Yankees Highlights: The comeback falls short in Philly

The Yankees fell behind early in their series finale against the Phillies, and had an opportunity to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Unfortunately, a deep Luke Voit fly ball didn’t get far enough to escape the yard and New York fell, 5-4.

Winner of the Game

There were few bright spots in this game for the Yankees, but one of them had to be Gary Sanchez. The catcher has been stuck in a long rut to start the year, and every encouraging sign has been swallowed in another 0-for game right after, but he got a hold of one in the seventh inning off of Nick Pivetta.
