Yankees Split Doubleheader With Cardinals

The New York Yankees faced a tough loss against the St. Louis Cardinals, ending 14-7, with Juan Soto's defensive errors in right field significantly impacting the game. Soto misplayed two catchable balls, allowing the Cardinals to build an early lead, which he attributed to misjudging the wind conditions. Despite a valiant comeback effort by the Yankees, tying the game at one point, they ultimately faltered in the seventh inning. While Soto's batting remains strong, with a season average of .293 and 37 home runs, his defensive struggles continue to raise concerns. Fans are hopeful that the Yankees will re-sign Soto, whose free agency could attract offers upwards of $500 million. Soto's partnership with Aaron Judge has become a highlight for Yankees fans as the team aims for a deep postseason run.
