Yankees: You are about to be exposed
After watching the New York Yankees lose the rubber match down in Tampa 3-0, I started to panic. The game was painful but quick as clear by the zero runs scored. Rays starter Alex Cobb whiffed the Yankee hitters, as he didn’t allow a base runner to reach third over his 8 1/3 innings pitching. [...]
