The Yankees continued their long, slow climb back to respectability Saturday afternoon, squeaking by the White Sox 2-1. The win was their sixth of this nine game homestand, and gives them the opportunity to win their third consecutive series with ace Masahiro Tanaka on the mound Sunday at 1:05 pm EST.
New York mounted their first and only successful rally in the second. Chase Headley walked with two outs and then managed to score from second on Aaron Hicks’s opposite field double off the wall in right.
