I tip my cap to those who braved the cold temps to be at the game today. Brrr. Not my weather. Not the Yankees’ weather either, judging by the eighth inning when things went awry. Oh, Betances. His throw set the loss in motion, which was a shame since the big bad Astros starter, Dallas Keuchel, was no longer a factor in the game and not as invincible as he’s been in past match-ups.
I love that both Starlin and Didi made important contributions though. And Tanaka, who’d been shaky in Tampa, pitched better than I expected.
So the Astros won the opener. No biggie. The cool thing about the start of the season is that, from now on, there’s always tomorrow.
