2:57: J.B. Cox is getting hit hard. Somebody named Sadler drove a curveball out to left to put runners at first and second. Singleton describes the pitch as a hanging breaking ball. I have to observe: the ball didn't appear to hang. It was a curveball for a strike. Had Sadler taken it, it would have been caught slightly below the knees for a strike, and Singleton would have called it a good "nose-to-toes breaking ball." So I have to ask: is every curveball that is hit hard a "hanging curveball"? Seems a little knee-jerky.

Cox gets out of the inning. 2-1 Yanks.
