"RHP Luis Gil's August ends with a solid outing but disappointing finish. He threw 98 pitches (63 strikes), yielded two runs on four hits, struck out seven and walked two in 5.1 IP. Gil's sixth-inning solo home run allowed to Colson Montgomery was costly, though, squandering New York's 2-1 lead with one out in the sixth inning and leaving the bullpen to sort through the final few frames."
"Captain Aaron Judge's second home run in as many days, a first-inning solo shot that put New York on the board, ties him with legendary catcher Yogi Berra among all-time Yankees at 358 career home runs. Judge's 3-for-5 afternoon, which included his third-inning double and fifth-inning single, sees him slashing .324/.443/.674 with 43 home runs and 97 RBI in 127 games this season."
"LHP Tim Hill allowing the go-ahead home run, a solo shot by Lenyn Sosa, with two outs in the eighth inning was the turning point for New York's late-game collapse. Hill (2.93 ERA, 1.09 WHIP), who allowed a run on three hits in this past Friday's 10-2 win, is trending the wrong way. The Yankees' win streak snaps at seven games, and the recent victorious trend closed the gap with the Toronto Blue Jays in the AL East,"
The White Sox scored three unanswered runs in the second half to beat the Yankees 3-2 at Rate Field. Luis Gil allowed two runs on four hits over 5.1 innings, including a sixth-inning solo homer to Colson Montgomery that erased New York's 2-1 lead. Aaron Judge hit a first-inning solo to tie Yogi Berra at 358 career homers and finished 3-for-5, improving his season slash line to .324/.443/.674 with 43 homers and 97 RBI. Tim Hill surrendered the go-ahead eighth-inning solo by Lenyn Sosa. New York's seven-game win streak ended and the loss dims wild-card momentum.
