NEW YORK (WFAN) — Did Joe Girardi manage the Yankees out of a key victory Thursday night in Boston?
WFAN’s Mike Francesa and Sweeny Murti discussed Friday whether the Yanks skipper made a mistake by bringing in closer Dellin Betances with one out, rather than starting the inning with him.
The Red Sox had a runner on first base and were trailing 5-2 when Betances entered the game. The right-hander then gave up RBI singles to David Ortiz and Mookie Betts before serving up a three-run, walk-off homer to Hanley Ramirez, as Boston won 7-5.
