Boston has been playing the Yankees this year like it's 2004 all over again. Plenty of things to be angry about: the umpires blowing calls, WAY TOO MANY runners left on base, poor offense/defense, etc.
CC may be a workhorse, but even I got uneasy when he was allowed to stay as long as he did. That basically unraveled the game and wasted his own effort at keeping the Yankees in it when it was 1-0 for most of the night. I knew they needed more than three runs. Was he out of gas? Feeling too much pressure?
I would have rather them just lose 1-0 instead of having to go through this dreck. The only highlight of the game for me was seeing A-Rod actually making himself useful for once in a clutch situation.
I agree that CC was tiring, but he was better than any alternative in the pen (except Mo). This game should have been won in the early innings when there was mistake after mistake. On to the Mets!

They're playing scared against them. When Sabathia gave up that hit to Nick Green, you had to feel that something bad was going to happen.
