Watching this game, I was reminded of The Who’s classic hit “Won’t Get Fooled Again.” To play off a line from the end of the song, “meet the second half, same as the first half.” A two-run first inning would prove a simple mirage with the team failing to score for the rest of the game against the NL-worst Rockies pitching staff. On the other side of the ball, Carlos Rodón, Michael King, and Albert Abreu all fell victim to the big fly as the Yankees dropped the first game of the second half, 7-2. They’re now in a last-place tie with the Red Sox.
