters while the Orioles are more concerned with hitting Yankees pitchers!!

New York whiners

At a certain point you have to protect your guys Baltimore has to know they cant get away with that nonsense it was ridiculous

This Orioles team would get absolutely destroyed in a brawl lol

This didn’t age well. The Yankees are soft. You drilled the Orioles twice, and the Orioles broke you. Nice.

hey BT would you tell your child to throw and hit the batter?

ORIOLES OWM YALLLLLLLL LMFAOOOOOOOOO

Yankees are way overrated and are clearly out matched in every aspect when they play against any good team like the Dodgers, the Orioles or the Phillies. This team will never get past the first round of the playoffs assuming they even make the playoffs at all. This team has been nothing but a constant disappointment year after year since 2009 I will probably never win another World Series in our lifetimes.

The Yankees need to let it go. You don’t want Soto or judge getting thrown at. We are lucky Clemens is retired

This show is so terrible. They’re both ALWAYS wrong

I’m not so sure it wasn’t intentional. Think about it from Baltimores perspective. If Judge gets injured and misses a month or two the division race is over

Baltimore showing itself as much a punk franchise as Tampa was under Madden. But the Judge scare is causing people to forget another Holmes gag in the 9th inning. Does Holmes ever - ever - pitch a clean 1-2-3 inning? He gives up frozen ropes all the time - they just have been finding gloves most of the year.

Hahahaha anyway orioles won

What a horrible Yankee fan base to think they need to hit or take out an opposing player. Mistakes happen, move on.

You can't risk getting Cole suspended and also thrown out of tonight's game. If they want to retaliate, they should start a closer who does the plunking. Then bring in Cole.

If Judge doesn’t play today, take out 3 Orioles players. If Judge plays, only throw at Gunnar.

the first pitch to Henderson should be up and in. Put him on his heels.
