CLEVINN. – The goal of the 2024 World Series is just one win away for the New York Yankees, after defeating the Cleveland Guardians 8-6 in the fourth game of the American League Championship Series.
The New Yorkers, despite their suffering, are one victory away from returning to the World Series, which they have not played and won since 2009; They will look for her this Saturday on this same level in Cleveland in the fifth game.
Dominican Juan Soto opened the scoring with a two-run home run in the first inning of the game and an inning later, Austin Wells drove in the third run for the Yankees.
Then in the sixth, Giancarlo Stanton unleashed his power with a three-run homer that made it 6-2 for the Bombers.
It was Giancarlo Stanton’s fourth home run of the postseason, matching Aaron Judge and Babe Ruth with 15 home runs in the playoffs in a New York Yankees shirt.
Likewise, Stanton tied Carlos Beltran and Nelson Cruz as the players with the most home runs in their first 35 postseason games (15).
Cleveland came back to life with a three-run rally in the seventh and tied it in the bottom of the eighth, thanks to David Fry’s groundout.
The Yankees regained the lead in the eighth inning after Alex Verdugo drove in Jon Berti to make it 7-6 followed by a Gleyber Torres single to give the game the final tallies.
With the series at 3-1, the Yankees will try to wrap things up this Saturday in the (probably) final game of the season at Progressive Field.
The Guardians need to win the next two games to keep their hopes alive. The Ohioans need to improve their defense and make the most of their opportunities at bat if they want to surprise and extend the streak. /eldiaryony.com
