After a 2-hour, 34-minute rain delay, the Yankees lost, 9-2, to Milwaukee
The outfield was flooded and the stadium concourse became a Hudson River tributary when a drain turned into a geyser and sent fans fleeing to stay dry.
When the teams finally took the field, reliever Jonathan Loáisiga allowed a go-ahead homer to No. 9 hitter Tyrone Taylor to start a three-run eighth inning, and the Yankees fell two games below .500. The Yankees had four hits and managed just seven in the first two games of the series, getting outscored 13-0 from the seventh inning on. The Yankees have lost three straight by a combined 27-7 after winning eight of nine and are in danger of their first losing season since 1992.
“It’s tough,” Yankees captain Aaron Judge said. “We kind of got on a little roll there and obviously a little skid here, but that’s baseball.” Brewers’ Corbin Burnes will face Yankees’ Cy Young Award candidate Gerrit Cole on Sunday. Burnes is winless in eight starts since July 20 and Cole has won his last three starts.
