Last night, the Bronx Bumblers gave yet another lesson in how to play fundamentally unsound baseball. Losing for the eighth time in thirteen games, and for the third time in four tries to their new archenemies, the Tampa Bay Rays, the performance the Yankees put forth between the white lines was as embarrassing and as inexcusable as the performance of the morons in the stands who delayed the game in the bottom of the eighth inning by throwing baseballs onto the field.
Inexcusable. Embarrassing. Infuriating. The Bombers' play on the field has been all of those things thus far this year and at least one fan (spoiler alert - he bears an uncanny resemblance to me) cannot help but continue to wonder what he has wondered since Joe Girardi was shown the door in favor of Aaron Boone, which is why?
No matter how bad the play on the field is, the participatory imbecility on display in the stands last night in the Stadium is the type of behavior for which I have zero tolerance. Were I the person who owned the Yankees, I would have my folks scour every piece of video footage from last night's debacle and every person positively identified as someone who threw something on the field would be banned from the Stadium, immediately and forever.
