Aaron Boone, Luis Severino to Blame for Yankees' Embarrassing Game 3 Meltdown

After tying the series with a win in Game 2, being back home with their ace on the mound should have been the New York Yankees' recipe for a lead in the American League Division Series.

Turns out, it was a recipe for a 16-1 rout at the hands of the Boston Red Sox.

Game 3 got away from the Yankees quickly no thanks to Luis Severino. It was clear from the start that the right-hander didn't have his best stuff, and he ended up charged with six runs in three-plus innings.
