Well, the Yanks made it close, but they lost again.
The weather was nice. So that can't be an excuse.
There always seems to be an excuse... what will it be today?
Since beginning the season 3-0, the Yankees have gone 5-7. Which part of the Yankees' season is more telling to the team they are... the 3-0 start (3 games) or the 5-7 streak (12 games)?

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.
Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."

do the Dodgers go all-in?
did they sign Harper?
which team, Dodgers or Yankees, had the more expensive player payroll in 2024?
what excuse is there for flying the distress insignia when the team record is above water?
I would say there is no excuse today or any day really. speaking of today specifically, the biggest problem was the fragility of Carlos Rodon. he often pitches well. he has the ability to get outs. can anyone, I cannot, think of a pitcher who can look so good and so bad in the same outing?
I can think of plenty of pitchers who can be good in some outings and bad in others, that might describe almost all pitchers actually, and then there are some who can almost go back and forth in every outing
Rodon is different in the fact that he can look good to great in most of an outing, but also have one terrible inning…
This team is pretty awful. They’re going nowhere fast.
