  • Juan Soto struck out to end the top of the ninth. Guardians need two runs against Luke Weaver, who saves four-outs.

  • Yankees 5, Guardians 3

    A sacrifice fly from Kleiber Torres brings in Volpe, and Alex Verdugo moves to third. Next up: Juan Soto.

  • Eli Morgan comes to class and now comes out after knocking out Austin Wells. Andrew Walters takes over with two runners in scoring position and one out.

  • Whoa boy. It looked like the Guardians’ lead runner was out at third, but the run ended when Jose Ramirez lost the ball while trying to tag Anthony Volpe. Now the Yankees are out of runners at second and third and have a chance to add some insurance.

  • Weaver strikes Fry out, and the Guardians go down for their final three outs. That’s Jose Ramirez, Josh Naylor and Lane Thomas in the bottom of the ninth.

  • Tommy Conley strikes out at second, but walks Steven Kwan and then gets Hook. Luke Weaver comes in to face David Fry.

  • Well, there’s a double from Will Brennan. Defenders are tied in scoring position with one out.

  • A sliding catch by Daniel Schneemann eventually ends the inning, but the damage is done. Cleveland must bounce back or face a potential sweep on Friday.

  • Call confirmed. Bad timing for the Defenders, Claus has now allowed a single to Jazz Chisholm. Baseball’s best reliever didn’t strike out three batters.

  • Wow, now the Guardians are challenging that Stanton didn’t hit the first base homer.

  • Yankees 4, Guardians 3

    Emmanuel Glass allowed two home runs all regular season. He allowed back-to-back homers to Judge and Giancarlo Stanton. It was his third homer allowed in the postseason.

    The Yankees are suddenly six away from taking a 3-0 lead in the ALCS.

  • Yankees 3, Guardians 3

    Defenders may say they did the smart thing. Let’s just say they brought in their best guy. Can’t say it worked.

    After going up 0-2, Emmanuel Glass allows a game-tying home run to Aaron Judge. It’s a new ballgame in Cleveland, with a sweep on the horizon again

  • Cadiz walks Juan Soto, and Guardians manager Stephen Vogt actually brings Claus in to face Judge with two outs. This could be the game here.

  • Emmanuel Glass is already warming up in the bottom of the eighth. There’s a good chance he’ll come if Aaron Judge reaches the Caddy lineup.

  • Conley kept the seventh inning scoreless and now it was on to the Yankees offense with six outs remaining.

  • Tim Maiza lets the leadoff walk to David Fry and that ends his day. Tommy Conley comes in with one on and none out.

  • Herrin gets a flyout from Verdugo to end the frame. It looks like Hunter Gadis will be in eighth place.

  • Tim Herrin was one strike away from ending the inning after John Bertie’s double wiped out a leadoff walk, but Anthony Volpe extended the inning with a double. Alex Verdugo will try to bring him in now.

  • Quan was grounded out to end the inning. With the Yankees needing two more runs over the next three innings, Tim Herrin (dominant Guardians reliever No. 2) replaces Kate Smith.
