New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone pulled his players from a national anthem standoff at the beginning of their series finale against the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday, and it appeared to be a sign of things to come.

The Reds jumped out to an early 2-0 lead with home runs from Nick Martini and Jonathan India. Then, Spencer Steer hit a three-run shot in the fifth inning. The dingers all came off of Yankees starting pitcher Marcus Stroman and pushed the lead to 5-0.

New York got two runs back in the bottom of the fifth, thanks to home runs from Austin Wells and Ben Rice. Juan Soto also knocked a homer in the seventh, but the damage was already done.

Cincinnati ultimately went on to win 8-4 and complete a sweep of the Yankees.

But before the Reds could celebrate, Yankees fans added insult to injury.

Candalerio made a heads-up move and advanced to second.
