TORONTO, CA — Down 0-1 in the ALDS, the Yankees find their backs against the wall once again in this postseason, but there is a bit more wiggle room for the Bombers to right the ship, for now.

While the main storyline will be the bullpen, specifically Luke Weaver, the offense deserves equal attention. So far this postseason, the Yankees offense has been sound asleep so far in the postseason, hitting just two home runs in the four games played and just 10 runs in those four games. What is making things worse, the Yankees are 6-for-32, a .187 average with RISP and 28 Runners left on base so far. Spoiling opportunities, like the bases loaded multiple times, can’t continue if the Yankees are still hoping to win a World Series. Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, Cody Bellinger, and Trent Grisham, their four primary power bats have yet to pop a home run yet this postseason. The Yankees had the bases loaded and no outs for Aaron Judge in the sixth inning yesterday and scored just one run — on an RBI walk by Bellinger.

Judge struck out on a really bad pitch, that was a ball out of the hand of Gausman, and admitted after the game that it was “definitely” a ball.

"I like our chances. We've got to keep getting those opportunities and we're going to come through when we need to." Judge said, regarding the struggles of the offense entirely this postseason.

“You’d like to come through there and kind of break the game open,” Bellinger said postgame. “It didn’t happen.”

At least Bellinger got an RBI out of it.

"It obviously sucks today, but we've got an opportunity tomorrow to go back home with a tied series." Anthony Volpe, who scored the lone run and got the rally started with a double said.

Another big issue for the Yankees right now is the fact that Luke Weaver can’t get anybody out right now. The Yankees have attributed this to the fact that Weaver has been tipping pitches as of late, and in his attempt to cover up the dificancies, Weaver was leaving pitches over the plate, or losing the plate entirely.

“There’s been adjustments I’ve had to make based off of things that people are seeing, and it just hasn’t really lined up.” Weaver said. “I don’t feel like my mind is completely clear to go out there and attack. “I’m at a point where I’m just, ‘Full send’ … I’m going to go out there and attack.”

Again, not a stuff issue…” Boone said. “We’ve just got to get him locked in with his delivery.”

“You’re trying to be careful about moving guys around and changing things up, but that’s kind of where we’re at.” pitching coach Matt Blake said.

"Things haven't gone his way, but everybody in this room has confidence in him to go out there and do his job. He's been a special piece of this team since he came over here." Aaron Judge said regarding Weaver’s struggles.

Another storyline in this game was that Yankees starter Luis Gil struggled to find his rhythm early, managing to record just eight outs before being lifted from the game. He allowed two solo home runs, accounting for both of Toronto’s early runs, and continued to battle command issues that have surfaced in recent outings. Gil’s velocity was solid — his fastball still sitting in the upper-90s — but his location within the zone left him vulnerable against a patient Blue Jays lineup that capitalized on mistakes. It marked yet another short outing for the young right-hander, forcing the Yankees to lean heavily on their bullpen far earlier than planned.

"Definitely not the outing we wanted. Not the result we wanted at all." Gil said via interpreter.

The Yankees will look to bounce back today with Max Fried on the mound.
