That image of Judge rounding first after the homerun, nothing but sheer childlike joy. What fun to watch.

After the historic rookie season he put together, only one curiosity remained: could he step up to the ultimate proving grounds of Yankee Stadium in October? He answered that in his first playoff game, with a resounding yes.

Yanks are playing with house money this season, so if this enthusiastic young group can scrap out a couple wins and make it competitive versus the reigning AL champs, that would be cool.

I hope to see Severino rebound in the DS; if he settles his nerves and trusts his talent he will be ok. I can only imagine what it's like to be on a stage like the playoffs, let alone at Yankee stadium— which dovetails with a big round of applause for the likes of Chad Green and D-Rob, who performed under enormous pressure.

Bad inning. I wouldn't make too much of it really, certainly not yet.

I have no doubt Sevy will rebound in the ALDS. Has Girardi announced the rotation? You have to believe Sonny Gray gets the ball for game one. After? I would think Tanaka and CC gets starts. I believe CC deserves a start in the ALDS after the season he had. Would love to see CC return next year on a Pettitte like one year contract, but there may not be a spot for him, especially if the Yankees are going to give Chance Adams a chance (no pun intended) to win a rotation spot out of spring training. You would think Tanaka doesn't opt out after the season he's had, so that would be Sevy, Tanaka, Gray & Montgomery for 4 spots, unless Monty, Cessa & Adams compete against each other.

Judge has the ROTY locked up, in my opinon. Will get some votes for MVP, but I think Altuve will get that award. There are a ton of Facebook haters who mock the strikeouts. Met fans believe Conforto is the better player to boot. Not sure about that one.

Count me out on CC. This was his last hurrah. It was the best he's capable of pitching and I didn't see anything this year that suggested he would be able to replicate it one more time. In my opinion it would be a mistake to sign him.

I had a great time watching that game. What a playoff debut for Judge. It doesn't get much better than that. The Indians will be tough but I'm looking forward to seeing how Judge and the rest of the Yankees do. I think they have a chance to pull off the upset.

That was a fantastic game. I was standing up the whole time. The bullpen was amazing.

When your leadoff hitter is hitting them out, you know it is a dangerous lineup.
I love CC, but I think his knee isn't going to give him any more than this season.

I cannot wait for the Cleveland series. I think it is going to be a dogfight.
I hope Judge crushes a few more.

The Yankees scare me. They looked really good/confident last night and that will carry over when they play the Indians.

I also believe it is going to be a battle.

Go Indians!

You certainly have to give the edge on paper to Cleveland with their pitching but it's a short baseball series so who knows.

The Encarnacion injury did not look good at all!

Huge loss for Cleveland, which is going to hurt!

That looked like it really hurt, especially the slow motion replays. Hope it is nothing serious.

GO Yankees, you need 3 in a row now.

I think any Yankees or Sox fans gotta root for a Yanks-Sox ALCS.

another big hit for judge.

was 0-11 before that for the series but hardly anyone ever on base for those at bats..

can we all agree that just a few hits make up for tons of bad at bats....its clear he wins a star amount of games for you

Trevor Baur already out of the game gives up 4 runs...not not 6 innings later when up 7......but in second inning when it was 0-0..theres a difference..

(yes no runs earned but whip of over 5.00)

Default Bad is Good and Good is Bad???

I'm just plain confused by your arguments Jake,

Post season Kershaw tosses four gopher balls in his start and you support him
and your big stick Judge strikes out 9 times in his first 15 hitless at bats, including 4 walks,
and you support him when he finally makes contact.

Pray tell, what argument would you use if
Kershaw struck out 9 of the first 15 batters he faced and
Judge hit 4 home runs in the first three games of the Cleveland series?

I can't imagine.

I know Judge has been getting caught looking but in my opinion the umpire crew for the Yankees / Indians series is one of the worst I've ever seen. They'll call anything a strike. The extra innings game was like watching a little league game where the ump just wants to go home.
