They won 2 games by hitting in 4 innings out of 37.

We will not win another World Series as long as Dusty is the manager.

Came away 2-2, which isn't awful, but damnit it 4-0 wasn't a layup away.

Dusty's 60 years of awful fingerprints are all over both those losses.

Can't wait to hear Toothpick's reasoning.

There is a reason that Dusty has not won anything of note ever even though he has had some excellent teams

He


SUCKS

Predictable outcome when you strand the bases loaded against this team.

Split isn't bad at all but this should have been a sweep.

Fire dusty basket into the sun. Don't let him make it to Citi Field

We deserve that loss for pitching to him.

There's no reason to. AT ALL

Espada can't be at the helm quick enough.

This team is good in spite of Dusty.
This team is not great because of Dusty.

I would have taken a split before the series but knowing now how we lost two….a bit frustrating.
plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose

Yep. Not IBB'ing Judge doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Set up the force out at any base....

And we left a gazillion on base to give them a chance.

WTF Dusty?! Jesus there's a bag open and you pitch to Judge? So we can leave Rizzo in the on deck circle? GTFO here man. Can't believe how awful of a manager he is

So we walk old man Matt carpenter but pitch to the favorite for MVP. I mean I dont see any flaws in that logic

2 things I know for certain:

The Yankees are not 8 wins better than us and Dusty Baker is an old fool

I slightly disagree. I think this team is good because of Dusty. This team is not great because of Dusty.

A split against the yankees in NY would ordinarily be a good thing. Not this time. Thursday, Pressley melts down. Today, Dusty's got is head where the sun doesn't shine. Just pitiful.

A layup??

It was more like Jackie Moon trying to reject his own team to avoid having to give away free corn dogs.

We will sweep their ass in October, umpire run diff was 4+ they might get 2+ in playoffs

Also one fastball the hits Judge or Gian********** every game

It sucks losing games 1 and 4 the way we did but there are so many positives to take from this series and between the 2 New York series overall. A playoff series between these 2 are going to be an absolute war

Great day at the ballpark in spite of our geriatric manager.

If you ever get the chance, make a game here. No problems with the fans, either.

Remember last year when the Yankees went 4-2 against us but everybody only remembers the two Altuve homeruns and Yankees fans left both series feeling dejected?

That's how this 2-2 split feels. We better win 2/3 against them in MMP

Dusty would find a way to screw it up.

I made the trip in 2019 to see them play (not against us but just a random game). I absolutely love that stadium and the surrounding area

Dusty would be a great bench coach but he's no strategician. Wish he and Espada would swap roles.

Stop ***** we skull ****ed these carpet baggers for 35 of 37 innings and showed how soft they are without the protection of MLB. It's also clear we figured out a way to fix the balls they are using, they were able to slip two extra in for the judge at bats but OpSec will be much higher when we sweep them in the playoffs

I could argue that a lot of us already knew the NY teams were pretty overrated/lucky this season (Yankees haven't played many good teams and lead the league with 10 walkoff wins and 22 comeback wins).

If anything, this series raises a lot of concerns about the back end of the bullpen, and most importantly, the absolute imbecile we have managing the club

The problem with this line of thought is the score only matters in the 9+th inning, and we sucked in one game and got bent over and pantsed by our own manager in another.
