Rizzo and Anthony Volpe each singled off the closer, and the shortstop then stole second. Rizzo scored when Brayan Rocchio botched an Alex Verdugo grounder, while Volpe crossed the plate on a Gleyber Torres single. Having blown a sizable lead themselves, the Yankees completed their own comeback when Tommy Kahnle worked around traffic in the ninth.

Lane Thomas, Pedro Avila and Andrew Walters had big nights for Cleveland in support of big boppers David Fry and Jhonkensy Noel.
