All he needed was a moderate fly ball to center or right which any major leaguer should be able to do on demand. Just like they should be able to hit a ground ball to the proper side to move a runner over on demand.

Not much you can say about that loss. This team is so frustrating. Leiter continued the pattern of being the first pitcher out of the pen then giving up a run.
Volpe is just terrible in every form. Paul O'Neill clearly pointed out why Volpe can't hit. Opening up his hip big time while the pitch is on the way then dragging the bat through the zone. The Yankees have 2 batting coaches and they can't fix this? smh And as much as Yankees players, including Volpe, stare into an IPad during the game, they/he can't see this?

Did you hear Coney and O’Neill breakdown Williams?
Cone: MORE FASTBALLS!
O’Neill: when he gets to throwing the change-up pitch after pitch, it’s easy for the batter to spit on it
Yeah, why he hell can't Boone and the coaches address these things? That's why this team struggles. No fundamentals or common sense at all.
He would have gotten rid of half this team months ago and Boone years ago. He wanted to win, just like us Yankees fans. Yankees have a losing record against the AL East with only a winning record against the Rays.
As soon as I saw the lineup I almost decided to not watch the game. Wish I hadn't watched it. I watched it in it's entirety. I must be a glutton for punishment. The Yankees are struggling mightily. They are falling further and further behind the other teams. So Boone didn't have Rice or Jazz in the lineup because the Bosox are throwing a left hander. WTF? Boone and his damn analytics. These guys are pros being paid millions of dollars. You need your best 9 players on the field every day the rest of the season. **** these damn analytics. They are complete BS. And maybe they will start hitting pitchers if they are actually allowed to face them. Have the hitting coaches work wiht them every day. Just put your best 9 ON THE FIELD. No one is really hitting for average anymore anyway. Sick of this BS. And get Stanton out of the outfield!!! It's a disaster.
