The New York Yankees survived a wild game against the Kansas City Royals on Saturday to take Game 1 of the American League Division Series.
The New York Yankees knocked off the Kansas City Royals, 6-5, in the opening game of the American League Division Series on Saturday, but it sure didn't come easily. It came historically, though. The Yankees have notched plenty of feats in the club’s illustrious history, but what happened Saturday was a first. It was the first postseason game in Major League Baseball history that had five lead changes, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
There is one cause for concern on the New York side, though. Despite his 58 homers, 144 RBI, .322 average, and 1.159 OPS, Judge went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts, lowering his lifetime postseason average to a meager .206 — he has struck out in more than one-third of his postseason plate appearances. New York also went 2-for-13 with runners in scoring position. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP The American League is off on Sunday, so both teams will be back on Monday for Game 2.
