KANSAS CITY - THE YANKEES STREAKED UNTIL THEY COULD STREAK NO MORE,
WITH A PLETHORA OF ONE-GAME PLAYOFF SPOTS ON THE LINE, THE YANKEES COULDN'T PUT TOGETHER A WIN IN GAME NO. 162, A 4-3 DEFEAT TO THE ROYALS.
"IT'S BITTER, NO DOUBT," SAID MANAGER JOE GIRARDI. "IT'S A BUMMER."
THE LOST LEFT NEW YORK AND THE BLUE JAYS BOTH AT 86-76, A SINGLE GAME BEHIND DIVISION CHAMP BOSTON. THE ANGELS, MARINERS AND WHITE SOX ALL FINISHED IN THE WILD CARD LEAD AT 87-75, WITH THE YANKEES AND TORONTO A GAME SHORT THERE ALSO.
THE YANKEES' STREAKY SEPTEMBER WENT LIKE THIS:
LOSE 2

PLAYOFF UPDATE-2013
THE YANKEES CONTINUE TO DO WHAT THEY DO BEST: BASH THE BALL OUT OF THE PARK.
UNFORTUNATELY, NEW YORK'S PITCHING STAFF CONTINUES TO SHOW OFF ITS HOTTEST TRAIT: GIVING UP RUNS - AND PLENTY OF THEM.
WITH JUST A HANDFUL OF GAMES REMAING, THE YANKEES CLING TO POSTSEASON THOUGHTS. AT 82-75, NEW YORK IS THREE GAMES BEHIND IN ITS OWN DIVISION - AS WELL AS BEING A TRIO OF GAMES BEHIND FOR THE LONE WILD CARD SPOT..
THE TWINS, WHITE SOX, BLUE JAYS AND BOSTON ARE ALL TIED AT 85-72 FOR WILD CARD HONORS.

MARINERS ON EMPTY?
COMEBACK SPOILED; DAMAGE MAY BE LIFE-THREATENING
http://www.theultimateshow2011.blogspot.com/
SEATTLE - TIME AND AGAIN THE MARINERS ROCKED SOLO HOMERS TO FINALLY CATCH UP TO BOSTON IN GAME FOUR OF THE ALCS.
THE LAST DINGER WAS SPOILED AS A FIELDING MISCUE BY LEFT-FIELDER MARCO NAVARRO ALLOWED BOSTON TO ESCAPE WITH A 7-6 WIN IN 11 INNINGS.
THE SERIES IS TIED AT 2 GAMES APIECE. GAME 5 IS WEDNESDAY AT 7:0S P.M. AT SAFECO FIELD.
BOSTON ERUPTED FOR FOUR FIRST-INNING RUNS AGAINST SEATTLE STARTER TOMMY WALBECK.
"WE RAN ON FUMES THE ENTIRE GAME," SAID WALBECK. "I PUT US IN THAT EARLY HOLE, OTHERWISE I THINK WE PULL IT OUT."
RAY ALMONTE HOMERED IN THE FIFTH TO MAKE IT 4-2 BUT BOSTON'S DIEGO HERRERA FOLLOWED SUIT IN THE TOP OF THE SIXTH TO PUSH THE SOX AHEAD 5-2 BEFORE AARON CONNER'S BLAST IN THE BOTTOM OF THE FRAME MADE IT 5-3.
SOLO SHOTS BY MAURICE McDONOUGH AND NAVARRO IN THE SEVENTH AND EIGHTH INNINGS MADE IT 5-5.
IN THE NINTH, WILTON SANTIAGO, PINCH-HITTING FOR HERRERA, WALLOPED A DRIVE TO DEEP LEFT TO RETURN THE LEAD BACK TO BOSTON, 6-5.
BUT EARL DECLAN GREETED RELIEVER DeWAYNE SCHAFER WITH A ROCKET TO THE OPPOSITE FIELD IN LEFT TO MAKE IT 6-6.
CLOSER RODGER METZ, IN HIS SECOND INNING, WALKED TAYLOR LEACH WITH TWO-OUT IN THE 11TH. CHARLES BEATY GROUNDED A BALL PAST THIRD BASEMAN ALAMONTE AND AFTER NAVARRO OVER-RAN THE BALL, LEACH HAD SCORED AND BEATY HAD WHAT WAS SCORED A TRIPLE.
BRYANT McCALL EARNED HIS FIRST POSTSEASON SAVE WITH TWO INNINGS OF WORK
