Aaron Boone’s pathetic Trent Grisham defense is final indictment of modern Yankees
For the majority of their history, but more specifically the 1990s and early 2000s, the Yankees' calling card was that they would always be crisp at the margins, efficiently outworking their opponents until they were worn down and ready to surrender. 3-2 games became 8-2. Tight contests became Mariano Rivera's canvasses. The Red Sox, especially in the late '90s and beginning of the next decade, were hustle-fueled, but ragged. Sure, they would overcome the Yankees occasionally, but when important games arrived, New York would always be better prepared.

What should have been a single turned into a two-base play when outfielder Trent Grisham lazily approached the ball with one hand and then fumbled it, allowing a hustling Candelario to reach second on the error.
