New York Yankees open AL Championship Series at home against Cleveland or Detroit on Monday night

“It’s just like the ferocious jungle cat just comes out me,” he said during the clubhouse celebration after Thursday night’s AL Division Series clincher in Kansas City, speaking on the Yes Network.

Yankees relievers didn’t allow an earned run in 15 2/3 innings against the Royals. It was the third-most innings without an earned run in a postseason series after 18 1/3 by Minnesota against Toronto in the 1991 ALCS and 17 by the Los Angeles Dodgers against the Chicago Cubs in the 2017 NLCS. Holmes had been the closer since supplanting Aroldis Chapman early in 2022 season, but the two-time All-Star blew 13 of 43 save chances, tying the Yankees record shared by Goose Gossage and Dave Righetti.
