Jos Ramrez doubles in 3 straight at-bats as the Guardians beat the Yankees 9-4
By LARRY FLEISHER
Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP) --- Jos Ramrez doubled in three straight at-bats and drove in
the go-ahead run against Cam Schlittler in the fifth inning before the
Cleveland Guardians pulled away for a 9-4 victory over the New York Yankees on
Tuesday night.
Kyle Manzardo launched a two-run homer off Schlittler (7-3) in the fourth and
rookie Travis Bazzana hit a three-run double off Camilo Doval in the eighth.
Bazzana and Brayan Rocchio each had a sacrifice fly for the Guardians, who
totaled 12 hits and scored their most runs since May 17.
Paul Goldschmidt homered and knocked in all four runs for the Yankees, who lost
for only the second time in eight games. They played without slugger Aaron
Judge, who has a bone bruise in his upper right rib that is causing pain in his
right shoulder.
The three-time MVP missed his first game this season. He underwent testing
Monday that revealed the bruise and was consulting with a team doctor on
Tuesday.
Ramrez entered the game in an 8-for-45 skid but doubled in the fourth, fifth
and seventh. His first double came two batters before Manzardo homered into the
right-center seats for a 3-2 lead.
Goldschmidt's two-run single put New York ahead 4-3 in the bottom half, but the
Guardians loaded the bases in the fifth after Patrick Bailey reached on an
error by third baseman Amed Rosario and Rocchio was hit in the hand by a pitch.
After a sacy fly by Bazzana tied it, Ramrez laced a 2-2 curveball over leaping
first baseman Ben Rice and down the right-field line for a 5-4 lead.
Ramrez added his second RBI double to score Rocchio in the seventh. It was the
fifth time in his career Ramrez doubled three times and first since Aug. 26,
2024.
Schlittler allowed five runs --- four earned --- and five hits in a season-low
4 1/3 innings.
Goldschmidt hit a two-run homer in the third to give the Yankees a 2-1 lead.
Cleveland starter Joey Cantillo permitted four runs and six hits in four
innings. Five relievers followed, and Colin Holderman (4-1) stranded a runner
in the fifth for the win.
