The New York Yankees entered the game tonight at Oakland Coliseum; the Yankees were looking to start a new winning streak. Yesterday the Yankees broke their 13 game winning streak with a one-run loss to the Athletics. Tonight they hoped to right the ship with Jordan Montgomery on the mound for the Yankees facing the A’s Paul Blackburn. Chad Green allowed a two-run homer in the eight and the Yankees lost 3-1.
The first inning saw DJ LeMahieu leading off for the Yankees; he walked on four pitches. Giancarlo Stanton singled to the middle.
