BOSTON — Alan Cockrell stood behind the cage during early batting practice at Fenway Park on Friday, still searching for answers for a Yankees offense that has gotten off to an ugly start.
But if you’re hoping for the team’s first-year hitting coach to make some drastic changes to reverse the trend, you’ll be disappointed.
Still, he acknowledged the first 20 games have taken a toll on him and the lineup.
“It weighs on you mentally,” Cockrell said prior to another punchless effort by the offense in a 4-2 loss to the Red Sox.
