ANAHEIM, Calif. -- An infield fly and interference call loomed large in a game for the second time in less than a week.
This time it was the New York Yankees and Juan Soto.
The Yankees had the bases loaded with no outs in the first inning Wednesday night against the Los Angeles Angels when they were done in by an unconventional double play.
Despite the strange start to the game, the Yankees were able to rally for a 2-1 victory.
"A tough way to start things when you load the bases there in the first inning and you've got a good pitcher on the ropes. But by the letter of the law it was probably the right call," said New York manager Aaron Boone, who was ejected.
