Aaron Judge and Gleyber Torres scored when a potential game-ending double play turned into a game-turning error as the New York Yankees rallied past the Pittsburgh Pirates 7-5 on Friday night on Roberto Clemente Day.
The Yankees trailed by two in the ninth before taking advantage of some shaky pitching by Colin Holderman and some sloppy defense by the Pirates.
Zach McAllister replaced Misiewicz and immediately hit Bryan Reynolds with the first pitch to load the bases. Hayes followed with a sharp grounder up the middle that rolled under the glove of New York second baseman Torres and into center field, scoring Bae and Josh Palacios. Cole was still in the nascent stages of his career then. He's one of the best pitchers in baseball now, though his pursuit of his first career Cy Young may have slowed just a bit after his shortest outing since June 25. Cole gave up two runs and six hits with three walks and four strikeouts.
