Stanton and Rizzo help Yankees rally in 9th inning for 2
NEW YORK (AP) — Giancarlo Stanton hit a tying double in the ninth inning and Anthony Rizzo followed with a game-winning single to give the New York Yankees a 2-1 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Friday night.
Shut out on two hits for eight innings, the Yankees got four in a row off closer Jason Foley (2-1) to start and finish the bottom of the ninth in a heartbeat.
“If we’ve got outs left, we’ve got time,” Stanton said.
Aaron Judge bounced a single through the middle and advanced to second base on a surprise bunt single toward third by cleanup batter Alex Verdugo.
“It just kind of popped in my head,” Verdugo said. “Just saw it was there and just kind of went with it. ... I think it definitely caught everybody off guard.”
Stanton, who struck out his previous three times up, lined an opposite-field double into the right-field corner on a 97 mph sinker, leaving runners at second and third.
