While the month of April was pretty kind to the Yankees, the month of May has been meh.
It behooves the Yankees to beat "not good" teams like the Rangers, especially when they have a really good team named the Royals coming in to town afterwards.

While it may have behooved the Yankees to beat the Rangers, Pineda, Carpenter, and the defense essentially "dehooved" their chances last night. Yes, "dehooved" is not a word. It should be though, cause last night was just brutal to watch. The Yankees have had offensive struggles lately, so scoring nine runs and losing is just a righteous kick in the teeth.
