The Yankees took the first two games of the series, aiming to take over the division lead from the Orioles in the upcoming finale. Austin Wells also contributed with a three-run homer in the first inning, setting the tone for the game. Luis Gil pitched a strong game, allowing only one run and five hits in six innings.
