Raissman: Girardi act will wear thin if Yanks miss playoffs

About the only consistency in this inconsistent Yankee season is Joe Girardi’s prickly and evasive demeanor during his postgame press conferences, which air on the Yankees Entertainment & Sports Network.

With his terse rebuttals, delivered with a why-the-hell-are-you-asking-me-that look in his eyes, the manager is a candidate to blow his cool and verbally launch on boss scribes sooner rather than later.

Girardi provided further evidence last Sunday after Oakland’s Jesse Chavez pitched eight scoreless innings, leading the A’s to a 3-0 shutout of the Bombers.

In the postgame session, YES’ Meredith Marakovits tossed a John Filippelli-esque (he YES’ executive producer) designer softball at Girardi.
