can't fault the effort
After Kevin Gausman, who could not get anything together on this cold night, had been truly shredded—six runs (five earned) on four hits (two homers) and two walks in just an inning-and-a-third—I decided to pursue other interests with my evening, and thus largely missed what I later learned to be a fairly spirited Blue Jays comeback that fell just short. Notably, Vladdy got one, and was booed so hard, as he is truly despised in Yankee Stadium, and in a way he has deliberately brought upon himself by loudly proclaiming that he would never play for New York. This is all of course in the fine tradition of Ken Griffey Jr. ("If the Yankees were the last team . . . if they were the only team that gave me a contract, I'd retire. You don't believe me? You don't know me") and absolutely must be respected as such, but it does keep you from feeling too bad about any of it.
