Coming off a long, 13-inning marathon Friday night, the Yankees opted not to take batting practice on the field Saturday afternoon.The Yankees put on an aerial display against Cubs right-hander Matt Swarmer,Aaron Judge, who was showered with MVP chants throughout the game, led the way by hitting his MLB-leading 23rd and 24th homers of the year.
There was no sweating out the late innings on Saturday, though, nor a lack of big hits. They were missing in Friday’s 2-1, 13-inning win, when the Yankees went 0-for-18 with runners in scoring position and left 15 men on base before Trevino won it with a walk-off single. Stanton and Torres then drilled back-to-back home runs in the fourth inning to make it 3-0. Stanton’s homer got out in a hurry, a bullet to left field that jumped off his bat at 119.8 mph — the hardest-hit ball in MLB this season, according to Statcast. It was hit so hard it caromed off a sign below the second deck and landed back on the field.
