Kansas City. Gerrit Cole looked like a postseason ace on Thursday, limiting the Royals to just one run in seven innings, and the New York Yankees beat Kansas City 3-1 to advance to the American League Championship Series. .
Cole, a six-time All-Star, allowed six hits scattered throughout his work, which included four strikeouts, before turning the ball over to the bullpen, which dominated a tense division series. Clay Holmes completed the eighth inning perfectly and Luke Weaver sailed calmly in the ninth, to extend the streak of Yankee relievers without allowing a run in this postseason to 15 and two-thirds innings.
New York will face either Cleveland or Detroit in the ALCS, which begins Monday night at Yankee Stadium.
The Dominican Juan Soto, the Venezuelan Gleyber Torres and Giancarlo Stanton – the figure of the third game – drove in runs for the Yankees, who secured a ticket to their fourth Championship Series in eight years. And not to change, they achieved it as visitors.
They won 50 away games in the regular season, their most in 21 years.
For the Yankees, Venezuelan Gleyberr Torres was 2 for 5 with one run scored and one RBI. Dominican Juan Soto was 1 for 4 with an RBI. Mexican Alex Verdugo 4-0 with one scored.
For the Royals, the Venezuelans Salvador Pérez 4-0, Maikel García 3-1. Cuban Yuli Gurriel 4-0. Puerto Rican MJ Meléndez 3-0.
