New York YankeesvsCleveland Guardians
NYY 3/CLE 2
Things to say
Yankees edged the Guardians 3-2 at Progressive Field.
01
Yanks took it 3-2 in Cleveland. Tight one all the way. Guardians had chances and just couldn't cash in.
02
key player
Bombers' bats were quiet but it didn't matter — pitching carried it. Whoever they ran out there got into his stuff early.
03
hot take
Cleveland's offense is a problem. Two runs at home against a beatable rotation? That lineup needs a bat.
04
deep cut
Guardians are 37-32 now — they've been hovering around .500 for weeks. The bullpen keeps bailing out a flat offense.
05
exit
Yankees keep stacking these one-run wins. Tell you what, I wanna see them in a getaway day spot next.
The recap
Yankees squeaked one out in Cleveland, 3-2, in the kind of low-scoring grinder where every baserunner feels like a rally. No standout names on the wire, but a one-run game at Progressive Field usually comes down to the bullpen holding serve in the late innings — and New York's did just enough.
Guardians drop another close one at home and slip to 37-32, while the Yankees keep humming along at 40-26.
