00:00Major League Baseball, come on now, Yankees.
00:02And again, sometimes we don't like to have, Joe, like grievances,
00:04like make it onto the air.
00:06But I needed the Yanks to get three runs.
00:08They get the solo home run by Jazz in the second.
00:10Like, wow, the Yankees actually scored a run.
00:13Cody Bellinger tacks on in the fourth inning with another solo home run.
00:16It's two to one, Yankees.
00:17The good vibes are back in the Bronx here.
00:19Maybe we can get a couple more runs and put away this Los Angeles Angels team,
00:23only to find themselves on the end of a three to two loss.
00:26And yes, they did score two runs.
00:27They hit two home runs.
00:28But only three total hits in that entire game.
00:31Multiple chances late with runners on base to sort of get the game tied up
00:35at three to three or take the lead.
00:37They weren't able to do that.
00:38So my question to you at this point is, not from a Yankees perspective,
00:41will they recover?
00:42Like, what actually happened?
00:44Because, Joe, they didn't run into Chris Sale, Spencer Strider,
00:48and Schwellenbach, let's just say, for the Atlanta Braves.
00:50Like, hey, man, you got three really good pitchers on the mound.
00:52You're struggling a little bit.
00:53It makes some sense.
00:54Like, you're getting guys like Kochanowitz out there
00:56and the Tyler Andersons of the world.
00:58Like, bad pitchers that they can't hit now.
01:01What happened to that Yankees offense?
01:04Well, what happened is the Yankees offense collectively together are hitting slumps.
01:10And, listen, it was bound to happen.
01:13They were – you had one guy hitting .400 for the first two months,
01:17two and a half months of the season here, Donnie.
01:18At some point, regression was coming here.
01:22The problem is it's not just – you can survive if just judge is the guy
01:27that's having a hard time going through it.
01:28We've seen this before.
01:30But you can't have Goldschmidt.
01:32You can't have Bellinger.
01:33You can't have pretty much the entire top half of your lineup go hitless every game.
01:39That is not going to cut it here, and that's exactly what's happened.
01:43It's all come – regression has all come for these guys at the same time.
01:48Bellinger – that was the first time we've seen Bellinger actually get on base
01:51in the month of June in forever.
01:53I think he's hitting .200, less than .200.
01:56Goldschmidt's hitting .170 this month.
01:59It all just seems to be happening at the same time.
02:02You know, Donnie, what happens with that is that positive regression will come in,
02:06and they'll all start hitting at the same time and all be well at the Bronx Bombers.
