    Just go out there and kick some San Fran Butt and Nova remove your head from your butt prior to start time. Read an ESPN article that Hal and A-rodham had a chat. Would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when that went down. Hal probably told him he was a member in good standing despite his actions and that the "know nothing: fans were wrong to want him gone.

    Nova skating on thin ice. Probably be gone by 5th. How bout a couple runs off Cueto?
    Yanks badly needed the sweep vs Balt...was a two game swing in the standings from 4/4 to 3/4, instead of wiping out four games from the deficit, it became two.....might as well dream on and shoot for a sweep vs SF with Madbum already out of the way. Looks like Yanks have the same old inconsistent offense out there today.

    Thus far Nova had done his job, how much further is the question. Given his history I'd say he needs to be monitored close from this point. Betances & Miller showed no on shit last night so tag offence, you are it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    So, 7th inning, Yanks have lead runner on 2nd, one out with Gardner and Ellsbury due up.
    Bochy licks his chops and brings in sidewinding LH Lopez who has allowed 1 hit to LHBs in the last 30something ABs....and Joe the Genius has Gardner and Ellsbury back to back at the top of the lineup...
    Gardner is batting .250 with .309 OBP and ONE HR vs LHP,
    Ellsbury is batting. 257 with. 295 OBP and ONE HR vs LHP.

    Lopez easily dispatches Gardner and Ellsbury on weak grounders to 2ND base.
    Lol, They didn't have a chance.
    Girardi should break these two up at the top of the lineup....They're too easy pickings and relatively harmless vs LHP.

    Hicks leads off 10th with a walk....here we go again.
    Gardner and Ellsbury due up vs another LH....

    ....wild pitch, Hicks to 2ND base....maybe Gardner will smarten up and drop something down the 3rd base line and AT LEAST TRY and make something happen?

    Gardy walks, 1st and 2nd no out...Bochy goes to his closer RH Casillas to face Ellsbury.

    Sac bunt by Ellsbury, 2nd and 3rd one out........they INT walk Beltran, now loaded bases one out McCann at bat....stay tuned.....fatass McCann pops out to short LF on first pitch, all runners hold. Castro up, two out.
    Castro flies out, inning over.

    McCann already pulled a blunder earlier getting caught off 1st base on a routine flyball thinking it was two out.
    Is HE a head case? Lmao, nah, he's one of the "good guys"....and having quite a pedestrian season. Hate to see this guy when HE loses a step or two in couple of years.

    Why is McCann first pitch swinging?

    McCann just with zero awareness of the situation with that idiotic first pitch swing. The bases are loaded and you need to make the pitcher throw a strike there.

    Well, he isn't exactly threatening to win the batting title.
    That was the ball game......my instincts tell me they will now suffer a tough loss.

    I'll give Girardi this much, he had balls, or stupidy (?) pitching to Crawford with lead run on 3rd two out.
    Crawford is one of their very best hitters in this current lineup.

    Imo, Yanks need a HR to win this....I don't see them putting a couple of hits together. And at this point, I would much rather have Dave Kingman instead of Tex.

    Well there it is. Unless they can do something in the bottom of the 12th this will be a very poor lose. Just letting a struggling team off the hook due to ineptness on offense.

    Almost like clockwork, as soon as the big Yankee three RP are done, Swarzak gives up a double and an RBI single. There ya go!
