Joe G . made all the wrong moves in this game, Rivera should have never brought in when game was tied, his #'s are poor in these situations, & no way should a pinch runner been put in. Joe needs to get his head out of his ass! Just maybe the Yanks made the wrong choice of manager, Donny baseball where are you???
Tie game in the ninth inning, you bring your closer in the game.
There is no save situation . You bring Rivera in regardless of what
his numbers are in non save situations especially since he had not
pitched in a couple of days. Imagine if he put in Veres or Marte in that situation and they let up the runs. Everyone would be killing Girardi saying
"WTF is he doing not putting his best pitcher in the game".
No way should a pinch runner been put in??? Another no brainer.
He steals second , he scores on Jeter's hit. Can't blame Joe for that either. The catcher was throwing out runners at a 16% clip. Christian should have been running much earlier in the count.
