Yankee Stadium | New York, NY
Thomas Pannone (2-1, 4.13, 1.13) vs. Lance Lynn (9-10, 5.01, 1.55)
PREAMBLE:
After just managing to hold on to win Game 2 despite a leaky bullpen, the Blue Jays look to grab a series win in today's matinee. It'll be an accomplishment if the Jays can avoid getting beaten to a pulp into the ground as the Yankees look to get back on track to securing home field advantage for the wild card game.
Thomas Pannone takes the ball on the mound today against Lance Lynn.
NOTES:
Congrats to the Fishercats:

Want to see a beautiful HR spray chart? Here's one for Juan Soto:

Fun pitching matchup today, even if the latter is likely to only go 3 innings or so: Jacob deGrom vs. Chris Sale. deGrom hit exactly one HR while in college and guess who he hit it off?
Too bad they're in an AL park, so deGrom won't be wielding a bat..@JdeGrom19 hit one homer in college. It was off Chris Sale.— MLB (@MLB) September 16, 2018
Please let him hit today, @Mets. pic.twitter.com/uEjUOmr6y7
