SO dispiriting. Granderson hacking at the first pitch against Rodney in the 8th...Nunez. Shit, there's just so much that went wrong. But mostly, it's on Sabathia. You know the Orioles will find a way to win tonight. Brutal outing for C.C. SO dispiriting. Granderson hacking at the first pitch against Rodney in the 8th…Nunez.
