Why load them up?  
Dunedin81 : 7/27/2014 3:32 pm : link
Betances can strike just about anyone out, now a walk or a HBP brings in a run.
That's a great play by Frankie

Keeping it a tie game took some doing there

Bad control by Betances  
section125 : 7/27/2014 3:37 pm : link
today and still gets it done. A bit of John Wetteland in him.
Betances cleans up huff's mess  
PetesHereNow : 7/27/2014 3:37 pm : link
Please dfa huff.

BigBlueShock : 7/27/2014 3:38 pm : link
under no circumstances should they be pitching to Bautista in that situation. Late in the game, first base open, Navarro on deck? You want to pitch to Bautista? No thanks
Betances is just money in the bank  
RasputinPrime : 7/27/2014 3:38 pm : link
love it. His visible anger at being directed to IBB Bautista was awesome.
Betances has surrendered 2 HR this season  
Dunedin81 : 7/27/2014 3:42 pm : link
...
Right now Betances  
section125 : 7/27/2014 3:43 pm : link
could be the MVP of this team since Tanaka is out.
horrible throw by Betances to  
RasputinPrime : 7/27/2014 3:52 pm : link
get Rasmus to 3rd. No outs. Not liking this set-up
poor  
MookGiants : 7/27/2014 3:53 pm : link
pitch by Betances, has to get that ball in the dirt
That sucks...  
Dunedin81 : 7/27/2014 3:53 pm : link
of course that's what happens when your offense is, predictably, anemic.
Lil Papi with the sacfly  
RasputinPrime : 7/27/2014 3:53 pm : link
damnit.

4-3
Deep fly by Kawasaki  
section125 : 7/27/2014 3:54 pm : link
for Sac Fly. Not good.
Just so unnecessary  
Kyle in NY : 7/27/2014 3:55 pm : link
with that throw to first base. Need the offense to pick up the pitchers for once.
Please no GIDP

Wtf  
BigBlueShock : 7/27/2014 4:04 pm : link
A freaking bunt. Unbelievable. Why can't Gardner steal a base anymore?
Shouldn't have to bunt to move Gardner  
Kyle in NY : 7/27/2014 4:04 pm : link
Just steal the base
Mooks favorite  
section125 : 7/27/2014 4:04 pm : link
play there. Probably good with Captain DP up.
If your 2 hitter  
MookGiants : 7/27/2014 4:04 pm : link
has to bunt every fucking time in that situation then he shouldnt be your 2 hitter. Let Gardner steal and stop fucking wasting outs
That fucking bunt  
illmatic : 7/27/2014 4:05 pm : link
let him steal.
That's exactly why this team  
BigBlueShock : 7/27/2014 4:05 pm : link
cannot give away outs. Gardy needs to steal that base
Stealing is the one thing  
section125 : 7/27/2014 4:06 pm : link
Ellsbury is much better at than Gardner.
Beltran  
MookGiants : 7/27/2014 4:07 pm : link
bails them out, nice.

Bunt was still an awful play.
Like I said  
BigBlueShock : 7/27/2014 4:07 pm : link
terrific strategy, with the bunt! Nice Beltran
Beltran saved their ass there.  
Dave in Hoboken : 7/27/2014 4:08 pm : link
Whew.
it's an awful play  
RasputinPrime : 7/27/2014 4:08 pm : link
unless it works.

And the likelihood that Jeter was going to hit a DP, it was a no-brainer.

4-4
Of course I'm joking  
BigBlueShock : 7/27/2014 4:08 pm : link
that is still a brutal decision by Girardi (or Jeter)
i'm very happy  
MookGiants : 7/27/2014 4:08 pm : link
that Betances is off the hook. The offense owed him that.

Not one person has suggested that it was a good idea to leave Gardner at first and let Jeter swing. The entire premise is that Gardner needs to steal second. Jeter is not hitting into a do if Gardy is on second
McCann just isn't making  
Kyle in NY : 7/27/2014 4:11 pm : link
good contact on a consistent basis. 3-1 count and a weak ground ball. Worrisome.

Nice professional AB by Beltran before that though.
At the very least  
MookGiants : 7/27/2014 4:12 pm : link
hit and run with Jeter. If he has to bunt every time in that situation, then he needs to hit in the bottom of the order.

Giving up an out there with Gardner's speed is so dumb.

I think playing 1st base is hurting him at the plate.
Wow  
BigBlueShock : 7/27/2014 4:17 pm : link
Headley is gonna be a fan favorite if he keeps playing like this. He's been great
The pitch selection  
MookGiants : 7/27/2014 4:20 pm : link
there made no sense to me. Why did he keep going to the fastball? Bury one in the dirt
Robertson missed his  
section125 : 7/27/2014 4:21 pm : link
mark last two pitches. WTF.
Fuckity fuck...  
Dunedin81 : 7/27/2014 4:21 pm : link
two runs brought in less by bad pitching than by mental errors by those pitchers.
Navarro  
Phil in LA : 7/27/2014 4:21 pm : link
kills us. All these former Yankees...
Awful  
illmatic : 7/27/2014 4:22 pm : link

Dioner fucking Navarro  
Kyle in NY : 7/27/2014 4:22 pm : link
Come on. D-Rob not using his curveball this inning.

loss. Two awful losses in a row
Kind of hard  
illmatic : 7/27/2014 4:32 pm : link
to get excited about the start after the all-star break when they just lose these games at home to a division rival that they're neck and neck with.
what is brutal  
RasputinPrime : 7/27/2014 4:32 pm : link
is that we ever let Melky go. He really has come into his own. Brutal loss.
Good home stand  
Kyle in NY : 7/27/2014 4:33 pm : link
ends on two bad notes. Some bad mental and physical errors by the relieves, which is frustrating.
Bull pen didn't get it  
section125 : 7/27/2014 4:33 pm : link
done today. But then again, the pathetic offense was just as guilty.
A 7-3 homestand is nice...  
Dunedin81 : 7/27/2014 4:33 pm : link
but it easily could have been 9-1.
Just  
GatorNation : 7/27/2014 4:33 pm : link
Brutal. Can't afford to lose 2 at home to this team. Both in terrible fashion too.
