New York Yankees @ Houston Astros | Game Highlights | 3/31/24

[@josephtalmadge3108]

Soto again. He has completely changed our offense. All of this production in 4 games with just 1 homerun. What a start to the season 4-0

[@Scorpio1025]

Judge is still trying to find his stroke, and we still put up runs in crucial situations

[@moelarry8088]

​@@Scorpio1025 last year it felt like if judge had a rough game there would be no chance at winning. he just had a rough series and the yanks still swept. very good to see

[@petercho4355]

100%! offensive concept is different this year. hitting for hits, not homers....so apropos verdugo gets the final out. he's been tested out there. can't wait to see what they do when judge actually starts hitting....lets go yanks!

Facts

[@OldSoulNewLife]

Without berti and verdugo defense , or gleyber getting the blooper hit and steal. We don’t win this game.. at least not the way we did. Would have been extra innings

[@OldSoulNewLife]

I don’t see many people giving gleyber credit for the hit and steal . Or berti and verdugo defense. They were so clutch in that 9th.

[@FreeTheWave]

Facts

[@matheusfernandes2102]

If Gleyber doesnt go for 3rd on that 3-2 pitch he doesn't score, great base running

[@lynnrodriguez1987]

I rarely see Gleyber Torres get credit for anything. I've always loved the guy, and hope he's a Yankee for life. VERY underrated player. And remember, we basically got him for nothing, receiving him and other players for Aroldis Chapman for a couple month rental, then we re-signed Chapman in the off season. The Yankees have to keep Torres. Volpe is solid at SS, we'll see about Cabrera at 3B, and I really feel like Peraza has "bust" written all over him. We should've traded him, before he was exposed.

[@Nishinga.]

They were such unsung heroes for sure Berti’s dive was so fucking insane I can’t stop watching it

[@Imaketrancesongs]

Soto is HIM. The Astro killer we've been waiting for. They better keep him in the bronx for the rest of his career, end of story.

[@lynnrodriguez1987]

We could have a ton of outfield depth if we sign Soto long term. Judge, Soto, Dominguez, Spencer Jones, and Grisham. Even if we aren't able to sign Soto, an outfield of Judge, Dominguez, and Jones, would be incredible. For the first time in eons, it seems like the Yankees have a rosy future ahead.

[@dino988]

A fantastic start to the season and I'm a diehard Yanks fan, but c'mon it's March. No need to be dramatic.

[@PACNYY]

​@@SakAttack87Nothing dramatic about what I said. He's a 25 year old consistent phenom and hopefully he'll resign with the Yankees to finish his career off in Pinstripes.

[@MyFavoriteSportsballTeam]

The fire this Yankees team is showing so far this year feels like a culmination of all their shortcomings in the Judge-Stanton era. It just feels like something is brewing…the mix of Yankees vets, FA pickups and young players coming up from our farm system. Also, Soto is always locked in, but he looked like he knew exactly what was gonna happen during the whole AB against Hader. It’s just wild to see that level of confidence in the 9th w/ 2 outs and a RISP.

[@alecj3454]

Soto & defense FTW -- What team is this again? What a sweet sweep. Every new guy has proven their worth in this first series. The closer situation is going to need some attention tho. We cant rely on diving plays to save games in the 9th all year. Holmes seems like he's about to implode every time hes in. Regardless -- I love the vibe of the team. Soto is a perfect fit -- Sign him up for a decade, back up the Brinks truck, give him whatever he wants. Cant wait to see what happens next!

[@jackhouser8051]

what a 9th inning holy shit

[@zhongwa]

Just finished watching. I have to watch it again. Wow, what a game and a great finish!

[@RootinNRuttin]

Nobody has more swagger on this team than Soto. The confidence and consistency is unreal. THIS is who needs to be the yanks captain in all honesty. He’s already taken over this team as his. Hal needs to pull his head out of his ass and give this man whatever he wants

[@severalfoultips]

hard to disagree, that AB in the ninth was legendary

[@Adeyemiii]

I agree. Soto had a great series, but we’re not making somebody captain after 4 games.

[@jeremiahrobinson3745]

Let’s calm down. Juan is a stud but Judge truly embodies the true traits of a Yankee captain. The fact he’s willing to share/give the spotlight to Soto shows that.

[@RootinNRuttin]

@@jeremiahrobinson3745 all I’m saying is you can see it in the players that they look up to Soto. He stands out. The old yanks, the ones who stood out were the ones who weren’t very good because EVERYONE was an all star. Now…it’s just Soto and Judge (if judge doesn’t hurt himself walking to the plate) Judge is great. I met him when he was in the minors and he’s cool as shit. Signed my hat and took a picture and had a conversation with me instead of just hopping on the bus. I’m all about Judge. BUT when it comes to being the leader of this team, Soto has taken over. I know it’s early but watching these last 4 days, they all look for Soto for everything! You can see it. If Hal let’s this man walk to another team, the yanks are done for a long time. They’ve had zero fire, zero will to win the last few years and then here comes the fire they were looking for. With Jeter, on the mediocre teams toward the end of his career, he kept the fire in their asses to win, even when we sucked but somehow pulled it off. I see it in Soto. Love Judge to death, but if Soto were to stay in the Bronx…. Eeeesh that’d be his team lol

[@RootinNRuttin]

@@Adeyemiii oh i know that. I’m just speaking hypothetically. Notice all four days the players looked to Soto. Almost as a “looking for approval.” If Soto stays in the Bronx….that’ll be Soto’s team. He’s built for the Bronx by his confidence and swagger and playing in a spotlight.

The games have been extremely well played, they have been exciting and most of all Soto, Verdugo and Cabrera show swag...they are different than the old stoic Yankees.

[@teddee2894]

So good to see yankees go the other way and not try and pull everything. Hence Soto all series.

[@davebonilla4561]

It is what the Yankees used to do before they signed Jason Giambi in 2002. Then the Yankees became hr derby.

[@sakser]

In Soto I'm seeing a power hitter who knows when to simply slap the ball for a base hit. Either to start a rally or drive in a run it's really game changing. I would love it if Judge and Stanton could cut down on their swings with two strikes to do the same. Just going with the pitch and putting it in play makes a difference. That's what the Yankees of the late 90's did!

That wasn't just any old team they swept; that was one of the better teams of the entire '23 season. It was never a cakewalk, but this team fought and just kept cranking out base hits after base hits, and solid defense and it was enough every time. I am really hyped for this '24 Yanks season.

Outro theme back!

[@Karthos1000]

I went into this series, I must confess, pretty much PRAYING for a split, and expecting that we'd probably just manage one win. So I'm absolutely thrilled that we're leaving a four game series with Houston without a loss, and that they are still searching for their first win. (Couldn't happen to a better team than the Asterisks.) And tomorrow starts a brand new test, as we face off against the champions of the National League from last year. Also worth noting that our defense really bailed out Holmes. But it's nice to know that we have that capability.
