One can judge the date of manufacture to a certain degree by style or model. This holds true for instruments made in the early 1920s as well as those made in the latter half of the 1930s.ĭating an old Oscar Schmidt Stella is often at best guesswork and/or deduction. One thing I have noticed: they nearly always have 30 as first numerals. Unfortunately, the numbers do not seem to follow any chronological order. These guitars often have numbers inside, usually on the top brace just south of the sound hole. During the season, the Yankees were 39-12 when Judge homered and seemed on the brink of making that 1-0 in these playoffs.As you might already know, I've seen quite a few Oscar Schmidt guitars. But the blows to their bullpen showed up. The Yankees were lined up to win and hand the ball to Cole to get them again to Houston. After nearly being knocked out in the second, Severino went nine-up, nine-down through the third-to-fifth innings. Judge connected in a way so familiar to his historic regular season - doubt removed about whether it was a homer, just a tad of awe wondering where it would go. But centered in the middle of the plate - the kind of mistake Judge had spent six months essentially not missing. If anything, the lefty-swinging Anthony Rizzo was being treated more carefully by the all-righty Cleveland rotation. In this Division Series, the Guardians had interestingly attacked Judge. Triston McKenzie, who had dominated the Yankees over seven one-hit shutout innings on July 3, fell behind Judge 2-1. And they have the heavyweight champ with the most powerful punch.Ĭabrera, having let his swing elongate in his own two-game 0-for-8, five-strikeout playoff malaise, had been dropped to ninth in the order. The Yankees’ counter to jabs has always been the haymaker. The Guardians were playing their game again - stick and move - and an upset of the Yankees was expanding beyond just a theory. Letting Game 2 slip away Friday in The Bronx had bled right into Game 3. It was early, but with the feeling of it growing late already. Using six hits in the first 10 batters to derive two runs. Meanwhile, the Guardians were doing relentless jabbing at Luis Severino. The swelling tension around Judge had morphed from the angst of him hitting a 62nd homer to now just getting a hit - and the team was ensnared in the stress. His failure was becoming that of the team. That made it eight in nine hitless at-bats stretched over two-plus games. No surprise because contained in those two innings was yet another strikeout by Judge. For as Judge goes, so goes the team usually.Īnd the Yanks opened with two innings Saturday night in that uncomfortable realm of tight and tense. This had felt like the Yankees game, but not at the beginning. The Guardians had a two-games-to-one lead. Schmidt then got ahead of Oscar Gonzalez 1-2, but Gonzalez lashed a two-run single to center.
An RBI single by Amed Rosario made it 5-4. The absence of Scott Effross and Michael King and Chad Green and Ron Marinaccio was evident in this usage.Īnd when a Myles Straw blooper fell in front of a lunging Oswaldo Cabrera in left with one out and Steven Kwan followed with a single, Boone signaled for Schmidt.
And like Jonathan Loaisiga, who also had appeared in Game 3. No Clay Holmes, who had pitched in each of the first two games like Peralta. He had gotten the last out in the seventh inning. The Yankees led 5-3 going to the ninth inning. Gerrit Cole, on normal rest, will try to save the Yankees’ season on Sunday to get this best-of-five back to New York for a decisive game Monday night.

After their 10-inning win in The Bronx on Friday, the Guardians are now leading this Division Series two games to one. Because the Guardians’ rally completed against Schmidt in the ninth inning brought Cleveland a 6-5 triumph.
