Paul Goldschmidt Reveals Yankees Slump-Ending Mindset

The New York Yankees were in the midst of a historic slump — putting up some of their worst numbers in the Aaron Boone era — when finally, something clicked and they secured a 7-3 win over the Los Angeles Angels.

The victory was in no small part part due to first baseman Paul Goldschmidt, who hit a solo home run deep to left field in the second inning. The hit came immediately after center fielder Trent Grisham also hit a two-run homer, securing the Pinstripes an early lead. After the game, Goldschmidt discussed the Yankees' mindset when taking on the slump.

"Obviously these last few games haven't gone our way, today was good. But we've got to keep going, it's a long season. It's a long season when you're playing well, it's a long season when you're losing a few games in a row and we understand that," Goldschmidt said.

"We've done a good job just taking it day by day and today was a good example of that. We'll just do that the whole year and see what happens," he continued.
