The Yankees lost 12-1 at Yankee Stadium as Garrett Crochet limited New York over seven shutout innings while the Yankees surrendered a seven-run ninth and heard boos at home. The defeat marked the eighth straight loss to Boston, leaving the Yankees 1-8 against the Red Sox this season and 4-15 against the top two AL East teams including a 3-7 mark vs. Toronto. Offense produced only five runs across three games. Giancarlo Stanton called the situation unacceptable, and Aaron Judge expressed anger and urged teammates to improve despite his DH limitation from an elbow issue.
The Yankees' troublesome struggles against the Red Sox this season continued Saturday in an ugly 12-1 loss at Yankee Stadium that began with Cy Young candidate Garrett Crochet shutting them down over seven innings and ended with them hearing boos from the home crowd during a disastrous seven-run ninth inning. It was the Yankees' eighth straight defeat at the hands of their rivals this season. Overall, the Yankees are 1-8 against Boston this season.
Add their 3-7 record against the first-place Toronto Blue Jays and the Yankees are 4-15 against the top two teams in the American League East. "It's not ideal," Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton said. "It's unacceptable. We all know that." The Yankees returned to the Bronx for this four-game series on a five-game winning streak, having won seven of their previous eight games against the Minnesota Twins, St. Louis Cardinals and Tampa Bay Rays, a trio of foes that won't partake in October baseball this season.
