Here’s MLB Network mentioning the stat that researched last night!!

7 Strong Innings of Work for Weathers 👏 #RepBX

@YankeeSource Lack of run support has been a bugaboo with Weathers so far this season. #Yankees #RepBX

Ryan Weathers pitched a great game today as the Yankees needed this series win. The offense is once again MIA.

@YESNetwork @Prevagen Damaso Marte!!!!!!!!!! #Yankees #RepBX

Can YOU Name That Yankee? @Prevagen Find #Prevagen at Walgreens, Duane Reade, or wherever you buy your supplements!

@BarstoolHubbs Dominguez was too aggressive there.

Why did that just happen

Yankees pitching probables at Cubs: Friday: Will Warren vs. Shota Imanaga Saturday: Max Fried vs. David Peterson Sunday: Gerrit Cole vs. Colin Rea

@pamsson The #Yankees poor 1-7 record in extra inning games will certainly really come back to bite them if they don't win the division. Their extra inning record is the worst in the majors so far this season and their worst record though their first 8 extra inning games of a season in 86 years (since 1940). They really need to win this game with Ryan Weathers starting today. #RepBX

@Yankees @StarrCompanies Please flush away last night and take the series this afternoon #Yankees!!!!!!!!!! #RepBX

Thursday Matinee. #RepBX

It's hard to explain why they've been this bad. I have no issue with the Yankees not bunting as the extra inning road team. I think the reason why they have struggled to get big hits clearly comes down to the fact that they have been under so much pressure. It's extremely complicated. #Yankees #RepBX

Plain and simple can someone in the press room please ask Boone why they have been so bad in extra innings?

Ali Sanchez has 3 throwing errors and has been the catcher for 656 plate appearances this season. That's the worst rate of throwing errors per PA among all catchers (min. 500 PA)

Seated for the Schlitt Show 🍿 #RepBX

@PF1799 @SharpStats17 It's incredibly hard to explain why the Yankees have played so poorly in such games. I'm totally okay with the team's no bunting strategy given the circumstances. I think the hitters are under too much pressure to get big hits and are trying to hit home runs.

@SharpStats17 And 12-28 on the road in extras since the manfred rule was implemented for a solid .300 winning percentage

Yankees are 1-7 in extra innings this season. That's the worst record in MLB.

@ChrisKirschner @YESNetwork Boone doesn't like to go off on his players too much.

Both Boone and Sanchez didn't have an issue with deciding to throw. It was just poor execution, both said, via @YESNetwork. Sorry, but that doesn't make much sense. Just hold the ball.

@JackCurryYES This was a game that the #Yankees had to win. You can't lose a game in which you lead 4-0 going into the 7th inning with Cam Schlittler pitching. This is essentially tied for the Yankees worst loss of the season with that May 17 game at Citi Field. Tonight was tied for the Yankees biggest blown lead loss this season with that May 17 game. The Yankees are now a major league worst 1-7 in extra inning games this season, marking their first season starting 1-7 or worse in their first 8 extra inning games since 1940. #RepBX

@seanmohen We should have won this game but let it get away twice. We need to play better tomorrow in order to win the series. #Yankees #RepBX

@SharpStats17 Their 7 walk-off losses this season are also tied for the 2nd most in the majors with the Athletics and Tigers. The Angels, Giants, Rockies and Royals are all tied for the major league lead with 8. #Yankees #RepBX

@SharpStats17 What was the last time that the #Yankees lost at least 7 of their first 8 extra inning games of a season. #RepBX

@Patrice_Carson This was an easily winnable game as the #Yankees led 4-0 with Schlittler on the mound and an Ali Sanchez error dooms the Yankees in the 11th and this is certainly among their toughest losses of the season. We need to find a way to flush this one and win 3 out of 4 tomorrow. #RepBX

@BryanHoch I don't know why the #Yankees can get big hits in extra innings this season. They are doing the right strategy of not bunting, but for whatever reason, they have struggled in these spots. #RepBX

Ryan Yarbrough will enter after throwing 51 pitches on Sunday. Yanks left the bases loaded in the 12th, with Ali Sanchez grounding out. NYY 5 CHW 5
