Frazier’s 1st walk-off deflates Crew

NEW YORK — Clint Frazier pulled a three-run homer off Corey Knebel with one out in the ninth, lifting the Yankees over the Brewers 5-3 for a walk-off bash in the Bronx on Saturday.

“We went wild,” teammate Aaron Judge said. “I went wild. I almost tripped over the rail.”

Frazier turned on a 97 mph fastball from Knebel (0-2) for his first game-ending hit and second career home run. Frazier also chased Brent Suter with an RBI triple in the seventh. He finished with a career-high three hits and four RBIs.

“I was really amped up,” Frazier said of the homer. “I was trying to make sure that I didn't go up there and take a big swing.”

Frazier, 22, is the youngest Yankee with a game-ending homer since 21-year-old Melky Cabrera on July 18, 2006.

“That’s a big win,” Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. “Clint’s at-bats all day were good, and to hit a three-run walk-off homer, we needed that.”

The Yankees ended a threegame slide and improved to 7-17 since going a season-best 15 games over. 500 on June 12.

Dellin Betances struck out two in a perfect eighth, and Aroldis Chapman (2-0) struck out the side in the ninth. Yankees pitchers combined for 15 strikeouts.

The NL Central-leading Brewers wasted an impressive showing by Suter, a 27-year-old Harvard graduate who has never reached 90 mph in the majors. They had won five in a row.

Suter didn’t allow a hit until Frazier’s two-out single in the fifth. He pitched two-hit ball for six shutout innings before the Yankees got to him for two runs with one out in the seventh.

Manager Craig Counsell said Suter will remain in the rotation after the All-Star break. This was just his fourth major-league start.
