This is the kind of game the Yankees only win against bad teams. Three hits, two runs, each on a solo home run. That will not result in post-season wins.

Replying to

and I'll agree that scoring 2 runs per game will prove insufficient

in those games in which the Yankee defense fails to hold the opposing team to 1 run or less. on average, the Yankees have allowed 3.7 r/g

so, I'm also of the opinion that the Yankees should score 5 or more per

but I'm willing to admit that, in games where the other team is not allowed to score any,

the Yankees are almost certain to prevail.

it may be cutting it a bit too fine for the comfort of the fans, but shutting the other guys out cuts it every day of the week.

They probably drew it up with more runs, but this is fine.

Nice kick by Schlittler. But still nowhere near as good as O'Neill's

Schlittler got a break from the 3B ump

"This charming and meticulously researched book will remind you of baseball’s power to change and enrich lives far beyond the diamond."

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

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."
