David Ortiz mocks Yankees down 0-2 in ALDS vs Blue Jays

David Ortiz, the Boston Red Sox legend and current MLB on Fox analyst, has openly mocked the New York Yankees after they fell behind 0-2 in the American League Division Series against the Toronto Blue Jays. During a broadcast with Yankees icons Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez, Ortiz joked that the Yankees' playoff hopes were over, saying "They can bring Jesus back and they’re still going to Cancun," implying the Yankees were headed for an early offseason. He further quipped that the only way the Yankees could win would be if former greats like Jeter, Mariano Rivera, Andy Pettitte, and Rodriguez returned to play. The Blue Jays dominated the series with big offensive performances, including a historic grand slam by Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and strong pitching from rookie Trey Yesavage. Despite Aaron Judge's efforts, New York's lineup struggled, leading to a blowout 13-7 loss in Game 2 and placing them on the brink of elimination. Ortiz's teasing carried extra weight given the Yankees had recently eliminated the Red Sox in the wild-card round, fueling the rivalry and adding to the entertainment for fans.
