BRONX, N.Y. — There are a lot of ways to frame the series split between the New York Yankees and Houston Astros. There were some definite 2001 World Series vibes, in that the Yankees didn’t hit much but got big hits when they needed to. The Yankees batted .123, which according to Stats by STATS, is the lowest average in a four-game series by a team that didn’t lose the series in American League history. New York also never had a lead in the series until a pair of walk-offs. Incredible.
Three up:
Aaron Judge: Judge had the big walk-0ff single Thursday and a walk-off homer on Sunday.
