Following a pair of stirring comeback wins, and what began unfolding as a third, and the Yankees’ 10th of the season, this one ended with remorse
“I think we’re in a good spot,” Judge said, “some battles back and forth. We don’t want to come in here and split the series. But they’re one of the best teams in baseball, and we battled back and forth.”
These last three games were heavyweight slugfests akin to George Foreman versus Ron Lyle, with one team scoring a knockdown, and the other getting up and scoring one of its own. Anthony Volpe’s two-run HR in the eighth off Kevin Kelley made it Rays 8, Yankees 7 after Lowe’s grand slam had made it Rays 8, Yankees 4.Judge’s RBI single meant that the rampaging Rizzo had represented the tying run at the plate in the seventh against Kelly, but Rizzo whiffed on a high outside four-seamer.
“Just how intense it’s been, it’s awesome,” Bader said. “It’s just a blast playing against those guys.”The Rays won four of the seven games this past week.Oswaldo Cabrera homered first and the Yanks have now hit 46 HRs in 26 games at the Stadium. They needed that 47th.A shame it’s not until July 31.
