It was a quiet Saturday across the Finger Lakes sports calendar, with only one tracked team in action — and it wasn’t a good day for the Yankees. Cincinnati beat New York 10-2, with Reds first baseman Sal Stewart tying his career high with six RBIs to pace the blowout. The Reds improved to 36-39 with the win, while the Yankees fell to 46-29 despite holding one of the better records in the American League.
The loss was a rough one for Yankees fans to digest. Being outscored 10-2 at home is one thing; watching a guy tie his career best against your pitching staff is another. Cincinnati’s offense did the damage early and often, and there wasn’t much drama to be found by the later innings. The Yankees remain comfortably above .500, but this was not their afternoon.
Every other tracked team — the Bills, Sabres, Giants, Rangers, Knicks, Red Wings, Knighthawks, Cornell, Hobart, and Syracuse — was idle Saturday.
