New York Yankees on Historic Road Cold Streak That Franchise Hasn't Seen Since 1945

Road struggles plagued the New York Yankees for a few weeks leading up to the All-Star break, but they couldn't break out of the slump against the Atlanta Braves on Friday.

Winning on the road was one of the secrets to the New York Yankees' success in 2024, considering 50 of their American League-leading 94 wins came outside of the Bronx.

They have not found that same level of success in 2025.

The Yankees opened the second half at the Atlanta Braves on Friday, ultimately falling 7-3. That dropped them to 23-25 in away games this season, including 2-12 over their last 14. New York's pitchers have allowed 85 runs in that stretch while scoring just 59.

According to Sports Reference's Katie Sharp, this marks the first time since August 1945 that the Yankees have allowed 85 or more runs and gone 2-12 or worse over a span of 14 road games.

2- 12, 85 Runs Allowed

This is the 1st time since August 1945 that the Yankees had a span of 14 Road Games with 12+ Losses and 85+ Runs Allowed.

The cold streak dates back to June 13, when the Yankees lost to their rival Boston Red Sox in walk-off fashion. Boston wound up completing the sweep that weekend thanks to New York plating just four runs across the three-game set.

The Yankees have two games left in their series against the Braves. From there, they will wrap up their road trip against the Toronto Blue Jays.

New York already got swept in four games at Rogers Centre earlier this month.
