The Yankees were 49-0 this season when leading after eight innings. The Reds were 0-48 when trailing after eight innings.Talkin' Baseball posted a clip of Jonathon India's two-run single, which capped off an impressive 4-3 comeback for the Reds.Talkin’ Baseball@TalkinBaseball_Jonathan India go-ahead single!

They blew the lead in their last two outings against the Boston Red Sox, including a 5-0 headstart that eventually ended in an 11-6 loss.It seems to be a reoccurring theme now with the Yankees, and Tuesday's loss was the latest in a string of calamities.Evan Branch@tbrandsports101@Yankees Please stop choking games away@Yankees Please stop choking games awayWith Gerrit Cole doing his part (seven innings, no runs allowed, 11 strikeouts), the pressure now turns squarely on Aaron Boone and the bullpen.Prof. Copperfield@MiracleLegumez@YESNetwork @RyanRuocco @JackCurryYES Aaron Boone just managed this team into a losing streak. That Holmes was allowed to face a fourth batter is ridiculous. That he was allowed to face a FIFTH is indefensible. #Yankees1@YESNetwork @RyanRuocco @JackCurryYES Aaron Boone just managed this team into a losing streak. That Holmes was allowed to face a fourth batter is ridiculous. That he was allowed to face a FIFTH is indefensible. #YankeesUntil recently, the New York Yankees boasted one of the best bullpens in the league. Even without Jonathan Loaisiga, Zack Britton and a limited Aroldis Chapman, the bullpen has depth and quality.Clay Holmes has been a revelation this season and was selected for his first All-Star game. Michael King has been outstanding, while Albert Abreu, Wandy Peralta and Lucas Luetge have exceeded expectations.Papa G@papa_gardner11The last three games showed to the entire world the Yankees have no urgency and no fire in the late game. They blew 3+ run leads in back to back games and the offense did jack shit. Their bullpen imploded in all three. This team will still win the division but will lose.32The last three games showed to the entire world the Yankees have no urgency and no fire in the late game.
