The New York Yankees fell to the Detroit Tigers on Friday evening in an unfortunate turn of events. Again, the Yankees’ offense struggled considerably, tallying 12 strikeouts, with nine of them coming with the first three batters in the order.
DJ LeMahieu, Giancarlo Stanton, and Aaron Judge combined for nine of the 12 strikeouts, representing a disappointing outing for a team that desperately needs to string together a few solid performances.
Last week, the Yankees enjoyed a six-game win streak but have lost three of their last four games and have another contest against the Detroit Tigers at 4:10 PM on Saturday afternoon.
