Yankees' Jazz Chisholm Problem Doesn't Need to be Bigger Than it Is

Yahoo Sports

It doesn’t take long for a problem in New York City to be a big one, especially when it involves a player like Jazz Chisholm Jr. , who some fans don’t love because of his swagger. I love him and think he’s great for New York, but I’m not everyone.

Letting a hitter beat out a routine ground ball to second is the kind of time that draws negative attention, but Chisholm didn’t try to dance around it afterward. He owned it. While Chisholm wasn’t happy about the play, if anything, it sounded like a guy who understands how he needs to get better.

“We don’t think the game is over until the last out, until the umpire calls the last out or the last strike,” Chisholm said. “So for us, we always go out there battling until the last minute. ” The Miami Marlins took advantage of a guy who usually plays hard and as a result, it became the talk of the town shortly after.

“We all know how I play baseball, how we play baseball,” Chisholm said. “The guy caught me with my head down. He did a good play.

I do it to other teams all the time. I feel like, someone caught me – it’s no big deal to me. If I was him, I would do it, too.
