June 25-27, 2024: vs LA Dodgers (3)
Game 1: 8-3 W. WP-McClanahan (10-3, 6 4 3 3 3 6). S-Kittredge (3). HR-Bregman (18), Arozarena (14), Vaughn (4). Bregman was 3-4 with the homer & 2 RBI, Vaughn 2-3 with the homer & 3 RBI. Also 3 more hits for Mead, who's up to 2nd in the AL in BA at .318.
Game 2: 8-9 L. LP-Rasmussen (3-3, 4 7 7 7 2 4). HR-Vazquez (3). Rasmussen gave up a 3-run homer to Freddie Freeman in the 1st and never recovered from there, but credit to the bats to nearly overcome a 7-0 deficit. Meadows had a bases-clearing double and Mead was 2-4 with a double and 2 RBI.
Game 3: 4-3 W. WP-Swanda (8-3, 7.1 3 0 0 2 10). S-Kittredge (4). HR-Soto (16). Swanda pitched the best game of his career, finally shattering the 5-inning glass ceiling he seemed to have. Soto knocked in a pair with a bases-loaded walk and homer, but they had to hang on as LA scored 3 times in the 9th and had a man on 3rd before Kittredge got a grounder to end the game.
Team record: 51-29. The Yankees split a pair in Colorado during our series so the lead is now up to 1 1/2 games. Next up: 3 games in Cincinnati, and a midseason review.
