The New York Yankees' struggles continued in their series against the Los Angeles Angels, as they lost two out of three games. The trip to California was supposed to be an opportunity for the Yankees to get back on track going into September. Instead, they drew in the series against the Oakland Athletics and outright lost the series to the Angels.Shohei Ohtani won the last game almost single-handedly for the Angels, as his three-run homer was the lone source of offense for the team. The Angels' pitching and defense held the high-powered Yankees offense to only two runs.New York Yankees fans have seen a lot of losses over the past few weeks, with every defeat compounding the pain. Fans who once praised the roster now see the gaps in the lineup more clearly.

With only one month left in the regular season, the Yankees are running out of time to turn things around before the playoffs.Ｓｍａｌｌｓ@Smalls2552@Yankees Terrible absolutely disgusting@Yankees Terrible absolutely disgustingJaD iN@JaD_iN_@Yankees Actually sick and tired of this@Yankees Actually sick and tired of thisCody Lillard@birdznesttMan I really wish we could dig out of this slump #RepBX twitter.com/yankees/status…New York Yankees@YankeesFINAL: Angels 3, Yankees 2.194FINAL: Angels 3, Yankees 2.Man I really wish we could dig out of this slump #RepBX twitter.com/yankees/status…The New York Yankees have not had such a bad month in nearly three decades.Adam Zagoria@AdamZagoriaThe Yankees finish August 10-18, their worst month since going 9-19 in September 1991, per @RealMichaelKay And that 91 team was REALLY bad. twitter.com/Yankees/status…New York Yankees@YankeesFINAL: Angels 3, Yankees 2.32FINAL: Angels 3, Yankees 2.The Yankees finish August 10-18, their worst month since going 9-19 in September 1991, per @RealMichaelKay And that 91 team was REALLY bad. twitter.com/Yankees/status…The Yankees' once dominant lead has almost completely disappeared, and the American League East crown is now back up for grabs.Adam@the_real_adam2Remember that time the Yankees were up 15.5 games.

If the Rays can win the series, they will find themselves within striking distance of the lead.Home-field advantage could be paramount for the Yankees in the playoffs and should not be given up lightly. If they cannot find a way to win in September, their October schedule could be a lot shorter than anticipated.
