Wow. There’s no shame in getting shut down by Cliff Lee and King Felix on back to back nights, but giving up 14 runs to the anemic Mariner offense in those two games is a joke. The less said about Wednesday’s 7-0 ass whooping the better. Instead of pining over that shit show, let me regale you with some (not so) amusing stats:

The Yanks dropped Tuesday’s game 7-4 to the Mariners, but what did you expect with Cliff Lee on the mound?

The Yanks pulled out a 6-5 win over the D-Bags in 10 innings on Wednesday night/Thursday morning, but I’ll be damned if that wasn’t one of the sloppiest games of the season.

…there’s another CC in town.
