HOUSTON—The Yankees’ hitters have no answer for the Astros’ pitchers.
“It’s tough to say,” said rightfielder Aaron Judge, who is 1–for–8 in the American League Championship Series.
“I’m at a loss for words right now,” said outfielder Matt Carpenter, who is 0-for-5 with five strikeouts.
“I think we're gonna go into this off day and kind of take a step back, take a breath and reflect on what we need to really work on and adjust to get going again,” said catcher Kyle Higashioka, who is 0–4 with four strikeouts.
Judge finished Game 2 hitting 1-for-4 with a run scored in the Yankees’ 3-2 loss.
