MLB Fans Roasted the Yankees After Embarrassing Base-Running Blunder In Ugly Loss

In this story:
The New York Yankees' struggles continued Wednesday when they lost to the Los Angeles Angels, 7-3.
It was another ugly performance for Aaron Boone’s team, which was swept by the Angels in their three-game series for the first time since 2009. They have now lost five of their last six games since the All-Star break and remain in last place in the AL East.
The Yankees have been playing some bad baseball and have made some brutal mistakes while doing so. That occurred again during Wednesday’s loss when Franchy Cordero had an embarrassing base-running blunder when, with one out and nobody else on base, he was thrown out at third on a ground ball to the shortstop.
