On a magical Saturday, Ben Rice did something no Yankees rookie had ever done in smacking three home runs. A night later, the pixie dust was gone.
The Yankees lost another series in discouraging fashion by getting shut out by the Red Sox, 3-0, in front of 45,250 in The Bronx on Sunday night.Ben Rice’s unexpected magic can’t fix all of the Yankees’ glaring issuesThe nosedive of the Yankees — who have dropped 15 of 20 and are three games back of the Orioles in the AL East — began in Boston in mid-June, and they haven’t won a series since, going seven straight without a series victory.
For a second straight day, manager Aaron Boone left his flagging starting pitcher on the mound to face Rafael Devers, and for a second straight day the move backfired.After the Red Sox All-Star homered off Gerrit Cole with Cole’s final pitch Saturday, Devers took a seventh-inning, down-the-middle fastball from Luis Gil and reversed it narrowly over the left-field wall to break a scoreless tie.
The righty threw just 68 pitches in seven strong innings in which he allowed four hits and zero walks.Their best chance came in the seventh, when Juan Soto led off with a gapped double to right-center.
