It is a funhouse mirror, a high-speed free-fall ride and a freak show rolled into one. Major League Baseball’s 60-game season also is something you’re more likely to find in a courtroom than at a carnival: A viable defense strategy against allegations of wrongdoing. What, you seriously want to jettison Brian Cashman or Aaron Boone …

How did a team that won nine of its first 11 games in a season limited to 60 dates and led the AL East by four lengths on Aug. 8 wake up Wednesday in Buffalo at 21-21 and playing for its postseason life? Well, losing 15 of 20 has a way of quickly turning an …

This is what it sounds like when bats die. One night after wasting a rare river of runs, the Yankees morphed into hitters who used soaked editions of the N.Y. Post for bats against the Blue Jays on Tuesday night. J.A. Happ provided a cure for the ills that have infected the Yankees across the …

It appears that Saturday night’s woeful performance was the last straw. Gary Sanchez was benched on Sunday by Aaron Boone in favor of Erik Kratz and it is uncertain how long he will remain there.

It’s hard to top a five-run rally when you’re down to your last out, but Deivi Garcia and the Yankees came close when they finished off a sweep of Sunday’s doubleheader against the Mets.

At some point the Yankees had to miss the firepower provided by Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton and DJ LeMahieu. With that trio on the injured list, Masahiro Tanaka absorbed a beating and Rays lefty Blake Snell provided far too many hills for the Yankees to climb on the way to a 6-3 loss at Yankee …

The Yankees picked up another win Saturday night, but it came with another costly injury. DJ Lemahieu left Saturday’s 11-5 victory over the reeling Red Sox with a sprained left thumb suffered on an awkward swing. So far, though, nothing has slowed the Yankees’ offense.
