Let The Kids Play Only to Lose Another Series
NYY vs. WSH
Game 1
RHP Carlos Rodón returned from the injured list to start the game versus the Washington Nationals and RHP Josiah Gray, a local guy from New Rochelle, NY.
In the top of the third inning, 3B Carter Kieboom hit a solo home run off Rodón, making it 1-0 Nationals.
In the next half inning – the bottom of the third – C Ben Rortvedt hit a solo home run of his own, tying the score 1-1. These would be the only runs that Rodón and Gray would give up, respectively.
In the top of the eighth inning, RHP Tommy Kahnle made two outs before giving up a solo home run to SS CJ Abrams. Kahnle has significantly struggled since the second half of this season, especially after returning from the injured list. More on Kahnle’s numbers later.
The Yankees would go on to lose 2-1 in this game.
Game 2
Struggling RHP Luis Severino of the Yankees would go up against LHP MacKenzie Gore of the Nationals.
DH Aaron Judge got the party started in the bottom of the first inning by hitting a solo home run off Gore, making it 1-0 Yankees.
In the bottom of the second inning, rookie and LF Everson Pereira got an RBI on a fielder’s choice with the Nationals opting and attempting to throw out CF Harrison Bader at home plate. Once Bader was ruled safe, the Yankees extended their lead against the Nationals 2-0.
In the same inning, Judge hit his second home run of the game – a grand slam – off Gore, scoring Pereira, C Kyle Higashioka, 3B Oswald Peraza, and Judge himself. It was now 6-0 Yankees.
In the bottom of the seventh inning, 1B DJ LeMahieu hit a solo home run off LHP Jose A. Ferrer. The Yankees extended their lead to 7-0. Unfortunately, RF Stone Garrett got hurt going after LeMahieu’s HR ball and had to be escorted off the field in a makeshift cast on his leg.

Later in the same inning, Judge hit his third home run of the game – another solo home run – off Ferrer, extending the lead to 8-0. SS Anthony Volpe soon followed the scoring with an RBI single to CF Alex Call. Bader scored and it was now 9-0 Yankees.
In the top of the ninth inning, 1B Dominic Smith hit a solo home run off LHP Wandy Peralta, putting the Nationals on the scoreboard for the first and only time in this game. The Yankees won 9-1, breaking their nine-game losing streak.
Game 3
Yankees’ RHP Michael King, who wants to become a starter at some point in his MLB career, was used as an extended opener versus the Nationals’ LHP Patrick Corbin.
In the bottom of the first inning, RF Judge picked up right where he left off in the prior game. He hit another home run, a solo shot off Corbin. It was 1-0 Yankees.
In the top of the third inning, DH Joey Meneses reached base on a fielding error by Volpe, causing NJ native and LF Jake Alu to score. It was tied 1-1 with RF Lane Thomas stranded at third base and Meneses at first base. The Yankees avoided further damage in that inning.
In the bottom of the third inning, 2B Gleyber Torres hit a two-run off Corbin, scoring LeMahieu and Torres himself. The Yankees took the lead 3-1.
In the top of the seventh inning, Kahnle – that man again – made a relief appearance. With two out in the inning, Kahnle gave up an RBI to Alu – who was now playing 2B – making it 3-2 Yankees.
With Alu at first, Call hit a two-run home run off Kahnle, causing the Nationals to take the lead against the Yankees at 4-3.
After that, Abrams proceeds to homer off Kahnle once again in this series, extending the Nationals lead to 5-3. While Abrams admired his HR and flipped his bat, Kahnle looked like a psychopath as he stared at the hitter.
After the All-Star Game break, Kahnle’s ERA is near or over six. Maybe Kahnle never fully recovered from his injury because his performance lately has been atrocious.
Moving on to the bottom of the eighth inning, DH Giancarlo Stanton hit a solo home run off RHP Jordan Weems. It was 5-4 Nationals.
In the same inning with two outs, Pereira got his first major league hit, which was a double. Unfortunately, he would be stranded at second when PH Jake Bauers struck out when he came in to hit for Higashioka.

I understand that the Yankees were trying to pair a left-handed hitter with a right-handed pitcher. However, this was completely the wrong move to make. Isiah Kiner-Falefa, who manager Aaron Boone has benched for all three games in this series, would have been the better move to make.
IFK, as I’ve mentioned in a previous blog post, has an average of over .300 with RISP. He’s the only one who hits over .300 with RISP on the Yankees roster. Plus, from what I understand, IKF does well off the bench as a pinch-hitter.
My question is did IKF get hurt in the last game he played against the Boston Red Sox when he slid into catcher Connor Wong at home plate? Other than letting the kids play or using IFK as a trade piece, why else is he being sat?
Before game one of this series, IKF received the Heart & Hustle award so it’s ironic that he hasn’t played at all recently.
Anyway, in the top of the ninth inning of this game, Meneses hit an RBI single off RHP Clay Holmes. The Nationals extended their lead to 6-4. Holmes is not a closer or holder of late-inning games in any shape or form!
In the bottom of the ninth inning, the Yankees tried to mount a comeback against closer and RHP Kyle Finnegan. Stanton hit an RBI single, scoring Peraza. It was now 6-5 Nationals.
With Torres representing the tying run at second with two outs, Bader – who struck out four times in this game (dawning the golden sombrero) – made contact with the baseball. Unfortunately, it was a flyball out to right field.
The Yankees lost the rubber game to the Nationals 6-5. Again, IFK could’ve been in this situation to pinch-hit for Bader instead of Higashoka since he wasn’t used then.
A side note about this last game is that two erroneous baserunning plays were made. The first one was made by Higashioka after he hit a double in the bottom of the second inning. When Peraza made contact, the ball was hit in between second and third base, yet Higashioka ran toward third and was tagged out. 
Peraza reached on a fielder’s choice, only to get picked off in an attempt to steal second. He got into a brief rundown before being tagged out and caught stealing with LeMahieu at-bat. This was the third out and second baserunning mistake.
These brain-fog moments loom large when the Yankees lose a game by one run.
Now, the Yankees are in St. Petersburg, FL about to face the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field. In recent Yankees history, they haven’t performed well against the Rays and haven’t for several seasons, especially in road games at Tropicana Field. 
I call it “The Garage” because it looks like a large, enclosed warehouse/garage inside.
Anyway, what also scares me about this next series is that the Rays just swept the Colorado Rockies.

Tonight's Monday Philm is actually a miniseries: Liberty! The American Revolution, first broadcast in 1997. Or, I Watched Six Hours Of This PBS Documentary All At Once So You Don't Have To!
It really wasn't that bad—I'm actually a historian specializing in 19th-20th century U.S. by training 🤓 so while the Revolution is a little earlier than my area of study, I've always had a soft spot for it. Just watching this made me a little nostalgic. I've seen parts of this series before (probably in middle school tbh) and of course I've watched PSH's few bits, but this was my first time watching the whole thing.
Overall pretty good! A little dated, as quarter-century old documentaries are expected to be, and the focus was a little narrower than I might've hoped for from a six-hour series, but it was well-made. SO many actors are in this. Like, I knew several to expect (like Stephen Lang, another favorite actor of mine, voicing Washington), but then Austin Pendleton and Jane Adams and Isiah Whitlock Jr. and Philip Bosco showed up!
I'm curious about how Phil got involved with this project. Released in late 1997, about a month after Boogie Nights, so filmed before his public "breakthrough" in that film. I wonder if this was another role he did, partly like Twister (and around the same time), to afford to move back to NYC lol? Not that it would just be about money—seeing Austin Pendleton pop up made me think he might've gotten Phil involved. And the project is neat, it's history, something Phil probably would've been interested in on his own. We may never know!
PSH is portraying Joseph Plumb Martin, an actual American soldier who kept a diary throughout his wartime service. While doing some research for this post I learned Martin was 16 (!!!) when he joined the militia, so Phil in that first still is supposed to be a teenager lmao. Makes much more sense when you realize Martin was in his mid-20s by the end of the war (the last still) and much closer to Phil's actual age. And like, it's a PBS documentary—they're not blowing the budget on costumes for characters with maybe 2 minutes of screen time—but they still do a pretty good job showing how he became a man over the course of the war.
Martin also kinda has the most character development over the course of the series? He's the primary (maybe only?) American soldier depicted and so carries the burden of portraying the entire demographic's wartime experiences. A little cheesy at times but Phil's sincerity is impressive—his willingness to throw himself into any role without self-consciousness—and I can't lie some of those line readings gave me chills ! Nearly all of the actors do a great job bringing the real diary entries and letters etc. to life—so brash, so funny, so honest and afraid and hopeful.
This series brings up many innate and complicated feelings about my country! Too numerous to dive into here, since this is already a remarkable long review compared to how long Phil is actually in it.
But Phil loved a good July 4th bash so tomorrow, if applicable, make some of his cookie dough s'mores and go see fireworks or maybe just watch him be miserable and freezing at Valley Forge in this series! 🇺🇸

This summer while dumping my grandmother's ashes into the river I was with my ex boyfriend who is currently living his life out of Louisiana right now.
A blue bird passed over me as well. Its a sign Overall, the arrival of the bluebird is a sign of hope since it could mean spiritual transformation. Even in the harshest climates, when they have a scarcity of food, these birds still manage to sing cheerfully and do so because they know better days are ahead.
I still hold the feather as a piece to my black book of me becoming a wiccan practicing keeping power because any arts that you do you will lose control if you don't have a mental grip to getting it dealt with as well. The bible doesn't speak of these things in between
Also what I found funny is that on my old facebook I tagged Washington saying I need Isiah Perkins out of jail and later just found out her is out of jail right now. Me speaking up started a womens rights movement slowly even while things are falling apart affecting every single human being right now and its is crazy.
This is my personal story on my practices and the way I now view things in life as well. On January 1st I am determined to have 3 grimiores ready may even start selling them as well due to topic of each practice in witch craft.
This memory is a personal memory and a bond that I will never be able to understand as life is going on but I am greatful that I had someone there. Even when we passed the ducks they would sit there and eye me down and not get mad . They felt that I am one with nature and that I have the power within myself on how I do things and carry them as well. Even as life goes on, Love means more than may things I am learning true love and that is loving yourself no matter what anyone says to you or thinks.

Rewatching Ghost Ship and that scene where Isiah Washington tried to fuck a ghost and he ended up falling down an elevator shaft. He was led astray by extreme hornyness and paid the ultimate price for it.
