This is where the Yankees’ injury problems really hurt them
Giancarlo Stanton, who finished 0-for-4, reacts after one of his two strikeouts Monday in the Yankees' 6-2 loss to the White Sox.Back home after a late night on the road, facing a quality pitcher backed by athletic defenders, the Yankees couldn’t fight this feeling anymore: They really missed their injured guys.
The Yankees played tired and sloppy in losing to the lousy White Sox on Monday night, 6-2 at Yankee Stadium, and therefore falling 6 ¹/\u2082 games — six in the loss column — behind the dormant Red Sox in the AL East. When you tally as many hits as errors, three of each in this contest, you know you haven’t clocked much of a work shift.
