The Yankees snapped their ugly six-game losing streak with a 14-1 blowout win over the best team in baseball yesterday afternoon. That was a game everyone needed. That sort of win is an anomaly though, especially against a club like the Royals. It’ll never be the norm.
The good news is a win like that can be major confidence booster. Hopefully it’ll springboard the club towards another extended stretch of winning. The 2015 Yankees seem to be pretty streaky — they started terribly, got crazy hot, then went cold in an instant — and it’s time for another round of winning.
