Anthony Volpe's error, more listless at-bats push Yankees to 6th straight loss

Jazz Chisholm Jr. homered in the second inning to end New York's 30-inning scoreless streak, but an error in the eighth inning gave Los Angeles a tiebreaking run, and the Angels beat the Yankees 3-2 Wednesday night, handing New York its sixth straight loss.

Mike Trout and Taylor Ward opened the eighth by drawing walks off Fernando Cruz (1-3), and Luis Rengifo walked on four pitches to load the bases. Jo Adell hit a 105.9-mph grounder to New York shortstop Anthony Volpe, who bobbled the ball and threw wide of second, allowing Trout to score.

The Yankees lost for the eighth time in 18 games, and their losing streak is the longest since they lost nine straight from Aug.
