Yandy Díaz went hitless against the Yankees on Thursday.
In a 6-3 loss to the Yankees on Thursday, Yandy Díaz struggled. As a result, he went 0-for-5, ending a six-game hitting streak. Tampa Bay still relies on Yandy as an important player.

In several games, he recorded multiple hits and drove in crucial runs, boosting his batting average. In the last seven games, he has slashed .300/.344/.533, proving to be a critical player and providing the team with much-needed momentum.
Lourdes Gurriel Jr. did not get any hits on Thursday.

In previous seasons, Gurriel demonstrated much stronger performance, consistently maintaining a higher batting average and on-base percentage.

The 22-year-old rookie catcher took his position behind the plate and hit seventh in the lineup for the White Sox on Thursday afternoon against the Athletics. Overall, the White Sox failed to score any runs and managed only four hits in total during the game, so Quero wasn't solely to blame.
