Pauley pulled a sweeper for a 5-4 lead and Xavier Edwards followed with a two-run single off Ryan Yarbrough through a drawn-in infield.<\/p>\n<p>John King (1-0) escaped a two-on jam in the seventh and Anthony Bender allowed Jazz Chisholm Jr.&#8217;s two-run double with two outs in the ninth before striking out pinch-hitter J.C. Escarra with two on for his second save.<\/p>\n<p>New York dropped to 7-2 while the Marlins (6-3) salvaged the finale of a three-game series.<\/p>\n<p>Yankees closer David Bednar (33 pitches on Saturday) and setup men Tim Hill and Brent Headrick (pitched Friday and Saturday) weren&#8217;t used.<\/p>\n<p>Miami was successful on 10 of 11 ABS challenges in the series before losing two in the ninth inning.<\/p>\n<p>New York was 2 for 12 with runners in scoring position, dropping to 6 for 38 in the series. The Yankees walked 30 times, two more than the previous franchise record for a three-game series set against the Chicago White Sox from May 10-12, 1934.<\/p>\n<p>Fried, who entered with 13 1\/3 scoreless innings, allowed three runs, five hits and three walks over 6 2\/3 innings.<\/p>\n<p>Ben Rice homered for the third time in four games, a three-run drive in the first off closer Pete Fairbanks, who made his first start since 2020 so he could head home for the birth of a child Monday.<\/p>\n<p>New York right-hander Luis Gil allowed three runs, four hits and four walks over 4 2\/3 innings for Triple-A Scranton\/Wilkes-Barre. He is expected to rejoin the Yankees for his next start.
