The New York Yankees are suddenly searching for answers after being swept by the Tampa Bay Rays, extending their losing streak to five games.
New York opened the season red-hot at 7-and-1, but momentum has quickly shifted. Over the weekend, Tampa Bay controlled the series, capitalizing on timely hitting while the Yankees struggled to deliver in key moments.
Pitching has also been inconsistent, with missed locations and bullpen lapses allowing games to slip away late. Combine that with an offense that has cooled off, and the Yankees now find themselves trying to reset early in the season.
The Yankees will look to regroup quickly and get back on track as they head into their next series tonight against the Angels at Yankees Stadium. First pitch is at 7:05 EDT.
