What happened

Two games, two losses, one season over. The 2-5 defeat in Tampa Bay dropped them to 0-2 and prompted the observation that under Aaron Boone, nine years have passed without a series win absent home field advantage. The turning point came two days later in the Bronx, a 3-4 loss that finished the sweep at 0-3 and left a visiting team dancing on the infield, which one fan filed under "a Brian Cashman tradition." Top three payroll since 2009, zero titles, and counting.

What fans said

  • “Yet ANOTHER season where an opposing team is celebrating at Yankee Stadium. A Brian Cashman tradition.”
