The New York Yankees blew a ninth-inning lead against the Boston Red Sox as their slump continued. While the Yankees are still one of the best teams in the MLB, their recent record would not indicate that. With one win in their last nine games, the Yankees skid is showing no signs of slowing down.Clay Holmes entered the bottom of the ninth to close out the game for the Yankees, but was unable to do so. J.D. Martinez hit a single to drive in the game's tying run. An inning later in the bottom of the 10th, Tommy Pham drove in the winning run.Talkin' Baseball posted a clip of the game-winning play and the ensuing celebration to Twitter.Talkin’ Baseball@TalkinBaseball_Tommy Pham walks it off for the Red Sox!19613Tommy Pham walks it off for the Red Sox! https://t.co/hj5dNHcW7FIt's never good to be a Yankees fan when your team has just lost to the Boston Red Sox. With one of the most heated rivalries in professional sports, every game feels personal.Brandon Hauff@bhauff_549@Yankees This team is completely lost1861@Yankees This team is completely lostAfter many months of dominance to start the season, Yankees fans are finally getting used to losing. Clifford Asness@CliffordAsness@Yankees Michael King going down was a dark day for this team. But that’s an excuse, we are now just a bad baseball team.7@Yankees Michael King going down was a dark day for this team. But that’s an excuse, we are now just a bad baseball team.New York Yankees star slugger Aaron Judge has been one of the few bright spots over the last 10 games. Despite the losses, his offensive dominance has not been affected, proven by the 429-foot home run he blasted in the game.Michael L. Gayles Sr@mgizzle70@Yankees We simply CANNOT keep this up! How do the struggling hitters in the lineup continue to watch an absolute BEAST like Judge at the plate, and not make adjustments of their own?@Yankees We simply CANNOT keep this up! How do the struggling hitters in the lineup continue to watch an absolute BEAST like Judge at the plate, and not make adjustments of their own?It would take a lot for a team with 71 wins by August 12 to lose hope, but that is beginning to happen in New York. The New York Yankees are losing their reputation as the biggest and the baddest team in the MLB, and their fans realize it. If they wind up slumping while entering the playoffs, their once promising season could end in an acrimonious defeat.Igor for hart@kreiderfor50@Yankees I’m starting to believe we were never a good baseball team and we where just lucky for half a season101@Yankees I’m starting to believe we were never a good baseball team and we where just lucky for half a seasonThe Bulanator@TheBulanator@Yankees Bring up our untraded prospects… change up the lineup, and make better managerial decisions, same mistakes the whole month, change it up12@Yankees Bring up our untraded prospects… change up the lineup, and make better managerial decisions, same mistakes the whole month, change it uptrevino is goated (71-41)@anonyankee@Yankees we aren’t going to win if we aren’t swinging the bats, defense isn’t going to cut it.@Yankees we aren’t going to win if we aren’t swinging the bats, defense isn’t going to cut it.Jovany Santiago@LandingOnOtsiti@Yankees literally complained about clay two weeks ago and people said he was still good this man has become the worst closer for the yankees like chapman complaining about not having run support but can’t even close out a game without giving up a run or a home run@Yankees literally complained about clay two weeks ago and people said he was still good this man has become the worst closer for the yankees like chapman 😐 complaining about not having run support but can’t even close out a game without giving up a run or a home runKyle@McAllisterKyleJ@Yankees This team hasn’t been good for awhile now. Just not even fun to watch. Boone couldn’t manage a fantasy lineup but somehow has a job in the MLB. What kind of manager watches his closer throw 9 straight balls and just blows bubbles in the dugout 3@Yankees This team hasn’t been good for awhile now. Just not even fun to watch.

If the New York Yankees continue their skid with yet another lost series, they may not be able to regain their confidence.However, if they manage to pull off two road wins, they will once again be among the favorites.
