NEW YORK — Over the weekend the Yankees at last faced some adversity in this otherwise sterling early part of the 2022 season, an amalgam of issues – injuries, several players sidelined with COVID-like symptoms and Josh Donaldson’s mouth among them – causing it.
The result was the club’s first three-game losing streak of the season, and Tuesday night it nearly became four.
And it would have been if not for a two-homer night from Gleyber Torres, solo homer efforts by Anthony Rizzo and Jose Trevino, a key extra-inning single by Isiah Kiner-Falefa and, finally, Trevino’s walk-off RBI single in the 11th that lifted the Yankees to a 7-6 victory over the Orioles in front of 32,289 at the Stadium.
