In record time, nostalgia turned to nausea.
The 2009 World Series Yankees were honored in an Old-Timers’ Day ceremony on an afternoon filled with emotion and remembrances.
Then a real game began, and less than an hour later boos rained down on the 2024 version.
Will Warren balked twice — and the pitches he did deliver generally did not go well — in a 9-2 smacking by the woeful Rockies in front of 40,438 on Saturday in The Bronx, where the Yankees honored legends then played like Little Leaguers.
The sloppy Yankees (76-54) fell for just a ninth time in their past 27 games and could not seize any motivation from the pregame ceremony that paid tribute to Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, Mariano Rivera and the last pinstriped club to win a championship.
Motivation surely was not the problem for Warren, a rookie who has made one decent start and three rough ones to begin his MLB career.
His fourth big-league try was over far too quickly, perhaps in part because of jitters.
The righty lasted just three innings in which he allowed six runs (five earned) on seven hits, a walk, a pair of balks and, for good measure, a catcher’s interference charged to Austin Wells.
Warren never looked quite comfortable during an outing his ERA rose to 9.68.
Filling in for a rotation that is absent Luis Gil and Clarke Schmidt, Warren was tagged for at least one run in each of his frames.
The hole was dug in the first, when Ryan McMahon’s single prompted a play at the plate.
The throw from left fielder Alex Verdugo beat Ezequiel Tovar, who began the play at second, but the one-hopper bounced off Wells’ glove and enabled Tovar to score.
A walk, double and sacrifice fly scored another Rockies run in the second, but the game spiraled in the third.
After Tovar hammered a leadoff double to left, Warren slipped during his motion for a balk that moved the base runner to third.
Brenton Doyle followed with an RBI single but only had a short stay at first base: Warren, who in his minor league career has been charged with three balks over 353 ²/₃ innings, was called for a second balk in the inning on an apparent flinch.
Warren (whose stuff appeared to be fine, registering six strikeouts on a day he only recorded nine outs) bounced back to strike out McMahon and induced a fly out from Brendan Rodgers.
But with two outs, Michael Toglia’s swing made contact with Wells’ glove, putting two on for former Yankees prospect Jake Cave, who blooped an RBI single into left field.
Cave, who went 4-for-5, was dealt to the Twins in March 2018 in the swap that brought a very young Gil to the Yankees.
Nolan Jones then drilled a two-run double off the wall in left-center, which led to a crowd that had just welcomed a past champion to ridicule the current Yankees.
A poor afternoon from Warren halted the momentum from a staff that had pitched back-to-back shutouts. Mark Leiter Jr. entered and served up a fifth-inning homer to Toglia before Cave drilled a two-run shot in the seventh against Michael Tonkin.
The Yankees offense, meanwhile, made rookie Bradley Blalock (5 ¹/₃ innings of two-run ball) and the Colorado bullpen look like prime CC Sabathia (who received an especially loud greeting earlier).
Aaron Boone’s group was held to five hits and did not score after the fourth inning.
In the third, Jazz Chisholm Jr. smacked an RBI double to left-center for their first run. But with runners on second and third, Anthony Volpe flied out.
An inning later, Verdugo crushed his first home run since July 6 on the first day he was wearing new batting gloves.
Verdugo recently learned he was allergic to his previous pair, which explained the blisters on the back of his hands, and a new shipment of a pair that did not contain cobalt or chromate arrived Saturday.
Less encouraging, though, was just about everything else. The Aaron Judge and Juan Soto show took a day off, the duo combining to go 1-for-6 with a walk and a hit by pitch.
