I have to be honest. I didn’t watch the game today. Yankees lose 9-3.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."

I didn't watch the game either. I knew they were going to score 3 runs or less after putting up 16 runs the night before. This offense is so inconsistent. Obviously missing Soto in the lineup didn't help.
Most of us called it even when he starters were pitching lights out, the bullpen was not really put together not just cheaply in terms of money, but also in terms of any real MLB success. Today showed it again just how true our thinking was. Add in the fact they don't do a good job in the minors of properly developing relievers, this is what you get.
And in typical fashion: 6 LOB, 2 CS, 1-6 RISP (shockingly no GIDPs, though), a couple of garbage-time runs, poor starting pitching, abominably incompetent relief pitching from Mary Pickford and Furd Calebson. It was a full-team loss. Better hope Soto's hand feels better tomorrow.
