    Anderson coaxing Yankees into ground ball game. Nothing close to a big bomb, yet!

    Cesspool relieves an achy CC in inning 4. Still tied 1-1.

    Voit does not look that he’ll score on a base hit.

    Wow. Both calls are overturned from a DP to bases loaded no one out. That’s a first
    for me. Never saw that before!

    Brett Anderson is the epitome of ground ball heaven.....for Oakland. For the Yankees, it’s a hellish nightmare!

    Most Fans haven't stopped drinking since the A's swept the Yanx in Oakland.

    Yanx biggest challenges in PS is surviving Oakland, Houston, Cleveland and Tampa Bay.
    Regardless of in Season W/L Records, and Home Field Advantage; Post Season is a new Season unto it's own.

    Kahnle looks off. A base hit, hits a batter and is 2-0 on third batter. Game is tied. 2-2. And threatening
    for more with second & third & no one out. Does not look good.

    Kahnle shit the bed ......big time.....giving up a two run double to Profar.Yankees trail 4-2. And BaBoone
    sticking with Kahnle because that is what he does best!.....leave him in for more runs.

    Trashman phenom Gearrin showing that he’s a minor league pitcher....but leave it to BaBoone
    to put him into the mix as A’s add to their lead.....6-2. To say the least, bad pitching makes these
    Yankees look sluggish. Looks like Yankees will lose series to these A’s. With no comeback
    in sight, Yankees will be 0 - 4 against this west coast team.

    Another one of cashmans Dumpster Doo-rights comes in and turns into a gas tank. Looks like the Oakland starter who has never beaten the Yankees is going to hit the law of averages tonight, As for the Yankees they've failed to send a message that last weeks sweep was an accident. This '19 Yankees team despite its alleged success still lacks a killer instinct and a sense of urgency!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Watching this game, I am hoping beyond all hope that this is how the Yankee season will not end.......
    like last year....watching a parade of minor league pitchers take the mound and get blasted by
    their opponent. And Trashman still prevails as Yankee GM!

    So, this is what concession looks like! This by far is BaBoone’s best move.
