It's funny how Yankee fans are. The team reels off 8 straight, takes over solo first in the toughest division in baseball, begins to chase down the Dodgers for the best record in either league, and all Yankee fans can do is second guess Girardi for letting this pitcher pitch too long or fail to give that pitcher a proper opportunity.
Now I'm not saying Girardi's a genius. He's not a top coach, fine. But when he's winning like this let's just sit back and enjoy, because the Yankees seem like they're just getting started with this whole "living up to their potential" thing.
Oh, and we've all seen the frauds at the Times try and spread the myth that the Yankees don't hit rookie pitchers or pitchers they've never seen before, and this game might have provided more evidence for that myth. That is, until YES posted this stat:
Yankee record against rookie pitchers this year: 19-7, best in the majors.
Onward.
