Nick Turturro Flips Out on 'Gutless' Yankees After Altuve Walk-Off
The New York Yankees melted down again on Sunday, blowing a five-run, ninth-inning lead and losing 8-7 to the Houston Astros. Jose Altuve had a walk-off, three-run home run off Chad Green to end it. Actor and die-hard Yankees fan Nick Turturro was not happy.
Here's video of the home run:

Strong take from the 59-year-old NYPD Blue star. Turturro does this a lot, he makes a ton of social media videos about the Yankees and it's safe to say he's a really passionate fan.

The loss on Sunday means the Yankees head to the All-Star break at 46-43 and in fourth place in the AL East. They're easily the most disappointing MLB team this season so far.
I have a feeling the second half is going to be just as rough on Turturro and the rest of the Yankees fans out there. Something is just missing with this team.
