Well this is definitely not the note you'd like to head into tomorrow on. After an impressive win on Labor Day afternoon the Yanks drop consecutive games to the sub-.500 O's and lose the series. With Toronto's loss today they had a chance to head into the biggest series in three years tied in the loss column atop the division and they couldn't hang on.
You can look at tonight and question Girardi for how he managed the bullpen or blame Drew for making two errors and basically handing the Orioles three runs but the bottom line is that tonight's offense relied solely around Carlos Beltran and for the second straight game the Yanks were pretty much shut down by a mediocre righthander.
I honestly have no idea how these next four games are going to go. There's nothing to analyze. There's no doubt they miss Tex but he aint coming back. We've seen this lineup prosper without him and put up runs better than anyone else in baseball outside of Toronto. We've also seen them disappear for games at a time. We'll have to wait and see who's going to show up tomorrow.
