Andrew McCutchen reacts dejectedly after striking out with the bases load in the sixth inning of the Yankees' 8-7 loss Saturday.

So much for a dramatic Yankees victory, something they specialized in during the first half of the season.

Down by seven runs in the seventh inning Saturday to the Blue Jays, the Yankees stormed back with a six-run seventh, sparked by Miguel Andujar’s grand slam off ex-Yankee Tyler Clippard to get to within a run.

Nevertheless, Andrew McCutchen followed by striking out to end the inning and the Yankees weren’t able to finish the comeback in an 8-7 loss in The Bronx.
