Such a strange game for sure. Yankees look like they can't hit for the first five innings. Pure frustration and angst for a longtime Yankee fan. Down 1-0. Mets change pitchers in the sixth inning because they're worried about accumulated innings on a Cy Young type arm (Matt Harvey), coming back this season from elbow surgery. YANKEES EXPLODE!! A big 2-run double (Beltran) and a couple 3-run homers. (Ackley and Bird) To be fair, there were a few defensive screwups in the sixth inning that didn't help the Mets bullpen. Final score, 11-2.
So many games start out in one teams favor and even appear to be well under control by that team. Then suddenly things turn around late in the game. It's so important when things don't seem to be going your way, to limit the bad and just stay close. One could probably apply that general principle to many things in life.
