After getting beaten 5-3 on Sunday and 5-4 on Monday by the Tigers the Yankees turn to starting pitcher A.J. Burnett with their season on the line, down 2-1 in the best of five ALDS, on Tuesday night.
Burnett obviously has not had a good season finishing with an 11-11 record and a 5.15 ERA over 33 games. He is 1-2 with a 5.67 ERA during the postseason in his career.
The Tigers will go with local product Rick Porcello who went 14-9 with a 4.75 ERA in 31 starts this season.
old, overrated, overpaid, overdone
oh well there goes the championship. Maybe after the night is over Geraldi and Burnett will have a new place to hang their hats next season. Geraldi is in denial when he says Sabathia pitched well, I don't know maybe I watching a different game.
I tried to tell people a few months ago… AJ will get a start in the playoffs and pitch well… and they all said Garcia this Garcia that… Burnett impressed….I have faith in my team… Seems many Yankee fans don't….
Finally something goes our way.
Great game in every way.
