## Yankees Make Woeful History in Unprecedented Offensive Performance **New York, New York (April 20, 2023)** - The New York Yankees made history on Tuesday night, but not the kind they wanted. In a stunning display of offensive futility, the Bronx Bombers were held to just one hit in a 4-0 loss to the Baltimore Orioles. It was the first time in the team's 121-year history that they had managed just one hit in a game. The Yankees' offensive struggles have been well-documented this season. They entered Tuesday's game with a league-worst .208 batting average and had scored just 10 runs in their previous four games. Against the Orioles, the Yankees' offense was completely shut down. Oriole's starter Dean Kremer allowed just one hit - a single by Aaron Judge in the second inning and struck out 10 batters. The Yankees' bullpen was also unable to keep the game close. Jonathan Loaisiga allowed three runs in the fourth inning, and Lucas Luetge gave up another run in the fifth. The loss dropped the Yankees to 10-18 on the season, the worst record in the American League East. It is also the first time since 1997 that the Yankees have lost 18 of their first 28 games. The Yankees will look to break out of their offensive slump on Wednesday night when they face the Orioles again at Yankee Stadium.
