 They did not absolutely pulverize Betances, but he did give up those four hits and that is a Frustrating way for the Yankees to go down and again it reminds you in the absence of a oldest Chapman This is the way that he had tried to line things up get two innings out of David Robertson Who was very efficient in the sixth inning hence he could pitch in the seventh But the more you roll the dice with more relievers the more chance that something could go wrong, right? And that's exactly what happened Betances has been phenomenal for the Yankees this year you look at the numbers that he's been able to put up the batting average Against him is under 150 and again in that inning I think some of his problem was that his breaking pitches were a little bit up and the Blue Jays just put the ball in play What helps make Betances so good his ability to get strikeouts and just put batters away in that inning He did register one strikeout But when he really could have used the ability of a swing and miss pitch Whether it's the fastball up or one of those breaking pitches getting him a swing and miss he was unable to get it through yesterday It was only nine pitches, so he was obviously ready to go But sometimes Bob you just don't have the feel for that breaking pitch And I'm curious to see what Dylan might say in the clubhouse about whether or not he felt He was at his best meantime as we mentioned looks like they were figuring out Thomas Panone The rookie starter for the Blue Jays in that first inning But things then change shows we take a look at the Yankees box score in the end result jack What we see is just six total hits two runs and again problems with runners in scoring position as they went Oh for four and left five on base yet You just kept waiting for them to potentially break through against Panone because he's not a guy who's up there lighting up the Velocity board so to speak he's 88. He's 89, but you heard both John Flaherty and Paul O'Neill talk about his deception He worked in a change-up. He worked in a curve ball This was only his fourth major league start and he looked like a very cool and confident customer out there The Yankees get those two runs in the first inning and that game could have gotten away from Panone He did not allow that to happen But if you're the Yankee offense, you've got to make some adjustments. You've got to figure out a way Okay, this is what this kid is trying to do here making adjustment trying to do some more damage That's why I said this game was both sleepy and scary You just had a feeling when the Yankees weren't adding on that they were leaving that door open for the blue jays to do something and the blue Jays did it had no margin for error and it feels like the Yankees have played a lot of those games lately and They've stalled Jack literally over their last 17 going 7 and 10 the offense for the most part It's been okay two runs today isn't gonna win you a lot of ball games It's been the pitching in different pockets that have had the problems and again It goes back to a conversation you and I had on the pregame at what point you start building momentum as you head towards the playoffs Because you want to feel good going in even if it is just a one one game plan Yeah, the answer to that question would be yesterday or the day before that or the day before that if you're Aaron Boone You can tell his he answers questions before and after games. He's searching for that right formula, too He knows that this Yankee team is better than it has shown It just hasn't produced in the way the Yankees have been hoping and Boone has been expecting I go back to something I said on the pregame Boone said that the Yankees are aching to prove that they are an elite team And when you look at where they are in the standings that record tells you they are elite But they just haven't been elite lately and I know we talked about pitching having given a problem The pitching wasn't the problem today It was definitely offense the last 31 batters to go to the plate against the Blue Jays today The Yankees collected four hits their offense is better than that and needs to produce more than that Against the combination of Panone Giles and lighter junior. They just didn't do it again That's what's perplexing right Friday night's game They string together a bunch of hits five in the first today two in the first Seemed like they have a kid on the ropes and then they can't do anything against it
