Jazz Chisholm Jr. zipped all the way home from first base on Austin Wells' tiebreaking single in the eighth inning, and the New York Yankees extended their season Wednesday night with a 4-3 victory over the Boston Red Sox in Game 2 of their AL Wild Card Series. Unhappy he was left out of the starting lineup in the opener, Chisholm also made a critical defensive play at second base that helped the Yankees send the best-of-three playoff to a decisive Game 3.

Game 1 winners go for sweep in Wild Card Series: The Tigers, Cubs, Red Sox, and Dodgers took home victories in Game 1 of their respective Wild Card series yesterday, and each of those clubs will be going for the sweep today. will kick things off at 1:08pm local time today for Detroit, while the Guardians will counter with Tanner Bibee with their season on the line. Two hours later (2:08pm local time), the Padres will hang the hopes of their season on Dylan Cease. The Cubs will counter with an opener in the form of right-hander Andrew Kittredge. Kittredge threw a scoreless inning for Chicago in Game 1 of the series yesterday and is expected to turn things over to lefty Shota Imanaga for the bulk of the game. Turning back to the AL, the Yankees will have to overcome Red Sox starter Brayan Bello with southpaw Carlos Rodon on the mound if they're going to live to see Game 3, and the Reds' last stand against the Dodgers will come with Zack Littell on the mound against Yoshinobu Yamamoto.

It felt kind of surreal,

Chisholm has clearly turned the page on the 39-game drought that saw him go without a steal, achieving seven stolen bases in his last seven attempts.

Aaron Judge topped the AL's vote tally and is guaranteed one of the outfield slots for the Midsummer Classic, marking the seventh time he's been an All-Star.

Jazz Chisholm Jr. explained that playing at '70%' helps maintain his health and performance, emphasizing a more tempered approach to the game.
