The New York Yankees desperately need a strong finish to keep their playoff hopes alive.

The New York Yankees put up a good fight, but their freefall continued. Francisco Lindor’s three home runs sealed the Queens leg of the Subway Series for the New York Mets.

Now, the Yankees are a full game out of the Wild Card race less than a month after holding the first berth. Hopefully, Monday’s makeup game with the Minnesota Twins proves the start of another hot streak.
