The Yankees won ugly.
Almost nothing happened offensively for the Yankees before their final four outs, but they were eventually able to clog up the bases and win today’s matinee with a walk-off single. DJ LeMahieu came off the bench in the ninth for a pinch-hit appearance, bounced a ball past a drawn-in five-man infield, and New York came away with a victory in a game that was otherwise super sleepy.
This was honestly a tough one to sit through for until the fireworks later on. Aaron Judge is in a bit of a slump, which happens, but with no DJ starting and Gleyber Torres coming back to level after the start he had, the lineup gets pretty thin.
