The New York Yankees are going through a rough three game losing streak that began with a loss in the last game of a series against the Detroit Tigers. The streak has now extended through the Philadelphia Phillies which have run roughshod over the Yankees in the past two games to the tune of 22-14.

Yankees looking to sweep the Blue Jays
The NL East lead the Toronto Blue Jays held over the New York Yankees has shriveled to just2.5 games after the Yankees took out the Jays 3-7 in the second of a three game home stand. Catcher Brian McCann had a lot to do with the game two victory last night by tying a career high with five RBIs, led by a go-ahead two-run homer off starter Mark Buehrle in the fourth inning, guiding the Yankees to a 7-3 victory.
“Tonight was a good night,” McCann said. “It was about time I chipped in. … It was just nice to contribute on the offensive side for a change.”
Yankees waiting for Rodriguez to return
A-Rod is sure he will return to form the only question is…when.
“We’re in the very beginning, I would say Stage 1, in this recovery,” Rodriguez said. “The recovery is going very well. I’ve been devoting 100 percent of my time and my focus into getting back and playing and helping this team win a title.”
What he may not recover from, however, is the PED scandal that has recently erupted causing “The Donald” Donald Trump to recently call out A-Rod on the Twitter social media feed.
“The @Yankees should immediately stop paying A-Rod—he signed his contract without telling them he was a druggie,”
The 37-year old Rodriguez is still due $114 million on the final five years of his contract which, Trump pointed out, is more then the entire Houston Astros roster.
“A-Rod’s salary is more than the entire @astros. Half the players on @astros will have better seasons than him. A-Rod is a joke!”
Whatever happens with A-Rod, you can be sure that the New York Yankees will be exciting this year so don’t pass on the opportunity to get your tickets!
