Andujar, warts and all, reminds why he’s so valuable to Yankees

CHICAGO — Redemption?

Eh. More of a reminder.

Redemption would be Miguel Andujar making a game-saving play at third base. Instead, on Tuesday night, the Yankees’ rookie reminded the team’s fans of why he has won his front office’s considerable support.

Left undecided for now is whether Andujar can play well enough with his glove to be a full-time, two-way player.

Andujar slammed a game-tying home run and added a game-winning single to lead the Yankees over the terrible White Sox, 4-3 in 13 innings, and avoid what would’ve been a demoralizing loss at Guaranteed Rate Field (worst ballpark name ever).
