The leak, which occurred just before the game, saw sewage seep into the Yankees' clubhouse bathroom and spread to carpeted areas. Tampa's Department of Public Works is reportedly aware of the issue, with workers already tearing up part of the stadium entrance to access broken sewer lines.
'It's not great. It's all over the place,' Yankees manager Aaron Boone said. The team was forced to hold interviews in a hallway instead of the clubhouse and closed the bottom floor of their team store. Despite the unpleasant conditions, the Yankees still managed to defeat the Detroit Tigers 20-3, highlighted by a two-homer performance from Aaron Judge.
