Jameson Taillon Pitches Five Scoreless Innings, Aroldis Chapman Blows Save, Clint Frazier , Aaron Judge, Tyler Wade Lead New York To Sweep Of The Chicago Whitesox
A lot went on in the finale of the three game series between New York, Chicago White Sox!
Some of it was pretty some of it wasn’t so pretty!
Where?
Bronx New York!
Jameson Taillon who started for New York scattered two hits, issued two walks and struck out four in the 80-pitch effort.
Jameson Taillon was backed early by Gleyber Torres, who laced a two-out, two-run single off Dallas Keuchel in the first inning.
New York’s third run scored in the fifth, as Gio Urshela bounced into a bases-loaded double play.
Though,
The game wasn’t all pretty!
Why?
Because New York had to comeback in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game as well as to sweep the Chicago White Sox!
Why?
Because New York’s closer Aroldis Chapman blew the save!
When?
In the top of the ninth inning!
How?
Aroldis Chapman allowed his first earned run of the year. Aroldis Chapman had converted each of his first 11 save chances before surrendering a pinch-hit opposite-field homer to rookie Andrew Vaughn.
After Aroldis Chapman blew the game in the top of the ninth Clint Frazier singled, then stole second on a strikeout. DJ LeMahieu was walked intentionally to bring up Tyler Wade, who beat out a soft grounder for an infield hit. Relieving Aaron Bummer, Hendriks lost Judge to a five-pitch walk, his final offering a fastball that sailed high out of the zone.
And New York topped the Chicago Whitesox by a score of 5-4!

Today New York has the day off before they open a three game series with Toronto in Bronx New York who like them is a member of the American League East.
Corey Kluber is going to start the game for New York!
Corey Kluber is going to be coming into the way with a record of
On May 19, 2021 Corey Kluber threw a no-hitter!
Verses who?
Texas!
Where?
Arlington Texas where he was supported offensively as well as defensively by Tyler Wade.
How?
In his first at-bat, Wade tripled to right-center field to bring home the game’s first run; he scored in the ensuing at-bat on a DJ LeMahieu sac fly.
Then in the bottom of the ninth, Wade darted to his left to snag a line drive and keep the no-hitter intact. The play was fairly routine -- David Dahl’s liner had a .160 expected batting average, per Statcast -- but it didn’t look that way in such a pressure-packed situation.

Who Corey Kluber is going to oppose in the opening game of the three game series has yet to have been announced.
Corey Kluber comes into the game with a record of 4-2 with an earn run average of 2.86.
Why?
Because Kluber threw the Yankees' first no-hitter since David Cone's 1999 perfect game in his last start, tossing 101 pitches in his gem over the Rangers in Arlington. The two-time Cy Young Award winner walked one and struck out nine in the effort.
