Feel-good small ball isn't an illusion. It's a small sample size, but it isn't an illusion.

Please don't forget that prior to Wednesday's walk-off win, the Yankee pitchers walked 10 Phillies and blew a 3-run lead in the 8th. The Phillies scored three runs that inning on one hit (a single).

The Yankees aren't very good, but they also aren't very ... smart.

"The Yankees have found different ways to lose this season, but there’s been nothing as wild as Thursday night’s gut-punch loss.

Brooks Kriske threw four wild pitches and gave up two runs in the bottom of the 10th inning as the Yankees crumbled to the Red Sox, 5-4, at Fenway.

“I am still pretty 'to my stomach,' Yankees starter Jordan Montgomery said after watching the Bombers blow a two-run lead in the ninth and a one-run lead in the 10th."

The Yankees suffer the "worst loss of the season" every week or so.
