About 3 minutes reading time. CLEVELAND (AP) — Aaron Judge finally delivered the kind of postseason moment in October that turns Yankees into legends.

About 4 minutes reading time. NEW YORK (AP) — Clay Holmes is rediscovering his sinker at a pivotal time for the New York Yankees.

Holmes was 3-5 with a 3.14 ERA and 30 saves in 67 appearances.

The two-time All-Star allowed a single and two walks before Texas rookie Wyatt Langford hit a game-ending grand slam in a 7-4 loss Tuesday night that dropped the Yankees out of first place in the AL East for the first time in three weeks.
