Tigers 4, Yankees 3: August ends with dud despite Anthony Volpe’s heroics

Another day, another loss that can only, at this point, be described as tough. The Yankees are back to four games under .500 at 65-69 after an extra-innings loss to the Tigers on a Thursday afternoon getaway day matinee. Yankees hitters had no answer for Matt Manning, unable to get anything going outside of a single late swing that netted them all three of their runs, and they threw away the game in the 10th. New York got the series win last night, but the club was unable to secure the sweep.

Offensive action was at a minimum throughout the early going.
