Sympathy for Teixeira

What do you do when your teammate pulls his hamstring in the ALCS, ensuring that if you make it to the World Series he won't be able to play?

Apparently, you decide that if he can't play in the World Series, none of you will. Outscored 8-0 after Teixeira's injury. Yikes. Still, if you have to lose a playoff series, much less painful to do it this way, a clean beating, than have certain victory ripped away like in 1995, 2001 and 2004.
