NEW YORK -- With the benefit of hindsight, New York Yankees first-year manager Aaron Boone admitted Friday that he left starting pitcher Luis Severino in Monday's Game 3 of the American League Division Series too long.
That decision and another similar one may have cost his team a chance at winning the series over the Boston Red Sox, Boone acknowledged.
"I probably got a little greedy," Boone said, referring specifically to letting Severino continue pitching in the fourth inning of Game 3 despite having run into trouble in the inning prior, when he gave up three runs.
