Reeling Yankees will need short memory to recover from this

BOSTON — This?

This was one for the books. This was brutal, torturous, agonizing, atrocious. It was mind-numbing and gut-wrenching. It made an already miserable weekend positively wretched, woeful, dismal glum.

It was a game that can keep you up all night.

All week, really.

The Yankees were 58-0 when leading after eight innings heading into the ninth inning early Monday morning. They will wake up in Chicago 58-1 in that department, 68-42 on the year, losers of five in a row overall and four straight in Boston after this excruciating 5-4, 10-inning loss to the Red Sox.
