Playoff series: Tied 1-1
The Yankees took an early lead on a Giancarlo Stanton 2-run HR in the bottom of the first inning of Game 2, but that’s all they could muster. RHP Jameson Taillon allowed 2 runs in the top of the 10th inning as the Guardians used 2 bloop singles and a double to the gap to generate 2 big runs.
The Guardians did what they have been doing all season. They have strong pitching, good work from the bullpen and timely hitting to steal one in the Bronx. It also helped the Cleveland pitching struck out home run king Aaron Judge 4 times in Game 2.
