After a weird couple days for the Yankees, they finally started their second half on Friday night against the Red Sox. It would’ve been nicer to have gotten a few more days of not watching this team.
Before the All-Star break, the Yankees’ offense had put in some promising efforts. However, several integral parts have since had to go on the COVID injured list, leading to an array of call-ups. While it’s still too early to write off the likes of debutants Trey Amburgey and Hoy Park, they didn’t do anything to inspire a dynamic offensive output in this this game.
