    This whole group needs to gather in its act. Saw the game highlights on "Quick Pitch" this AM. Oakland A's players of the game were Clippard and Holder. Bronx Bombers, hell the offense can't get off of the flight line.

    As mentioned on these boards, in April everything on offense was clicking. Come May, it's tough
    to get three consecutive hits. As for the pitching, one word comes to mind....... erratic. Of late,
    CC has pitched well. So, why am a waiting for this bubble to burst?

    Games been under way for over an hour, wonder when the Yankees are going to wake up and play baseball instead of making this Oakland Pitcher look like Cy Young!!!!!!!!

    Right now, offense is off the tracks. Yet, Yankees score their lone run without the benefit of a base hit. In fact, they have no hits through 3,
    That's how things are going.

    ^^^^^It becomes tough on Yankee pitchers when the offense cannot do anything. One mistake and the game goes to the
    opponent. That's what I mean by.......I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop!

    For crying out loud, it's a tied game. A two out walk & Didi's forced throw home just shows how no offense
    can create mental mistakes.........Being no hit by a rookie pitcher makes it worse.

    Judge saves Castro's miff.......otherwise, A's would be leading.

    And CC gives them back 1 run. Yankee pen last 10 days has been 6.81 ERA. CC exits...................and now I'm really holding my breath.
    Enter Adam Warren.

    It's never easy with this pen, but Warren got through the 7th with a 1 run lead.
    Exhale.

    Montas is toast, stick a fork in him. When a pitcher doesn't aggressively puruse striking out Carter, issuing him a pass, then ya' know he's done, Flambée the fk... drive 'em in....

    Walks will kill you.................if you are a pitcher. But Yankees let A's off the hook. Zero runs.

    Erratic Clippard in the 8th He's already talking to himself........as he walks a batter. Here we go.........Clippard sucks, plain and simple. Anybody disagree, you are not watching a self-destruct
    pitcher. Now, Dellin Betances has to bail out Clippard.

    Second and third with one out...............two Ks. EXHALE!................again. This is what happens with little offense.
