The Yankees would be hard pressed to find a game during their month-long slump that was more depressing and disappointing than last night’s ninth inning 4-3 loss to the Chicago White Sox.
For the second night a row, the team received superb efforts from their starting pitching, only to see a lead almost evaporate on Monday when Jordan Montgomery went seven strong. And then last night, Luis Severino looked like the ace he is fast becoming, with seven strong and twelve strikeouts, only to see the White Sox put the finishing touches on the Yankees bullpen.
