For two years, it seemed that the Yankees could always find a way to beat the Orioles in the Bronx.
And on Wednesday, it was only a matter of time before the Yankees got 13th in a row at home against Baltimore.
But a costly mistake by Gleyber Torres, a shock hit allowed by Chad Green and a good throw from Anthony Santander’s right field added a 4-3 loss and 11 Yankees innings.
Sisco’s only chance to leave Green in the 11th automatic runner Rio Ruiz scored from third place to put the Orioles ahead for good.
Brett Gardner pushed Gio Urshela into the third final of the 11th before DJ LeMahieu, with an outside, threw a flying ball into the shallow right. Urshela tried to score, but was sent off by Santander.
In the last inning, Green had apparently escaped trouble when he managed to get Pedro Severino to land with Torres with Santander in the third and two out. But Torres made another bad play and finished off the throw to Jay Bruce at first. Bruce could not choose and Santander scored the first goal by mistake.
Before the game, manager Aaron Boone defended Torres’ performance on defense after the short field had made another erroneous play on Tuesday.
Torres was rescued at the bottom of the tenth inning when Kyle Higashioka picked on the right and pinch runner Tyler Wade ran home with the tie tied, but the Yankees were unable to score on the ball. the eleventh.
They had left behind a run towards the bottom of the eighth, after leaving nine runners despite hitting the ball hard all night.
But with two out and no one put in, Gary Sánchez scored with a left-footed shot and the ball was misinterpreted by Ryan Mountcastle.
Sanchez was replaced by pinch runner Mike Tauchman. This play immediately bore fruit when Urshela doubled to the left center and Tauchman ran home, just under Pedro Severino’s tag on the plate.
He tied the game at 2-2, and Gardner followed him with a hit to the field, sending Urshela to third, but LeMahieu came out on the ground to finish the entry.
Aroldis Chapman started the ninth after Nick Nelson, Darren O’Day and Jonathan Loaisiga had combined for 3 3 ¹ / sense relay innings.
Chapman hit the side with order.
The bullpen shone in relief from Jameson Taillon, who first started in nearly two years, after Tommy John’s second surgery. He was excellent to start the game, retiring the first nine batters he faced, while the Yankees constantly threatened Baltimore left John Means.
At the bottom of the first, Torres tied at a single start and went into the third with Giancarlo Stanton’s strong shot in the middle, but Clint Frazier lined up in the center for the final exit, after LeMahieu and Aaron Hicks had done the same before entry.
They burst into the third.
Gardner opened with a single on the right side, and LeMahieu followed with a liner down the center, giving the Yankees runners the first and second with no one outside. After Torres gossiped, the Hicks fighters hit the center again, taking Gardner home for the first run of the game. The concentration ended when Stanton played a double play.
The Orioles tied the game shortly after, as Cedric Mullins led the fourth with a long homer in the stands of the right field. He was the first striker to arrive against Taillon, who then eliminated Trey Mancini for the first outing. But Santander followed him and deepened Taillon again, this time in the Yankees bullring, center-right, to give Baltimore a 2-1 lead.
Taillon retired with two outs in the fifth, replaced by Nelson. Taillon allowed two runs and made seven and didn’t walk a beat.
The Yankees tried to take Taillon to the bottom of the fifth, with singles from Torres and Stanton (this measured 115 mph), but Dillon Tate, a former Yankee prospect, got Frazier to land on the ground. threat.
In the sixth, Sanchez doubled the left field line with an outside and passed to the third with Urshela’s ball in the center, but was caught when Gardner went out.
LeMahieu started the seventh with a hit, but Torres flew to the right and Hicks and Stanton blew a blow, hearing Stanton from the small crowd.
