After 43 Years, Yankees and Dodgers Resume Their World Series Rivalry
I had it on the radio, sort of almost paying attention. I was tuned-into that 5th inning rally, but did not catch the errors. Yes, the Yanks killed themselves.
I have been a Yankee fan since the early 50’s and I cannot recall an inning in which they played worse baseball. As previously mentioned, the Yanks stars (Judge and Cole) committed bone-head plays and the supporting cast chipped in as well. Cole’s failure to cover first base on a grounder to the first baseman has to rank with Bill Buckner’s boot allowing the Mets to rally against the Red Sox in 1986 or Mickey Owen’s passed ball on a pitch that should have been a strike-out, but gave the Yankees the additional out they needed to go up 3 games to 1 in 1941. History finally rewarded the long-suffering Bums while the Yankees will have to live with the high-priced pitcher who forgot how to play his position.
