BALTIMORE — Third basemen are instructed to go after every ground ball toward the hole if they feel a clean play can be made.

The long day, reduced as it was, began like how the Yankees dreamt it back in December 2017: It concluded with a recurring nightmare they’ve come to know all too well. If “Next Man Up” has come to define the Yankees in the Aaron Boone era, Giancarlo Stanton too often has served the role as …
