Outside of the 18 strikeouts, the Yankees had good at-bats

Get it?

I jest. 

Ba dum bum.

Also, the Yankees manager said the same thing:

“We’re behind the eight ball early, and that makes it tough,” Boone said. “Outside of the strikeouts, I thought the at-bats were building off of last night. I thought we grinded it out really well. We made it really tough on Kremer; we couldn’t finish it off.”
