Last night, was it Phil Hughes, or did the Yankees simply run out of luck?

OK, let's go to the videotape - last night, top of the first: The lead-off batter flies to left. No problemo. Next guy, Dustin Ackley walks on seven pitches. Ouch.

But if Phil Phranchise finally puts together the career year, the season that vaults him into the top tier - where he was originally...
