Yankees fans criticize Heliot Ramos after base-running blunder against Blue Jays
Summary

Heliot Ramos faced backlash from New York Yankees fans after a lackluster base-running effort during Saturday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays, which saw the Yankees lose 4-1. Ramos, acquired during the trade deadline, has struggled offensively, going hitless in his last 23 at-bats and recording just two hits in 31 plate appearances since joining the team. His performance has drawn scrutiny, particularly after not hustling to first base following a misplay by the shortstop. The Yankees will conclude their series against the Blue Jays on Sunday before traveling to Baltimore for a series against the Orioles.
