The Yankees’ Fourth of July matchup with the Mets started with a bang, with Jasson Domínguez and Aaron Judge going back-to-back to open the game. It ended oh-so familiarly, with the Yankees blowing it and suffering another mind-numbing loss. Logically, this can’t last forever, the Yankees losing game after game in increasingly frustrating ways. In the moment, however, it feels as though it will never end.
Ahead of the game, distract yourself from the current team’s run of form with Sam’s lookback 25 years, as well as Matt’s look-around the league from Friday night. Also, Peter’s At-Bat of the Week features a rare bright spot, Aaron Judge’s dramatic game-tying home run on Wednesday night.
