As free agency looms, Soto powers Yankees to World Series

CLEVELAND -- The man who knows Juan Soto best didn't have a doubt.

Soto stood in the batter's box at Progressive Field. Two on, two out, tie game, 10th inning, another classic between the New York Yankees and Cleveland Guardians brewing in the American League Championship Series on Saturday. Another night of thrills and drama with the Yankees one win from their first World Series appearances in 15 years. Another opportunity for Soto to deliver under pressure. And Juan Soto Sr. knew, he just knew, his son would come through.

The trademark Soto shuffle after taking the first pitch for a ball.
