OT - Chris Young struck out against pitching machine in Yankees intrasquad game

[Dback Jon]

Chris Young will want to put this blunder behind him quickly.

The Yankees played an intrasquad game on Monday in preparation for their Grapefruit League opener on Tuesday. Since most of the team's pitchers were working out elsewhere at the complex, a pitching machine was used for the game.

It appears Young had a little trouble picking up the machine's fastball.

Somewhere, 82 is torn between laughing at CY, or crying knowing he is now a Yankee.

I'm sure with a little practice, Chris will get his eye back and hit his trademark mile-high popups.

Jeez! That's like striking out in softball!

LMAO! Though, can't really say I'm surprised... CY was heard muttering to the reporters on-site, "It's only practice man... We talking practice!"

Haven't seen the patented Chris Young At Bat in a while.

Pitch 1: swing and miss
Pitch 2: foul ball
Pitch 3: strike out looking


exact pattern at least twice per game

He is off to a great start, well great in comparison to his normal numbers.
