tex - had his chance to earn his pinstipes with a big hit against pepelbon in the 10th and give his team some life , some hope - and he flushed it down the toilet bowl - at least a-rod hit in april and may
But they did enough to have a 2 run lead in the 9th, reguardless how many men were left on base BY THE ENTIRE TEAM.

Yeah you are right, he has 4 rings and blown saves happen. In fact, he should have a fifth ring, but he blew one there too.

He struck out on a bad pitch against a very good pitcher, but there were other guys that could have made a difference too. They are all making big buck and they should all be accountable.

Yeah he would have earned his pinstripes with a hit there.
People still say A-Rod hasn't earned his stripes yet.

If I was you, I would be a little more concerened with the pitching at this point, then the hitting.
