Losing is Michael Schmidtnever fun. Occasionally, it's even worse − as New York Yankees fans know quite well these days.

With the team on its way to losing a ninth consecutive game, Yankees broadcaster Suzyn Waldman inadvertently spoke for everyone on Tuesday night when a live mic coming back from a commercial caught her saying, "God, this is boring."

The incident came in the top of the fifth inning of what would eventually be a 2-1 defeat to the Washington Nationals that extended the team's longest losing skid in 41 years. (The audio was captured by the website Awful Announcing.)

New York managed just two hits in the entire game, which certainly helped prove Waldman's point. However, the team was able to keep its losing streak from reaching double digits on Wednesday, defeating the Nationals 9-1 behind three home runs from Aaron Judge.
