I don't agree with this move. We've been burned twice this year because Terry hasn't let Foulke work out of his own jams. Foulke is a finisher. He is toughest with men on base.
He should not have played at all. Wily Mo has been swinging a potent bat and playing well in the field. Terry just shortened his lineup tonight, by putting an automatic out in the 8th hole.
I guess Joe hands him the ball and says: "Just keep him in the park." Good work if you can get it. If that is the attitude of the Yanks and their fans, why not just issue the IBB every time he bats.
I wasn't on the game thread last night, but I read it when I came home. It was pretty funny to see the Yankee fans desert the thread half way through the game like rats from a sinking ship.
