Yankees 5, Twins 7: Worst. Ninth inning. Ever.

J.A. Happ grew himself a beard of sorrow that reflects the kind of season he’s having, but it was Aroldis Chapman who was hanging his head after tonight’s game. The Yankees went to the ninth in complete control, up 5-3, and Chapman came in for a save opportunity. He had one of the worst outings of his career, giving up four runs on two home runs without recording a single out as the Twins salvaged a game from the Yankees, 7-5.

Josh Donaldson took Chapman deep to tie the game after a leadoff single in the ninth inning.
