The Yankees’ offensive woes have been no secret this season. Despite a gaggle of big bats including Judge and Stanton, the Yankees have been unable to produce runs. The team entered Tuesday’s game in a four game slump after getting swept by the Tigers in Detroit. This season the team is scoring 3.7 runs per game making them the fourth worst in the MLB. To put it simply, the Yankees simply cannot hit.
Things weren’t much different against the Rays Tuesday. The team was only able to produce 3 runs in 9 innings and left runners on base 9 out of 10 opportunities.
