The New York Yankees lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 2 of the World Series on Saturday.
After losing game one by a score of six to three, the Yankees fell again in game two by a score of four to two.
They will take a two-game series deficit home to Yankee Stadium for Game 3 on Monday.
One former Boston Red Sox player seemed excited that the Yankees lost another World Series.
David Ortiz hit the Yankees on the air after their two losses.
“Today was a good day because the Yankees are losing,” Ortiz said.
“Today was a good day… Because IT’S THE YANKEES LOSING!”

The rivalry between the Red Sox and Yankees is probably one of the most famous rivalries in Major League Baseball.
The rivalry doesn’t seem to end even after a player’s career, as Ortiz took the opportunity to hit the Yankees after losing Game 2 to the Dodgers.
Ortiz played 14 seasons with the Red Sox from 2003 to 2016, where he won three World Series in 2004, 2007 and 2013.
His postseason numbers include 85 games played with 17 home runs, 61 runs batted in and a .947 on-base plus slugging percentage.
The Yankees will look to bounce back in Game 3 when they return home to play in front of their home fans at Yankee Stadium.
It appears to be a must-win game for the Yankees, and they will look to Clark Schmidt on the mound to try and tame this explosive Dodgers offense.
