The New York Yankees beat the Toronto Blue Jays 4-3 on Sunday, with Ben Rice hitting a tiebreaking home run in the 10th inning to avoid a three-game sweep. The decisive swing comes after the game is tied late and the Yankees take the lead with extra-inning offense.
Earlier in the contest, Rice also hits a two-run homer off Braydon Fisher, which provides New York with a lead. In the later innings, Tim Hill allows an RBI single to Andrés Giménez in the bottom of the 10th but prevents further damage. Hill earns the save, despite the late run by Toronto.
Outlets describe the moment with different emphasis. The New York Post highlights a fielding error by Rice that helps enable Toronto’s tying run in the ninth, followed by Rice’s quick response with the game-winning home run. Other coverage focuses more directly on the decisive 10th-inning homer, the timing of the late tying action, and the final pitching outcome for the Yankees’ win.
