And, 85 appears to have replaced the 100 pitch limit. Sabathia removed at 84. We’ve seen that all season long, no matter who was on the mound. To CC’s credit, he made that work to cover 6 innings. The 85-pitch limit for CC goes back to Girardi. The analytics say that’s all the the old boy has left in him, after that he becomes a punching bag. Once a man gets saddled with a reputation, it sure can be tough to overcome. What if that was true two years ago, but he could make an adjustment? Well, we are never going to know... The Yankees have a good pen and Boone is going to lean on it big time.

Gardy and Hicks can get a hit any day now.

Caught up, now. I agree that was a quick hook with Ottavino. Wasted Kahnle that inning. Could have got that last out with Ottavino and used Kahnle this inning. Instead it will be Chad Green who I don't trust yet. Of course it comes back to bite the Yanks in bottom of the 8th.

Green looks like a man wondering if his AAA adventures may restart any day from now. His location stunk the stadium out that inning...

All right men...you have six more outs. Do something before you use them up...

Boone uses two of the team's best relievers to get through the 7th and then uses one of the worst relievers to pitch the entire 8th. That's a special kind of stupid.

Does it have to rain for every home game?
