They face sweden, their biggest challenge so far. Coverage is at 4 00. Here with are in the ninth. Clay holmes is on to pitch. Jose abreu is up in a 43 game. Strike one from holmes. John power sinker out of holmes. Youve seen the era on the year. Hard to get hits against him. Joe bouncing ball, left side. Easy one for kinerfalefa. One gone in the ninth. Theres one thing the yankees have done beautifully in recent years is find relievers that werent doing much wherever they were and turned them in to something special. No better than clay holmes. He had a 5. 57 era from the pirates. He takes over as the closer with chapman struggling. One away for mccormick. Upstairs. Ball one. John at what point do the pittsburgh fans get tired of hearing the pittsburgh pitchers that are around the league . Joe several years ago. Cole. Another one. Joe mccormick a base hit the other way. Tying run on board for the astros. John thats the approach. If youre going to hit a sinker ball and you want to have a reward to your name, thats how you do it. The only sinkers that get flat that are pulled, thats just classic mccormick. He sees that right side the entire way. Shoots it the other way. The one thing that opponents have not had much success against is the incredible breaking balls that slider that hes able to throw. Hu about a 120 average against . Thats pretty much joe diaz pinchhit here. Takes inside ball one. The astros getting to see a guy they want to see more, the rookie diaz. 13 home runs in limited duties. A life saver for the astros while alvarez was on the injured list. Pinchhitting for jake meyers. Got tied up there. One ball, one strike. A lot of astros fans would like him to be the every day catcher. Hes the catcher of the future. Its maldonados job right now. Doing their best to find him as many atbats as they can. Hes been really productive. 24yearold rookie. Swings and misses. 12. Thats 95. It moves a mile. John thats a gift. Thats set up down the middle and let it do what its got to do. You see that, you get one that bugs bunny turns it away from that sinker. 12 pitch. Fouled off. Joe they say this role is for strikeouts, swing and miss stuff. Dominant closers. You can get it done in a different way. You can be a dominant, beat the ball and let your defense do the work. I say pitch in more games per year. Joe ground ball here could end the game. Fouled again. Just barely gotten the piece of the last few to stay alive. Mccormick at first. 12 stolen bases this year in 13 tries. Holmes has limited the running game giving up one steal. After diaz, maldonado. Yankees four, astros 3, ninth inning. Homes delivers. Diaz fouls one more time. Diaz out of the dominic dominican republic. Got him in the myles straw strayed. Debuted last september. Breaking through on a significant role in 23. The seventh pitch from homes, lines one to short. Caught by volpe. Two gone in the ninth. And on a night where maldonado is 3 for 3, they will pinchhit for him with mauricio dubon. Altuve missed the first month plus. First chance dubon has had a chance to play every day. The 29yearold has had a solid year. Last hope for the astros. Ball one from holmes. He got squeezed there. Been consistent not giving the guys the bottom of the zone. The 10. Strike one. One of the most aggressive guys in the American League here, dubon. John the yankees are trying to go 464. Theyve had the lead going in to the eighth. Joe its been a relay race tonight. Four different relievers. Dubon off balance there. Throws the bat in the zone. Fouls it off. 12. From peralta to king to kahnle and now holmes. The 12 pitch. Now the 22. Count goes full. Tying run starts from first. How badly does houston want to get that man to the plate . Altuve is on deck. Dubon is such an aggressive swinger. Working the count full here. Some patient against holmes. Ball in the gap could tie the game. Soft bouncer. Left side. Wont be an easy play. Holmes has no play. Altuve comes up in the ninth. Infield hit for mauricio dubon. Goahead run aboard. Altuve coming up. John this is just unfortunate because of how soft he hit it. Being able to run it out. If youre holmes, i made the pitch. Now theyre going to go and talk about the guy at the plate, super aggressive. A great sinker away and youre out of the game. Talk about altuve and how dangerous he is on the first pitch. Anything middle in and this game will get extended. Joe nothing has been easy for these yankees this year. Tonight no different. A 43 game. Jose altuve gets a chance with two on in the ninth. Yankee nemesis. One of the greatest swings in this fantastic run for this franchise came against the yankees in the ninth inning in the alcs in 2019. The walk off against aroldis chapman. Tying run at second. Goahead run at first. First pitch from homes. Altuve pulls one to short. A bounce. Volpe has it. Throws to second and ends the game. The yankees get their second consecutive win. They take the opener against houston and theyre within 2 1 2 games of a playoff spot. So they gained a game on the blue jays today. They fall or the the orioles. The red sox were idle. The west looks like this. Houston a game back as texas wins today. The astros stillneck and neck with the rangers. John thats the formula for the yankees, score four, they win a lot. Score three, theyll be in every game. Counting on the bullpen to get it done. Aaron boone will rely on the bullpen, mix and match and shorten the game as much as possible. Joe 43 the final score. A game where the yankees never trailed. They get the winning run in the sixth on a base hit from anthony volpe. Well send you to the guys in l. A. For more postgame coverage. So long in new york. Baseball night in america postgame show. The yankees hold on and beat the astros 43 here with the d. Train, dontrelle willis, im kevin burkhardt. We said it all year, has to be somebody other than aaron judge. Giancarlo stanton got his foot down. Torres has two hits. Volpe has an rbi. They need to trust their depth and play their best baseball the next 1 1 2 months and get in to the postseason. If not, they will be going to cancun very early. If you believe in this staff, in this roster, they didnt get anybody so they tells them we have to do it. If not, theyll find Something Else that will. A day that they put Anthony Rizzo on the injured list. He has a concussion. And Ken Rosenthal has more. Anthony develop, two outs in the six. Harrison bader walks with you at the plate. What was your approach . I just wanted to stay within myself and have a good a. B. Its such a huge atbat. For him to be ready to go first pitch and thats what he does. Ken stanton, mckinney, back to back homers. Do you feel the offense is coming around . Yeah, we put together great atbats. Even facing a great pitcher. I thought our process has been good. Our atbats have been good. Its coming together. I mean, thats what these guys do. Theyre some of the best players in the world. Big g, that was a bomb. And billy behind him. So i dont think anyone in the dugout is surprised. Its nice to see everyones hard work coming around. Ken you guys are 2 1 2 games out in the wild card race. What is the feeling in the clubhouse about your chances . Were going to treat every day like it has a life of its own. Going to work hard to give our best for every day. Dont want to get too far ahead or too far in the past. Were pumped. Ken thanks very much. Back to you, kevin. He said it, 2 1 2 games out of the playoff spot. The rangers in first place. Marcus simian and the offense is a big reason why. Hes starting to barrel up the baseball. When hes healthy, the offense goes with him. Excitement for them. Scherzer debuted. Fantastic after the first. Yeah, found his release point and settled in nicely. Another pitcher making his debut, jack flaherty. He was great. I like this move especially for the 0s. You have a front line ace starter that can go against anybody. This will rejuvenate his career. One run, six innings for flaherty. 0s win a gain. Reds and cubs. Luke weaver, walks candelario. Brings in a run. David bell, not happy. Yeah. I like the call. When he comes out of the dugout, the hat comes off. He didnt like the call. A nice cold shower early on for him. Joe cubs are hot.

You were just watching the yankees beat the houston astros. All right. And our News Coverage continues tonight here on the seven. Here we go. Grammy Award Winning singer lizzo responding to a lawsuit filed by three of her former dancers. The dancers claim they were regularly subjected to a hostile work environment, including instances of alleged fat shaming sexual harassment, assault and discrimination. In a statement, lizzo said in part, quote, these last few days have been gut wrenchingly difficult and overwhelmingly disappointing. Usually i choose not to respond to false allegations, but these are as unbelievable as they sound and to outrageous to not be addressed, end quote. Earlier we spoke with tmzs harvey levin. He says a recent video is surfaced of one of the former dancers saying nothing but great things about lizzo. One of the women is on video. Her name is ariana davis. And she is singing lizzos praises and saying how she would like to be like lizzo. She calls her the queen and she says that it has been a beautiful, wonderful journey. So it is complete different from what shes alleging now. The dancers also allege instances of religious and racial harassment, disability discrimination and even false imprisonment. Lizzo says all of the allegations are false. All right. We have a preview now of an upcoming episode of sports focus. And we talked with the cif 2023 male scholar, athlete of the year. Thats just one of many titles that hes earned. Yeah he is a graduate of San Ramon Valley high school. He is now preparing to start his freshman year at uc davis, playing for the mens water polo team. Heres part of my conversation with tim kerr, who says he was inspired to play this sport as a kid because of his favorite superhero, aquaman. One day i was like, this water polo thing. What is it . You know, i want to i want to check it out. So i was able to sneak over to one of their practices and watch, and that was around the same age that, you know, i really liked superheroes and aquaman being a favorite. And so when i was watching, i was seeing these kids and swimming. Youre used to people just swimming in Straight Lines really fast, right . But in water pool, you need to be super mobile moving around. And so these people were sprinting up and down fast. Theyre getting their up to theyre like theyre out of the water. Theyre throwing the ball 30, 40 miles an hour. I was like, whoa, if i want to be like aquaman, this is what i need to be able to do. It so thats kind of where the love started. Ive been playing water polo since i was like seven years old. Ive always been super competitive and ive loved it a bunch. And so id say when i got to the age of around like 13 or 14 years old and i started playing up with some of the High School Kids and stuff, i started to see like, okay, like playing in college. Thats something thats a possibility for me. What is it about the game that you love . So water polo is a sport. Its a really hard sport. You know, we play in these 25 yard pools. You cant touch the bottom. Youre swimming, fighting for position constantly. And something that i really appreciate about water polo is that compared to a sport like basketball, for example, where youre super mobile in the water, the ball is going to move much faster than you are. So you need to make sure that youre ready for what position you need to be in by the time the ball gets there. So you need to be thinking ahead what is your role with the Special Olympics . How did you get involved and what kind of work do you do . So i originally got involved because when i was around in middle school, i was part of this National Charity organization that has a local chapter in my area called boys team charity, and it helps young boys find philanthropies like volunteer with different philanthropies that they can find a niche that they want to make a specific impact in. So one day i signed up for a Special Olympics and i absolutely loved it because the kids it was a track and field event and the kids were so competitive, so passionate trash talking each other about whose shoes were faster celebrating every time they finished and i saw these kids and i thought like, wow, like if i want to get to where i want to be as an athlete, i need to have the same confidence and passion that these kids do. And so that inspired me to really help them. And help expand the opportunities they have to compete in sports. What are your goals for your College Career and beyond . What is what are your hopes for the future . Gotcha. So for college, im entering as an Electrical Engineering major, and my goal with that obviously is to complete it and go become an electrical engineer. And its a tall task, but its something im really excited for because discipline and hard work, anythings possible. And water polo wise, of course, the goal we just went into a new conference, the big west conference, and the goal is for us to go become conference champs and then punch through and when the ncaa championship, what kind of message would you give to kids who are watching this . Maybe water polo, something theyd like to try or theyre just kind of not sure if they want to try sports in general. Do you have a message for kids . Um yeah. So like for me, sports or something that its so deeply important to me because a lot of the best friend , my best friends that ive made have come through sports because going and doing hard stuff like that sort of experience brings people together and on top of it, it teaches you what youre capable of so that when you go want to do other things that arent sports like i want to go be an engineer, it gives me that confidence knowing i can do hard things and it really inspires me. We wished him all the best in his future. Also, the as will. Their future is a little bit uncertain. Coming up, were going to talk live to a local expert, a reporter in vegas.
