Buck Martinez explains his comments on the Yankees
During the final stretch of the season, Martinez stated during a broadcast that the Yankees are not a good team due to their wild pitches, poor base running and overall defense.
"The Yankees, they're not a good team. I don't care what their record is. They have a lot of wild pitches. They make a lot of mistakes in the field. They don't run the bases very well." - Blue Jays commentator Buck Martinez calls down the thunder
During an interview ahead of game 3, Martinez explained himself but stood by his comments stating that the Yankees clearly are not a good defensive team and struggle when running the bases which was on full display in games 1 and 2.
Buck Martinez says if he really thinks the Yankees aren't a good team, tells us what Aaron Boone said to him when they met in Toronto, talks Vlad, Bo, Trey, more. Great interview!
Martinez also spoke on how Vladimir Guerrero Jr is not a fan of the Yankees and has been playing great baseball this series even in game 3's loss where he hit another homerun.
Vlad Jr. is no fan of the Yankees as he showed again already tonight. Buck Martinez has many great thoughts on Vlad here. Buck analyzes Jays-Yanks in full cast.
However, the Yankees did look a lot better in game 3 and it was the Blue Jays that made a lot of costly errors but that does nto mean that Martinez was wrong.
