As a long-time Dodger fan - I went to my first game at Dodger Stadium back in 1965 - I was really happy to see them win game 5 today at Yankee Stadium to close-out this year’s World Series. We can all agree that that fifth inning defensive display by the Yankees was horrible, but their overall defense throughout the series was really weak. It’s hard to understand, but their coaching staff has to take the brunt of the blame.
