IT'S A WALK OFF...


But not the team we wanted.


Now give credit where credit is due, both pitchers, Andy Pettitte and Zack Greinke pitched well.  Pettitte gave up 8 hits but just 2 runs and Greinke gave up 5 hits and 2 runs. It was a battle against a good team, no doubt, but we just ended up losing which is unfortunate.  It also makes today's trade deadline more important for the Yankees who just have no offense whatsoever.


The run scoring went like this: In the 2nd, Lyle Overbay homered, his 12th.  Later in the fourth, Overbay grounded out allowing Alfonso Soriano to score. Then... nothing.


In the bottom of the 9th, Mark Ellis hit a liner to Brett Gardner allowing Andre Ethier to score.  That came off Shawn Kelley and that's the ball game.  Not sure why the Yankees chose the go to Kelley when David Robertson was pitching before that and clearly could have handled it, but you can't go back... the Yankees lost. Blah!

Final: Dodgers 3 - Yankees 2

And by the way... that GIF up top? That's from the movie Zoolander.  If you haven't seen it, see it... it's fun... more fun than the Yankees right now.
