Take the Pitchers out of the Ball Game; Yankees lose to White Sox
That's right, the Bombers just coming off a 3 game sweep with Cleveland bombed out in the 9th inning. Nova's pitching was great, going 7 & 2/3 innings, with 5 K's and giving up only 1 run . So why did Joe take him out? I dunno...but he certainly had little patience for every other pitcher he put in by taking em out after their 1st mistake. Another thing I don't understand - how come the pitchers can't seem to make a simple out by throwing it to their basemen? The game was scoreless til the 5th, mainly due to great fielding from both teams. De Aza who was 4 for 5 on the night, hit a solo homerun in the 5th. The Yanks answered back in the bottom scoring 2 runs. Teixeira gave us an insurance run in the bottom of the 8th but it wasn't enough. The Sox scored 3 runs in the top of the 9th. Hope still prevailed in the bottom of the 9th with 1 man on and Jeter at bat. Jeter hit a long, high ball back to the wall (would you believe he missed it by this much?) My favorite summer pastime is going out to the ballpark and rooting for the Yankees (sorry Mets fans.) The game ball goes to Granderson who was spectacular in the outfield and at the plate. But my heart goes to Robby, that's Cano, yah know? Take me out to the ballgame. Robby you can take me out anytime. GO YANKEES!!!
