    OK, 2-2 Count, Ellsbury on second forcing Cano to hold him close and we are pitching to the outside corner almost helping Victorino's percentage of getting a hit due to the hole left by Cano holding.

    Check swing wasn't even close. That being said the story is Mo blowing the save. Simply can't have that.

    Please people I really don't want to hear any more shit about how great of a job Joe is doing. Check swing aside, as soon as he brought in Joba he mine as well should have just waved the white flag. Then he brings in the lefty Logan to pitch to the lefty Ortiz & has him intentionally walk Ortiz. What the fuck was that. I'm telling you this guy is just dead from the neck up.

    They were done after Mo failed. He has to save that one.

    I think we all need to accept the fact that Mariano Rivera is going to retire as a dogshit pitcher. 2 outs, no one on, and he chokes it big time.

    No reason to think the Sox don't sweep this series easily from here on out.

    The reality is Mo knows it's time to hang it up. But we have been more pretenders than contenders this year I feel. We may catch a break because Angels up 6-2 in bottom of 5th.

    Can also blame having to use him for a four out save the night before. That being said you can't be one strike away with none on and blow the save. Think a couple of those six possible wins would help their position right now?

    Unfortunately, I don't ever see that happening... Should and Will are two totally different things...

    Mo failed. I don't want to hear about Joba or anything else. You have to win that game. Clearly this bullpen is at a disadvantage in extras. The other blunder was not letting Nova try and get through five. It was 3-2 that ended up 6-2.

    Joba should not be brought into any game unless the Yankees have AT LEAST a 3 run lead. But there's enough blame on this one to go around.........

    Girardi pulling Nova to quick.
    Soriano's bone head play at 2nd.
    Rivera blowing the save after 2 outs & no one on.
    Girardi giving the ball to Joba in a must win game
    Romine weak & costly throw to 2nd.

    This was a crushing loss.

    Joba is going to come in at some point when there's nobody left. Blame Cashman for still having him on the roster.

    Terrible loss with Tampa also losing.
