ARod.
Not Rivera's fault.
Posada, sometimes, can't catch.
Learn to block the plate.
I think the passed ball, wild pitch rules need some work. As it is now, if the ball hits the dirt, it's a wild pitch. But, jesus. If you're Posada and you call for a pitch that often breaks low and hits the dirt, why do you stay in your crouch when it does so? You have to get down and keep the damn ball in front of you. This happens way too often with him. Twice last night. The first, put a runner on that scored after he struck out. The second could have cost us the game.
I thought Nathan did a great job against us. They stretched him with three innings, but I can't say I blame them. He was cruising before that point.
Great game, though.
