Nice to see the Yankees win a playoff game, at least they won't be swept out. Of course, the Yankees sometimes win Game 1 and then go on to lose the series. Looking back I thought that happened more frequently then it did, but back-to-back in 2018 and 2019 I guess stuck in my mind.
As I thought, neither Cole nor Judge did well. But the bullpen was surprisingly effective, for the most part, and the bottom of the lineup came up the biggest, especially Alex Verdugo, their worst hitter all year. Hopefully those are the starts of trends rather than just a one-game fluke.
