Good morning, Mets fans!
ALDS action continued on Tuesday, with the Mariners and Yankees both coming away with big wins.
The Mariners scraped together an 8‑4 win over the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday to take a 2-1 series lead. Logan Gilbert allowed just one run over six innings and Jack Flaherty could not make it through four for Detroit. Cal Raleigh, Eugenio Suarez and J.P. Crawford each swatted a home run for Seattle.
The Yankees rallied for a 9‑6 win over the Blue Jays. They stayed alive in the series, still down 2-1. Trailing 6‑3 in the fourth, Aaron Judge launched a three-run homer off the foul pole to tie the game. An inning later, Jazz Chisholm Jr. added a solo homer to put New York ahead, and the Yankees never looked back.
All four division series are in action Wednesday.
