He hesitated a moment then added, “Take two.” Oswaldo Cabrera and Josh Donaldson are unable to come up with Jose Ramirez’s bloop double in the 10th inning of the Yankees’ 4-2 loss to the Guardians. “We have to go into their house and take one,” Stanton said. The combination delivered a 4-2, 10-inning win that tied the best-of-five at one game apiece. The Guardians played to their strengths - putting the ball in play until something positive fell and getting a winnable game to their power pen. They had a nine-game postseason winning streak against the division through their Game 1 triumph Tuesday.īut a funny thing happened on the way to Cleveland. The Yankees have eliminated an AL Central team (Cleveland or Minnesota) four times in four tries since 2017. The Yankees had a two-run lead and - knowing recent history - that felt like a prelude to gaining a two-nothing lead in this series. In the bottom half, Giancarlo Stanton went from furious at home-plate ump Jeremie Rehak for missing what should have been ball four with two outs and one on to regaining his composure and hitting the subsequent full-count Shane Bieber fastball for a homer. Nestor Cortes went from two on and no out to open the first to a nine-pitch scoreless inning. An AL Central team had shown up in front of the Yankees in October and there was inevitability over where this was heading. Not just of Game 1, but also of the past six years.
