In a rain-delayed game, the New York Yankees defeated the Atlanta Braves 3-2, with Ben Rice hitting a tying single in the ninth and Ryan McMahon delivering a game-winning sacrifice fly in the tenth. Yankees pitchers Max Fried and Tyler Mahle both threw six scoreless innings, while Austin Riley and Matt Olson homered for the Braves. New York’s rally started with George Lombard Jr.’s infield single and culminated in McMahon’s fly ball that scored the winning run. The game featured a notable matchup of former Braves pitcher Fried, who signed with the Yankees, and is set to face Cy Young winner Gerrit Cole next.
