NEW YORK (AP) — Instead of closing in on title No. 28, the New York Yankees are on the verge of getting swept in the World Series for just the fourth time.
Aaron Judge again looked lost at the plate, starting pitching faltered for the second straight game and the Yankees dropped into a 3-0 Series deficit with a 4-2 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday night.
In the quiet Yankees clubhouse, players insisted they could spark an improbable turnaround. No team has overcome a 3-0 World Series deficit.
“All it takes is one,” Judge said. “All it takes is one swing, one at-bat, one play, everything changes for us.”
