The win kept New York tied with the Toronto Blue Jays entering the final day of the regular season, though Toronto still holds the tiebreaker. Aaron Judge opened the scoring with a two-out solo shot in the first, his 10th home run of September and 53rd overall. Schlittler capped his rookie campaign with seven scoreless innings, striking out nine while allowing just two hits and one walk. His 2.96 ERA is the second-lowest by a Yankees rookie since 1981. With Sunday’s regular-season finale looming, the Yankees (93-68) need a win and a Blue Jays loss to overtake Toronto for the division crown and secure a first-round playoff bye.
