2 hits and 3 K’s sounds like a Helsley adventure.

Speaking of adventures. Jake Bird and Bednar just blew a 9-4 7th inning lead for the Yankees over the Marlins in their debuts. Bird gave up a grand slam to Kyle Stowers. Bednar gave up 2 runs. Marlins now lead 10-9.

Reminder he will be a FA, the in season trade cancels qualifying offer status.

Plus Doval comes in with a 2 run lead in the bottom of the ninth and proceeds to give up 3 runs and the Yankees lose 13-12. Bird, Bednar and Doval give up 9 runs in their 2+ innings of work in the game. OUCH!!

Crazy! The Yankees had Weaver and Devin Williams as their late inning relievers and avoided them altogether to go with the new blood. Oops. That didn’t go so well.

How in the heck did Helsley use that entrance song.. It was the signature entrance of Trevor Hoffman for years .
Talk about a copycat .

Wow. Yeah. Good point.

Remember how good teams find ways to win? Remember that magic? Bad teams find ways to lose.
