Yanks Clobber Cards For Their 7th Straight

Well, Greg Bird's little slump is over.  He homered, doubled, singled and walked in the Yanks 9-3 shellacking of the Cards. What's more, the whole team is finally grinding again.  Okay, maybe not Castro, but dammit, the rest of them are working their counts and walks and it's a big part of why they've won 7 straight.  Pineda was excellent once again and, like Severino the other day, only threw one bad pitch, but bounced right back after it.

Judge may have been jobbed out of a homer when a fan interfered with what looked like a homer.  Judge was awararded a triple, and Bird homered on the next pitch.  That's how exciting these young Yanks can be.  And bravo to Chase Headley, who is grinding like the kids and getting on base at an over .500 clip.  I was expecting a fun season, but tempered that when Sanchez went down, but damn, he could might have to board a speeding train when he gets back in a few weeks.
