"With nothing less than the season at stake, Chisholm made a diving defensive gem that prevented the Red Sox from scoring the go-ahead run in the seventh inning, then later hustled around from first base on Austin Wells' two-out single to deliver the winning run in eighth, giving the Yankees a 4-3 victory before a re-energized sellout crowd of 47,993 in the Bronx."
"After Boone sat him Tuesday against Red Sox ace lefty Garrett Crochet, Chisholm went home, grabbed some living-room couch time and took on the world in MLB The Show using his hand-picked team, the New York Aliens (we didn't ask about the name). The Aliens are a loaded team, not unlike his $320 million Yankees, and Chisholm - who plays under his own name - smacked around his on-line opposition until about 3 a.m."
Chisholm showed visible frustration after a Game 1 benching but responded decisively in Game 2. He made a diving defensive play in the seventh to deny the Red Sox the go-ahead run, then hustled home on Austin Wells' two-out single to score the winning run in the eighth. The Yankees won 4-3 before 47,993 fans. Manager Aaron Boone called Chisholm a gamer and affirmed their relationship. Chisholm later relaxed by playing MLB The Show with a hand-picked team, dominating online opponents until about 3 a.m., then returned focused for the game.
