The only good Yankee

I'm starting to wonder if Boone isn't somehow doing this deliberately.

Leave the two most enthusiastic players and hottest hitters on the bench.

Not pinch run for a 37 year old after he singles so that he doesn't even try to score on a fly ball.

Not take a reliver out who clearly has nothing.

There are more but I'm happy that he's proven that Volpe is elite! Now they'll both be back. Sigh.

When you take the above and addit to all the other bizarre decisions he's made in other playoff games...

No manager can be this bad. There's something genuinely wrong with him.

Also not walking Bregman, who kills them, to load the bases and set up the double play.

Really basic stuff.

Pathetic.

Boone is a moron hired by an arrogant buffoon GM and an owner who is all about making money and not giving the Yankees their best chance to win. Is anyone out there surprised that the Yankees left the bases loaded with nobody out in the ninth. I am sure Boone shot alot of bs after the loss.

Game 1 unfurled about the way I supposed it would. Today's the day to see if these guys fold under pressure. Bello is gettable, and the bully boy Yankees usually make bad pitching pay dearly. If the lineup flails today, and can't put it outside the bounds of Rodon and the bullpen's ability to collapse, and Boone's ability to fuck up, we'll know what we already strongly suspect- this simply is not a championship group.

Yeah, so it comes down to this. The moment of truth. Hope is all we have.
