The Yankees might have hit their lowest point of the 2025 season and in their rivalry with the Red Sox in recent years on Saturday.
New York gave up seven runs in the ninth inning in its 12-1 loss to Boston, playing comically bad baseball in the final frame to allow the Red Sox to take the first three games of a pivotal four-game set. The win also gave the Red Sox an 8-1 advantage in the season series.
After a string of hits gave the Red Sox a 9-1 lead, the Yankees began to play fundamentally bad baseball.
