Aaron Judge's Elimination Game Heroics Heralded as Yankees Advance to ALCS vs. Astros

The New York Yankees survived a stiff test from the Cleveland Guardians to advance to the American League Championship Series for the first time since 2019.

Thanks to the big bats of Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton, the Yankees earned a 5-1 victory in Game 5 over the Guardians on Tuesday at Yankee Stadium.

Stanton got the scoring started in the first inning with a three-run homer off Aaron Civale. Judge joined the fun with a solo shot in the bottom of the second inning off Sam Hentges.
