Yankees battled and had their chances.

I wish there was a stat for cheap runs. The Yankees have allowed a lot of unearned runs, but they undoubtedly lead the league in cheap runs allowed. A walk, an error, a wild pitch, two ground outs.

Burnett gives up two hits, sure. But he walks five, two HBPs, four wild pitches, three errors, a missed double play, a missed cutoff man.

The Yankees used to be the team that took advantage of other team's mistakes.
