Severino just threw 4 of the most stressful hitless innings ever.
Actually, the first was a breeze. The next 3, though...

Fucking Aaron Boone, man. Shocked that he put Severino back out there to start the fifth, with the pitch count and stress factor. Two hits, no outs, now he's bringing in Betances.
Could have started the inning with him, but he's kind of the worst guy to bring in with people already on base, you know.

As I was saying, Betances was the perfect guy to bring in there. 2 pop-ups and a strike out.
And to be truthful, the thing I was scared of with Betances was people running on him. But in reality, (1) this Oakland team doesn't run, and (2) other Yankee relievers would come in and immediately give up the bases-clearing home run, so Betances really wasn't the worst option by a long shot.
With that said, watch Boone trot him back out there for a second inning of work. (My memory is that Betances is not particularly effective in inning two.)

Kershaw. I think the WS experience will help him this time around.
By unknown Go To PostCLE got this.
Congrats, Smokey.
By unknown Go To PostCLE got this.And like clockwork, it's now 4-0 Astros.
The Indians suck and I've never forgiven them for blowing a 3-1 World Series lead. The Donaldson trade was sketchy and, also, fuck that guy. How could anybody root for team that has that haircut on it?
