Maybe Ben McAdoo's Play-Calling Was The Problem
Two things happened. First, the Giants did not look anything like themselves last night (for instance, they won). Second, head coach Ben McAdoo finally surrendered play-calling duties to offensive coordinator Mike Sullivan. He did so quietly, with most of his players not even aware of the fact until...

Didi Gregorius Keeps Getting Better
Corey Kluber was great against eight out of nine Yankees last night. To those eight hitters, over 3.2 innings, Kluber gave up one hit, and he struck out six.
