CLEVELAND _ After blowing the three-run lead they took into the seventh inning Tuesday night in an eventual loss to Toronto, it seemed it would be a good long while before the Yankees topped that for worst loss of the season.
Cameron Maybin and Aaron Hicks saved them from topping it five days later.
After blowing all of the five-run lead built in the second inning, then Aroldis Chapman and Didi Gregorius teaming to blow a one-run edge in the bottom of the ninth, Hicks' RBI double brought in Maybin in the 10th to allow the Yankees to escape with a 7-6 victory over the Indians in front of 29,028 at Progressive Field.
