@macwalter_@snyyankees The more you think about it, you can actually reason that there was more of a chance they throw the ball away than get a hit with the guy at 2nd.
I don't agree with taking the risk but I think it's getting a bit blown out of proportion
@DanSlaubaugh This is a bit misleading. If the Yankees win 3 of 4, should focus on what would need to happen in those other 6 games.
Rays 1-5-> NYY 4-2
Rays 2-4-> NYY 5-1
Rays 3-3 -> NYY 6-0
Rays 4-2 or better and they clinch
Next 3 games will be very telling
@YankeesFanEarl I think we will know for sure if there is a chance after the next series. If we sweep and the Rays lose 2 of 3, all of a sudden you are 3 back and there is a chance
@Jwiesel13 They will need to come back to earth at some point. Yankees also got the Angels for the next 3 and then hopefully the Padres play as poorly as they did against the Rays against us
