Game Summary
New York Yankees defeated Minnesota Twins 8-3. The Yankees rode a six-run eighth inning and three home runs while their pitching limited Minnesota to three runs, just one of them earned. José Caballero went 2-for-4 with a homer, two RBIs and two runs, Aaron Judge hit a three-run shot and drove in three, and Ben Rice had a two-RBI single as part of the big eighth. The turning point came in the top of the eighth when Caballero’s run-scoring single and Rice’s follow-up knock set the stage for Judge’s three-run homer, turning a tie into a decisive lead. Will Warren worked 5.2 strong innings (six strikeouts, no earned runs) and John Schreiber closed 1.1 scoreless innings for the save.
