[Sports Center/Comprehensive Report] The Yankees were swept by the Rays in three games in the American League Division Series. They missed the World Series for 17 consecutive years, tying the worst record in team history. In this regard, Yankees legend "A-Rod" Rodriguez (Alex Rodriguez) criticized the current Yankees "concept" for something wrong, and Derek Jeter believed that "he defeated himself."

The Yankees last won the World Series back in 2009. After being eliminated from the playoffs this year, the team also fell into a 17-year championship drought. "A-Rod" Rodriguez admitted that the Rays left the Yankees helpless. They defeated the Yankees in the regular season and swept their opponents in the playoffs in October. Some things must change. I am not talking about player changes or transactions, but the team's philosophy. The entire team must change.

Please read on...

Rodriguez believes that the Yankees have used the same method to win 27 World Series championships in the past. If nothing changes, the results will repeat themselves again and again. For more than ten years, everyone has watched the same movie play out over and over again, but it has never changed. They may use the absence of "Judge" Judge (Aaron Judge) as an excuse. However, the mistakes that occurred in the first inning of Game 2 had nothing to do with Judge. It was one of the craziest half-innings he had ever seen, and he really couldn't delay it any longer.

Regarding the Yankees' performance this year, Jeter believes that they did not play well. When they perform poorly in the playoffs, all problems are sometimes magnified. Everyone will start to examine what has happened one by one. When facing a team like the Rays, they cannot make mistakes. Their problems have been exposed to some extent, which is why they can only pack up and go home now.

Jeter also mentioned that the Yankees dynasty he played for from the late 1990s to the early 2000s always focused on every detail, winning games even without home runs, and never "beating themselves."
