Overview

  • New York beat Los Angeles 5-4 on Wednesday after Caballero lined a two-run double off closer Jordan Romano in the ninth.
  • Jazz Chisholm Jr.’s infield popup dropped between shortstop Zach Neto and third baseman Oswald Peraza on a miscommunication that kept the inning alive.
  • Austin Wells drew a walk, both runners were going on the pitch, and replay confirmed Wells’ slide home for the winning run.
  • The Angels had grabbed a 4-3 lead on three homers off Luis Gil, including Mike Trout’s two-run blast, before four Yankees relievers delivered four scoreless innings.
  • Romano took his second loss of the series after Monday’s blown save, and Caballero played a role in both walk-off wins.
