That Wasn't Pretty

The Good

Mark Reynolds hit like Miguel Cabrera yesterday.

The Bad

No one else did.  The Yankees scored two runs, but the offense was mostly muted.  I don't know that it would have mattered with a 7 run deficit to overcome, but 5 hits, and no homeruns is typically not enough to beat a team.

The Ugly

Kuroda put up another bad line.  5 innings and 7 runs, albeit 5 earned, is more akin to Phil Hughes than Kuroda.  We really need every game at this point, and to be down 7 runs by the 3rd inning, really doesn't position us well.  Whatever is up with Kuroda, I hope corrects itself by his next start.  Maybe it's simply an aversion to the month of August, which will be remedied by his next start occurring in September.  Maybe.

Oh Boy

Nothing.
