The Yankees are now officially out of postseason contention, a foregone conclusion for a team that's wrapping up a disastrous season.
It’s fitting the loss that clinched the Yankees’ fate was sloppy on a miserable day in the Bronx, another unwatchable performance with flashes of multiple season-long flaws.
Gleyber Torres nearly drove in a run in the third off Gallen, but his single bounced off second base umpire Clint Vondrak, forcing DJ LeMahieu to stay at third base on the dead ball. Austin Wells grounded out to end the inning and strand the bases loaded a few pitches later.The offense finished 2-for-10 with runners in scoring position, leaving 11 runners on base in the loss, the latest example of a team that’s incapable of stringing hits together.
Carlos Rodón showed more signs of progress amid a resurgent September, but his five runs allowed created an insurmountable deficit, another instance where a Yankees’ starter dug the offense into a hole that was far too deep to climb out of. It’s a week of games that mean a lot to youngsters who are competing for playing time, veterans trying to finish the year on a high note, a manager that’s on the hot seat and an organization that hasn’t had a losing record since 1992. The Yankees must win at least four of their final seven games to clear the .500 threshold and keep that streak alive.
