Overview

• Chisholm made a diving stop in the seventh to keep the game tied, then worked a two-out walk in the eighth and scored from first on Austin Wells’ go-ahead single.
• A cited timer from historian Francys Romero clocked Chisholm’s first-to-home at 9.16 seconds, ranked among the fastest postseason marks of the past decade.
• Ben Rice opened the scoring with a two-run homer and Aaron Judge added an RBI single as New York leveled the best-of-three series.
• Carlos Rodón allowed three runs over six innings, and the bullpen held firm with Fernando Cruz, Devin Williams, and David Bednar finishing the win.
• Chisholm said he told Red Sox first baseman Nathaniel Lowe he planned to score before the play, and the Yankees now play Thursday for a spot against the Blue Jays with a chance to buck the trend of teams that lose Game 1 in this format.
