The Cleveland Guardians are struggling in the American League Championship Series, now down 2-0 after a 6-3 loss to the New York Yankees. Rookie shortstop Brayan Rocchio and right fielder Will Brennan made critical errors that allowed runs to score, contributing to the team's deficit.
Rocchio dropped a pop-up from Aaron Judge, leading to an early run for New York. Manager Stephen Vogt acknowledged the difficulty of the play, while Brennan misplayed a double by Anthony Rizzo, further extending the Yankees' lead.
Despite a strong defensive record in the postseason, the Guardians' errors have raised concerns about their performance as they prepare for Game 3 at home.
