Ellsbury, Gregorius Homer In the 7th, Yanks Beat Dodgers 3-0

NEW YORK -- Jacoby Ellsbury and Didi Gregorius homered on consecutive pitches with one out in the seventh inning, lifting the New York Yankees to a 3-0 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night.

Ellsbury capped a nine-pitch at-bat by lifting a full count curveball from Ross Stripling (4-7) into the second deck in right field. Gregorius batted for Ronald Torreyes and sent Stripling's fastball into the right-center field seats.

It was Ellsbury's ninth home run and fifth in his last 22 games. For Gregorius, it was his 18th home run and first as a pinch hitter.
