Things continue to go extremely poorly for the Yankees. They opened up a series against the MLB-best Braves on Monday night, and Atlanta looked like said best team. They cracked double digits against the Yankees, as the Bombers’ swoon continued at 5.5 games behind idle Toronto.
With the Yankees continuing to go in the wrong direction in the winning percentage column, let’s check in on how some of the AL competition did last night.
Miami Marlins (63-57) 5, Houston Astros (68-52) 1
The manner it happened was certainly embarrassing, but the Yankees losing a series to the Marlins is not completely unthinkable.
