Unfortunately, their World Series hopes crashed and burned against the Tampa Bay Rays. They were swept out of the playoffs by Tampa Bay, losing 4-3 in Game 3. After the game, Yankees ace Max Fried was not in the mood to hold back his thoughts in front of the media.
"It really sucks because we played a really sound game and did enough to win. Unfortunately, I didn't do enough to hold up my end of the bargain… We had high expectations for ourselves, and we didn't meet them," Fried said, via YES Network.
