It's not possible or impossible, they really can comeback in this series. You can't tell me the Yankees can't go back to New York. The pitching match-ups favor the Yankees massively. Though the question is: Will the Yankee bats show some heart ?
Let's be real here -- the Yankees are better than the Tigers. The Yankees could've been easily up 3-0 in this series. Easily. The Tigers gave this team every chance to comeback in this series; they gave them every chance to sweep them !
The Yankees are giving up. They're given an opportunity to go to the World Series and they're showing no life.
People want talk about us Yankee fans being spoiled -- how about the players ? They are fours wins away from a World Series, they're making $billions, and the Yankees are playing as if they're in a regular season slump.
Can you play like you're in the American League Championship Series, please !?
Yankees should be abusing the Tigers. After coming off a series with the Baltimore Orioles who were ten times as tough and better than the Tigers, and the Yankees are playing like they're team waiting to go home.
And don't tell me the Yankees are tired. If they're too tired to play in the ALCS; when they barely beat the Orioles, then they shouldn't be playing baseball. If four wins to the World Series doesn't pump you up, I don't know what does.
This has been the strangest ALCS, I've ever seen the Yankees play. With all that has happened and how quickly this opportunity is going away, it's sad and a shame. Yankees are getting great pitching; something the mid 2000's Yankees wish they had, and they're throwing it all away.
One Positive About The Yankees: Though they look they're giving up, all season long, they've showed fight. Even in the ninth inning of this series (which were the only runs they've scored).
Yankees fought their asses off to not play in that one-game wild card, and won the A.L East. They went five games with the Orioles and won. Now they're going against a 88-win team and are down 0-3 in the series, staring at a sweep.
Show guts. Go for it. Look what the San Francisco Giants did at Cincinnati -- Giants were down 0-2 in the NLDS and swept the Reds in their own home in three games. That's guts. That's showing pride. All Yankees have to do is win two games in Detroit. And I'm making it sound easy, because it should be easy for them if they show pride.
Yankees are throwing C.C Sabathia and Andy Pettitte in these next two games in Detroit ... Need I say more ?
