Message: [QUOTE="RSHERMVIKES, post: 2873592, member: 2251"] The series was lost when the Yankees left 8 to 10 runners on base in game one without the benefit of a base hit! If they could have gotten that hit and steal game one they're up 2-0 going back to NY! If I'm not mistaken they had the bases loaded 2x and 2nd and 3rd once without scoring a run! Then they would need one out of 2 at home to clinch. I've said all season they didn't have the starting pitching to win it all, too many ? marks! Having a tough bullpen doesn't help if the starters give up 4-5 runs in the 1st and 2nd innings! Houston, Dodgers, Red Sox even Cleveland has better starters than NY! Also the injuries reshaped their season if they were healthier they wouldn't have fallen so far behind and had a shot at the Division title. Too many important players were lost for large chunks of the season! [/QUOTE]
