... moving runners, hitting with runners in scoring position, pitching well, and playing surprisingly good defense (no errors in 17 consecutive games). However, yesterday's loss could be chalked up to poor execution in the 9th inning (in addition to being unable to hit Carl Pavano). In the top of the 9th, the Yankees had runners on first and third with no outs, the exact type of situation the team has been capitalizing on lately.
