On a night highlighted by stellar pitching, the New York Yankees faced off against the Los Angeles Angels, with both teams' aces putting on a dominant display. Jose Soriano of the Angels threw seven shutout innings, while Yankees' Clarke Schmidt followed suit with 7.2 scoreless innings. Unfortunately for the Yankees, the offense faltered once again. Despite having the bases loaded and two outs in the 11th inning, Anthony Volpe grounded out, sealing a narrow 1-0 loss for New York.

Manager Aaron Boone defended Volpe's aggressive approach at the plate, suggesting that sometimes the first pitch is the best one to hit. Despite his struggles, Volpe continues to show promise this season with eight homers and 39 RBIs, though he went 0-for-4 in this game. The Yankees now find themselves on a four-game losing streak, while the Angels snapped their own three-game skid. The teams are set to face each other again in the coming days, with Will Warren and Kyle Hendricks slated to start for the respective teams.
