Tyler Mercado walked, stole second, advanced to third on a base hit and scored as the ball got away from Puerto Rico's catcher. ![]() The Netherlands scored the go-ahead run in the bottom of the fourth. Gonzalez displayed a 150-kilometer (or 93 mile) per hour heater to close the third. Left fielder Harold Laracuente helped Puerto Rico's starter Ibrahim Gonzalez get through the first with a diving catch on Jamie Beerman's deep fly. He proved that power is still a key part of his game with 417-foot shot to center to knot this game up at 7-7.After losing the final two games of the Opening Round, including the completion of the game against in the morning, Puerto Rico defeated the Netherlands thanks to an impressive pitching staff and timely hitting. Regrettably for Loáisiga, that batter was Moncada, playing in his third game of 2022 after missing the first month with an oblique injury. The 2021 relief ace was once again not at his best, and walked the chase-happy Anderson to bring the tying run to the plate. García reach on an infield single that deflected off Lucas Luetge’s glove, and Boone tabbed Jonathan Loáisiga to relieve him. In the home half of the seventh, however, the White Sox came storming back. The next few innings were quiet outside of a decidedly-unquiet 456-foot tank job of a solo shot by Judge to put the Yankees up, 7-4. He’ll probably return to Triple-A tomorrow since they’ll want a fresh reliever, and that’s A-OK. ![]() All told though, four innings of four-run ball was about adequate for Gil against good bats like the ones in the Chicago order. Not one of his six pitches to Anderson fell in the zone. Gil was only saved by Anderson swinging at another bad one for strike three. García hit into a force out, but an extremely wild pitch with Tim Anderson up scored Pollock. Manager Aaron Boone decided to stick with Gil rather than go to the similarly-wild Miguel Castro warming in the bullpen, and the results were mixed. With one out, Gavin Sheets walked and Pollock and Engel knocked back-to-back singles to load the bases. The White Sox got one back in the fourth as Gil lost his command, but the Yankees should be thankful that they didn’t get more. It was a 6-3 ballgame, and there’s little doubt that Cease has never left a double-digit-strikeout game more disappointed than he did during this strange night. Kyle Higashioka reached on a two-out single and LeMahieu doubled him in with a shot to left. Next up is a familiar face: Yankees legend Yogi Berra (and former White Sox slugger Carlos Lee) at 358.Ĭease departed the game in the fourth after notching his 11th punchout, but not before giving up a sixth run. 356 put Stanton at 89th all-time, passing Greg Vaughn. The muscle man obliged, smashing another opposite-field homer to give the Yankees a 5-3 lead.Ĭareer homer No. Stanton was up next and Cease made the mistake of leaving a 96.4-mph fastball down the heart of the plate. It skipped away from Adam Engel, allowing Judge to tie the game and Rizzo to notch his first triple in pinstripes. In the top of the third, Aaron Judge worked a one-out walk and Anthony Rizzo lined one past José Abreu and into the right-field corner. However, the Bombers also continued to plate runs against the 26-year-old right-hander. After a foul out, AJ Pollock doubled down the left-field line to cut the two-run lead in half, and Leury García’s soft hit to right found grass, scoring both runners to make it 3-2, Chicago (though a pickoff by Gil ended the inning).Ĭease continued to fan Yankees left and right in fact, all of his first eight outs recorded came via the K. Luis Robert singled to begin the inning and Gil sailed four pitches nowhere close to the zone, allowing Yasmani Grandal to walk. Making his first MLB start of 2022, Luis Gil looked electric in the first inning by striking out two hitters in a perfect frame, but the shaky form he showed toward the conclusion of his 2021 reemerged in the second. Stanton’s two-run bomb put the Yankees in front, 2-0.
