 What's your level of frustration not being able to get runs across in that situation? Yeah, disappointing. I mean, we had a couple chances today to, you know, for a while there, get back into the game. Snell for them was obviously really good, made it tough on us, but had some opportunities. And when you're not scoring runs in bunches or hitting ball at the ballpark, you got to take advantage of those. And that one got away there for us. And so it's frustrating that you deal with it and get ready for Toronto. You mentioned Snell just the day as a whole. Are you OK with the team's approach overall, or is it a match? Yeah, and we knew he was on some sort of a pitch count as they try and build him back up. So I thought we did a good job really in the first three innings of making it difficult. Because I mean, he's been one of the best pitchers in the league, and I think you saw that today. You saw the stuff wise, how tough he can be. I thought those first three innings, we really made it at least tough on him. And then he kind of cruised through that fourth and fifth inning with the low pitch total. So we didn't get him out of there as quickly as we would have liked. But, you know, we got to take advantage of these opportunities when we get them. What was the explanation in the bottom eight, the Stanton double it looked like he could have been at third on that one? Yeah, I mean, you know, unfortunately, that seems to always be a default, you know, just make it a double, which, you know, is what I was upset about, you know, how consequential it was. You know, I don't know that, but I feel like in those spots, you know, let's grind a little harder, especially John Carlos striding it out, you know, and clearly, you know, would have been at third base. So I just wish they'd grind down a little harder on those situations where, you know, we just always default to the safe automatic double, which didn't seem to be the case at all in that situation. Well, Aaron, how much do you attribute the struggles of the offense to the absence of Judge and Sanchez, or is that not a sufficient reason for this? Well, I mean, Judge is one of the best players in the league, you know, Sanchez is a, you know, great offensive player. So, I mean, two huge cogs, that's a big deal. You know, that said, we have more than capable people in that room of being a good offense, and I think for the most part, we have done a good job of scoring runs. We've been shut down here these last two days, even when we've had some opportunities last night to climb back in tonight, to climb back, or today to climb back into the game. You know, we have people more than capable of putting runs on the board, but, you know, you obviously take two star-level players out. That's certainly a big deal. Steve? Aaron, the other day, Brian Cashman said that part of his job is keeping an eye on the team ahead of the Yankees and the teams behind. Keep an eye on the team ahead of you, the Red Sox, but also keeping an eye on the teams behind you. Is that becoming a little more operative now? No. I mean, look, we're all aware of, if you follow the sport, watch the sport, you kind of know what the league's doing, but our job is focusing on us, and today we had an opportunity to win a series, and it's frustrating that we couldn't finish it off, but our focus is the Toronto Blue Jays, and Marcus Strowman now coming in. That's our focus. It's not, you know, I mean, everyone, I pay attention to the sport. I know what's going on, but I'm not thinking about, you know, what other teams ahead behind. That's, I mean, that's just, frankly, a waste of time. It's, we gotta get after it. We gotta get after the Blue Jays. That is my focus. That is our team's focus. Susan and Meredith. In that first inning, what was Tanaka's struggle, and how did he fix it to get further in the game? I think it took a minute to find his split, actually, and it seemed like I gotta go back and look at it, and I was just thinking about it a little bit. You know, some of their hits they got seemed to come with two strikes, and I just think it took them an inning or two to kind of find his split-fingered fastball, and it looked like they took advantage of some pitches up in that strike zone off the split, and, you know, made those two runs stand up. You know, Masa pitched well today, righted the ship, and gave us six good innings, and, you know, unfortunately, we couldn't support him enough offensively. I know Hick stayed in the game, but it looked as though he hit first base awkwardly with the state of the outfield. Are you just holding your breath in that situation? Yeah, I mean, you know what? You know, when I see him trailing down the line, I didn't see the player see what happened. You know, first thing, when he's walking slow, and Reggie's walking with him, you know, you fear, you know, hamstring, muscle pulls or whatever, but I guess it was rolling the ankle a little bit on the bag, which hopefully is, you know, hopefully better than obviously pulling something. As long as it's not too significant, we'll obviously get with him here after, who's good enough to stay in the game and see the severity of it and see if there's any swelling in there. But yeah, I mean, you know, obviously, and a guy like Aaron, who's so important to what we do. Yeah, you certainly hold your breath in that spot. Aside from Stevie looking at it, any test or anything? On the ankle, any test or anything, or just Stevie evaluating? No, just Stevie evaluating him on the fly, able to stay in the game, and then, you know, they checked him in between innings, and when Stevie came up, gave the thumbs up that he was okay, so we'll see how he does here in the next couple hours. Mark and Bob. Aaron, Greg Byrd seemed to be the focal point, least among the fans. How would you describe his struggle and what do you attribute it to? Yeah, you know, I feel like he's a little bit, you know, where he was when he first came back, kind of struggling to impact the ball when he's getting pitches and just lacking a little bit of that explosion. We saw there for a few weeks when he really started swinging the bat well before the all-star break, that maybe three-week period where he's hitting the ball out of the ballpark, I feel like right now, there's just not that explosion through the zone, and, you know, and sending in some flyouts and some strikeouts. Tough matchup today with Snell and the lefties that they brought in against him, but, you know, we're just not seeing these, I would say the explosion right now when he impacts the ball, when he gets a pitch to impact, you know, it's that fly ball instead of really sticking it. Bob, the right. Aaron, just following up on Mark's question, were you okay with Bird's first pitch swinging, bases loaded? Oh, yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's one thing he's great at, is controlling the zone, and that's a situation there, left on left that you don't want to, you're in hit mode, and, you know, so zero issue with that, yeah. Dan. You've talked before again about Stan, you know, monitoring his running, obviously he couldn't really do that today with beating out the double play and on the double, then he put any setbacks from that, or any worry about that? No, it seems to be good, and watching him actually when he was running out that triple slash double, whatever, you know, he did a good job in not playing umpire and just running hard, and I'm kind of screaming like, you know, because I'm always cognizant of him, and just like easy, and he was, I thought his stride, which I think he's done a really good job, I thought he was striding out really well under control, but with some pace behind it, he's doing a really good job of managing it, and he's doing well obviously. Brendan, and back. With Bird, you mentioned not seeing the explosion there. That sounds physical. Yesterday, Cashman said that birds don't might be getting used to playing every day on these ankles. Are you concerned there's something physical, or do you think this is maybe fatigue? Right. I do feel like he is, I don't feel like he's injured. I feel like fatigue is certainly a factor, or maybe lack of stamina, and again, I think it's a result, and I don't wanna get too much playing doctor, whatever, but just coming off of surgery is the last couple years. Coming off the surgery this year, I think he's over it and past it, but I also think there's a level of building up that stamina and explosion, and the fact that you're still recovering from a surgery, so I don't think there's any question that if he can stay healthy, that a month from now, six months from now, it's better, it's more explosive. So that's something that we kinda monitor, talk about, and hopefully he can kinda get through this while building up that stamina that makes him special when he's really on time and impacting the ball.
