What happened

All sorts of problems were on display for the Yankees: infield defense that has been under the microscope again underwhelmed; a couple of misplays extended an inning that would not end; Will Warren could not overcome the problems behind him and could not put…

Why it matters

But these issues become minimized when the Yankees offense hums and Aaron Judge destroys baseballs.
