NY Daily News: Mariners rough up Joba Chamberlain as Yankees get ruled in Seattle

SEATTLE - Joba Chamberlain pitched only three innings against the Mariners Sunday, but it had nothing to do with any rules. Seattle roughed him up for seven runs in the first two frames, and the Yankees suffered a 7-1 loss, failing to clinch a playoff berth after the Rangers’ loss earlier in the day put the Bombers a win away from punching their ticket to October. Chamberlain called his outing “embarrassing,” but seemed delusional when breaking down what went wrong for him during his brief performance. “It was all working, surprisingly,” Chamberlain said. “You take away two pitches, maybe it’s one or two runs.” I was guardedly optimistic after Chamberlain’s last start, but now I am dreading the though of him pitching in the postseason. Hopefully Andy Pettitte pitches well tonight, because the starting pitching after C.C. is a major question mark.
