Yankees get absolutely EMBARRASSED with only 2 hits in 4-1 loss to Cubs

Two hits. TWO. The New York Yankees managed exactly two measly hits in their final game before the All-Star break and got completely shut down by Shota Imanaga. This is not the way you want to head into the break. Giancarlo Stanton hit a solo shot to tie it 1-1 in the second, then the offense basically disappeared. Austin Wells got the only other hit with a sixth-inning single before immediately getting doubled up. That’s it. That’s the entire offensive output from the supposed “Bronx Bombers.” Meanwhile Imanaga was dealing after that early homer, going seven strong innings and making the Yankees look completely lost at the plate. The Cubs racked up 10 hits and made it look easy. Will Warren wasn’t terrible through five innings but Ian Hamilton came in and immediately gave up a two-run bomb to Dansby Swanson that put the game away. Just brutal timing. The Braves are up next Friday. Better figure it out quick. #Yankees #MLB
