They started kicking the ball around and playing Yankee defense. “(Fat Joe) was on the jumbotron, I’m pretty sure, right before the fifth. I looked over at [Brent] Honeywell and said, ‘The Fat Joe Curse. Watch.’ And we started chipping away, chipping away, chipping away. And bad play, bad play, bad play. And I end up getting my second (World Series) with the Dodgers.”The Yankees committed a series of errors in the fifth inning. Aaron Judge dropped a routine fly ball in center field, Anthony Volpe misfired on a throw to third baseman Jazz Chisholm and Gerrit Cole and Anthony Rizzo did not communicate who was going to cover the first base bag on a simple ground ball.
