Aaron Hicks Gets The Start In Game 3
New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks is getting a rare postseason start and will hit ninth against the Astros and Gerrit Cole in Game 3.

Luis Severino Looking For Revenge Against Astros
New York Yankees starter Luis Severino will take the ball in Game 3 against the Astros in Yankee Stadium. Severino tossed four spotless innings in the ALDS and his stuff looked electric.

Aroldis Chapman Finishes Off Twins
New York Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman pitched 1 2/3 innings to sweep the Twins and catapult the Yankees into the ALCS. Chapman struck out three batters in his second appearance in the series.

New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres went 3-for-4 a home run, two doubles and three runs scored in the Yankees 5-1 series-clinching win over the Twins.

Gleyber Torres Gives Yankees 1-0 Lead With a Home Run
Jake Odorizzi looked great, striking out three of the first four batters. That was before Gleyber Torres connected and sent a 378-foot missile to the left-field seats. Both Severino and Odorizzi look to be on their game, so every run may be valuable as the Yankees go for the 3-0 sweep. Torres has a hit […]

Aaron Judge Reaches Base Four Times in Game 2 Win
It was a phenomenal day at the plate for Judge, who went 2-for-3 and walked twice. His only out came on a line drive to Max Kepler, so he's seeing the ball as well as he has all season long. He's not only hitting the ball hard, but he's taking close balls and didn't chase […]
Didi Gregorius Gives Yankees 7-0 Lead With Grand Slam
The Yankees were already up 3-0 and Didi put the kill shot in the Twins with a Grand Slam into the right-field short porch. He posed quite the celebration, taking his time to watch the homer and his teammates' reactions. Didi has struggled a bit of late, and was hitting eighth in this game. He […]
