The New York Yankees seemed to be on holiday mode when playing their game against the San Diego Padres as the team gave up two colossal errors to give up a little-league homer.

With eight-hole hitter Jose Azocar at bat and Ha-Seong Kim at second, Yankees starter Gerrit Cole toed the rubber at the top of the second as the game was tied.

But two mental errors from the Yankees fielders allowed both runs to score as Azocar blooped a single to center.

Center fielder Harrison Bader charged the ball and tossed it home to try and prevent Kim from crossing the plate.

However, Bader put too much on his throw and sailed it high and far over the head of catcher Kyle Higashioka.
