Stop me if you heard this recently, but the Yankees blew a winnable game last night. Yesterday’s coin flip revolved around the presumptive MVP Shohei Ohtani stepping up to the plate late with a chance to tie the game with one swing. Swing he did, and the game indeed got tied — and once we reached that point, it’s fair if you assumed where it would go next. The Yankees held out until extra innings, but they couldn’t last.
It’s going to be another late night on the West Coast, so while we’re waiting around we’ve got plenty to go over.
