The New York Yankees Losing Streak Extended To Seven Games With 10-3 Loss To The New York Mets In The Beginning Of The Subway Series In Queens New York

The New Yankees losing streak extended to seven with 10-3 loss to the New York Mets in the beginning of the Subway Series in Queens New York.

When?

Friday night!

Why?

Jordan Montgomery who started for the New York Yankees seemed to be out of the first inning when Jonathan Villar was waved home on a Javier Báez single to left field, prompting a terrific throw by left fielder Joey Gallo that beat Villar by more than 20 feet.

On the night Jordan Montgomery was Montgomery was charged with a career-high seven runs (five earned) and seven hits over 3 1/3 innings.

Gary Sánchez did not aggressively reach for Villar, and a video review showed the runner touched home plate before being tagged on the helmet.

A bases-loaded walk to Pete Alonso tied the game and Urshela threw wildly to home plate after stabbing a Báez grounder, seeing the go-ahead run score as the ball sailed past Sánchez.

Gleyber Torres committed his 17th error.

When?

In the seventh inning!

How?

by throwing errantly to first on what should have been an inning-ending James McCann double-play ball in the seventh, allowing two runs to score.

Offensively Joey Gallo hit his 32nd homer of the season (and seventh with the Yankees) to right-center field in the second inning, the Yanks couldn’t mount anything further against rookie Tylor Megill, who struck out 10 over seven innings -- both career highs.

Anthony Rizzo hit a solo homer in the ninth to round out the scoring -- too late to make an impact in the outcome,

Jordan Montgomery had this to say about his performance on the mound for the New York Yankees!

I was just never really ahead of any counts and didn’t make any big pitches when I needed to,” Montgomery said. “So I’ve just got to flush it.”

We need to play loose and just go right after teams,” Montgomery said. “We know we’re talented. We just came off a [13-game] win streak. That didn’t just happen. We’re just trying to get back to playing baseball like that.”

We’re trying to do the best,” Urshela said. “Errors are going to happen. We have to control what we can control. If we make an error, just keep going and stay focused for the next play.”

Despite their losing streak was extended to seven games there was some good news.

Why?

Because Baltimore topped Toronto by a score of 6-4 last night and with Baltimore’s win the New York Yankees remained a half ahead for the second wild card spot.
