Workers were tearing up part of the stadium entrance to access broken sewer lines, while security guards directed people around pools of stinking water. The Yankees closed the bottom floor of their team store as sewage seeped into carpeted areas outside the bathroom.
Despite the plumbing issues, manager Aaron Boone remained optimistic, stating "It's not great... it's all over the place" but expressed hope for a quick cleanup before the next game. The Yankees overcame the disruption, defeating the Detroit Tigers 20-3 with Aaron Judge hitting two home runs.
