The Yankees tried to bunt while down 4 runs to the Red Sox and gave up a double play, and MLB fans roasted them

The New York Yankees are not having a great time right now.

During a Saturday game against the archrival Boston Red Sox, Yankees infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa attempted to hit a bunt and rush to first base as outfielder Giancarlo Stanton was trying to make it to second base.

There was only one problem. The Red Sox catcher made a swift move on the bunt, caught it for the first out and threw Stanton out on first before he had a chance to make it back to base. Also, the Yankees were down four runs to the Red Sox before this failed bunt attempt. It was a disaster.

Letting up an outrageously embarrassing double play to Boston of all teams has to sting New York fans, but it is an accurate summation of how the Yankees’ season has gone so far. Just watch this and try to understand what happened.

The Yankees have a losing record for the first time in forever, and it’s a testament to the fact that things are just not working right now for one of the most storied baseball teams in the league.

Although, this is also the Yankees we’re talking about. MLB fans had a field day with making fun of this bizarre flop of a bunt attempt.

MLB fans ripped the Yankees for this.
