Not As Easy As 1-2-3

Kyle Farnsworth has pitched in 43 games for the Yankees so far this season. In none of those 43 games has he pitched more than one inning. In fact, in 38 of those 43 games, he has pitched exactly one inning.
In those 43 games, Farnsworth has allowed at least one base-runner during his appearance 88% of the time.
Further, to date, there have only been 5 times this season where Farnsworth has come into a game for the Yankees, pitched an inning, and retired the side in order. He did it once in April, once in May, two times in June, and once (so far) in July.
Anyone else having Lance McCullers flashbacks here?
You see RJ might not be coming back? I almost feel sad for the guy. NOT!!!

Marty Miller could fix Unit in 15 minutes.
Reminds me of John Tudor. Effective when healthy, but rarely healthy.

As compared to Mariano who has done it 6 times.
