The Yankees followed up their blunder of an opening loss with a dud version, losing despite giving up just two runs because they got shutout in the process. Now they’ll hope to salvage the series finale and get on their way to a different field where they can hopefully stop tripping over their own feet as much.
While we wait for the finale to kick off, let’s run through what we’ve got in store. Sam starts us off with the Rivalry Roundup, which unfortunately didn’t help them out, and then Kevin has a walk-off win to cover in the 2000 Diary. Matt runs through the trade deadline action that the rest of the American League outside of the East went through, and after the game John has the weekly social media spotlight.
