Bad luck and bad play: the 1913 Yankees’ long and dumb losing streak

Last week, the Yankees had an 11-game winning streak come to an end. There’s still a long way to go in the season, but all those wins went a long way to helping the team bank some early victories for the playoff race. While it came up a little short of the 13-gamer they went on last year, it is still just one of 18 streaks at least that long in Yankees history. Despite getting one in each of the last two seasons, they don’t usually come around that often.

Luckily for the Yankees, losing streaks of that length come around even less frequently.
