NEW YORK — The Orioles aren’t the pushovers they used to be. But the Yankees were up for the battle against the improved O’s on Tuesday night in the Bronx.
Aaron Judge hit a game-tying solo home run with one out in the ninth and Anthony Volpe scored ghost runner/pinch-runner Isiah Kiner-Falefa with a one-out sacrifice fly to deep center in the 10th as the Yankees won their fifth in a row, 6-5, before 40,652.
Michael King (1-1), in his second inning of work, stranded the ghost runner in the top of the 10th by striking out a pair and getting Adam Frazier to line out to a leaping Volpe.
