Kei Igawa is core issue for Yankees
Some comments on the web site with regard to Igawa's performance.Problem: That was all there was to impressed with, because Igawa lost his effectiveness in the fifth inning. If this was the eighth, or even the seventh, it could be normal, late-game, understandable fatigue. But Igawa could not get out of the fifth and thus came up one out short of qualifying for the victory. Double, single, flyout, lineout, double, walk. At that point, Bonds came up again, with the bases loaded. When Igawa walked Bonds, Igawa's evening was over."It looked like he started throwing more so than pitching," Torre said. "He just couldn't keep the ball down. I was sorry to see it, because he had pitched so well to that point.""I was happy with the first four innings," Igawa said through an interpreter. "I didn't get the results today. I'll do better next time."Igawa will be Key Issue for the Yank's this season for a while.
