Through 3 in Game 2 of the ALCS here is how the Yankees scoring has broken down.
In the Division Series and ALCS the Yankees have scored 10 runs in 6 innings against the closers Johnson and Valverde and 10 runs in 55 innings against everyone else.
If the Orioles and Tigers closers could have closed out their innings, the Yankees offense would be historically bad.
Here's a tip. Leave in the 8th inning pitcher against the Yankees.
Of course, Sully, if Johnson had closed out the Yankees, the NYY would be home playing golf right now.
