The New York Yankees beat the Tampa Bay Rays 2-1 on Wednesday at Tropicana Field. Trent Grisham drove in two runs for the Yankees and that was enough to get the job done thanks to a strong showing by the Yankees' bullpen.
DJ LeMahieu, batting ninth in the order, went 0-for-2 at the plate and only reached base when he was hit by a pitch. Then to make matters worse, he hit a foul ball that bounced up and hit him in the throat. It was a play that was as rare as it was painful.
