Well that was a bummer. The Yankees followed up their convincing win in the Subway Series opener with a clunker on Saturday afternoon, losing 8-2 to the Mets. The four-game winning streak has been snapped, but the Yankees have still won seven of their last nine games. It’s Saturday night, so let’s recap with bullet points:
- Sad-bathia: Unlike CC Sabathia‘s first two starts, which had quite a bit of good sprinkled around the One Bad Inning™, Saturday’s start was a disaster. Sabathia gave up three homers and nine total hits in five innings, surrendering seven runs.
