A.J. Burnett has had worse outings than the one he had Monday, but few of them have seemed to bother the right-hander as much as the 4-3 loss to the Orioles did.

Burnett gave up four runs on seven hits and four walks in seven innings, limiting Baltimore to single runs in four different innings. Unfortunately, two of those innings came immediately after the Yankees had tied the game, shifting the momentum—and the lead—back to Baltimore.

"You want to throw up a zero no matter what, but especially when we score," Burnett said. "I wasn't able to do that."
