07/02: Missed Opportunities
Pete A. over at LoHud points out
the absolute worst part of this Yankee slide and what really ticks off me, the wasted opportunity.
The Red Sox are 5-7 since June 18. Had the Yankees managed to go just 5-4 on that road trip and 2-1 against Oakland, they would be six games out and everybody would be talking about a summer pennant race.
7-5 - is that too much to ask? Oh right, I guess it was. I guess it could be worse - the Red Sox could have been on fire during this stretch and the Yanks could be 15+ out. Ugh.
