Yankees blow early 3-run lead, fall to Reds in 11 innings

Spencer Steer and pinch-hitter Gavin Lux hit run-scoring singles in the 11th inning and Cincinnati rallied from a three-run deficit for a 5-4 victory over the New York Yankees on Tuesday night after Chase Burns made an impressive major league debut for the Reds.

Aaron Judge scored on Connor Phillips' wild pitch in the 11th for a 4-3 lead.

With Matt McLain as the automatic runner, Elly De La Cruz led off against Mark Leiter Jr. (4-4) with an infield single. Spencer Steer hit a tying single as De La Cruz jogged to second, apparently thinking the game was over.
