The Yankees were finally eliminated from AL wild-card contention Sunday when they fell to the Diamondbacks, 7-1, in The Bronx.
What has been apparent for over a month is now official: The Yankees will be sitting out the playoffs.
It was a fittingly miserable Sunday afternoon in The Bronx, with rain and wind picking up throughout the game in front of a sparse crowd. And in an all-too-familiar trend, the Yankees offense was hardly heard from, mustering just six hits — a handful of them wind-aided.Though the Yankees have played better baseball in September to keep themselves mathematically alive for a playoff spot until Sunday, their road to elimination began well before that.
Since then, they have gone 42-52, with a nine-game losing streak in August serving as the beginning of the end of their season.
