Yanks add Leiter Jr. to roster in place of Hamilton
Briefly

Ian Hamilton, a New York Yankees reliever, was lost for the postseason due to a left calf injury sustained while covering first base during Game 3.
The Yankees replaced Hamilton with Mark Leiter Jr. after an independent review confirmed Hamilton's injury, making him ineligible for the World Series if they advance.
Hamilton, who had a solid regular season with a 3.82 ERA, had been sidelined for nearly three months earlier this season due to a strained right lat.
Leiter Jr., who had a rough 4.98 ERA with the Yankees since joining from the Cubs, has yet to see postseason action in his career.
