Series score: Rays 6, Ben Rice 2, Rest of Yankees 0

Baseball is such a weird sport. Bellinger crushes a ball to CF and is a couple feet from putting the Yankees up 5-1. Instead, the Rays score 4 runs, largely on the back of 3 infield grounders.
But I'm sure Yankees fans will find some way to blame Aaron Boone for that.

Gotta imagine that’s it for Schlittler. I’d go to Rodon for the 7th and 8th, FWIW.

This is unbelievable. Over the past 30 years, only 2 homegrown Yankees have played at least 100 games at third base: Miguel Andujar (153) and Oswaldo Cabrera (127). That's it.
Obviously A-Rod held it down for years, but 3B has been a black hole for a long time.
