06/30: Farnsworth!
Posted by: Patrick
Everyone's talking about Kyle's outburst last night.
I didn't see it, but if he was actually disrespectful to Torre, what a backwards thing that is considering that Torre has gone back to him over and over again (something that plenty of people have criticized him for - not that that matters) and he gets mad when we're struggling for victories and the winning run is on in the 8th and the Hammer of God is ready? I mean, really, you have to be kidding.
Kyle Farnsworth had pitched himself into trouble yet again. The Yankees' shaky eighth-inning bridge to Mariano Rivera had given up a pair of singles with one out in a one-run game with the A's. The setup man came back with a strikeout, then Joe Torre came out to pull him. ...
"He was upset," Torre said. "But he has to understand, it shouldn't be an embarrassment when you bring Mariano Rivera in."
