NEW YORK — A walk-off? Nope. This time, it was a run-off.
Chase Headley's mad dash home from third base on a passed ball with two outs in the bottom of the ninth gave the Yankees a 2-1 win over the Rangers at Yankee Stadium on Thursday, their second straight wild victory in as many days.
On Wednesday night, Brian McCann belted a three-run homer to tie the game and then Didi Gregorius won it with a game-ending, two-run blast.
Headley raced home when righty Texas reliever Tony Barnette's 1-1 fastball to Jacoby Ellsbury skipped past catcher Robinson Chirinos and all the way to the backstop.
