The Yankees scored eight runs, but the pitching could not hold it.


Devin Williams was as bad as he could be. He blew a 4 run 9th inning lead. A four run ninth inning lead. A FOUR RUN lead... in the 9th inning.


He then gave up a two-run homer in the 10th.


Ugggg.


Rays 10, Yankees 8


Tim "Lou Gehrig" Kabel will have the full report at 6:00 a.m. tomorrow.

Gomez gave up the homer in the 10th, not Williams. He only gave up 4 runs, not 6. lol

Williams' pitching was so bad that if Luigi commented on it, I'd probably have to give it a Like.

Seen enough. It’s time. Cool Hand Luke should be the closer. If Williams wants his big payday, he can start earning it.

I'm starting to think Devin is a choke artist. Indeed Luke should close. Luke has that aura and stuff to be the closer not Devin.

The Least Among Them.png

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

—Jonathan Eig, New York Times best-selling author of Luckiest Man, Opening Day, and Ali: A Life

From Compton to the Bronx.jpg

"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."
