BREAKDOWN: Yankees’ Extra-Inning Road WOES Continue—Gerrit Cole’s Slump & Aaron Judge Concerns

New York Yankees’ extra-inning woes on the road threaten their postseason hopes. Can Aaron Judge’s status and Gerrit Cole’s recent struggles be resolved in time to secure a division title?

Stacey Gotsulias and Brian McKeon dissect the Yankees’ frustrating 13-inning loss to the Minnesota Twins, spotlighting the team’s troubling record in extra-inning road games since the "Manfred Man" rule. Key discussions highlight Cole’s dip in performance, Carlos Rodón’s resurgence, and Clark Schmidt's promising return from injury. The hosts also tackle Aaron Judge’s lower leg discomfort, examine the AL East playoff race with the surging Tampa Bay Rays, and debate whether organizational mindset is holding the Yankees back. Will the Yankees adapt their approach and flip their extra-innings fortunes with October looming, or does a deeper issue haunt this playoff push?
