“The players are like sick animals” NYY coach, even said this…Recently, 7G team batting average of 0.181 is the last

Maybe this is not the answer.

The New York Yankees have lost the most in two years. The Yankees lost 1-8 in a home game against the Boston Red Sox held at Yankee Stadium on the 20th (Korean time). Since the match against the Miami Marlins on the 13th, they have lost 7 games, suffering the most consecutive losses since September 5-11, 2021.

Ace Gerrit Cole, who is likely to win the AL Cy Young Award this year, collapsed miserably. He took the loss by allowing 6 runs while allowing 7 hits and 1 walk in 4 innings.

After blocking the first inning with 12 balls, Cole gave up a left-handed hit to leader Adam Duvall and a heavy hit to Jaren Duran in the second inning. Then, Conor Wong was induced with a ground ball to catch the third base runner at home, but he was knocked out with a powerful blow from Luis Urias, the next batter with first base loaded.

He threw the 91 mph cutter to the outside low well, but Urias’s bat caught it properly and it ended up being a grand slam that went over the middle left. In fact, it was the moment when the Yankees handed over the game.

In the 6th inning, Cole also got Reyes, the lead, on base with a heavy hit, and then was beaten by Wong with a two-run four in the middle, widening the score to 0-6. Wong threw a powerful 98 mph fastball on the 8th pitch on a full count, but it hit the middle and led to an arch with a distance of 379 feet.

When the ace falters, the batters have to give energy in the air and defense, but the Yankees batters have remained silent. On this day, he only got two hits against three pitchers, including Boston starter Cutter Crawford. At least, Aaron Judge hit a home run and barely escaped the loss.안전놀이터

In the bottom of the 6th inning, where the score was 0-6, Judge hit Crawford’s first pitch with a high 92 mph fastball and crossed the middle wall. He hit the cannon two days in a row and recorded it as his 24th home run of the season. This is the fifth arch since the 29th of last month after returning from a toe injury. But that was all there was to the Yankees offense.

“I know that’s a very boring answer,” Boone said after the game, “but we tried to win today and went into the game with the expectation that today is a winning day. “The position speaks for itself. Our players are like sick animals in a lot of ways.”

The lethargy of others is at a serious level. During the seven-game losing streak, the Yankees’ lineup averaged 2.14 runs per game with a team batting average of .181 (39 hits in 216 at-bats). During the same period, both divisions are in the bottom of 30 teams.

USA Today said, ‘The sincere, pure hope surrounding the Yankees these days exists in two forms. One is whether Aaron Judge comes to bat, and the other is whether Gerrit Cole is on the mound,’ he said.

The Yankees, the lowest in the Eastern Division of the American League (AL), recorded 60 wins and 63 losses. Against Boston, they lost six in a row.

The last time the Yankees marked a losing season was in 1992, and 1990 was the most recent instance of last place in the division.
