Yankees announcers Joe Girardi and Michael Kay both shook their heads at Vivas's visible lack of effort and voiced their disappointment on-air. "Well, this is inexcusable," Girardi said. "I know [the Yankees] went over that in a meeting. That can't happen. Those are little things that cost you a chance to have Aaron Judge hit with first and third."

Pinch-hitter Giancarlo Stanton delivered a two-run double and Bellinger added an RBI single that made it 7-3. But Judge extinguished the rally when he struck out against lefty Dylan Lee with runners on the corners.

The issues at third base were glaring in New York's first game after the break. Having to go with a bullpen game wasn't a good sign, either.

Warren did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing five runs on five hits and three walks over 3.2 innings against Atlanta. He struck out five.

The Yankees (53-44), who have lost three straight, fell three games behind the Blue Jays in the American League East.

Both decisions backfired and the Yankees’ slump continued with a 7-3 stinker that was their 19th loss in 30 games since June 13.
