    Gardner = safe on an error
    Headley = singles to right & Garner is thrown out trying to go from 1st to 3rd.
    A Roid = singles to center

    If not for Gardner should be bases loaded & nobody out.

    ...as has been pointed out numerous times, Gardner is by no means the smartest base runner.

    ...one of the Cardinal sins of Baseball is that you never make the first or third out at 3B.

    ...it was a bad decision.

    Going to be .500 and falling. Mediocre pitching and hitting is what I see. They're better than last year how exactly?

    Another game with two runs in the second and then nothing for eight innings. You just cannot continue to have the bottom four of the lineup be completely inept offensively. Drew batted .177 in April and is batting .176 in May. To continue with him is just madness. He's simply not a MLB hitter anymore at this point.

    ...hammer, it's been a long time since I was more optimistic about the upcoming Football season and the team I follow than this current Yankees team...and that speaks volumes considering the Raiders were 3-13 last year.

    Well Ron fwiw at 3-13 there's no where to go but up. And yeah these Yankees are just painful to watch. At this point, give the kids a chance.
