Yankees are 3-6 since and have scored three runs or fewer in every loss (plus one win). The slump in the last week occurs at an inopportune time as the Red Sox have surged to a 4 1/2-game lead, thanks to their eight game winning streak and longest of the season.
New York returns home after going 0-for-9 with runners in scoring position and stranding 11 runners Thursday in a 4-0 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. Aaron Judge had one of New York's six hits but also recorded two of their 10 strikeouts. Since the All-Star break, he is 15-for-87 with 40 strikeouts, including 27 straight games with at least one. "We're just in a rough patch," Judge said. Meanwhile, the Red Sox are batting .299 during their winning streak, which continued with Wednesday's 8-2 victory at Tampa Bay.
