It’s been a miserable month of April for Chad Green and after his performance Tuesday night he left the Yankees no choice but to send him down to Triple-A Scranton. Green entered the game with a 7-1 lead and actually retired the first batter he faced to end the seventh inning. However, in the eighth, after allowing two hits and a walk to start the inning Justin Bour took him deep for a grand slam.
Green’s outing looked eerily familiar to Sunday’s when he was called upon with the Yankees up 5-0 against the Royals and failed to get an out.
