 Yeah, he's working the corners and a little bit off the plate, you know, and Just making pitches when he had to man. He's got really good stuff You know you can get that fastball up to 97 98 and like you said a wipeout slider that you know You can throw it any count, you know She likes to double up on us sometimes and you just kind of kept us off balance all day And we're really we're really able to kind of get some momentum to have that beginning against them You mentioned the other day that this series felt like it had a playoff atmosphere So you go head-to-head four games you take two they take two what's your takeaway from the series? Hard-fought series, you know back and forth like you said we ended to to you know, we'd like to win all four You know obviously that's a good ball club over there that we'll probably see down the road and No, those are fun those are those are series you like to play, you know and it's tough and and they're scoring runs We're scoring runs back and forth. So it's uh Those are the fun ones to compete in Aaron Boone was just saying in the press conference room that you guys have Various ways of showing support a couple times. You're on base today You gave the familiar for finger salute that everybody has done this year, but you also seem to do something that may be Mimicked hitting a hitting a dugout roof. Is that a supportive gesture for Gardner? Yeah, he's one of the leaders of this team, you know and We do we do a lot of crazy things in that dugout when we get on base, you know So we're just showing support for him. He's one of his leader of this team So we're just supporting him with that just seeing a lot more of that It might be I don't know. I know the fans out in right field are loving it with the roll call I don't know if you saw Guardi's roll call. He gave him a little a little Little dugout hit with the with the muscle up. So I was a good one now We're gonna that might be the new thumbs down. We'll see. We'll see Who doesn't say a lot to umpire is pretty good Reputation in terms of dealing with them Concerned at all the way things have gone the last few days and some of the interactions that you guys have got in terms of long-term consequences of ramifications of heated incidents with them with the umpires What do you ask in there? Personally, you don't say very much. Obviously the team has had some some issues with them. Yeah, you're concerned about that carrying over to other series Now really we got a job to do just like they do, you know, so that probably be a better question for them, you know We had a job to do we're gonna keep going out there and playing doesn't matter who's umpiring or not That's not our job. You know our jobs to go out there and you know one ball games here for the New York Yankees, so I Don't think I don't think anything will carry over with that Second base. I'm say to you after you did it there tonight that he look like he came up and look like he was laughing a little bit I just asked him where they were headed next Just ask him where you guys headed next. He told me Texas. It's gonna be a hot one. So I just said Bring appropriate clothes Mention your Speaking of heading next you go to Oakland, that's the closest major league city to your hometown What will that scene be like for you? I'll be a little crazy a lot of family a lot of friends out there, you know But it'll be but it's gonna be a good series to you know, Oakland's who's in the hunt right now for you know a little postseason run and It's gonna be a good one. So I can't wait to get out there and get some Cali air You still remember your first batting practice open. I don't ever forget that. Oh, yeah, I was so nervous This past week you guys pulled ahead of Houston by a few games for the home field They're very good at home. You're very good at home. You saw what happened in 17 where everybody won the home game How big is that to you to beat them out? Yeah, that's the biggest thing, you know, even though we're going on the stretch and we got a lead in our division We're not gonna stop and we're not gonna stop until you know last game, you know 162 You know, we want to keep winning and that's that's big You know, especially now, you know, you know, how rowdy this place gets in the postseason and how crazy these fans are and We love we know we feed off that energy. So we got to keep winning and you know, make sure we you know Keep that you know home field advantage to the postseason That's what I'm worried about what we're doing Yeah Yeah, just you know, we know what type of teams we're facing you know going up against Oakland Oakland and Dodgers and Seattle, you know three good ball clubs right there and especially that Dodger series gonna be like a Maybe another postseason, you know match up right there. So it's it's gonna be rowdy and we're motivated for those We can't wait we want to play the best teams and Those are some of the best teams out there. So looking forward to it
