New York Yankees pitcher Carlos Rodón endured a disappointing outing against the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday, surrendering seven earned runs and 11 hits in a performance that culminated in the team's loss. After being pulled from the game, Rodón was visibly emotional, with camera footage capturing him staring blankly and appearing to have teary eyes in the dugout.
Rodón's outing marked the second consecutive poor start for the left-hander, following a five-earned-run performance against the Boston Red Sox last weekend. His struggles come at a crucial time for the Yankees, who are looking to regain consistency after losing back-to-back series against divisional foes the Red Sox and Baltimore Orioles.

Despite the Yankees maintaining the lead in the AL East, the recent setbacks have raised concerns about the team's pitching staff. Starting from the 10th inning on Wednesday night, Yankees pitchers allowed at least one run in every inning except one until Rodón was pulled. The team has conceded a staggering 27 runs in 14 innings, an alarming trend for a contending ballclub.
Rodón acknowledged the boos he received from the home crowd, stating, "I didn’t perform, obviously, to the best of my ability. It’s just how it goes here." His teammate, Gleyber Torres, offered support to Rodón after he was pulled, patting him on the shoulder and giving him a hug.

The Yankees will be hoping for a better outing from Marcus Stroman on Saturday night as he faces Charlie Morton of the Braves. Stroman boasts a 3.08 ERA this season but allowed four earned runs on seven hits in a losing effort against the Red Sox on Sunday.
The team's recent struggles highlight the importance of consistency in pitching, a crucial aspect for success in Major League Baseball. The Yankees will need to address these issues to maintain their standing in the AL East and contend for a playoff berth.
