Yankees’ anemic offense struggles again in loss to Reds
Carlos Rodon’s few mistakes were hammered. His club’s offensive mistakes were plentiful. This version of the Yankees — with a star-studded top of the lineup but Muggsy Bogues length — does not have much room for error, so flawed games become losses. Wednesday’s effort was flawed, so the Yankees lost, 3-2, to the Reds in The Bronx in front of 47,646 frustrated fans. A righty-heavy Yankees lineup was five-hit by lefty Andrew Abbott and four Cincinnati relievers. They clawed back into the game with a two-run double by Anthony Volpe in the seventh inning, but that would conclude the club’s scoring. The Yankees put...
Yankees lose another series as offense can’t complete comeback against Reds
NEW YORK — Before first pitch on Wednesday, Yankees manager Aaron Boone was asked if Aaron Judge will start getting the Barry Bonds treatment this summer with how well he’s been swinging the bat. Opposing teams could start to intentionally walk him or at least pitch around him...

Volpe opened the season as a middle- or bottom-of-the-order bat before he rode a hot streak to the top of the lineup. But the second-year shortstop stalled in front...
Why Aaron Judge may soon be getting ‘Barry Bonds treatment’
Aaron Boone said if Aaron Judge continues to hit at his current pace, he may get a bit of the “Barry Bonds treatment,” with opposing teams choosing to walk him intentionally rather than watch him do more damage. “There will be stretches where that probably happens,’’ Boone said before Wednesday’s 3-2 loss to the Reds in The Bronx. Perhaps the better question is why it hasn’t started already, especially with the Yankees lineup in disarray beyond Judge and Juan Soto. On Wednesday, though, Judge was set up to tie the game — or more — with runners on the corners and one out...
