David Bednar secured a 5-out (all strikeouts!) save to secure the win for the Yanks (and Boone's job for another day). We have a new closer.

"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."

Forgot Bednar pitching FRI. I'm hoping he will be available before SUN.
What we badly need are 2/3 relievers who can come in with runners on base and NOT let them score.
Many of you know I'm a die-hard Pirates fan and I'm also a Yankees fan. I have watched Bednar perform all season long, he was horrendous to start off the season and he wound up getting demoted back to AAA then he got brought back up. He's been good ever since. He's a good reliever and I wanted the and I wanted the Yankees to get him because he was relatively inexpensive to trade for and I knew this at least a month before the deadline. Now Yankee fans see what he's capable of. But I'm going to tell you right now he's not a five out guy. He's being mismanaged already by the Yankees
I'm working on an article that is long overdue but one of the points I've made in the article is that why did it take Boone this long to install Bednar as the closer? It should have been done immediately. Not only is he a freaking All Star but that's what he does. He Not only is he a freaking All Star but that's what he does. He closes games. Meanwhile, you have Williams who likes to walk a couple guys and then give up home runs. Not a very tough decision. I think a little league coach could make that decision , honestly, yet here we are. What's going on is nothing short of What's going on is nothing…
the sky is pressing upon the earth
but the fall has been averted for a couple of days
