Nestor Cortés comes into today's game after throwing two 7 inning shut out games with no walks allowed!! This is very rare. The last person to do this was Ron Guidry. That's how rare it is. Great job, Nestor!!! Do it again, my friend!! 😍 Let's go Yankees!!!!!

Nestor has a 19 inning scoreless streak going. That's his best record to date. If he can finish the 6th today, he'll have 20 scoreless innings!! He just needs one more out. The bases are loaded. No pressure. 🤣 Let's go, Nestor!! I believe in you!! One more strike.... the pitch.... he did it!!! Spectacular pitching, Nestor!! Striking out the top of the order with all those men on base!!! Great job!! Thank you, Nestor!! That was a nail biter, indeed. You just proved how great you are!! Let's go Yankees!!!!!

Boone let Nestor pitch the 7th, but unfortunately, pitch number 88 was a home run. Nestor pitched a great game. This is the first home run that he allowed since August 8th. Hold your head high, Nestor!! You did a great job!! Let's go Yankees!!!!!

Babe Ruth is the single most famous baseball player in the entire world. Babe Ruth is also one of the greatest baseball players in the history of the game. The Bambino's slugging ability was so great, his last name became an adjective — "Ruthian" — used to describe performances of heroic proportion. We could effortlessly write an entire book (more books about Babe Ruth have been written than any other player) here, but will stick to a mere handful of career highlights.

Babe Ruth the "champion": Ruth was a World Series champion seven times (1915, 1916, 1918, 1923, 1927, 1928, 1932), the American League home run champion twelve times (1918, 1919, 1920, 1921, 1923, 1924, 1926, 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930, 1931), the RBI Champion six times (1919, 1920, 1921, 1923, 1926, 1928), the On-Base Percentage Champion ten times (1919, 1920, 1921, 1923, 1924, 1926, 1927, 1930, 1931, 1932) and the Slugging Average Champion thirteen times (1918, 1919, 1920, 1921, 1922, 1923, 1924, 1926, 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930, 1931)!

Babe Ruth the "home run king": Ruth was the first player in Major League history to hit 200, 300, 400, 500, 600 and 700 home runs. In 1919, Ruth hit 29 home runs becoming the all-time single-season home-run leader. A year later Ruth hit 54 home runs, breaking his own record as the all-time single-season home run leader and became the first player to hit over 50 home runs in a season. The very next year, he hit 59 home runs, breaking his own record yet again. Finally, in 1927, The Sultan of Swat hit 60 home runs, breaking the mark and establishing a plateau that was legendary for decades. Currently, Ruth still holds records for most home runs in any decade (467 in the 1920s), fastest player to hit 600 home runs (2,044 games) and fastest player to hit 700 home runs (2,418 games).

Babe Ruth the "best left-handed pitcher in baseball": Ruth was 18-8 with a 2.44 ERA his first full season on the mound (1915), twenty-wins club (23-12) the very next year (and the ERA Champion, 1.75), and twenty-wins club (24-13) the year after that. Ruth still holds pitching records for most shutouts in a season by a lefty with 9 (tied by Ron Guidry in 1978) and most innings pitched (14) in a World Series game, on October 9, 1916, a complete game 2-1 victory.

Babe Ruth the "postseason prince": Ruth set World Series records with 3 homers in a game (and did it twice) and 12 total bases in a game. His 15 postseason home runs, all hit during World Series games, were a record until Mickey Mantle tied him in 1963 then eventually passed him in 1964. And let us never forget the 1932 World Series, legendary and debatable still to this day, courtesy of "The Called Shot".

Babe Ruth the "nickname collector": Babe (which some actually believe is his real name due to its use) probably had more well-published nicknames than any other player and here are but a few we have seen in print: The Bambino, The Sultan of Swat, The Colossus of Clout, The Wazir of Wham, The Maharajah of Mash, The Rajah of Rap, The Caliph of Clout, the Behemoth of Bust, The Mammoth of Maul, The Mauling Mastodon, The Mauling Monarch, The Wali of Wollop, and to his teammates, Jidge.

Babe Ruth the "hall of fame legend": Ruth was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame on February 2, 1936, by the Baseball Writers Association of America, as part of the inaugural class of inductees. At the time of his induction, Ruth held literally hundreds, and we mean hundreds, of baseball records. The single most prolific hitter in baseball history, a key component in "Murderer's Row" and a charismatic personality — both on and off the field — that made him a larger-than-life figure and one of the greatest sports heroes, not just in baseball, but in American culture.

Babe Ruth is part of an elite set of pitchers in Major League history whose career on the mound spanned at least ten seasons and NEVER once included a losing record! The other aces: Spud Chandler (11 seasons), Dizzy Dean (12 seasons), Dave Foutz (11 seasons), Joe McGinnity (10 seasons), Andy Pettitte (18 seasons), Deacon Phillippe (13 seasons), Jay Powell (11 seasons) and Urban Shocker (13 seasons).

Book review-

I have to say that this collection of stories is worth checking out if you want to be exposed to multiple writers’ works all at once and especially if you enjoy sci-fi! This is a wide variety of reads, some parts from the human’s perspective and some, not. Some stories are realistic, some are realistic (almost scarily so), and some humourous in its ridiculousness while others make you think.

I will say- I’m not a sci-fi reader. And some of these reads were hard to stomach in the start but for me- the more I read, the more I enjoyed. And saying this as a very rarely into sci-fi story reader, this is a beginnner friendly read. The illustrations are great and match the stories so well, and the audiobook narrator pulls out all the stops to make hearing this antropology enjoyable. I would definitely recommend checking this out!

I hope you enjoy this read! Thank you to Galaxy Press and bookinfluencers.com for my copy of the audiobook!

Gerrit Cole ties Ron Guidrys strike file for Yankees in 8-3 win over Blue Jays on historic evening The Mercury Information

TORONTO – On the evening that Aaron Choose equalized MLS and Yankee data, Gerrit Cole had a second of his personal. Whereas Choose largely overshadowed Roger Maris’ one-season house run of 61 strokes, Cole tied Ron Guidry’s one-season Yankee file of 248 within the fifth inning of Wednesday evening’s sport. “I believe it is extra particular due to what Aaron did tonight to be trustworthy,” Cole mentioned, referring to Choose’s massive evening. “He is actually, clearly a extremely particular quantity. Guidry was so good to us, so magical and he held his file for therefore lengthy. I do not suppose you’d ever dream of him, however solely to be talked about in the identical classes. Yankees legends, it is arduous for me to wrap up. my head at this level.” Nonetheless, the Yankees wanted a two-round shot on the prime of the seventh-place end to overhaul the Blue Jays after Cole superior three runs into the underside of sixth. The pitchers went on to win 8-3 at Rogers Middle. With just one extra begin earlier than qualifying, Cole raised extra questions on his capacity to deal with adversity on the hill. He was engaged on an ideal sport at that time and gave up a solo shot to guide the sixth inning to catcher Danny Janssen. He ditched one single for Whit Merryfield and walked ninth-placed Jackie Bradley Jr. Then Cole apparently refused to place them each within the scoring place. Bo Bichette selected with one to usher in Merrifield and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. He flew to the left to get Bradley to tie the match. Homer Jansen was the thirty second man, whom Cole allowed this season. Though not counting a one-time Homer with a three-stroke lead out of 19 deserted house runs that broke a tie-breaker or tied the sport or value the Yankees a lead, this clearly shook Cole and led to his dissolution. Cole allowed three runs with three strokes. He walked one and hit 4 on 6.1 innings pitched. Cole hooked up Jedi’s 1978 franchise tag to a knuckle curve ball that Rimmel Tapia was swinging on. The ace Yankees now have a one-season strike file for 2 franchises with 326 punches in 2019 for the Astros. He is only one of 5 main league bowlers to have finished so, becoming a member of Pedro Martinez (313 with the Purple Sox in 1999 and 305 with the Expos in 1997), Randy Johnson (372 with the Diamondbacks in 2001 and 308 and with the Mariners in 1993), Nolan Ryan (301 with the Rangers in 1989 and 383 with the Angels in 1973) and Rob Waddell (232 with the St. Louis Browns in 1908 and 349 with the Philadelphia Athletics in 1904). Because the world waited for Choose to tie Maris, he took his fifth straight profession to guide the sport. Choose, who walked the final 4 strokes of the win on Tuesday evening, took a 2-0 lead over Mitch White earlier than the Blue Jays beat the best 2-2. Then, White nibbled low and the choose walked six pitches. The choose ended up scoring the primary three runs within the first. It got here a couple of Josh Donaldson music. Oswald Peraza featured fellow rookie Oswaldo Cabrera, who walked behind Choose and Donaldson scored a aim within the sacrifice fly by Marwin Gonzalez. () Originally published at San Jose News HQ
