The Yankees finished the regular season with a 6-4 win over the Pirates. Next stop, playoff baseball in October.
Trent Grisham had two of the Yankees' five hits in their 6-4 win over the Pirates on Sunday, making just his third start of September.
What was happening on the out-of-town scoreboard in right-center at Yankee Stadium throughout the afternoon was arguably more important, dictating who the Yankees could play in the American League Division Series after their first-round bye. The Tigers, meanwhile, head to the other side of the bracket in the AL. They’ll play the Astros in the first round with the No. 2 seed Guardians looming.
In Schmidt’s defense, the conditions were brutal for a pitcher on Sunday. Luis Gil — the other starter in consideration to start in that round — dealt with something similar in Saturday’s loss. He ended up giving up a career-high four home runs.
