NEW YORK -- It came down to a missed opporunity, some sloppy play and too much Gerrit Cole
Cole continued his domination of Cleveland. He’s 3-0 against them this year, including two regular-season wins. He’s 3-0 with 1.33 ERA against them in three postseason starts. Cal Quantrill took the loss in his first postseason start. He came into the game 11-0 in his last 17 starts in the regular season. He allowed homers to Harrison Bader and Anthony Rizzo in five-plus innings.
Gonzalez threw to Amed Rosario at second, who threw to Josh Naylor, who tagged the befuddled Donaldson before he could get back to first. New York stretched the lead to 4-1 on Rizzo’s two-run homer in the sixth. Quantrill, after striking out Aaron Judge in his two at-bats, started the sixth by walking him. Judge, who set the AL record with 62 homers this season, showed off his speed by stealing second and going to third on a throwing error by catcher Austin Hedges.
