After a 2-hour, 25-minute delay, things got underway at 3:30-ish PM in Yankee Stadium this afternoon, in the second of three between the New York Yankees and visiting Washington Nationals.
Max Scherzer dominated Yankee hitters, with a total of 14 strikeouts from 25 batters faced over 7 1⁄3 strong, in which he gave up just a run on a solo home run and two hits total, but the 2-1 lead he left the game with was blown by Brad Hand in the ninth, and this one went into extra innings where, Trea Turner drove in the free runner to make it 3-2, but the home team answered with one in the bottom of the tenth, and then walked off in the bottom of the eleventh on a Gleyber Torres’ bases-loaded dribbler toward third base, 4-3 final.
