Well, we have to give the Yankees this: They do at least keep finding new ways to lose. After rallying from down four runs last night, they ended up falling to the Rays after a costly Jake Bauers fumble in left field allowed Tampa Bay to take the lead for good.
Unfortunately, that’s another loss on the tally in what’s been a difficult start to the season. With that in mind, let’s check in on what some of the notable competition in the AL did yesterday.
Toronto Blue Jays (19-14) 4, Pittsburgh Pirates (20-12) 0
Seven shutout innings from Chris Bassitt helped led the Jays past the Pirates in the opener of an interleague series in Pittsburgh.
