INNINGS
STAT OF THE DAY
Aaron Judge, who turned 26 on Thursday, walked twice to extend his streak of reaching base safely to 30 straight home games (since last Sept. 3), three shy of Mark Teixeira’s record at the new Stadium.
UNSUNG HERO
Dellin Betances struck out all three batters he faced in the top of the ninth. In his last four appearances, he has allowed zero earned runs with seven strikeouts over 3.1 innings.
Tyler Austin ripped a key three-run homer one night earlier, his third long ball in four games, but he struck out three times on Thursday. Austin will start a reduced fourgame suspension on Friday against the Angels.
