Sloppy Defense & No Luck On Offense Doomed Yankees


SP Ivan Nova had a dreadful 3rd inning that ultimately lost the game for New York

It Was Over When... - Baltimore's Adam Jones belted a 2-run shot off of Rafael Soriano to give them a nice cushion, 7-1 headed into the 8th inning.

Turning Point - Ivan Nova's terrible 3rd inning that led to 5 runs batted in (with the help of a Jeter error) putting New York in a deep hole.

Stat Of The Night - The Yankees only had 1 hit through 8 innings before finally getting hot in the 9th with 4, but it was all for none as the 6 run deficit was too much to overcome.
