Over the last week or so, the Yankees made a habit of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Just yesterday, the Yankees managed to lose two games that they looked completely poised to win. At last, the roles were reversed, with the Mets finding a strange way to lose this afternoon. The Yankees finally stopped the bleeding, securing a bizarre walkoff victory at the hands of old friend Dellin Betances.
Winner of the Game
Everyone meet J.A. Happ, professional stopper. With the Yankees mired in a dreadful seven-game losing streak, the team turned to an unlikely hero to put on the brakes.
