Social Media Reacts To Lineup
Here’s what people were saying about the team’s lineup:
Gary Phillips: “Game 1 lineup. Fyi, Aaron Boone said yesterday that Cody Bellinger and Trent Grisham probably won’t play both games today.”
@YankeesFiles: “Doubleheader + platoons Truly a formula for wildness”
Chris McMonigle: “I can’t ever remember the Yanks being this much of a “platoon” team ever in my life. In the biggest game of the year, 3 of the first 4 hitters in the lineup hardly ever play”
@YaBoyyyJohn: “Spencer Jones finally in CF, what you got kid?”
@LombardIsKing_: “NO GRISHAM IN CF Ramos in RF Need judge back man”
@YankeeJames112: “Can someone tell me what Ramos has done to deserve to play, let alone bat cleanup? Batting ahead of Bellinger no less…”
@NYYDALFAN: “That’s funny. Now show the real lineup”
@b_reck13: “Put a lefty on the mound and Boone just starts drawing names out of a hat for the lineup.”
