, but the Yankees will have to wait at least one more day to secure home field advantage through the ALCS.
Their primary directive over the next week, though, is setting themselves up as well as possible for the ALDS, with Gerrit Cole set to pitch Game 1 and Rodon perhaps in Game 2.The Yankees are still trying Jasson Dominguez out in left field, as they rested Aaron Judge, Austin Wells and Anthony Rizzo, with Alex Verdugo in right, Jose Trevino behind the plate and Trent Grisham in center.
Rodon was aided by two fantastic running catches on deep fly balls to center by Grisham, both off the bat of Nick Yorke, as well as Trevino throwing out a pair of attempted base-stealers. The Yankees loaded the bases later in the inning, but Verdugo popped out to center and Anthony Volpe’s rocket went right to Billy Cook in center.
