"It’s getting too easy at this point" "We’re so f****ng good" - New York Yankees fans gloat as win over Tampa Bay Rays extends division lead

The Yankees pitchers were the true stars of this game

The New York Yankees remained the best team in the MLB, with their victory over AL East rival Tampa Bay Rays, extending their lead in the division. The game was an unusually low-scoring one for the New York Yankees, winning 2-0.

The Tampa Bay Rays may have succeeded in shutting down Aaron Judge and the offensive firepower we have grown accustomed to seeing from the AL East leaders, but they were unable to get past the stellar pitching rotation of the home team.

This game was an excellent return to form for Gerrit Cole, who pitched six innings for the New York Yankees, allowing only five hits, and no runs allowed. Winning in a shutout went a long way to energize the New York Yankees fanbase, sending them to a 45-16 record.

Talkin' Yanks posted this graphic to Twitter, along with an update to the New York Yankees record.

It did not take long for fans of the winning team to swarm Twitter with their support of the team. This also gave them the opportunity to gloat over the rest of the MLB.
