September 7 at Yankee Stadium in Bronx, NY
YES Network
A tight, tense game, as these teams often play was won by the Yankees 8-6.
New York hit three home runs - Alex Rodriguez & J.R. Murphy had the first two, but none was bigger than rookie Greg Bird's three-run home run to put the Yankees ahead for good in the seventh inning. Bird went down 0-2 to Brian Matusz, then crushed a weak breaking ball right down the middle into the Yankee bullpen to make it an 8-5 game.
* Here's how the top of the eighth inning went for New York reliever Dellin Betances:
A) walked the bases loaded
B) struck out the side
