The Yankees arrived in Miami with momentum, having won four of their last five games. However, they faced a historic sweep by the Marlins, pushing them to third in the AL East. Yankees catcher Ben Rice emphasized the need for urgency among teammates after the loss. He urged the team to focus on winning games and syncing pitching and hitting as they progress deeper into the playoff race. The team, despite the return of Aaron Judge, needed more than one player's presence to address the underlying issues.
I wouldn't say there's concern, but I would say, I think a little sense of urgency would be good for us going forward. Just to continue to do what we can to win ballgames. And that's gonna do all the little things. It's gonna be, hopefully, we sync up pitching and hitting. That's it.
No, I wouldn't say that we lack a sense of urgency. But I would say, as we continue to move deeper into the season here, in this playoff race, we're gonna have to pick it up eventually.
