The New York Yankees defeat the Los Angeles Dodgers 2–1 in the second game of a series at Yankee Stadium, avoiding a sweep, after Jazz Chisholm Jr. hits a late solo home run. Multiple reports say Chisholm’s homer comes in the eighth inning and provides the go-ahead run for New York. The Yankees’ win follows a Yankees lineup that has struggled without Aaron Judge, and Yahoo Sports reports that Chisholm’s season production is among the reasons the lineup has remained competitive despite Judge’s absence. The New York Post and Yahoo Sports describe the same decisive moment: Chisholm’s late homer that ultimately saves the Yankees from losing both games in the set. The scoring totals indicate New York is able to hold a one-run lead after Chisholm’s blast, finishing with a 2–1 victory. The Dodgers remain shut to that final score throughout the remainder of the game, as the Yankees protect their lead to prevent a doubleheader sweep.
