Jazz Chisholm Jr. smashed a late winner in the eighth to secure a tight 2–1 win over the Dodgers on Sunday, turning a one-all draw into Yankees glory. The game-changing blow split their doubleheader at Dodger Stadium, with Chisholm’s strike sealing victory late.
Manager Aaron Boone called the hit the difference in a hard-fought contest, saying Chisholm’s bat rose to the moment. After the final out, Chisholm admitted he drew extra fire from a recent Knicks parade and now craves a World Series ring. Local reports captured his pep talk, while rivals hinted the brass may eye a swap despite the standout effort.
Even after this big frame, the Yankees cling to a slim lead in the series , leaving their roster mix fluid for now.
