 I'll tell you what bottom of the fourth jack took 31 minutes seven batters reached before the first out was even recorded eight hits eight runs it was the continued succession of hitting early in the counts to unrolling breaking balls pitches that clearly weren't good they got the Yankees into a lot of trouble yeah holder just did not have his stuff and you're right Bob some of these hits occurred early in the count which obviously impacts what the Yankee thinking is going on in the dugout but even if you say okay Pierce's home run you're going to give him one more batter because you don't really have anybody ready in the bullpen after JD Martinez is double you just have to figure out a way to kill some time even if he has to try and make pick off attempts to second base five times in a row I know there's gamesmanship sportsmanship whatever you want to call it every manager in baseball history and every pitching coach they figured out a way to kill some time until you can get that next picture ready the Yankees didn't have green ready as you and I said I think they were trying to stay away from green and CESA to a certain degree they end up using both of those guys and Bob we haven't even discussed Chad Green is probably your choice ahead of holder David Cohen brought this up to it's a high-level situation you could have brought in green to start the fourth as opposed to holder but again I think the Yankee plan was let's get maybe two innings out of holder then go to green then go to your big guys Robertson Britain but answers Chabin the Yankees never even got a chance to get there this game gets way away from them and it's the worst possible way to start a big four game series where you wanted to send a message to the Red Sox the reverse happened they send that an emphatic message to the Yankees and there is a reason that the Red Sox wanted Steve Pierce in this lineup he's very good within the division so they traded
