Yankees: Good news and bad news from 9-3 loss to Mets

The New York Yankees locked horns with the New York Mets on Tuesday night, as general manager Brian Cashman looks to bolster the roster before the trade deadline. However, their performance was lackluster, leading to a 9-3 defeat in the first game of their two-game series.

The Mets, despite carrying a less impressive 46-53 record into the match, dealt a crushing blow to the Yankees. As a result, the Bombers slipped further in the standings while striving to regain their footing in the Wild Card race. The Yankees’ defense was permeable, conceding 12 hits, including three home runs, though they managed to strike out 13 Mets batters.
