In a high-scoring affair at American Family Field, the New York Yankees found themselves on the wrong end of a 7-6 scoreline against the Milwaukee Brewers after 11 grueling innings. Despite receiving offensive firepower from the likes of Juan Soto, Alex Verdugo, and Trent Grisham, the Yankees’ bullpen ultimately let them down in the late stages of the game.
The Yankees had their reliable closer, Clay Holmes, at their disposal for the ninth inning.
In a riveting extra-inning showdown, José Ramírez delivered a game-winning RBI single in the 11th inning, propelling the Cleveland Guardians to a thrilling 10-7 victory over the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday night at Fenway Park.
With the game knotted at 7-7, Ramírez’s clutch hit broke the deadlock, driving in the go-ahead run with no outs and runners on first and second. The Guardians then capitalized on the momentum, scoring two more insurance runs on Estevan Florial’s two-run single, putting the game out of reach for the Red Sox.
The Chicago White Sox were inches away from securing their first series win of the 2024 season on Wednesday, but a pair of squandered scoring chances in the 8th and 9th innings came back to haunt them. Despite a monster day at the plate from Gavin Sheets, the Sox fell 7-6 in extras to the Cleveland Guardians.
Sheets was a one-man wrecking crew, going 3-for-5 with a double, a three-run homer, and 5 RBIs.
