Hicks barely running for that ball because he knows he'll end up on the IL again

Same result as if he caught it. 

Except we’d only need one out which is a big difference.

Two veterans going after that ball.  Hicks doesn't look like he was running full speed on the replay there.  Hicks at least with his arm and momentum to throw to home plate would have had a better chance to catch anyone running.

No one better to flub a play like those 2. Sheesh.

[Billy F-Face3]

Westburg is currently our best defensive 2nd baseman. I think this game has made that obvious.

Hicks loafing in the outfield again. I can see why he drove Yankee fans crazy. 

Did you see where he was playing ?

Cleveland having a ton of luck here.  In the game Rays vs Angels, the Rays got two bloop hits to win.

Not really

No because we would be out of the inning now. 

Yeah, you're right. True. This is pathetic.

Hicks range isn't what I remember it with the Yankees. He has hit well though. Maybe the injuries he's had over the years have caught up to him in the field.

Just forfeit the next two games cuz so our BP can get their energy back. I mean, throwing 15 balls, 4 nights in a row is enough to bring any man to his breaking point, right?

[spiritof66]

Some bad plays, sure, but the fundamental problem is that Elias didn't get this team enough pitching to make it to the end of the season.

Was he playing away from it? 

[Mooreisbetter27]

Bad game for us. Frazier is horrid defensively. And our bp is on fumes right now. This has been one of the crappiest innings all year. A hbp, 3 walks, a pop up to right that should’ve been caught and a dribbler between pitcher and first and they score 3 runs. We basically gifted them 3 runs after scoring 2 the previous inning.

I've had just about enough of Frazier why can't Westburg play more?

Westburg did start at 3B. But I know what you're saying. They could have shifted him over there.
