Yankees clinch postseason berth on Caballero's walk-off vs. White Sox | amNewYork
"The Yankees (89-68) moved within one game of the American League East-leading Toronto Blue Jays, who fell to the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday. Trailing 2-1 entering the bottom of the ninth, momentum from Anthony Volpe and Austin Wells' lead-off singles was stymied when Trent Grisham bounced into a double play. But Aaron Judge was intentionally walked for the second time on the night, Cody Bellinger walked, and Volpe scored on a wild pitch to tie the game."
"Caballero then worked a nine-pitch at-bat against Chicago reliever Brandon Eisert before blooping the game-winning single to center, which scored Judge from second. Yankees starter Luis Gil put forth a strong outing in his audition for a postseason rotation spot, allowing two runs on four hits in six innings of work. But his 1-0 lead created by Wells' RBI double in the second inning was canceled out when he yielded a two-run home run in the sixth to Colson Montgomery."
