The New York Yankees are struggling with an offensive drought, marking their fifth consecutive loss and an alarming 29-inning scoreless streak, originating from a recent 4-3 defeat against the Boston Red Sox. After being swept by their rivals, they have failed to score in their last three games, including the first two against the underperforming Los Angeles Angels. The slump has been exacerbated by a recent downturn from superstar Aaron Judge, who has struck out 15 times in his last seven games.

Former Red Sox player Kevin Millar commented on the situation, noting that while this is undoubtedly a rough patch, the Yankees have a strong team. Judge's remarkable performance this season—hitting .372 with 26 home runs—has been a key factor for New York, but his recent dip means the rest of the lineup needs to step up. Despite their current challenges, the Yankees remain at the top of the AL East with a record of 42-30, but the pressure is mounting for additional offensive support.
