The New York Yankees hope to take the series from the Chicago White Sox in a Sunday matinee.
It took some late-inning heroics, but the New York Yankees managed to pull off the 7-5 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Saturday. Joey Gallo’s tenth-inning home run, his second of the game, put the Yankees ahead for good. Aaron Judge also went deep, and Albert Abreu worked around Zack Britton’s struggles to get the save.
The Tampa Bay Rays lost, so the Yankees remain third in the AL East and 6.5 games back. In the Wild Card, they trail the Boston Red Sox by 2.5 games.
