The Yankees were eliminated in the middle of Game 3 of the National League Division Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Philadelphia Phillies. The Dodgers had some fun at the Yankees’ expense.
As shown by Dodgers Nation on Instagram, the Dodger Stadium Jumbotron highlighted the score of the Yankees and Blue Jays game after it concluded. The fans at Dodger Stadium then broke out into a “Yankees suck” chant as New York’s season officially came to an end.
The Dodgers ended up dropping Game 3 of their series as the Phillies kept their season alive. The Yankees, on the other hand, are forced to look ahead to next season.
The Dodgers and Yankees met in the World Series a year ago, with Los Angeles taking the series in dominant 4-1 fashion. While the Dodgers are looking to become the first team to repeat as World Series champions since the Yankees did it 25 years ago, New York wasn’t able to get back in a disappointing end to their season.

“The ending’s the worst, right?” manager Aaron Boone said after Wednesday’s loss. “Especially when you know you have a really good group and a group of guys that really came together so well at the right time, the final couple months. This was a team. It’s a team that played for one another, did a lot of really good things, and we got beat here.
“Credit to the Blue Jays and the year they’ve had. They beat us this series, simple as that. It doesn’t make it any easier. It’s a beat-up room in there. They’re still sharing with one another. I felt like I should come out and owe you guys this, but know that the guys are in there still sharing with one another because they truly became a really close, close team and a really good team.”
