September 8-10, 2031: vs Chicago White Sox (3)
Game 1: 4-3 W (10). WP-Okuda (9-2). Starter-Khattak (6 6 1 1 1 6). HR-E.Green (14). Ogando blew a 3-1 lead in the 9th but Albies doubled in the 10th, went to third on a wild pitch and scored on Wander's sac fly to walk it off anyway. Caminero was 2-4 with 2 RBI.
Game 2: 3-0 W. WP-German (10-6, 7 3 0 0 2 9). S-R.Rodriguez (28). HR-Albies (16), Franco (13). German was dazzling and back-to-back jacks from Albies and Franco in the 4th was all the offense he needed.
Game 3: 8-5 W. WP-Acosta (5-3, 6 5 2 2 2 7). S-Ogando (9). HR-Caminero (18), Hardy (25). Junior Caminero had a massive 5-RBI game, going 3-4 with a solo homer (Hardy went back-to-back with him) and a double and it looked like they'd coast in this one with a 7-1 lead but the bullpen made it way too interesting but not fatal. As a result they pulled off an impressive sweep of the team that had the best record in MLB coming in.
Team record: 78-62. We did gain a game on Toronto to move 1 1/2 up in the division while the Yankees dropped 4 back. Next up: An off-day then the 70-70 Royals come to town for 3.
