Those 8th inning Chapman stat lines completely kill the idea that he was gassed in the 8th. The reason he was hit was because the 14th straight fastball he threw was hit because everyone in the park knew he was going to throw a fastball.

Chapman is a diva. Yankees are going to regret that contract. I hated giving up Torres for him. But, we won and that's all that matters

I thought more should have been made of Maddon's decision to pinch run for Schwarber. What a stratagem!

Almora's aggressive move to second on Bryant's deep fly and the subsequent IBB to Rizzo set the table for the whole inning...no way the "babe" makes that advance.
