Facts are facts: Andrew Haney was AWESOME last night. A Quality Start for a fly ball pitcher at the New Yankee Stadium to sweep a rival? Incredible.

I have to admit, with the Red Sox struggling, I thought ‘oh boy…this could get ugly.’ Kudos on a job well done and proving the irrational fan wrong.

The Offense used a big second inning, and the aforementioned great pitching for a 5-2 win and a sweep of the 3 game set against Boston. I would have told you this was impossible on July 4th.

The Yankees just keep finding a way, with all the injuries and Covid-19 scares and protocols, the turnaround has been nice. Our Fearless Leader has pushed the right buttona at the right times, lately.

My only gripe: Why use Chapman in the 9th? Coming off the IL, he can’t be at full strength. I mean, he pitched like it, gamely throwing 20 pitches and giving up a home run to Hunter Renfroe.

I get it, Boone when with his gut on that decision, but I just questioned it. A win is a win, they swept Boston, so I’ll take it and be happy.

The Yanks conclude this homestand with the first of 4 games against Minnesota, whom they should beat, hopefully.

Bavk tomorrow with a recap and finally some Giants thoughts.
