Yanks Take Series, Want Blood

The Good

Bartolo Colon, Joba, Mo. Also known as BarJoMo. The 'lock down clean-up crew in games that have gotten away from the starter' for the Yankees. This is how they drew it up in the offseason folks. Game tying home run in the ninth by Posada was good. Pie in the tenth even better. Oh! And that catch by Swisher at the wall.

The Bad

I'm going to go out on a limb here, I think Phil Hughes may be hurt. If you've ever watched Hughes pitch you may have noticed that he has this odd pause in his delivery. He brings the ball up to about a 3/4 position, pauses and then launches into the pitch. That's always struck me as something that was going to lead to shoulder trouble. So I'm going to go ahead and guess that there may be more to this loss of velocity than just arm strength.

The Ugly

What was Martin thinking on that snap throw to first? It's like he said to himself, "I wonder how far I can throw a baseball" and then just went for it.
