It’s top of the fifth inning, and the Yankees are trailing 2-0. Brandon Drury draws a walk, and up comes Tyler Austin. Austin who was looking for his first hit of the season wallops a Marco Estrada fastball to the upper deck of Rogers Centre to tie the game at two.
Yankee starter, CC Sabathia, gives the Yanks five solid innings, allowing just one earned run (Drury’s throwing error caused the other), striking out four batters before turning the contest over to the bullpen.
Entering the bottom of the sixth inning, the game is still tied. With Adam Warren now pitching, the UNC alum gets the first out on a grounder by Randal Grichuk.
