Yankees force decisive Game 3 on Chisholm's mad dash home
NEW YORK -- Jazz Chisholm Jr. zipped all the way home from first base on Austin Wells' tiebreaking single in the eighth inning, and the New York Yankees extended their season Wednesday night with a 4-3 victory over the Boston Red Sox in Game 2 of their AL Wild Card Series.
Unhappy he was left out of the starting lineup in the opener, Chisholm also made a critical defensive play at second base that helped the Yankees send the best-of-three playoff to a decisive Game 3 on Thursday night in the Bronx.
"What a game. I mean, it has been two great games, these first two," New York manager Aaron Boone said. "A lot of big plays on both sides."
