LOS ANGELES — Some of the reasons behind the Yankees sinking into a 0-2 hole against the Dodgers were predictable. Carlos Rodón has had turbulent outings this postseason, and he had another one Saturday in Game 2 of the World Series.
At least a couple of Yankees players have struggled defensively all year, and those repeat offenders showed up again this weekend at Chavez Ravine.
The regular season routinely featured poor production from the bottom of New York's lineup, and that was a problem in each of the first two games of the Series.
But none of those factors are as flagrant as the biggest one — the one that the Yankees seem unprepared to overcome. [RELATED: Full coverage of the World Series] Aaron Judge is lost at the plate.
