The Yankees lost for the 15th time in 19 games on Saturday when they were beaten by the Toronto BlueJays.
Since the All-Star break, the Yankees have a 9-20 record. Their lead over Toronto is down to seven games after they held a 1512 game bulge.
The New York manager took it to another level when he looked at his team's location Saturday.
We have to improve. He hit the table that held his mic. It is in front of us. We can fix it.
The Yankees have lost six series in a row for the first time in 20 years. Toronto will play four games on Sunday.
Judge said the Yankees were not happy about it. You're not happy if you lose a game or two. The next game is going to be67531675316753167531675316753167531675316753167531675316753167531675316753167531
We're the New York Yankees, so we have to pick ourselves up. We have to show them that.
The Blue Jays scored four times in the fifth. Alejandro Kirk capped the burst with a two-run double that Andrew Benintendi couldn't catch.
Cole said that they need to play crisp. We started out great.
Cole was booed by the fans and television cameras picked up the right-handed pitcher yelling and punching the bottom of the bench.
It's there and we can run away from it. The guys are in there to do it. We have to do it It is difficult to win if we do not score.
Bradley hit a two-run double down the left-field line, the ball bouncing off the wall and past Benintendi when he tried to field it. Santiago Espinal got Toronto's first hit with a double two pitches after missing a close two strike pitch.
Raimel Tapia reached on an infield hit when Isiah Kiner-Falefa threw the ball to Cole, who slipped and fell to the ground. Cole's mistake allowed Guerrero to beat the throw and the original call was overturned.
Kirk hit a double to left-center to make it a four-run game. The center fielder Estevan Florial threw out the runner at the plate to prevent a third run from scoring after Andrew Benintendi tried a diving catch and the ball got away from him.
The Blue Jays have won four in a row. Toronto has a 13-6 record in the Bronx.
The Yankees had nine hits, but went 1-for-8 with runners in scoring position, and Gleyber Torres hit a solo home run in the eighth. In its last 11 games, New York has scored 21 runs.
We are in first place. The rest of the way, we can write the script. If we play our game, nobody else can stop us.
Cole allowed two base runners through the first four and was aided by defensive plays from Judge and Oswaldo.
Judge crashed into the fence trying to catch Bo Bichette's double in the 2nd. After his head hit the padding along the side wall, he dove face first into the tarp to catch Bradley's popup.
White gave up one run and seven hits. The win was given to Adam Cimber and the first save was given to YimiGarcia.
