It was the second time around against the meat of the order that Chase Whitley got tagged. Not destroyed, but had for 3 runs.
David Huff relieved him and then Mother Nature relieved herself. The rain came and didn’t leave and in the end, the Yanks lost 3-1 in 5 innings.
Somehow, it was a fitting way to go into the All Star Break. They are 47-47.

I went to this game.
Since I've kind of given up on the season, the lead-off homer, the throngs pressing against the wall to see Jeter warming up, and my first trip to Camden Yards were enough for me. Chase W. looked like Nothing Special in the flesh. My only real disappointment is that the rain washed out any chance of seeing Delin Betances pitch. Oh well, I assume there will be many future opportunities for that.
