I was as peeved as anybody about the way the Yankee game ended Saturday night -- clearly Mark Teixeira was safe, although the umpire didn't see it that way. However, CC Sabathia also needs to be the CC of old; your ace can't be giving up five runs in a start.Anyhow, I just wanted to weigh in on the hissy fit Joel Sherman had in the post-game presser.
