The New York Yankees didn't say anything. New York played music over the speakers after games.
The Yankees lost to the Astros in the third game of the ALCS on Saturday, putting them in a big hole.
The Yankees were struggling to come up with words on how they could come back from a three game deficit against a team that has not lost in the playoffs so far.
"It's not ideal," Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo said. We just need to win. Tonight it sucks. It's going to be really bad. It is going to hurt. We need to find a way to win.
After losing the first two games of the series, New York came back to win the next two games and advance to the ALCS.
The Astros looked like the better baseball team in every aspect of Saturday's contest. The Astros' offense came through with four runs, three of which came from the bottom three hitters in the batting order.
Guys have faced elimination in their careers, according to Yankees outfielder Harrison Bader. You cannot get to the top without starting at the bottom. There are two games being played tomorrow and nine games being played tomorrow. It is just a matter of taking things one step at a time.
Only one team in MLB history has come back from a three-game deficit in a best-of-seven series. The Astros have not yet booked their World Series tickets.
"All the guys, especially guys who have been here, are just preaching to keep our foot on the gas," Verlander said. You don't know what can happen The playoffs are a strange thing. We've been playing good baseball, but we don't want to get too carried away. The theme is that. We need to come here tomorrow and try to win a game.
Jose Altuve said he won't pay attention to the series lead.
The mentality is to go out there and win. Nothing is done yet, it doesn't matter if we're up three or three nil. We know we are playing a good team, so we need to play our best game. One team is the winner of the series. We're going to try to win the game tomorrow.
The Yankees players were booed at various times during Saturday's game as fans expressed their disappointment. The Yankees fans left the stadium when the Astros scored three runs in the sixth to make it a five-run game.
Judge said that he understood their frustration. There is a big game coming up. We will do our thing even if we are down. We have to pick it up as a team and it's going to take their support. That is for certain.
If the Yankees can win Game 4 and make this a series, they will have a chance. They're hitting.128 in the ALCS, the second-lowest average through three games in LCS history, with Judge batting.156 with 14 strikeouts and three runs in the playoffs.
The last time the Yankees scored an earned run was in the eighth in the first game of the series. The Yankees will try to break the streak against Astros pitcher Lance McCullers Jr.
Heading into Sunday, New York hopes a positive mindset can help extend their season.
Judge told him to have fun. It's not possible to beat ourselves up about a single play. We need to stay focused throughout the game. We have to stay laser focused, even if they go up on us tomorrow or the next day.
