This season, the Red Sox are the Yankees’ best team, and New York’s troubles continued on Saturday afternoon as they lost to Boston 12-1 at Yankee Stadium.
After the game, Giancarlo Stanton told reporters, “It’s not ideal.” It’s not acceptable. Everyone is aware of that.
The Yankees will want to prevent the four-game sweep on Sunday night, as they are 1-8 versus their foe this season.
The Yankees had the chance to extend their one-game lead over Boston in the American League Wild Card rankings going into the series after winning their last five games.
New York now trails the Red Sox by two games following three consecutive defeats.
I can only speak for myself when I say that we’re furious,” Aaron Judge told reporters. I don’t like our performance here at home, especially when it comes to your opponents.
Throughout the series, the Yankees’ defense, pitching, and offense have all suffered. Judge is aware that preventing a four-game whitewash depends on every member of the team doing well.
Everyone in this room needs to improve their game a bit. On Sunday, he urged, “Pick it up a notch and go out there and take care of business.” Regarding the hundred or so games we have played in the past, there is little we can do. All you can do is concentrate on what we can do right now.
