Back end of Yankees bullpen fails to back up CC Sabathia

BALTIMORE -- For the New York Yankees, this victory was supposed to be as automatic as they come: a one-run lead in the seventh inning with the ball safely in the right hand of Dellin Betances, who according to the blueprint would pass it to the left hand of Andrew Miller, who would turn it over to Aroldis Chapman, and everyone goes home happy after an unlikely series win over the Baltimore Orioles.

But nothing went according to plan Sunday at Camden Yards.

Betances gave up a run -- two, in fact -- for the fourth straight outing.
