But Joey Gallo wouldn’t stay in Texas for the remainder of the 2021 season!

Why?

Because Joey Gallo would get traded to New York!

In return for Joey Gallo Texas is going receive right-hander Glenn Otto, second baseman Ezequiel Duran, shortstop Josh Smith and second baseman/outfielder Trevor Hauver from New York, sources told Passan. Texas will send an additional player, pitcher Joely Rodríguez, to New York to complete the blockbuster.

Tonight Joey Gallo is returning!

Why?

Because he left Saturday’s game verses Cleveland with neck tightness!

Opposing his former team!

Why?

Because New York who is a member of the American League East is beginning a three game series with Texas who unlike them is a member of the American League West and Joey Gallo is in the starting lineup for New York!

New York who is a member of the American League East comes into the game with a record of 83-67 and is 2 1/2 games behind Boston and 1 1/2 games behind Toronto in the Wild Card standings

Why?

When Gerrit Cole starts for New York, for the team that wears the pinstripes we expect him to dominate no matter who the opponent is.

On Sunday we did not see Gerrit Cole dominate!

Where?

Bronx New York!

Verses who?

Cleveland!

Why?

He was unlucky in the first inning, victimized by a couple of soft hits, but Cleveland hit him hard the rest of the way.

How?

Gerrit Cole was knocked around for seven runs and 10 hits in an 11-1 to the Indians that also dented his chances at the American League Cy Young Award.

Harold Ramirez cued a two-run single in the first inning, then rapped a two-run single to center field in the third that eluded Aaron Judge and Brett Gardner.

Roberto Pérez laced a run-scoring single in Cleveland’s three-run third inning. José Ramírez tagged Cole for a solo homer in the fifth -- part of a four-hit performance -- and Pérez launched a drive into the left-field bullpen in the sixth.

The result?

A loss, boos from the fans at Yankee Stadium as he left the mound, the game!

Gerrit Cole had this to say about getting booed!

“It’s a bad game, man. That’s New York,” he said

Gerrit Cole had this to say his performance!

“It sucks to lose like this,” Cole said. “It still sucks to not really have a clear and concise answer for what the problem is so you can go ahead and fix it. It’s going to be tough to shower off. It’s not going to be easy. It certainly doesn’t make it any easier to have confidence, but at the same time, we don’t really have a choice.”

With the loss, New York is 2 1/2 games behind Boston and 1 1/2 games behind Toronto in the Wild Card standings.

Texas who is a member of the American League West comes into the game with a record of 55-94.

Why?

Because like New York they lost their previous game but unlike New York they lost to the Chicago White Sox by a score of 7-2!

Why?

Veteran pitchers Jordan Lyles and Mike Foltynewicz -- who appeared in his first game since coming off the COVID list -- gave up a combined seven runs after the starter Lyles was chased from the game in the fourth inning.

Offensively for Texas in their loss to the Chicago White Sox Isiah Kiner-Falefa had two singles and two steals. His second single drove in DJ Peters for the Rangers’ first run of the day in the bottom of the fifth inning. The shortstop has hits in nine of his last 10 games, five of which were multi-hit efforts. After he walked in the eighth inning, he scored the Rangers’ other run off an Adolis García sacrifice fly.
