Non-Live-Blogging Last Night's Game
Okay, I didn't live-blog last night's game, because it was on too late and I was too tired. I did manage to stay up through the top half of the 7th, though, so my belated thoughts.
Defense. The Angels had it. The Yankees did not. Chone Figgins made a great play that prevented the Yankees from scoring a run. A-Rod, on the other hand, made a stupid error that eventually allowed the Angels to score a run. Fortunately Robinson Cano's error didn't wind up costing the Yankees.
Offense. The Yankees stranded too many men on base. They had opportunities in the early innings and could not capitalize on them. Clearly the Angels managed to get their offense really pumping after I fell asleep, since when I fell asleep, the game was tied. So I can't comment too much on the Angels offense. Except to say that second run would not have scored if A-Rod had tried to actually, you know, catch the ball.
