Yanks Comeback Falls Short In Another Series Loss

by @ 5:49 pm. Filed under 2009 Yankees

This shit has to stop.  The Yankees scored two runs in the ninth, but they stranded the tying run at third base in a 6-5 loss to the Marlins.  The big ninth inning his was a two run triple by Brett Gardner and he also singled earlier in the game.  Alex Rodriguez singled and drove in two runs while Derek Jeter singled, stole his fourteenth base and then scored a run.

CC Sabathia left in the second with a forearm injury.  That’s not good.  Just as bad is how the pen performed in this one.  Brett Tomko took the loss after he gave up three runs and Phil Cooke got just one batter out but gave up a run himself.  Tomko has an ERA north of six now so they might have to make a move there. 

Now the Yankees deficit is four games.  There’s a much needed day off and then Chien-Ming Wang throws on Tuesday.  He has to show something soon because 0-5 ain’t going to cut it.  The Yankees will get to see Braves pitching phenom Tommy Hanson, so this game could be a fun one.
